Why did the UK come second from bottom in Eurovision?

[purplepoppy]

God that was painful to watch, if she was a busker she'd starve to death. The puppet dancers just accentuated how wooden her performance was. One minute of her singing is the equivalent of a 5 hours of kids singing "The Wheels on the Bus Go Round and Round” and "Stop the bus I want a wee wee".

But why do you think the UK crashed and burned?
Is it time the individual UK countries competed separately as in sports events so England doesn't drag us down?

I blame Brexit everyone hates us boo hoo

Maes Muller sings like a tired drunk doing karaoke

It wasn't a proper eurovision style song

The song was too whinny

The staging and dancing were shit

She isn't exactly eye candy

A total of 16 votes were cast: 6 girls and 10 guys. See detailed results

When I found out Mae was going to do a performance, I DM'd her on Instagram the lyrics to my new song. Maybe if she had collaborated with me, she would have won. I bet she regrets it now.

Boobslayer loves them, they make him proud,
He says no one can touch the curves that abound,
His girlfriend went through a journey of mental health,
He wrote this song on ChatGPT instead.

Boobs! Boobs! Boobs! Everywhere
On my mind, out of my head, I just don't care
My world revolves around them, so happy I am,
Living life so full and grand

He grabbed his phone and started up a tune
ChatGPT came and added a happy balloon
His love for boobs gave him courage and strength,
To help his girl work on her mental health.

Boobs! Boobs! Boobs! Everywhere
On my mind, out of my head, I just don't care
My world revolves around them, so happy I am,
Living life so full and grand

So come around if you're feeling down,
Boobslayer's songs will lift you off the ground
His love for them made a perfect plan,
Let's all sing along and take a stand.

Boobs! Boobs! Boobs! Everywhere
On my mind, out of my head, I just don't care
My world revolves around them, so happy I am,
Living life so full and grand

The whole competition was just disgraceful, bitches hiding behind cheap lights and props with no pipes whatsoever, I bet I could sing through my ass better than the winning bitch. She was just bitch as awful. As for the Uk bitch , that was a teenybopper trash pop song she sang and not a competition hair-raising stand up and deliver song. I bet I can pick up any 8 to 10 year old girl from Harlem who would just blow that bitch to outer space. I just think it's the general reflection of the pessimistic mood in Britain right now. By the next one they should hopefully be fine. I don't think like sports you could make a case for separate entries, since the London area just has too much of an advantage talentwise, the others would be just too much of a mis-match apart from some folksy Celtic stuff which again would not be competition material.

Never forget, Eurovision contest isn't about music. It's about the message.
Next time send an obese black trans woman who belongs to the tribe of chosen ones, if you want your country wins.

My favourite Eurovision winner was Ireland with my lovely horse.

[purplepoppy]

Wasn't that the year Ireland won it the 50th time

I just find it funny that Isreal and Uk performances were very much alike yet one got so much likes compared. But anyway as always it's rigged of course multiple countries in a row voted for Sweden and you could bet beforehand that would be there answer.

I didn't watch it, but read the reports. My mum says it was crap, too. Staging and wide shots lost so much detail.

[AngryCarl2]

So to be clear I didn't watch any of it but according to reports the staging and dancing were shit so I'm going with that. Maybe the dudes in see-through blouses didn't help garner votes from the Balkan states?

[weysally]

because it was the bloody worse of a sorry bunch of so-called singers

[whereismyjohnny]

Thanks for reminding me of that awful performance 🥴😆 so bad and cringe 😐

[LemiaOfThunder]

I'm guessing it wasn't due to the proformance if we had won or come second and Ukraine had won it would be repeat of this year and counties wanted to be closer to home

[chicken_nugget24]

I picked the stage and dancing was shit but let's be honest, it was all horrible. I only liked her outfit and was happy when that car crash was over 😂

[jshm2]

The UK like Israel needs to be more of a bitch so people are sympathetic to the "plight". the quality of the performance is irrelevant

[Avicenna]

Nah, then you'd have four awful entries rather than just one...

[jamesgoldman]

Because who'd heard of her for a start, I sure hadn't

[astrophelle]

Sorry 🇬🇧 you really suck. 😹😹

[EricSummer]

Because the Germans were still worse.

[blissinanarchy1]

Ceri. I need to talk to you

[Anonymous]

The UK sucks.
