Will you please please please stop saying that when you can't know what's going on? This is not about Catarina as she's not an issue anymore. She's no great singer anyway and her song was not that special.

This is about a very wealthy man who arrogantly decides for his country with RTP's quiet backing.

The facts, apparently are as following: Rui and Catarina won the semi with 9000 and odd votes, Rui being first. Suzy was 5th with 4000 odd, very close to the 6th place. The rule was one vote per phone.
Final had 1000 more viewers than semi final. Rule was, "vote as much as you want and can afford".

2007 Portuguese entry was also from Emanuel. It seems to have come out that most of the votes it received have come from 3 places: his office, a call center in Portugal and a call center in France. Nobody talked about it at the time.

41% against 23% at present is simply gross. You hardly hear a voice defending Suzy and her song around here. I mean, where are all these people? xshrug

RTP is the one to blame, of course. I don't know what kind of deal they made with this man, but they must have made one and it was surely worth the trouble.

Can you really blame anyone for feeling cheated, regarless of the other songs?

I can sum all of this up in 1 word actually :lol:

Butthurt.

I do want her to do well, but I just don't think that she will

gurl it's time we all have a prayer circle to send positive vibes to Suzy xheart

Stop using word "butthurt". That's really offensive and rude IMO.

People are free to get offended if they think they've been cheated and the result was unfair. Therefore, they are free to complain. Is it that hard to accept it???

Then can we say "sore loser" instead because when all is said and done that's what it is xshrug

It's understandable that many get upset when their favorite doesn't win but the extent some fans are going they pretty much ask for the "butthurt" label if you ask me xshrug

Fan faves don't win NF many times. For example, this has happened a lot in Portugal during the last years. And this is the first time we get some serious accusations, so I guess they have their reasons. Well, not guess, I actually see it quite obvious ;)

Even if there was something fishy (and I'm still not convinced there are yet xshrug) doesn't give them the right to make derogatory comments about Suzy (she's apparently a whore who slept with Emmanuel for fame/song xhand). Even the composer of Catarina's song is making tasteless remarks like his "joke" comparison of Suzy voters to Madeline McCann and Flight Malaysia xdoh

Their just going too far X-OI

I agree about that. But if they really think there's something fishy they have the right to protest without being called rude things.

That's not people on this forum though.
But the truth of the matter is that literally everybody says they hat the song and they are not represented by it. EVERYBODY I've talked to except for my father :lol:
So either it was manipulated, or the song is simple the complete definition of guilty pleasure :lol:

In that semi full of ballads, and with Spain voting, maybe she can qualify..

I've listened to all the other songs in the Portuguese show and none of them are really good, in my opinion. This was better than the rest, but only slightly better. Not sure what else I can say about this song, to be honest.

Can I please be told what my favourite was, by the way? Because I honestly don't know.

I hadn't seen it. Very untasteful. I'm kinda surprised to see him this mad now. He should have seen this coming before.
