Jimmy Jump at the Eurovision – What really happened!

That was the most amazing thing that ever happened to me during all those years that i watch Eurovision from the first seats inside the arena. Spain starting singing and i was very ecstatic cause i really liked the song and i was watching it live for the first time as Spain is a big four country performing only to the final.
I was seating with the Portugheze fans and singing along the song when out of the blue we see a person entering the stage and going in front of the singer singing and making choreography. I initially thought he was part of the act when my friends told me that actually he is not part of the act but an invador. We were laughing and thinking that the Spanish entry was ruined.
The bodyguards took him out and the incident was over and Spain performed once again at the final. The thing that you didnt see and never been on camera is that when Jimmy jump , jumped from the stage , 2 fans from Spain kicked him in the *** and he got punched in the face. It was horrible but we think that Jimmy is already used to it.
Thank god he went on Spain and not in Romania to play with fire with Paula !

Here is what esctoday reported for the incident:

Few days ago, Jimmy Jump declared that he would pay a visit to Oslo and “shall try to sing a little song”. And he finally made it. This is the second time happenning to the Eurovision Song Contest stage back in 1964, and the lucky country that was to be interrupted was Spain, again. However, due to a mistake, the incident occured right before the Belgian entry. Jimmy Jump is a well known sports activist, while he overcomes all the security systems of a sport event, such as the final of Euro 2004 football cup.

This year, he expanded his “career” by causing a scene on the Eurovision stage, while the Spanish representative Daniel Diges was performing Algo pequeñito.

Meanwhile, the Hardchorus Song Contest, organized by Puma, has only four official participants, but day by day even more participations appear. The most recognised one was by Ukraine while Ani Lorak took part in this project, and the supporters of the Ukrainian national football team, were singing Shady Lady.

Above all, the French broadcaster decided this year to send Jessy Matador to perform Allez! Ola! Olé, the official hymn of the French national football team for the Worldcup event, taking place in South Africa this June. Considering that the Eurovision is a cultural event that takes place every May and in most cased it is characterized by not very flattering comments, the fact that the musical contest attracted the eyes of those directly involved with sports competition, is a proof that Eurovision is “a mean of promoting various considerations”, in this case the World Cup.
