    The drama:
    1. TVP (Polish broadcaster) changed the rules of the NF a few days before it was held
    2. At least 2 jurors were somehow connected to Blanka (1 of the jurors was her choreographer)
    3. TVP broke some of the rules of the NF
    4. The head of the jury didn't even know the rules of NF (she also said some other strange things)
    5. TVP does not want to publicly show the individual jury votes
    6. Blanka liked some comments and a post very offensive to Jann (public favorite), and later said she didn't
    Blanka and TVP are also accused of a few other things, but I wouldn't say they're 100% true

      1. TVP changed the rules due to limited airtime. That's the main reason.
      2. One of the jury was involved in choreography for Blanka but also worked with Felivers, Kuba, Maja, Yan (other contestants) for NYE show .
      3. Not a single rule was reported as BROKEN (only for conspiracy theories)
      4. Another theory based on people opinion (not a fact)
      5. The pressure to reveal the results is happening in comments on youtube so don't think TVP will consider that as a serious request.
      6. That's fabricated story to dismiss Blanka. The comment was liked from fake account and poorly edited screenshots means nothing.

    The choice of jury in Poland is ridiculous, because there were few better performances this evening. Besides Jann, honestly they could give 12 point to Dominik Dudek or Alicja Szemplinska. But they chose one of the worst songs and singers. How could this happen? For example one of the members of jury is Blanka's choreographer. But situation is more complicated and it looks like corruption case.

Voting rules were suddenly changed just a few days before the final and they empowered the jury. Blanka's choreographer's boss was on the jury. Jury voting wasn't transparent and televoting results weren't presented on the show. It's been 2 weeks and we still don't know the full results. Our broadcaster dosen't intent to explain anything.

He wrote and composed the song by himself, also the whole concept of the music video for Gladiator was his idea. This is extremely impressive as for 24 yo man tbh.

    There are many reasons why polish Eurovision fans do not agree with this choice, i.e., Blanka had professional contacts with the choreographer from the jury panel, 4 days before the finale the contest rules were changed so that televotes did not matter so much anymore (allegedly she got 3 times less televotes than Jann but with the new voting the difference between them was only 2 points).

  • @ShalottofCsilla

    From my understanding, the polish broadcaster TVP had promoted Blanka in their tv shows before the national final, and then changed the rules of the NF only days before it took place to give more power to the jury and less power to the televote. This may be a response to how another competitor, Jann, was very popular with the public, and if the old rules still applied he would have very likely won the NF. During the NF, Blanka then received full jury points despite her questionable vocal performance, even though competitors like Dominik and Alicja had very good vocal performances. Many polish people feel that the whole NF was rigged for Blanka and was only held so that the broadcaster could gain money from televoting.

      Alicja really got a great voice, but she got dumped for someone who couldn't sing for the 2nd time after 2021. Dominik was OK as well, but as a girl I'm a little biased towards this not becoming a sausage party, so I probably would have gone with Alicja, but both would have been better jury choices than Blanka. Hopefully, her vocals in the jury show were better and she was just nervous. But if she's nervous, when performing in front of big crowds she's gonna fail at Eurovision even more.

    Georgina, Ive thought about what I witnessed and here is my summation of the scandalous events in Warsaw.
    The situation that went down with this so-called National Final "competition" will live in ESC infamy permanently, and it will be at LEAST 10 years before people stop referencing it every single year. It puts to shame any previous national selection scandal in ESC history.
    The first Red Flag was TVP suddenly changing the rules for the final selection process, mere days before the final, from pure televote to suddenly having this surprise Jury have 50% of the power (but ultimately, given that it voted AFTER the televote was known, it had 100% of the power) has created outrage to say the least.
    Second, the unethical/immoral manipulation of the jury members themselves. The ironic tragedy of having the woman (Edyta Gorniak) who was Poland's first (and to date highest placed) entry also being the major mover behind this disgrace is just heartbreaking. She is ON RECORD as making comments about Jann being "demonic" and that she couldn't "in good conscience" vote for him. Her bigotry about his perceived orientation is abhorrent -- he must be judged on the performance alone, her personal religious bias be damned. Also there is clearly some form of intimate relationship between Blanka and Edyta's son. Lastly Blanka's choreographer was a jury member. Apparently TVP has never heard of fair play or conflict of interest.
    I don't truly blame Blanka herself, SHE didnt force Edyta or other Jury members to willingly violate any semblance of impartiality etc. They permanently stained themselves with disgrace of their own free will.
    But in the end, the worst reality is that SHE CANNOT SING WORTH A DAMN in a live performance, and many Poles have now publicly said so... based on other things than just this competition. If the jury was gonna commit such gross misconduct they could have at least made up the previous slight to Alicja, from when she wasn't auto-sent in 2021, to make up for 2020, and at least SHE is a proven live performer.

    I'm not Polish but I've got some details.
    The voting rules were changed last minute away from the traditional rules, giving the jury more power
    Blanka was friends with the head of the jury's son and her choreographer's boss who were both jurors (there's also a 3rd, but nobody knows who they are), so all three of them voted Blanka high.
    The real act that the people wanted (Gladiator by Jann), was voted for by the public en masse, but since the public held no power, Blanka won on jury vote alone, not Jann, who would've given Poland a chance to win.

    Polish people voted almost unanimously for Jann who didn't win. Given the fact that Blanka has absolutly no vocal skills and that she is somehow connected to at least two of the jury members (one of them being her choreographer), it goes without a shadow of a doubt that the preselections were set up. Moreover, Jann's performance might have been considered too queer or controversial (Górniak, the principal jury member, known for being "spiritually awakened" said in an interview that it had been "demonic" and that Blanka's performance on the other hand had been proper because she hadn't shown too much body despite the standards of nowadays pop music). People now are furious and some of them want Blanka to give up so that she doesn't humiliate Poland

    Blanka was picked because of our broadcaster set it up. No one beside people in her label voted for her and let me tell you that she was on second place, do if it wasn't her label, Jann would have about 50% of televotes for himself if my calculations are correct. That's a hell of a drama and he were hurt and tricked by TVP. It's simply a corruption and manipulation, that is low. Please don't talk about Blanka anymore. Her career ended faster than it began.
    You should really react to Jann, as he was not only Poland's choice, but also Europe's. We were on a 6th place in odds BEFORE announcing Blanka to be the "winner". That speaks for itself. Now we're at 22 place I think. Like c'mon... What did they do! We say a hard NO to this.

    We agree with you... This choice is a shame for Poland. Blanka is not our representative, she is the choice of our corrupt public television. Polish journalists of the Eurovision media appealed to the TVP authorities for transparency of the results, but there was no response. In Poland, nobody supports Blank's choice, because we all know that she was chosen by connections and money, not by fans. The petition to change the candidate for Eurovision and transparency of the results was signed by 90,000 people, but no one listens to us. The jurors fell silent, blocked their social media accounts, and did not give interviews. We have a terrible situation in Poland and people's rebellion against Blanka's choice, because she was not the victory of the fans. She can't even sing... She was in the Polish TOP MODEL a year ago, it didn't work out... So she recorded a radio hit with a big label, promoted for months on TVP. He has very rich parents and he rides not by talent but by bought victory. She has no fans in Poland.

    This year they probably set up the whole selection to send Blanka, who is really struggling on stage.
    You might think "But why"? Why would Polish broadcaster sabotage themself like this.
    Well just look at Belarus. They always send lifeless cheap blend songs. I can only assume that real artists have something to say. And what if the message dont line up with what authority want to force into people's head?
