The Eurovision Song Contest, known for its flamboyance and desire to shock, has gone too far this year, according to some viewers, the Daily Mail reports.

A number of participants put on a truly hot show in Basel, featuring provocative dances, revealing outfits and bold song lyrics.

However, criticism erupted on social media after the performances of Finland, Malta and Spain, with many users calling them "too sexy". Some viewers were quick to express their dissatisfaction on X, claiming that the first-ever contest had "lost its direction" and was no longer suitable for family viewing.

"Many people don't remember those innocent times... When Eurovision was an inclusive show for the whole family. Now it needs an 18+ rating", "A family show, huh?", "I've been watching the contest for many years. Previously it was fun and family-like, but yesterday's performances were all sexual innuendo." Finland caused a particularly strong reaction - singer Erika Wikman appeared on stage in a black latex suit and performed a provocative song called Ich Komme ("I'm Coming") against a backdrop of provocative decorations. Not far behind was the representative of Malta Miriana Conteh, who surprised the audience with a revealing performance.

Spanish singer Melodi also shocked the audience by appearing in a spectacular bodysuit and performing a passionate dance.

Erika Wikman won the Finnish national selection in February with the song Ich Komme, which combines playful lyrics, provocative choreography and a bold, revealing outfit. Although the song is sung mostly in Finnish, with a chorus in German, the line "Ich komme" (translated as "I'm coming") has sparked controversy due to its possible sexual connotations. The singer appeared in a revealing leather bodysuit with a low neckline, thigh-high boots and performed a provocative dance using a pole-dancing microphone stand.

"Sorry, Finland is a no. The outfit doesn't work, it's just repulsive", "Finland in a dominatrix costume".

Even Finnish President Alexander Stubb didn't seem to support the performance: at a school reunion, he announced that he was rooting for KAJ, the Finnish trio who competed for Sweden.

Upon learning of this, Wickman admitted her disappointment: "It would be great to see the 'greats' of our country supporting women like me one day." It later emerged that the competition's organisers, the European Broadcasting Union (EBU), had demanded that Wickman tone down her routine, finding it "too explicit".

In an interview with Finnish media, she confirmed that she had been asked to "cover her buttocks" and change her movements. The original look included a fetish-style corset, revealing chaps and a pole-dancing routine with a microphone to a pulsating electronic beat.

The singer also noted that Finns are generally conservative and not inclined to self-expression:
"Half of Finland hates me, half loves me."

However, Wickman said that the routine had already been in development before the EBU's intervention.
Finnish broadcaster YLE later denied the claim of "demands" from the EBU.

"There were discussions, but no direct instructions were given," YLE said. Miriana Conte from Malta followed Wickman. At the beginning of her number, she effectively tore off her yellow dress, showing a tight leopard print suit and a translucent top. But the main scandal broke out back in March, when her song Kant (translated from Maltese - "singing") was banned from performing at the competition. The reason was the consonance with the English curse word cnt.

Nevertheless, the singer compensated for the limitations in the lyrics with a bold show: the scenery included a giant mouth and legs, and dancers in a net performed revealing movements.

"Seriously? The word "kant" was banned, but the performance with lips between the legs was not?", "Complaints to Ofcom are just around the corner," - users noted.

Spanish Melody also caused a flurry of discussions with her fiery number Esa Diva. She started out in a long black dress, but then dramatically tore it off, leaving behind a silver fringed bodysuit and knee-high boots.

Also attracting attention was Armenia's Parg, who performed the song Survivor. The 31-year-old singer appeared on stage shirtless, showing off his tattoos, muscles, and daring image in black leather pants and fingerless gloves.
