The Netherlands' singer was barred from rehearsals on Friday night while the event organizer, European Broadcasting Union, is investigating an unspecified "backstage incident" involving Klein, according to the BBC. The juries who watch these rehearsals to determine scores for the finale were shown a taped performance of Klein's from earlier in the week in his absence.
据英国广播公司报道,这位荷兰歌手在周五晚上被禁止排练,而活动组织者欧洲广播联盟正在调查一起涉及克莱因的未指明的“后台事件”。观看这些排练以确定结局分数的陪审团在克莱因缺席的情况下观看了本周早些时候克莱因的录音表演。
Klein's uncertain status in the competition is noteworthy as, per the BBC, his song "Europapa" — which is dedicated to his parents, both of whom died when Klein was young — is "considered one of the front-runners at this year's contest."
克莱因在比赛中的不确定地位值得注意,因为据英国广播公司报道,他的歌曲《Europapa》“被认为是今年比赛的领跑者之一”,这首歌是献给他的父母的,他们都在克莱因年轻时去世了。
Onlookers first noticed something was amiss during the first dress rehearsal at Malmö Arena in Sweden on Friday. The singer's props were set up on stage when someone with the production instructed them to be removed. Then, his performance was skipped over, and Israel's entrant Eden Golan took the stage.
周五,在瑞典马尔默竞技场举行的第一次彩排中,观众们第一次注意到了一些问题。当制作人员指示拆除这位歌手的道具时,他们在舞台上设置了这些道具。然后,他的表演被跳过,以色列选手伊登·戈兰上台。
The EBU issued a statement half an hour before the second dress rehearsal explaining Klein's absence in the wake of an "ongoing" investigation, according to reports.
据报道,欧洲广播联盟在第二次彩排前半小时发表声明,解释克莱因在“正在进行”的调查后缺席的原因。
"While the investigation continues the EBU has decided that Joost Klein will not perform during Dress Rehearsal 2 of the competition which is voted on by juries in the 37 participating countries," an EBU statement read. "His performance from Semi Final 2 will be used instead. We have no further comment at this time and will update in due course."
