Serbian singer Luke Black has been given a helping hand by audience members attending Eurovision after he was forced to censor his performance.
The 30-year-old took to the stage in Liverpool tonight with his song Samo mi se spava, which is about being isolated from the world.
While one of his lines involved the words ‘Hello, game over – b***’ it obviously couldn’t be sung as part of the broadcast.
Despite this fans jumped in at the exact moment and could be heard during the live broadcast yelling out the word.
It was a detail that couldn’t be missed by many watching on at home, who noticed the colourful language managing to slip in.
‘If you listen carefully, you can hear the audience yell “b****,” which Luke Black had to cut out of his song,’ journalist Scott Bryan posted on Twitter.
‘The whole arena screaming b**** with Luke Black. LMAO that was epic,’ someone else said.
People at home also participated.
Another shared: ‘Luke Black I know you’re too busy singing right now but I yelled “b***” at the screen, you’re welcome, and you’re doing great sweetie.’
Previously speaking about the song, Luke said he had written it in just 25 minutes during the pandemic.
‘I had an initial idea of a mantra before the pandemic saying, ‘I just want to sleep for a long time”,’ he told NME.
‘There was a moment in 2019 where I was talking to my mum and I had a very intense conversation and said, “Listen, there is so much pressure and so much negative energy” – you could feel something was coming up.
‘I just really wanted to go back home because I’d been living in London for a couple of years. I just wanted to sleep and play video games. I just couldn’t handle the world. Then that all only became more so when the pandemic hit.’
He added that he saw the song as a ‘wake-up call’ and said it was a point of difference in the competition.
‘I know that Eurovision is quite happy, flashy and emotional, but it always has a hopeful note,’ he explained.
