Because I suck (Mandy has actually tried to revive the blog! She's getting a cake later. Carrot cake. I'm pretty sure she doesn't like it, so more for me -nods-) the latest news have been ignored. GASP! I know, I know. But here's a nifty little recap of what has happened for the past week or so;
-
The Netherlands won Junior Eurovision Song Contest. It seems pretty impossible, doesn't it? A western country winning JESC which is about ten times worse than ESC in regards of neighbourvoting? Ralf won with the song Click Clack which is incredibly catchy if you ask me. 'Listen to it on YouTube five times a day for the past week' catchy. Belgium came in 4th, even though it was a hot hot hot favorite for the win (or was it? On forums it was. Apparently yodeling (how the hell to you spell that anyway?) done by a little girl is a recipe for success). Russia and Armenia came in joint second place. We're not surprised, at all. Mega big thanks for Macedonia for only giving Armenia 1 point!! It made my evening, really.

Belgium chose their artist. Some dude named Tom Dice (HAHAHAHA, epic name!) who's an X-factor reject who will definitely qualify to the final in Oslo because thats the jury's big task in the semi-finals, bringing back loser countries such as Belgium, Switzerland and The Netherlands to the final. Too bad Andorra wont take part, we would've seen the tiny nation take part in the final for the first time!

Belarus' I-have-no-idea-if-we-should-call-it-a-NF contest has continued. To be honest I have no idea what it's all about. It seems to be a way to make people feel like they're actually helping Belarus choosing an entry for ESC? Even though the president will re-do the NF if he doesn't like the winning song. You've gotta love dictators!

Oh, and MGP Nordic took place yesterday. Personally I didn't watch it, personally I don't care and personally I think it's a waste of money. Apparently a Swede won though, yay for that! See, this is just a warm up for Oslo next year. GOOOO DARIN!
And that's about it really, I'll do better with updates from now on. Sort of.
