Eurovision Song Contest 2018

The Eurovision Song Contest 2018, or short Eurovision 2018, will be the 63rd edition of the annual Eurovision Song Contest. It will take place for the first time in Portugal following the country's first victory at the 2017 contest in Kiev, Ukraine.


Portugal

The contest will take place for the first time in Portugal, following the country's victory in the 2017 edition with the song "Amar pelos dois", performed by Salvador Sobral. The contest will be held at the Altice Arena in Lisbon and will consist of two semi-finals on 8 and 10 May and a final on 12 May 2018.



Hosts

The three live shows will be hosted by Filomena Cautela, Sílvia Alberto, Daniela Ruah and Catarina Furtado.




Participating countries

Forty-three countries will participate in the contest, equaling the record of the 2008 and 2011 editions. Russia will return after their absence from the previous edition, and for the first time since 2011, no country will be withdrawing from the contest.


green = Participating countries
orange = Countries that participated in the past but not in 2018


Voting system

Each country awards two sets of 12, 10, 8–1 points to their 10 favorite songs: one from their professional jury and the other from televoting.

I was in elementary school (maybe highschool) when that show was aired XDDDD

nostalgia uppercut! XDDD

p.s. was Ivette that brown haired waitress? or was she Michelle... Helga also had that something that made tingling imagination.. or was puberty at fault, don't really remember XD
2018-04-24 15:44:54

Yvette was the taller waitress, Maria the small one.
Michelle is the resistance girl. And yes, Helga does like showing her legs :p
2018-04-24 16:01:39
aaaa yes! MIshelle was that overcoat resistance girl, now I remember!

"you stupid woomaaan! can't you see this poor girl needs help"
- renee telling his wife (can't remember name for the life of me) while he pulls out his "junk" from out of Yvette (maybe not quite but you catch the meaning)

"you silly bat"
"It is I, Leclerc!!!" hahahahhahahahaha, I use that one to this day XDDDDD
"Lieutenant Gruber and his little tank"

hey, I recently found out that renee was gay :O..
2018-04-24 16:10:05
His wife was Edith.
Best part so far (forgot most of it) after 2 seasons rewatching is Rene "being executed" and return as his twin brother, also called Rene. then he has to court his wife to remarry in order to get his cafe back and ends up in a duel with the undertaker from which he runs with the coal kit around his chest :D

China’s Mango TV loses Eurovision broadcasting rights after censoring Ireland and Albania

Eurovision fans in China will no longer be able to watch any Eurovision shows, effective immediately. That’s after the EBU withdrew the broadcasting rights of Chinese broadcaster Mango TV after it censored Semi-Final 1 of Eurovision 2018.

The Chinese network refused to air Ireland’s performance because it included two male dancers portraying a gay couple. It also blocked Albania’s performance because of the visible tattoos on singer Eugent Bushpepa.

Also rainbow flags are blurred.

Very good action against China's censorship. Unfortunately it won't change any public opinion in China this way, but it is a good statement and most probably the only thing that can be done. The Chinese people will ofcourse get a different explanation, or nothing at all.

Eurovision is about diversity and acceptance.

So.. if you're going to censor gay people and rainbow flags, why broadcast the ESC in the first place?
