i think that the idea that you cannot watch it for camp, and pure enjoyment is a falsehood. geoff parkes (queen g) writes eloquenlty about that in his lj. i mean i watch eurovision for similar reasons to liking liza minelli and musical theater, because it does have a kind of queer gaze to it...but that queer gaze is one of genuine love and bemusement not cynical detachment.
