Eurovision!

Eurovision is an annual singing competition held among countries of the European Broadcasting Union. It works like American Idol in the sense that you vote from home for your favorite performance. All of the contenders however, had won different national singing competitions. It is the cream of the reality show crop! If I had to choose a contender from the United States, Carrie Underwood would get my vote.

The UK came in last, whomp whomp. The winner, GERMANY! She was my favorite, but I did not think she would win because a lot of the other singers were much more theatrical.

So see for yourself:
The Winner, Germany -

To show a little theatricality (and AMAZING interpretive dance)-


When watching this I thought of Erich and Josh, this is a DIVA -


YOU MUST WATCH THIS ONE:
At least go to 1:10...the man that is in a red hat, is not a part of the performance. He had crawled up onto stage and just joined in.


Basically this was an amazing show and I am a little bummed that the US cannot participate.

On a final and different "note," why does the US not care about the world cup. Here it is, the biggest thing since Sex and the City 2, not. The World Cup is the Super Bowl on Steroids - and America does not even blink. At least we care about the Olympics.
