The World Gets Weird (And Absurd) with This Year’s Eurovision
We’re ending this week with the hottest take of them all: Eurovision. The international song competition is Saturday at 3pm ET on Peacock, and guess what? It’s going to be weird. In fact, the countries in the Grand Finale seem to have a focus on over-the-top performances, lots of pyrotechnics and so much more. I might even go as far to say this year’s Eurovision might be the weirdest in recent memory.
Let’s be real, for many Americans, the name Eurovision likely makes them think of some high-end eyeglass shop, but I encourage you to give it a whirl, it’s lots of fun.
Of the 26 countries competing for the Grand Finale prize, the favorites to win include Netherlands, Spain, Ukraine, Italy, Croatia, France, Estonia, and Austria.
You can listen to my full breakdown of this year’s Eurovision and more on H. Alan Scott’s Hot Take, an audio exclusive for subscribers. So go subscribe to Newsweek to get those episodes every Monday and Friday.
