eurovision-belgrade.jpgI have a love/hate relationship with Eurovision; some years I watch every stage and others I boycott it like a plague. But always, it is just one of those things you can't seem to avoid year after year, and this year I would be booking my seat in front of the TV if I were in France. Why? Because Jean-Paul Gaultier is set to be a commentator for French TV channel, France 3, on the final day of competition on May 24. He will be adding a bit of a class to one of the kitschiest singing competitions around. A self confessed fan of Eurovision, Gauiltier admits he's a fan of the show. "I have watched Eurovision ever since I was a child," he said amid criticism that the event is too kitschy. "In France we are a bit snobbish. Eurovision has become kitsch but in earlier years it was simply popular music," he added. True, Abba once won the competition, and they were popular once right? ;)
