Open Post: Hosted By The Magnificent Performance Of The Sign Language Interpreter For Iceland s Eurovision Performance

Get the Full StoryThe Eurovision Song Contest is usually a couple of hours of giant amounts of glittery fuckery and yesterday s show was no exception Exhibit A: Madonna . However, if you only saw the Netherlands winning with that guy s boring ass song, you might worry that all of the other performances were beat. Nope, it was just that the real artists weren t highlighted nearly enough. Take Hatari Iceland s exciting mix of 90s BDSM fetish pleather industrial metal and softly cooing femme glamour. Their odd Rammstein meets Poison meets the club scene from a direct-to-DVD knock-off of The Matrix aesthetic floored the world! There was a guy with a sledgehammer! And that wasn t even the best part!

Here s the full performance this one was taped in March of Iceland s entry:

But the real star of Hatari s performance was their sign language interpreter who revealed herself as the Icelandic superstar s secret weapon. She took their performance, channeled it through her obvious internal struggles with anger over the world s injustice and let it out in a primal scream of hand geometry and anguish. How she didn t clinch the win for them is a mystery. They placed 10th.

She even gave former HSOTD Tommy Kr ngh a run for his interpretive genius money!

Hatari is also reportedly in trouble with Eurovision s organizers for holding up Palestinian flags and peace signs during the voting section, which is apparently against the rules since acts are told not to get political . If they face some kind of punishment, I want to see their reaction through their sign language superstar!
