Very soon the famous Eurovision Song Contest will be held. On the eve of this grand event we recall the most disastrous and ridiculous performances of the contestants.
So, the 10 most shocking and ridiculous performances that took place at the famous competition.
Ping Pong - Sa'me'yakh
In 2000, the Ping Pong band represented Israel at the contest with a song about the unhappy love of an Israeli girl and a Syrian guy who were prevented from being together political differences between their countries. In the video for the song, members of the band waved Syrian and Israeli flags, than they set up against their own compatriots. In addition, the number was a failure: an absurd staging, inaccurate hairstyles, inappropriate costumes, weak vocals brought Ping Pong 22nd place out of 24. After this performance in their homeland, the band members became outcasts.
Jemini - Cry Baby
The British duet Jemini acquired the fame of Herostratus, thanks to its nightmarish performance at Eurovision-2003. Their song took the last place without scoring any points. The reason for failure is "false" performance and not falling into notes. In general, if you take care of your ears, better do not watch this video!
Dustin The Turkey - Irelande Douze Pointe
In 2008, Ireland decided to co-authorize and, as an artist, sent to the competition its national hero - the puppet turkey Dustin. Although the bird insistently demanded the award of Ireland (the title of the song translates as "12 points of Ireland"), the country took only 15th place.
LT United - We are The Winners
This is one of the strangest numbers in the history of the contest. Six of the overweight men from Lithuania throughout the speech shouted into the microphones: "We are the winners of the Eurovision!", And one of them was very ridiculously moving. Although some critics found the idea ingenious and witty, the winners of LT United did not.
Kreisiraadio - Leto Svet
Participants of the humorous trio from Estonia, apparently, hoped that viewers would tear their bellies during their number, but the band's performance aroused only bewilderment, and the song took the penultimate place. However, in Estonia this result was called expected, because the humor of the team is not always clear to the Estonians themselves, what can we say about the rest of Europe!
Donatan & Cleo - My Slowianie
Many considered the performance of this Polish group as vulgar and "semi-pornographic". However, some people liked it very much. See for yourself!
Sestre - Samo Ljubezen
A trio of transvestites from Slovenia performed at Eurovision in 2002 in suits for flight attendants. The number did not cause the desired excitement, especially the inhabitants of Slovenia themselves were unhappy that their country was represented by men dressed in women.
Krasimir Avramov - Illusion
In 2009 Krasimir Avramov represented Bulgaria at the competition and took 16th place. The performance was deemed unsuccessful, and quite deserved. At times the vocals in this song become simply unbearable and reminds howls of hungry beasts.
Michalis Rakintzis - SAGAPO
In 2002, Greece sent to the competition some strange men who danced an incomprehensible dance and performed the same incomprehensible song.
No Angels - Dissappear
The German No Angels trio was very popular in their homeland and, sending them to the competition, Germany hoped to take one of the first positions. However, the girls were only on the 23rd (pre-last) place, gaining 14 points, two of which were given by Switzerland, and 12 - by Bulgaria, and only because one of the participants of the collective was of Bulgarian origin. All the fault - the nervousness of the participants. The girls were too worried, and the number turned out to be chaotic and ridiculous.
