Hello, this is Vaidotas. Let me tell you about a failed appearance. Recently, the Swedish national Eurovision selection, called Melodifestivalen, took place. The voting consists of both audience and jury points. The jury is made up of several countries, and I was invited to be one of the Lithuanian jury members and announce Lithuania’s points live on air.
Then the live show began—an amazing event, everyone was happy. We were in contact with Swedish TV technicians, checking that everything was fine. We got confirmation that everything was perfect. I was standing in the Lithuanian TV studio with my microphone on and a TV monitor in front of me, watching the event. The host announced that Lithuania’s points would be presented by Vaidotas from THE ROOP. I began my short speech…
And then I heard someone outside the studio doors loudly telling me to stop. I glanced at the TV monitor to see what was happening. Suddenly, I saw the broadcast showing the event’s host and the Lithuanian jury spokesperson’s window—but it wasn’t me!
