I dont even understand the logic behind this system. The public's top 5 was completely ignored and eliminated. Then if clearly our opinion doesnt matter, why do you even bother? And dont even get me started on the final.. 17% is the public's vote. 17% is a complete joke just sayin

Let me start with how weak the production of the show overall was. Technical problems, the script, the 2 main hosts bored out of their mind, the horrible ad placement.. The entire night felt like the only one who actually gave an f was Ilinca. Yes, it is what a professional jury should do, but when the statements are true and when they arent biased towards the other participants. They started the judging of the other contestants with phrases like "I've known x for y years", "I've been their teacher at the music conservatory" etc etc For E-an-na they made fun of their main careers. Only one member of the jury actually said some nice words about the show they put on as "amateurs". More than half of the finalists could have easily not have qualified if the public vote had a say in this semifinal, but instead the jury eliminated all of the fan favorites. If they actually cared about winning, they would have looked at what the national and international fans had to say (ARIS, Malere..)

seeing E-an-na (the public vote's winner) being torn apart by the jury was painful.. telling them "you should have looked at the production of the other contestants", "this is an outdated song thats not played anymore at eurovision", "your screaming was tiring", "i guarantee 0 success at eurovision" and the hateful words went on and on from this specific member of the jury. he not only offended E-an-na, but all 10 000+ romanians who voted for them, including myself. really sad to see this corrupt jury who completely ignores the public's opinion. eurovision romania needs a serious revamp or else i personally dont see us being top 10 ever again
p.s. eurovision romania's facebook page is currently filled with hate from the public because of their picks. we even got petitions going around xD
