The Campest Show on Earth came to a new high this year!
The Slovenian entry was a drag act!
Oh yes,
three large men in sparkling red air hostess (i don’t think “cabin crew” is really in the spirit of the thing) costumes, with 3 backing singers, dressed in white Top Gun costumes.
Spectacular.
But there was more!
The winning Latvian entry had a woman in a fedora and pinstriped suit singing a latin number and dancing a tango with another woman.
The singer then stripped to reveal a low-cut red dress.
Yet again, Fantastic!
The FYR Macedonia had a woman in a lovely, formal, full-skirted evening dress whip it off to reveal a vast skirt made of red netting…and a gold Xena style breast plate…with VERY large breasts.
Bravo!
Also, the Cypriots had boys in leather, the Greeks had Borg style outfits, and the Maltese woman wore a cream lace catsuit
Life doesn’t get better than this!
Really!
It hasn’t been this much fun since Dana Internationale won…there’s nothing like an Isreali transsexual to give the proceedings an air of class.
To all those who have no idea what I’m talking about, it’s a big event where all the countries in Europe send in an act to represent them. They then vote for the best song, and that country hosts the contest the next year. It’s watched by millions, with millions voting by telephone for the winner.
Voting is either totally random, or along national lines of allegiance. Latvia votes for Estonia, Greece for Cyprus, Norway for Finnland, Russia for Romania etc etc.
It gave the world ABBA, and Riverdance was originally an interval act for an Irish-hosted contest.
You don’t know what you’re missing!
