Finland 2024: Windows95man ‘nude underwear’ allowed

The European Broadcasting Union (EBU) has allowed Windows95man to wear their “nude underwear” during their performance.

For his UMK performance of “No Rules”, Windows95man wore underwear that created an illusion of nudity.  However, it was not clear if he would be allowed to keep his performance as intended for Eurovision 2024.  For instance, during his winning performance in Finland, Windows95man wears a t-shirt with the Microsoft Windows 95 Operating System logo.  The logo is now blurred following Eurovision rules on product brands.

Although there was no problem in Finland, there was concern that Windows95man’s performance would not meet the standards of other European broadcasters with stricter rules about the type of content shown on TV before 9 pm (The Eurovision Song Contest airs at 8 pm in some participating countries).

The outfit of Windows95man has been the subject of debate regarding apparent double standards on what could be considered an “indecent performance” and acceptable nudity.  For instance, female representatives have performed with revealing outfits without being considered problematic.

Windows95man will perform in the First Semifinal of the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 in Malmö
