I wonder if that was part of Will Ferrell's character in the "Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga" movie.
It was a different character than what Will Ferrell typically plays, much more "internally desolate yet resolutely struggling forward" while still having the typical character archetype of being completely blind to cringeworthy events.
The contest is happening ATM.
If you haven’t watched it already, I suggest you to go watch Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga[0] , a brilliant comedy movie that captures the Eurovision’s spirit very well. They also speak the truth about the voting: Nobody likes UK, so zero points :)
Jokes aside, Eurovision is a cringy but at the same time euphorically positive event, fetching 200M viewers worldwide every year.
Even Australia is now in the contest(didn’t make it to the finals but I think they should have made it, there are worse songs that did).
correction: Apparently Australia is in the finals! As they deserve.
