Cade Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 (edited) Israel had a "Madonna" problem yesterday during the dress rehearsal/jury voting performance. Her rip-off trousers for her break-dancing bit didn't rip off properly and she was pulled clean off her feet.

Half the band went back to fight after they won last year. The others stayed on the road as cultural ambassadors. Sold the Eurovision trophy to buy drones. All their tour money goes back home too.
