Italian Eurovision fans are campaigning against Destiny and Maltese people are FUMING

May 20 2021 Share

Maltese Eurovision fans are going mad over a string of controversial posts making the rounds on social media. The posts in question call upon Italian Eurovision fans and urge them to hold back from voting for Malta due to Destiny’s winning potential with her song ‘Je Me Casse’.

Some Maltese fans were quick to bite back at the shady tactic while others shrugged it off, stating that ‘it’s the same story every year, even we do it’.

Destiny currently stands at second place in the Eurovision polls, trailing behind Italy’s Måneskin who hold a 21% chance of winning against Malta’s current 18%.

Who are you voting for this year?

Destiny jumps into second place in Eurovision 2021 polls

May 20 2021 Share

In the midst of an intense and ever-changing Eurovision Song Contest 2021, Malta’s ambassador Destiny Chukunyere has jumped into second place with her song ‘Je Me Casse’.

Malta holds an 18% chance of winning, just below Italy’s Måneskin with 21%, who have yet to deliver a performance of their song ‘Zitti e Buoni’ beyond their rehearsal performance.

Italy, along with France, England, Germany and Spain automatically qualify to the Eurovision Finals as a result of being part of the contest ‘Big Five’ thanks to their considerable financial contributions.

Meanwhile, a number of Italian social media posts have been circulating online which highlight Malta’s potential as a Eurovision winner and urge fellow Italian Eurovision fanatics to hold back from voting for their favourites in an attempt to ‘help’ Italy’s chances at winning the song contest.
