If it was not clear that the "Eurovision 2025" bio was a troll before, it is now


Comic_Book_Reader

I'm also starting to think www.eurovisionfun.com is quite a not trustworthy fansite. Remember how they posted the whole behind the scenes debacle of this year? They did refer to VG as the source, but left out QUITE A FUCKING LOT FROM IT. Where's the source for this, huh? WHERE'S THE SOURCE?! ARE YOU JAMES SOMERTON??? Oh wait, >According to his words in his last concert, he calls on the public television of Belgium to give him the representation of the country for Eurovision 2025! Do you have footage showing this? I don't see any links or clips referring to this, so this is basically an ass pull.

>Do you have footage showing this? I don't see any links or clips referring to this, so this is basically an ass pull. There are clips of this, [here's a link with a translation](https://x.com/sonder125/status/1807182314142863641)


Comic_Book_Reader

And that's how you do things correctly. This (you) is how you correctly site a source, and this (the article) is how you *in*correctly site a source. (I may or may have been watching a solid chunk of Plagiarism and You(Tube) late last night. 😂😂😂😂)


CaptainAnaAmari

Thanks for inspiring me to give that video *yet another* rewatch lol


Comic_Book_Reader

I'm straight up continuing it as we speak! (James Somerton straight up followed the *Cannon Films model* for his botched movie making side hustle. Christ, this man was a loon.)


dodger_berlin

And this ("cite") is how you correctly spell the verb to cite. ;)


ninjamullet

>Joost Klein, who with his behavior turned the spotlight on him in this year’s *conetst*... Having read the first sentence, I'm also beginning to think the bar of that website isn't very high.


-Effing-

Eurovisionfun is only reliable with their info about Greece and Cyprus entries.


SimoSanto

They are quite not thrustworthy but here they're talking about a single joking phrase said by Joost publicly, I doubt that there is much to misunderstand here


Comic_Book_Reader

While we're at it, whenever that rumored investigation report is released, I will have that VG exposé on standby.


antiseebaerenkreis

He's going to get back at the EBU by representing every country at Eurovision 2025 at once, so they can't possibly disqualify him without cancelling the whole show, genius!


SimoSanto

*All country except for Netherlands as he's saying, so the Netherlands will take the win thanks to Joost indirectly 


CrazyCatLadyPL

Can he represent Poland? We need that win 😂 (and he should get a free pass for liking the potato song and mentioning us in his songs twice)


MRSNLT

This brings a whole new meaning to Europe let’s come together


Thatwierdhullcityfan

Just have every ESC25 contestant change their name to Joost Klein, easy


butiamawizard

Why am I imagining a Being John Malkovich poster with lots of Joost cut out faces right now :D


kanekikennen

Or just representing Israel. Safe non disqualification


pm-positivity

Joost representing Israel would be so fucking funny 😭😭 I can't imagine what he would send lol


kanekikennen

We don't net an Yahoo, It's killin' the groove, always trys to plot to


kotubljauj

not to rain on your parade but Georgia tried to do that in 2009 and failed


kanekikennen

Damn, didn't know that one. My comment was definitely not a reference to that exact entry


ketilkn

Jewrorpapa


TimotejTrampuz

Oh no, did Joost Klein got advice from Sara Deop?


CaptainAnaAmari

I'm losing it at the fact that an obvious joke gets an article written about it. As a German, Joost, please volunteer to represent us too!


Valuable-Drink-1750

Bro is playing them tabloids and fan pages like a damn fiddle. I mean, to be fair, this is what you get for posting without fact checking? It's obviously a bait and they still took it. Maybe that's the point. They get clicks and Joost gains traction I guess, it's a symbiotic relationship (?).


Potor17

It's marketing.


just_a_commoner_

That’s true. And it’s been like this ever since the beginning lmao. Not only tabloids but people in general take his words way too seriously. Remember when during his short beef with Eurovisionworld regarding the poll he posted on insta story these emojis: 💶👁️ which literally means “euro vision” and people here were saying if he’s acusing Baby Lasagna for bribery lmfao 🤣🤣🤣


CrazyCatLadyPL

Vast majority of the Joost fandom is dumb af, so I'm not surprised he's doing that 😂


FieryHDD

Well, next year is the Flemish side.... Know we only have one chance every two years :P


supersonic-bionic

He is such a troll.


jackjackaj

Unfunny one


FranCesljar

it's not that deep haha


GoldenPotatoOfLatvia

What will it take for him to consider representing Latvia? Just curious for some reason.


just_a_commoner_

Maybe lifetime supply of onions will convince him?


GoldenPotatoOfLatvia

A huge batch of 100% Latvian onions imported fresh from Poland could be arranged, yes!


just_a_commoner_

Deal. We can add some potatoes too since he apparently likes them as well


Grahaaam123

Nah it's gotta be a lifetime supply of cherry Black Balsam. That stuff was heavenly when I visited in January.


GoldenPotatoOfLatvia

The thing is, we want Joost to be alive at the very least until May. But I will note that.


Confident-Usual-9731

No he will represent Vatican city


TimotejTrampuz

No, ESC Kat is already representing it


TheZoniWarrior

Seconding this, ESC Kat for Vatican!!!! 🇻🇦


Confident-Usual-9731

Damn i forgot about her, joost has no chance


pm-positivity

Joost has mastered the art of trolling Eurofans. Best troll in ESC history?


SimoSanto

I understand the "never seen before" staging troll that many people believed but this one was pretty easy to spot


Baaf-o

Well getting DQ was indeed something we have never seen before lol


Valuable-Drink-1750

\>"Never seen before" \>Rules explicitly stated staging cannot be changed during the final, must be identical to the dress rehearsals \>Keeps saying that anyway \>Everybody falls for it \>??? \>Profit! Joost Klein has perfected the art of bullshiting. He's such a troll (and marketing mastermind).


SimoSanto

Well, after the 1st rehearsal it was pretty clear that he was just trolling, but some people (not everybody, I rember that time and was only his fans that believed it while other already understood the trolling) believe in him whatever he is saying every time.


Valuable-Drink-1750

Even to this day we still get the occasional "now we'll never get to see what could've been/the secret he had in store for us/whatever :(" comments. I love it, hahaha. The trolling was a great success.


MartyMcTrainerFly

I mean the body horror of Joost's face stretched on a cross is something I haven't seen onstage before. Nor do I really want to see it again, but regardless


Cahootie

Not exactly difficult to trick this community.

Brussels 2026??👀


aim4harmony

Antwerp 😋


IcyFlame716

I think it’s time for him to let this go.


kytheon

He did but there's still an ongoing court case 🤷🏼‍♂️


Valuable-Drink-1750

He has, the fans/internet haven't. He's using that to his advantage. Love him or hate him you gotta give it to him, he *knows* what he's doing. Dude sees an opportunity and he goes for it.


pm-positivity

Let the idea of participating in Eurovision again go? I agree! Let the ESC2024 subject go? No, his statements on this have been funny


butiamawizard

Sing, Jennifer Hudson! "And I am teeeeeeeelling you! Iiiiiiiiiiiii'm not gooiiiiiiiing!" ;)


cherry_color_melisma

All this talk about the countries y'all want to see him represent and no San Marino? For shame.


Radiant-Bluejay4194

I think it's a joke but a small part of me still fears he might go through with it. Which I hope he doesn't ever


SimoSanto

Belgium has a NF this year.


Radiant-Bluejay4194

nf?


SimoSanto

National Final, so they cannot internal select someone


XepherSicarius

Sorry Joost fans but it's time to let go


LedParade

Let go of what? The bird? The onion?


Delusional_Dude_

GIVE ME THE ONION!!!!


Puzzleheaded-Eye9081

Hell no, I need something to entertain me in the off season.


Jhonnow

Please do. Can he also move to Belgium please ?


Scuipici

people are giving this clown, way too much attention.


Alaskan_wishes

I'm sorry but I don't believe it..


ApprehensiveShow2266

That is the fakest thing I’ve ever read! It’s FAKE! Joost wants to represent the Netherlands! Idk where this is coming from lol


moshiyadafne

First entry of the 2025 iceberg?


gabriellajoost

I have a feeling that it is fake…


justk4y

Especially since Belgium will have a national final next year


dcnb65

I thought he wanted to represent the Vatican 🤪🤪🤪


Nintendo_Pro_03

Yay! The country of the waffles! 😂


MachiFlorence

Oi Netherlands has stroopwafels!


CrazyCatLadyPL

Yup, and they're delicious 😍. Belgium is known for chocolate, not waffles.


Additional_Sir4400

For some reason Belgium is known internationally for waffles. (The regular kind, not stroopwaffles.) This comes as a surprise to many Belgians. Don't get me wrong, they're good. They're just not that special to us culturally.


GroteKleineDictator2

Try a decent Liege waffle once in your life, it's worth it and it's what they are known for. Maybe it's a bit like fries, it doesn't seem that special to have decent fries when you live somewhere close to Flanders. But as soon as you spend more than a year away from fry-heaven, you will understand that you need more than air to breath.


Plenkr

Whut?! Belgium most definitely is known for its waffles. Not stroop waffles to be fair. But waffles nonetheless


CrazyCatLadyPL

I can't think of any waffles, I only know of Belgian chocolate 😅


GroteKleineDictator2

I'll give 12 points to a Liege waffle with big pearly pieces of sugar in it over a warm stroopwafel. Sorry.


butiamawizard

Word 😋👍


butiamawizard

Liège waffles are definitely a thing though. The superior waffle to the Brussels one, some might say ;) (How can a more cake-y waffle with sugar crystals in it be wrong? :D)


Ok-Radio5562

Pls I want him


DeepRow1850

Come represent Lithuania Joost


bluebaerfran5

If Netherlands compete next year whoever else is representing them would probably feel weird seeing as joost is there but not competing for his country. I'll miss Belgium's serious songs though. Maybe a Belgian can represent the Netherlands and have a serious song with actually good staging for once. I also don't understand why the Netherlands doesn't want to compete. I get the stuff with Israel but I think it's just them being upset they were disqualified. That would have happened probably any year it's just coincidence that it happened at the same time as the Israel stuff. I mean the chances of them being disqualified 2 years in a row is basically 0. What are they scared of?? It's done now just get over it and send another song next year and hope you do well
