“5 minutes before the performance I was still sure of victory. I didn’t win. Thank you and I’m sorry ❤️” @paidatonriehuja (Käärijä) on Instagram

➥ PSA: KÄÄRIJÄ IS A GROWER, NOT A SHOWER.

WHAT

[toscrollperchancetomeme]

The fact that people say that Lestat shouldn't be a rockstar because that's not "a thing" in 2024 when Maneskin are just... right there.

Excerpt from a Swedish article with a Käärijä interview. Here's a translation of my favourite part.

Edit: Link for whole article here

Today you're wearing nail polish and earrings, your style is quite queer? - I want to go out on a limb and do some crazy stuff. Really I wanted to wear yellow, but The Rasmus who competed for Finland last year went with that so then the stylist went with green and I like it. I wear what I like and I don't care about others.

What do people in Finland think about your style? - I guess some people think who the hell is he? But I want to do what I feel like. I think it's a bit of a new wave in Finland and younger people don't care. It is more open to go your own way.

Are you straight? - Haha, yes, there's only girls here (laughing). But I love the gay fans and I was surprised there were so many gays at all the concerts leading up to Eurovision. I love gays, they're a lot of fun and I've got several close gay friends in Finland. And I think it's important that everyone should be who they are and love who they want.

Do you feel any body image pressure since you're half naked all the time? - No, I don't care about that. I've been taking my shirt off ever since I started with music. I want everyone to be able to get undressed no matter what you look like. You don't need a six pack to do it, everyone is beautiful in their own way.

"Omg the met gala is on" I literally couldn't give a fuck. Eurovision starts tomorrow and I'm locking in. Do not host your event so close to eurovision if you don't want me to completely ignore it. The only exception is interview with the vampire season 2

Lord of the Lost being absolute kings and staying true to their word 🏳️‍🌈

"Yes, I am thankful for living in a country that – other than many other countries in this world – is able to socially catch me and others. With heavy limitations of course, we could now talk in lengths about our health care system or Hartz 4 [German unemployment benefits] for example. I am not someone who will step forward and say 'Fuck the system!', because I know that without this system many here would be lost, me very likely included. At the same time, you won't see me going to ESC with a German flag, swollen with pride. And I would also refuse to run around with a German flag there if anyone were to demand me to do so. I rather hold and will vindicate the mindset that, of course, we will inevitably compete for Germany, because we are from Germany, and the concept of the ESC is to have countries vote for other countries, and somewhere you have to draw lines at such a competition. But these lines, these borders, are man-made, which is why I say that I rather want to compete for those people that are into this kind of music and who were missing – broadly speaking – alternative music at the ESC. That is how I feel about it."

Interviewer: Could Slovenia be a dark horse? Käärijä: That would be awesome. If Bojan would raise the trophy I would be so proud of him.

These two... 😭

Idk how to explain it, but going down the Bokris and the Kris Guštin tags makes me realize how much softer Kris became over the past year? Like I said, I don't know how to explain it, he just seems more giggly and softer.

Or maybe I just warm up to the guy

[toscrollperchancetomeme]

My toxic trait is thinking that Lestat and I would be besties because we would have the bitchiest Eurovision Song Contest watch parties.

they should call him yaprija instead of käärijä because by god he yaps
