EBU is investigating an incident related to Dutchman Joost Klein – ESCBEAT

An unexpected scandal occurred during the dress rehearsal today (Friday, May 10, 2024).
Dutch singer Joost Klein was just about to go on stage as the 5th song in the running order

However, for an unknown reason, Joost Klein had to miss his official rehearsal.
After a short technical break, the stage team removed the Dutch artist’s props for the stage.
Instead, Israeli act Eden Golan Tali from Luxembourg followed

The EBU published the following comment:

We are currently investigating an incident reported to us involving the Dutch artist. He will not rehearse until further notice. We have no further comment at this time and will update in due course

Exact details have yet to be announced. But it seems the EBU is preventing the Netherlands from taking the stage until the investigation is complete.
Only 25 countries took part in the dress rehearsals.

We will keep you updated with further details once the EBU makes its final decision

26 years old Joost Klein is a Dutch Rapper and singer. He was internally selected to represent the Netherlands Eurovision 2024 with the song “Europepa”
