Eurovision Song Contest: Dutch contestant Joost Klein disqualified

”The performer has been sent home after an allegation of intimidation was made to Swedish police by a female member of the production crew.

In a statement, the contest organisers said "it would not be appropriate for him to continue in the contest" while the legal process takes place.”

@rolle Online, fans are rioting about this. I'm sad not to see Europapa participate.

But.

Were this a disliked act, even just a minor member of the delegation, that was accused of intimidating a production crew member on a level that led to police investigating... these same people would be calling for blood and saying it's an underreaction to "just" disqualify.

Because it's a fan favorite, this is injustice, hearsay, and "fabricated". When we don't even know the details.

@anotherdream @rolle Not knowing the details is what has me upset -- this might be completely justified or it might just be a case of an entitled artist being an entitled artist and complaining that a set-piece wasn't placed properly. I just don't know.
