Admittedly, I have never been a big fan of the push for Australia to compete at Eurovision. Australians may be huge Eurovision fans, but is that really justification for us to have an entrant? Sure many of us, myself included, have a European background. But we still aren’t part of Europe.The idea of Australia competing at Eurovision was much like the thought of me dating a Hemsworth – a pleasant diversion to think about and to talk about the what ifs but not likely to actually happen.
AUSTRALIA – BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR
But I have to admit, when I first saw the news this morning, had it verified by checking several sites and realised that 1 April is still a good way off, my heart gave a giant leap and I felt all tingly with excitement. OMG! A one-off wildcard entry for Australia. This is a momentous day! And I will be there to cheer them on!
So Hemsworth brothers, where are you????
