Belarus BELARUS 2019 - ZENA - Like It

[Iker]

I was quietly hoping for her qualifying but when I heard "Belarus" as a qualifier I immediately thought that one of my actual top faves is going to stay in the SF, so it was bittersweet as it turned out to be Portugal.

 

[Milos-BC]

A negative surprise for me. Didn't like it at all + the performance was messy.


As a performer though, she did a good job.

 

[vavera4ka]

Performing 19th... Belarus 2nd best finish incoming!

 

[Alaska49]

YES WE GONNA LIKE IT so glad she qualified SLAY

 

[Realest]

Hope she beats Cyprus.

 

[Franco]

Zena out-Cyprus-ed Cyprus

That's what I thought, too.
She did a good job.

Zena has more attitude and energy than Tamta and Michela combined imo. And her song is probably my favourite out of all the in-your-face upbeat pop entries this year.

Unfortunately, Belarus is more likely to be marked down by juries than Cyprus and Malta, but I hope televoters will right that wrong.

 

[Citelis]

She is a great performer. The song is not the best but she will do well on televoting.

 

[Franzilein]

Those were some of the weirdest jury voting results I've ever seen... so many points for the bottom tiers (Israel, Estonia, Spain, Germany, San Marino, UK...). What were they smoking?

 

[watersoup]

The Belarus jury was expelled for leaking their semi-final votes. I have no idea how they came up with the jury votes for the final.

 

[Realest]

She was robbed

But thank God the Juries saved her.


Btw. The EBU decided belarussian Jurypoints. Probably they ddistributed them, so that nothing in the overall Ranking Changes.

Aah, that makes sense then.

 

[DaFlo]

She deserved better, the televote score was suprising :/

Btw the fake jury vote changed four placings if I am correctly

Norway pushed over Sweden
Serbia over Albania
Estonia over San Marino
Germany over Belarus

 

[Chorizo]

I would really like to know how they came up with the jury points. Most of the points went to the countries at the bottom of the jury scoreboard but there are exceptions, like Australia, and the order is random.

Probably Jon Ola called the shots here instead of Christer.

 

[Ana Raquel]

deserved a little better. and she still looks like my cousin.

 

[tuorem]

ZENA: "Yes, you gonna like it"
Viewers: "Nope"

She shouldn't have been so categorical

 

[RainyWoods]

Zena deserved so much better. She's an amazing performer and the song was catchy as fudge. I love the way she works the stage. She's obviously rehearsed but you've got this real sense of freedom with her as she's going for it. The complete opposite of Cyprus which was super calculated and quite stiff as a result. Belarus was so peppy. I really enjoyed it.

They are gonna have to explain those fake jury votes to be honest, especially because of what I bolded. Does a world actually exist where Belarus' jury doesn't give 12 points to Russia, let alone the 0 that happened? If anything they should have just excluded their votes entirely.

 

[BorisBubbles]

They should've just counted their televote twice. It's not like Sergey wins with those additional 12 points.

 

[MalagaToledo]

I'm so happy zena flopped with televote and jurry. It seems people are gonna DISLIKE it. Wow, and on top of that she barely qualified for final. Only 2 pts between her and Poland. If it was just people, she wouldn't have qualified, but jurry pushed her. On top of that, malversation with their jurry and ebu had to delete their votes. I'm so happy! At least something good last night.
