Every year, broadcasters publish a portfolio with studio photographs of their artists to promote their entries ahead of Eurovision 2016. While flipping through this year’s 43 albums, we came across some irresistible photos that were screaming MAKE ME A MEME! And so we did. This is Twitter fuel, y’all.
Let’s do this! We’re sure you remember that IVAN recently announced that he wants to perform naked with a wolf in Stockholm. We’ve been throwing shade, but he don’t care.
As for the EBU, their response to his request was pretty clear.
…and then, IVAN insisted. And Jon Ola Sand was all like…
After hearing that IVAN was serious about being naked on stage, some of you might have been like…
… while the vast majority of you were like…
…or maybe even…
IVAN might be gathering some attention around his plans to share his birthday suit, but he still isn’t the favourite. In fact, he is not even close, as Belarus sits on number 35 in the betting odds, which are topped by his neighbour, Sergey Lazarev.
Sergey has been in first position since very early in the season, although he had to battle it out with Sweden until Frans was selected. However, after the Melfest final, Russia kicked Sweden out of the top position immediately.
Some of you say Sergey is on top “just because it’s Russia” and you aren’t feeling “You’re the only one“.
We know that many of you oppose a Russian win because of resentment over Russia’s anti-gay and anti-human rights policies. Many of you have this same reaction towards a potential Russian win year after year…
…and while you walk around in circles nervously, you wonder what can be done to prevent Russia from winning…
And then you remember that, along with Russia, many (if not all) other countries in Europe are also having trouble respecting human rights recently. So that’s no longer an excuse for not wanting Russia to win.
Well, this post is already sidetracking into nonsense. But, come on, it’s Easter, and you know, there won’t be much other stuff to read…
Well OK, if you had something better to read, I made you lose three minutes of your time, it’s not that much! *rolls eyes*
…and come on, now you have new Twitter memes! But if you still think this is a stupid post, let bad-ass Nina tell you something 🙂
Don’t take that last thing seriously, I just needed to fit it somewhere. I only wanted to have a nonsensical meme on the list, and that’s THIS:
You didn’t know you had to love him!
Bonus meme for Spanish speakers!
Sí, como se aprecia en los comentarios de su vídeo en Youtube, la Agnete es una chunga, y lo sabéis. O si no, os raja:
Do you have any other memes from this year’s Eurovision stars? Share them with us below!
What about Poland?
Oh wiwibloggs, you forgot these awesome gifs 🙁

I do not get it (Spanish sense of humor?)! Are you defending and promoting Russia? Or its opposite??????
I LOLed at Gabriela’s and Nina’s memes HAHAHA
Where are the Serhat memes? His entire music video for “I Didn’t Know” was a goldmine for reaction GIFs.
There needs to be a Sanja meme too. Her facial expressions and body language on her video scream for one.
I cringe at the sex machine meme. That’s just me.
The whole Russian section sounded very shady against the fans … but still nobody is focusing on the low quality of the song and questioning what criteria is actually justifies giving Sergey the top spot on these betting odds? So no … disliking Sergey’s entry has nothing to do with the whole Russian anti-gay Mexican soap opera .. it’s just that you see someone getting a candy and not even deserving it … the song does not deserve it … but yes Russia wants to win this regardless. Russia knows its place as Russia in Eurovision. And Sergey is willing… Read more »
cringeworthy…yuck
HAHAHAHAHA the best one is “pues te reviento” very common in Spain ????????
@Julen I suck at Spanish slang and colloquisims so thanks for the translate. Didn’t understand.
cheesecake has the same thoughts as me. i cringed during the whole thread.
Some of these photos are really cringeworthy.
Gosh some of these are stupid and make no sense with the pictures. Some do! Some are just not matching with the photo. The one with Croatia was pretty good!
I didn’t notice that it was all press photos at first; I scrolled through the entire thing wondering where the Baltic Boys memes were.
There is certainly something attractive about Serhat…. but oh my god Amir Haddad is just so effortlessly gorgeous *o*
I dont understand why Serhat agreed to perform that old-fashioned song….yuck…
Hahaha muy bueno Lluis. Los voy a usar muchísimo
I just love Agnete xD, her youtube replies are G L O R I O S and totally fit her amazing sassy black woman image.
?oh=e9a44996fb54df7f8de2458e28751f37&oe=56F9FB1B
PLEASE GUYS I BEG YOU, make a full blog entry about how cool Agnete is!
nah. the tumblr memes this year are way better.
Nina’s one was really funny omg I am using that after every argument online with a person lol
“Cries in spanish”
Thank you for reading, Selene. Have a nice day 🙂
Serhat probably thinks he IS the THE sex machine, given his ego
These are absolutely awful. You’re not funny, and putting random words on a random picture does not make it a meme.
Serhat just keeps getting me pregnant.
Thanks Julen for the explanation, I wouldn’t have done it better 🙂
The Spanish one is a common popular sentence coming from a TV series, that has gaind popularity in the last years. It can have the meaning more or less like “Then I’ll destroy you”, and it is said as a kind of joke when someone doesn’t agree in something with you
Ha ha! Happy Easter to all of you! Btw, what does the Spanish mean?
