Eurovision is coming this weekend. I am terribly excited about it.
It should be fun. There will be drinks. I will also be wearing a dreadful Bier Frau costume. (Dusseldorf is this year's host.) Oh, yes, it is true!

Eurovision is a wonderfully cheesy event that combines talent(?), political voting and pagentry. The main rule of Eurovision is that songs cannot be political in nature.

Glorious!

Two sets of identical twins in the competition this year, Jedward from Ireland and Twiins from Slovakia. YAY!

Oh, and the hunk in the photo is Amaury Vassili, representing France by singing Italian opera.
