    I have the Reddit thread open at the same time. I don't know how many of the commenters are from the USA, but they've hit Bemusement Level Delta at this point. :o

    Is this a rule from Eurovision?

    I think it's wrong. They can enter but they can't host it.

    Yeah, it is the only reason they are allowed in.

    the public votes will be the geo-political snake pit as always.

    Bet they're not. Look at results from previous years.

    If we see 40 more people giving out the public vote, it might just get to that point.

    I suppose if Australia is good and happy with it so be it. I think it's awful rule and it's wrong. They are allowed to compete in it but fcuk them if they want to host it.
