MM: Ladies, gentlemen, and fabulous individuals of all gender expressions, welcome to EuroVoice 44: Showtime - the Results Show! I'm your host, Madame Marco.
MM: I'm so honoured to be with you all and present tonight's show. You know, my darlings, that I'm the very first drag queen to present one of these shows? It does make sense though, since it's LGBTQIA+ Mafia Month after all. It also makes sense because drag is a lot like music itself: it's not just an act of entertainment, it's a force of change.
Music is an art form that transcends boundaries, challenges norms, and breaks down barriers. It's about unapologetically expressing who we are and reminding the world that our differences make us beautiful, powerful, and unique. That's what I loved so much about this edition of EuroVoice! All of the fabulous acts were singing in different languages, displaying the unique colours of their countries. This was most linguistically diverse EuroVoice edition ever, and it was absolutely fierce, wasn't it?
So, tonight, let's celebrate ourselves, our Union's great diversity, and let's have a good time! Without further ado, let the get these results a cookin'! We Inquistans are pretty simple people, that's for sure, so we're gonna hear the results in alphabetical order. That's also kinda fair, isn't it? So which country is up first?
-
MM: Let's hear from the California Girls! Dr. Dre MD, are you there?
Dr. Dre: Hello Europe! Good evening Madame Marco! I'm here with the results from California.
MM: Dr. Dre, I have one questions for you. Why did you become a gardener?
Dr. Dre: Er, what?
MM: Because you wanted to grow some "phat beets" in your backyard!
Dr. Dre: Oh, good one. California has voted and here are the results. In third position, with 8 points... Istkalen! Coming in second, with 10 points... Icholasen! And in first place, our 12 points are awarded to... THE MISHAR REPUBLIC!
MM: Congratulations to the Mishar Republic! You're leading, gworl. Thank you, Doctor! I'll ask you about this rash I have on my back after the show, so please stay on stand by.
Ok, next we're headed to one of the EU's greatest allies, the Conch Kingdom! Let's connect with them now. Let's see who it is.
Socialist Platypus: Hello Europe! It's Socialist Platypus here with the results from the Conch Kingdom.
MM: Good to see you, Mr. Platypus. The people of Leagio are going wild right now seeing furry anime representation on their screens.
Socialist Platypus: The Conch Kingdom's votes are in! Our 8 points go to... Istkalen! Our second place 10 points go to... Reitzmag! Our 12 point winners are... THE UNITED DUCHIES!
MM: Amazing! Thank you, Conch Kingdom. We hope to see you queens participate again in the future! Mr. Platypus, I'll connect you with Dr. Dre so you can become a "duck-tor" and "beak" up on some medical knowledge. Anyway, let's see the scoreboard as it stands.
MM: We have the Nicoleizian Joint EuroVoice Team on top with 17 points, with Istkalen in second with 16 points and the Mishar Republic in third with 15 points. 1 point separating each! This is a close one so far. Let's see how this shapes up as we continue to move on.

MM: We're now headed to Prague to "czech" the results from Czech Slavia!
Antonín Slováček: Good evening Europe! I'm calling with the results from Czech Slavia.
MM: Antonín, why did the tourist bring a ladder to the Czech bar?
Antonín Slováček: Why?
MM: Because he heard the drinks were on the house!
MM: I don't get it. But I do get the results from the Czech people. Here are our results. Our 8 points go to... the Conch Kingdom! Our 10 points go to... Inquista! And our 12 points go to... ISTKALEN!
MM: Congratulations, Istkalen! You're doing great sweetie. Thank you for the results Antonín, I'm sure we'll keep seeing you again in the future. Thank you, Czech Slavia!
Ok, let's head to next in the alphabet: Elthize! Good evening Elthize!
Nai Palm: Good evening!
MM: We love the smell of naplam in the evening! Will you diplomatically bomb us with the results from Elthize?
Nai Palm: I'd love to. It's time for some good taste. The people of Elthize have spoken. Elthize has given our 8 points to... the United Duchies! 10 points to... the Conch Kingdom! 12 points to... ICHOLASEN!
MM: Icholasen stays winning. Thank you for the votes, Nai Palm, and thank you Elthize! I'll be in Elthize this Saturday, so please come say hi to me at St. Lucas pride parade if you're attending.
Ok so let's take a look at the tally as it stands!
MM: Icholasen continues to lead with 30 points! Inquista is now in second with 29 points, while Istkalen finds itself in third with 28 points. Once again, 1 point separates each of the top three positions! Things are close my darlings.
-
MM: Guess who is up next? It's none other than the amazing, fabulous, and fierce host country of Inquista! Calling from just down the street, let's hear what Inquistans have in store for us. Hello Saint Dominico!
Rosemary Barker: It's good to see everyone from across Europe tonight! Good evening, it's Rosemary Barker with the results from Inquista!
MM: Rosie, it's good to see you with the results! You've been keeping us up to date with the results from Inquistans for weeks now! Glad to see you've brought the EV results while we wait on the councillor election results. Your election coverage has been so glam, by the way. What have the Inquistan voters decided this time?
Rosemary Barker: The Inquistan public has spoken. The final results are in. Inquista's 8 points go to... the Conch Kingdom! Inquista's 10 points go to... Red Croatia! Finally, Inquista's 12 points go to... PORTUGAL!
MM: Parabéns Portugal! The Portuguese have treated me so well while on Drag Race Portugal, so I love to see some love returned to them. Well, most of them, anyway. I hope I don't have to ever see that bitch Beannete Minete again! Anyway, thank you Rosie! Keep us up to date on more election results from Inquista Today. Kisses!
Ok, next up... Istkalen! Good evening, Istkalen.
Stereotypical Westerner: Good evening.
MM: Happy to see you're with us, Stereotypical Westerner, despite everything that's going on in your country! Hopefully tonight's show will bring some healing and peace. While Istkaleners are still figuring themselves out, I hope you've figured out the results for EuroVoice?
Stereotypical Westerner: Yes. 8 points go to Elthize. 10 points go to Icholasen. 12 points for Inquista.
MM: We love to see it! Now this is good taste. Thank you for your votes, Istkalen. We're sending much love to you all right now.
Let's take a look at the overall scores as they stand now!
MM: Ok, Icholasen now pulling ahead as we approach the midway point. Things do change with every vote, though. We're far from finished, with 7 more votes still to come in!
-
MM: We're now going to hear the results from the Mishar Republic, who are competing in EuroVoice for the first time.
Michaela Jīlkovaa: Hello Saint Dominico and hello Europe! I'm calling from the Mishar Republic with our first ever EuroVoice results!
MM: How exciting! We're so glad we could be your first. It's nice to have a first that isn't organized with someone double your age over Grindr, isn't it? Or is it just me? No? Ok. Well, Michaela gworl, please spill the tea!
Michaela Jīlkovaa: The Mishar Republic is happy to give our 8 points to... Elthize! Our 10 points will go to... Reitzmag! The Mishar Republic is going to award our 12 points to none other than... the CONCH KINGDOM!
MM: Congratulations Conch Kingdom! 12 points to them! Thanks for the scores, Michaela! Looking great by the way, girly. Thanks for joining us, Mishar Republic!
Now let's hear from the Nicoleizian Joint EuroVoice Team! Hello to the singular and not all divided Nicoleizians!
Françoise Hardy: Bonsoir Europe ! I have the results from all of the Icholasens in !
MM: Françoise, why did a French bakery in Romaine take out a loan?
Françoise Hardy: I don't know?
MM: Because they "kneaded" a lot of "dough"!
Françoise Hardy: MDR !
MM: Ok that's "un œuf" from me!
Françoise Hardy: On behalf of the Nicoleizian Joint EuroVoice Team, our 8 points go to... Istkalen! 10 points go to... Elthize! Our top points... LA CROATIE ROUGE!
MM: Amazing. Thanks Françoise, you're a legend. Thank you for your votes, Icholasen! Let's see the group tally now.
MM: STOP THE COUNT! Let's call it a wrap here, right? Inquista now in the lead with 54 points, while Icholasen has 53 points and the Conch Kingdom has 52 points. Once again, a single point separates each of the top three positions! I can't take it anymore! 5 more results still to come.
-
MM: We're receiving our next result from outside of the European Union... olá Portugal!
Beannete Minete: It's me, bitch. I heard what you said!
MM: Oh God, not you! I thought you faded to irrelevancy since you flopped in 12th place.
Beannete Minete: The only thing that flopped was you in the talent show. You should have been in the bottom! I would love to see you lip sync. You'd the opposite of a lip sync assassin, you'd be a lip sync victim. Actually, no, the audience would be be the lip sync victims, since they'd be tortured to death watching you dance your white robotic ass.
MM: I DONT HAVE TO LIP SYNC AND ILL NEVER HAVE TO LIP SYNC. IF I WANTED TO LIP SYNC, YES I PROBABLY COULD GO OUT AND LIP SYNC BECAUSE I AM WHAT? SICKENING. YOU COULD NEVER LIP SYNC LIKE ME BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT THAT KIND OF GIRL! BABY EVERYTHING I HAVE IVE WORKED FOR AND GOTTEN MYSELF I HAVE BUILT MYSELF FROM THE GROUND UP YOU FUCKING BITCH!
Beannete Minete: Whatever you say, Madame Flopco. You think it's Madame Flopco's Drag Race but never forget that it's Caxina's Drag Race. Your meet and greet is coming to an end soon! Dumb bitch. Anyway, here are the results from Portugal. The Portuguese have awarded our 8 points to... Inquista! Our 10 points are awarded to... Elthize! Our fabulous 12 points are awarded to... ICHOLASEN!
MM: Thanks for your results, Portugal! It's been great to have you and we hope to see you compete again! We love you! I'm not talking about you, though, Beannete. You're not even tolerated.
Beannete: You're perfect, you're beautiful, you look like Taylor Swift... my ass! Not today, Satan! BYE!
MM: I'm supposed to be Bishop Lallana! Try again! Anyway, thanks Portugal. Now to Red Croatia! Hello Zadar.
Tereza Kesovija: Good evening Saint Dominico! It's me, Tereza Kesovija, EuroVoice legend, calling from Zadar. I have the results from Red Croatia.
MM: My favourite Croatia! Well love Red Croatia because it never makes us feel "blue"!
Tereza Kesovija: So true, so true. The strong and powerful women of Croatia have decided. Our 8 points go to... Inquista! Our 10 points go to... the Conch Kingdom! Our 12 points go to... PORTUGAL!
MM: Congratulations on your second 12 points, Portugal! Portugal and Icholasen are the only two countries to get two 12 points so far tonight. Thanks for your result, Red Croatia! Stay gorgeous, Tereza.
Let's take a look at the overall tally.
MM: Seems like Icholasen, Inquista and Conch Kingdom have settled into the top three! Will this change with 3 results left? Elthize making quite the comeback from that rough start. Portugal girl, we still see you too though.
-
MM: Koreaboos, it's time to put your lightsticks together! We'll be hearing from the centre of K-Pop, Reitzmag! Good evening, Reitzmag.
Yoo Jae Seok: Good evening Saint Dominico, it's Reitzmag calling!
MM: Yes, we hear you clearly over your great Wi-Fi. I have another good ladder joke, by the way. Why did the K-pop idol bring a ladder to the concert? Because they wanted to reach the high notes!
Yoo Jae Seok: I'm just glad to hear a joke that isn't about Asianization, so thank you. I have the vote from Reitzmag with me. Without wasting any more time, I'll announce them now. We present our 8 points to... the United Duchies. We present our 10 points to... Czech Slavia. Finally, we present our 12 points to... ELTHIZE!
MM: Congratulations to Elthize on their 12 points! Ichiko Aoba's vocals were smooth like "Butter", there's no denying that! Ugh, I'm still so sad over BTS disbanding because Jimin wanted to our Archbishop's pilot - hope the people of Reitzmag are coping well. Thank you Reitzmag! Kisses.
Ok, let's hear from Reitzmag's best friend, the Kingdom of Spain! ARRIBA!
Ruth Lorenzo: ¡Buenas noches, Europa!
MM: Hola Ruth! Hey, can you tell me why the tomato turn red when it visited Spain?
Ruth Lorenzo: ¡Ah dios mio! ¿Por qué?
MM: Because it saw a bull running towards it and realized it would "ketchup"!
Ruth Lorenzo: Jajaja! Anyway, ¡I have the results with me! Spain awards its 8 points to... ¡California! We award our 10 points to... ¡Inquista! And... we award our 12 points to... ¡ICHOLASEN! ARRIBA!
MM: ARRIBA! Wow, Icholasen's third 12 points of the night. Great stuff, Ruth! Thanks for bringing the results from Spain. Have a good night.
Alright, darlings, let's look at the tally one more time before we get our final result.
MM: As it stands, Icholasen is in the lead by 1 point over Inquista. The Conch Kingdom is in third with 77 points. It looks like only one of the top three can win, so we'll need to see how things shake out with only 1 result left.
-
MM: Let's not delay any further and get straight to our final result, shall we? I mean, we're used to waiting six months for EV results but a woman like me just doesn't have time for that. I have bills to pay! Let's hear from the United Duchies, who are deciding the entire fate of Europe tonight!
Lenny Henry: Hello Inquista! Hello Europe. I'm calling from the United Duchies with our results.
MM: Glad to hear it, Lenny. What have the people of the United Duchies decided?
Lenny Henry: The Duchian public have been eagerly voting. We have decided to give our 8 points to... Inquista. We give our 10 points to... Spain! We give our 12 points to... REITZMAG!
MM: And there we have it, everyone! Thank you the United Duchies, and thank you Lenny!
MM: It's official! Nancy Ajram has won EuroVoice 44: Showtime! Nancy's victory means back-to-back victories for Inquistan artists. This is the retribution we deserve for that nearly 3 year dry spell we had since 2020.
The Nicoleizian Joint Entry Team came in a close second, while our friends from the Conch Kingdom finished in third - the highest ever placement for them. Congrats on the Mishar Republic's debut finish in fifth place, and Portugal in sixth! We hope to see our friends from Portugal participate again. I have to admit, I did vote for them.
Well, so I guess this means we'll see you again in Saint Dominico sooner or later! Can't wait, my darlings. Hope you all had fun tonight and enjoyed this edition of EuroVoice. I had a lot of fun and I want to thank all the amazing artists and participating countries for putting on another strong edition of this contest that we all enjoy. Wishing you all lots of love until we see each other again.
We now invite Nancy Ajram to perform her song live for us one more time! Good night Europe. Kisses!
