Well, if you’ve paid attention to Eurovision media over the last few hours, it seems that NDR’s Eurovision Twitter account either made a massive mistake or wrong-footed the whole of the Eurovision community.
NDR clearly had a pre-prepared “draft” and posted it a day early. Either that or they decided to release a fake news story to divert people from the real thing – I think it’s the latter and that, frankly, is hilarious!
The real news from Germany (which then caused a German Twitter meltdown of epic proportions, from everything I’ve seen) is that 26-year-old Jendrik Sigwart from Hamburg will represent Germany in Rotterdam.
Seemingly no one knows anything about him, so NDR has provided this short intro video.
If, like me, you’re thinking that he seems like he is trying just a touch too hard to be “kooky”, you could well be right!
The song, we are told, will be announced on 25th February.
