The Netherlands: Joost Klein is thinking of suing the EBU!

Joost Klein is considering filing a defamation lawsuit against Eurovision organizer the European Broadcasting Union (EBU). The singer’s manager has already contacted the lawyer Gerard Spong.

The news comes a day after AvroTros had indicated that it did not want to press charges.  The lawyer wrote that it is “absolutely a defamatory allegation” that the EBU, despite the fact that according to the Swedish Public Prosecutor’s Office there is no or insufficient evidence, continues to insist that Joost Klein “would have committed an act worthy of disqualification”.

The fact that AvroTros doesn’t want to create an issue is a sign of weakness according to Spong.

“They must have their reasons for it. They may also have to continue with the EBU next year, so maybe they think: we shouldn’t have any. I think it’s weak.”

“Joost is the right person to file a police report. I’ve been called by Joost’s manager and we’re going to think about it.”

Joost Klein and the camerawoman answer to the decision of the Swedish police!

With yesterday’s announcement made by the Swedish police, one of the issues that marked Eurovision 2024 negatively for many fans, has officially come to an end. Of course, we are talking about the disqualification of Joost Klein from the final of Eurovision 2024.

After the police investigations, yesterday’s announcement stated that Joost Klein will not be prosecuted for the incident at this year’s Eurovision due to a lack of evidence.

A few hours ago Joost Klein himself, spoke about the whole issue for the first time, with an Instagram post:

A post shared by Joost Klein (@joostklein)

“The last couple of months were terrible. Even though I love to perform anywhere around the world, something didn’t feel right. Why did we have to wait so long for an answer? Everyday I felt insecure whilst I knew the truth. There is no case against me, because there never was a case.

We should all take care for each other, we should all support each other and we should ALL come together. Companies just want to protect their money and they tried to use me as a shield. A village against the city…

Guess what? LOVE ALWAYS WINS. TRUST THE PROCESS!!!!! EVEN THOUGH I LOST ALL HOPE WE BACK NOW BABY!!! ALBUM MODE!!!!!!!”

At the same time, the camerwoman spoke through her lawyer, Kristoffer Ståhl, about the decision of the police, and indicated that she is thinking of taking further legal actions, in order to be vindicated:

“My client is very saddened by the decision and is considering whether she wants to challenge the decision. She came to Malmö to do her work in a special place where music, inclusion and diversity are central. What happened to her was unexpected and very traumatic. She now has to deal with the consequences of that incident, unfortunately.” 

Lawyer Ståhl adds in his statement that there was no agreement that “the Dutch artist” would not be filmed after his appearance. “My client wants to state clearly that she did not pay more or less attention to the Dutch artist than to other candidates of the festival,” she says.

However, the woman praised the EBU for the way the organization “put the mental and physical safety of its workers first”.

We now await with great interest the reaction of the Dutch public broadcaster, and whether it will participate or not in Eurovision 2025 next May in Switzerland.

The Netherlands: The prosecution of Joost Klein stopped due to lack of evidence!

Joost Klein will not be prosecuted for the incident at this year’s Eurovision due to a lack of evidence.

The investigation into Joost Klein and the incident that happened at the Eurovision Song Contest has been discontinued. The Swedish public prosecutor’s office says there is a lack of evidence. This means that Joost Klein will not be prosecuted.

The Swedish public prosecutor writes that the investigation into a 26-year-old man who allegedly threatened a woman has been closed. The investigation shows that Klein made a motion that hit the camera. According to the prosecutor, the incident happened quickly, and Klein’s and the camerawoman’s stories differ. Therefore, it is not possible to know exactly what happened.

In his statement, prosecutor Fredrik Jönsson said:

“Today, the investigation closes because it cannot be proven that the act caused real fear and that this was the intention of the man”

Dutch witnesses were also heard on the case. Last month it was announced that the Dutch public prosecutor’s office had reported this to the Swedish public prosecution service.

Joost Klein was disqualified from the Eurovision Song Contest last May because of the incident. The singer qualified for the final on behalf of the Netherlands with the song “Europapa”. On the day of the final, it became clear that Joost Klein was not welcome on the Eurovision stage that night. The decision angered AVROTROS, the Dutch broadcaster responsible for the Eurovision Song Contest.

Klein himself has yet to share his side of the story with the media following the incident. AVROTROS has expressed doubts about participating in the Eurovision Song Contest if the organizer European Broadcasting Union (EBU) does not make any changes to its policy. Several delegations complained of an unpleasant atmosphere behind the scenes at this year’s Eurovision Song Contest

Nemo: They will perform in Ukraine in the context of their European tour!

The winners of the Eurovision Song Contest 2024, Nemo, will visit Ukraine for the first time to perform an exclusive program. It will take place as part of a European tour in early spring.

MUZVAR reports that it was announced during the Atlas United festival. The show is to take place at the Atlas concert hall on March 7, 2025.

“From the stage of the Atlas United festival, we announced that the winners of the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 Nemo will give a concert in Kyiv. The show will take place at the Atlas club in spring. In addition to their own tracks, Nemo are intrigued by a joint track with alyona alyona and Jerry Heil, which will be presented at the concert too,”

However, the artists haven’t commented on this yet, and their official tour schedule doesn’t include Ukraine. Moreover, it starts in Cologne, Germany, on March 16. On June 12, Nemo published a schedule of upcoming concerts in Europe and noted that they were working on visiting Greece and Ukraine.

Ticket sales are already available on Ukrainian booking services, and prices start from 1300 to 5000 hryvnias.

It is known that Nemo promised to come to Ukraine during the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 in Malmö, Sweden. In particular, they built a very warm relationship with the Ukrainian representatives Jerry Heil and alyona alyona. They went to breakfast together and created covers. Nemo expressed admiration for the Ukrainian women even during the Eurovision 2024 preparations.

“I can’t believe it! I am a fan of yours. You have touched my heart,”

A possible collaboration between Nemo and Jerry Heil and alyona alyona exists only in the form of rumors. Back at the opening of the music show in Malmö, they commented on the trio’s future.

“Who knows, maybe we’ll do something. We don’t know, maybe we’ll create something.”

Malta: Was Saba’s “Sand” one of Emma Muscat’s candidate songs for Eurovision 2022!

According to the latest news, “Sand”, the song with which Saba represented Denmark this year, at Eurovision 2024, travelled a long way until it ended up on the stage of the Contest.

According to the Danish website Eurosong-DK, it seems that “Sand” was one of Emma Muscat’s candidate songs for Eurovision 2022.

We remind you that Emma Muscat won MESC 2022, the national final of Malta, with the song “Out of Sight”, however immediately after her victory, the search for a replacement song began, as read first from Eurovisionfun.

The final choice seems to have been made between “Sand” and the song that in the end represented Malta that year, “I Am What I Am”. Malta got 16th place in the second semi-final of 2022, while this year Denmark placed 12th.
