Join us in a couple of hours for the semi final results. Turned out that Hinterlandia had emailed Bre a copy of their votes so we almost have a full house in the end.

Any last minute prayers?

The theme will be Oscars/awards themed. If you get a happy celebratory actor gif then it means you've qualified, if you get a sad celebrity gif then it's the end of the road for you.

Sounds like a fun concept!

I felt calm and collected when confirming this month but actually a bit nervous now I know how strong the competition is 😅

Fingers crossed. I'm expecting to come around my usual position of #25.

Just hope I don't lose a large chunk of my votes...

no idea about my chances ddd so i'll be vibing whatever the results will be 😭

Hinterland doing this whole process by email is sending me 🤣

I've enjoyed Josh's hosting of this event so far, the standard has been very high indeed!

Apparently they can't get into their account on their new phone atm oop xx

Kinda ikonik tho

I think I should have got enough fans to get through safely enough but can't be too comfortable when there aren't many songs in the semi that sound like DNQs

Not seen since April 1st but yet an overarching presence over BJSC 174 still 😅

I feel like we're in for a shock DNQ or two, but we shall see

What will be will be...

It would be hard to grumble too much to miss the final on such a strong month. Some brilliant songs are going to DNQ, that's for sure. Nice to see everyone in Semi 2 voted, I suspect Singerpurear will be out with the deduction although not sure it had much of a chance in that semi anyway sadly (nice cover though). I can't really call who the other DNQs will be in that one at all.

looking forward to this, if only to compare the results against the speculation

need 'Fortuna' through though, hope it was comfortably in.

don’t mind me, I’m just here for my own funeral

Let's see if the odds/predictions have my hopes up futilely yet again x

Semi 2 honestly wasn't the best semi for me, although it definitely wasn't so clear cut what could qualify and what wouldn't so interested to see x

maybe we should have traded semis

Hinterland being iconic as always

We’re definitely in for some surprises, especially in SF1. I have been too busy predicting everyone else that I haven’t really thought about my Debby 😭 Rooting for her x

Excited! Think it’ll be a cut-throat set of results! Come on Orbital & Tilda ❤️

i’m sat

We are about to begin the results!!! But first, a word from the host's autoqualifier, camp queen and c*nty icon Erika Jayne.

SEMI FINAL 1:

QUALIFIED: BØTANIKKÄ (Debbii Dawson - You Killed The Music)

QUALIFIED: SÉYETANA (Igorrr - ADHD)

That is live footage of Nicole Kidman in the audience in Ajanaeda clapping for Debbii Dawson and Igorrr like only Nicole Kidman can. Congrats to our first two qualifiers!!!
