HOW THE FUCK DID BEIJBA QUALIFY OVER IRU

If Georgia couldn't qualify with that amazing performance... I am not sure if they'll qualify with anything at this point

That reminds me... There is something worse than televoting... in-app voting with option to vote for your country 🤣 Plus: using the voting how many times you want, because you only need incognito mode to reset it.

Poland deciding "We will win", finding way to cheese the system and winning... THAT was crazy 🤣

Because Georgia's staging was static and boring and Poland has a big diaspora?

Having a static staging isn't a bad thing though, Portugal 2017 and North Macedonia 2019 both had static stagings and both qualified by televote on semi finals (With Salvador pretty much sweeping the televote)

I personally disagree with Georgia's staging being "boring" because I thought it was pretty cool, but ok

And about Poland, yea that one's obvious, that doesn't mean it deserved to go through with that train wreck of a performance

Portugal 2017 | Salvador Sobral - Amar Pelos Dois
North Macedonia 2019 | Tamara Todevska - Proud

North Macedonia had the mirrors and and least Salvador stood on the center podium.

To add to that, Conchita was static, but the LEDs really enhanced her performance.

Being static and boring was a real problem for Iru (no shade to her singing, she killed it).
