   At a friend's place where we are BOTH wearing our Måneskin concert tees to watch the #Eurovision finals and singing along to "Hooked On A Feelin'" like completely normal people.

     We've decided the theme for this year's #Eurovision costumes is "pants-optional". Viva les butt cheeks!

     #Italy's dancers are only wearing pants on one leg each, so I think that still counts.

     FUCKING #FINLAND LITERALLY NOT WEARING ANY PANTS! 🤣🤣🤣 Very strategically placed camera work to hide the peen. "Naked Weird Al Yankovic" LMFAO. Now fireworks flying out of his jorts?!

     And #Portugal has to follow THAT, hiding almost as much skin as possible. Her costume is pretty gorgeous, honestly.

     I love how Latvians are all plural with their names. Dons. Daniels. Olivers. This guy looked like he maybe regretted that blue plastic chest plate in the opening, but his voice is great. This song makes me feel a bit weepy. #Latvia

     #Greece comes out very high-pitched. Not a fan of her spaceman-diaper shorts outfit thing. The shin-guard boots are cool, though.

     #UnitedKingdom has an appreciation of jock straps and locker room shower hookups. Song is ok but dancing is good.

     Dang, this performance by #Lithuania has a great beat. His nose bracket piercing (?) looks neat, too.

     Here's his music video:

     #Spain's lead singer and those lace tights she's wearing are giving me "Cher showing off her butt tattoos on a navy ship" vibes. The beefy male dancers in fishnets and high heel knee high boots are amazing. And finger hearts! 😍

     #Estonia jamming on those rustic lap harps (???) is just random enough to make me grin. And this deep death-metal singing next to Rockette-esque kicky dancing is fire!

     #Ireland is fucking terrifying in a goth-y pagan ritual kind of way. TRANS FLAG BIKINI! 🤩

     #Sweden's performers are identical twin brothers performing a decent dance music song. Not bad.

     Ukraine's look is very Jean d'Arc, with a flowy dress and medieval shoulder armor... I did NOT expect #Ukraine to be *rapping*. Wow. That's cool!

     I like the growly voice effects of #Germany's singer. And different color nail polish!

     Oooh I really like this #Luxembourg song and performance. Reminds me of Shakira. My favorite so far.

     Oh, cool! The Switzerland act came out on stage with a huge non-binary flag!

     @JillsJoy Celine Dion isn't actually from Switzerland, as far as I know. She just sang the Swiss entry one year.

     #Armenia is fun and upbeat. The singer lady has so much fun charisma. I think I love her. This might be my favorite now so far.

     #Cyprus gives me 90s Celine Dion/Sporty Spice vibes? Pretty good.

     Wait, Celine Dion is from #Switzerland?! I always thought she was French Canadian. Ah, Nemo is the person who brought the non-binary flag! Nemo's outfit is such a fun peachy-pink and fluffy. (Nemo's pronoun is "Nemo".) I liked that song.

     Ripping off skirts counts as "pants optional."

     #Slovenia going hard with another Cher-esque see-through body suit. That even changes colors! Cool!

     #Croatia's performer is named "Baby Lasagna" and they sing metal in white lace? Here for it! 🤘🏻 Kinda pirate-y and singing about pretty boys and anxiety? OK, maybe these guys are my new favorite... Even if they had pants on.

     I like #Georgia's flag for some reason. Marge Simpson voice: I just think it's neat. This fire choreography is 🔥🔥🔥 The male dancers outfits showing off biceps. 😍

     #France is ... not my favorite. I sing more on key than that guy.

     #Austria is channeling Madonna in her high-ponytail silver domme costume. Butt cheeks! Fun.

     #Eurovision

     And so ends my first ever Eurovision watch. Amazing.
