Unfortunately, less than 48 hours later, it was announced that Jost had been disqualified by the Eurovision Song Contest organisation.
We now know that a complaint has been filed against him for allegedly threatening a TV employee. This situation unfortunately led to his disqualification. During the finale, the artist remained remarkably calm. A video of dogs dancing to the song just popped up on his Instagram stories 'Who released the dogs?'. What could that mean? Ghost should know.
