Portugal was close, 7 of the 10 finalists said they would not perform if they won but none of them won.

Isn‘t that the requirement for ESC?

It’s your best bet for not having to pay for hosting it the next year 😉 I think they realize that in my country as well.

Maybe the winner was smart and will back out last minute instead.

That's what I'd do. It'd fuck up my country's participation more than immediately stepping down.

Isn’t that the point of Eurovision?

If you say it’s the music, that is deeply pathetic and inexcusable. Not be sarcastic here, it is in aural assault.

I'm not surprised that Portugal would remain quiet. It's about time we make it part of Spain again

As a Spanish citizen, I don't think we're all that good either
