They censored Ireland since two male dancers portray a gay couple and Albania because the singer got tattoos.

It is apparently illegal in China to show tattoos on tv.

Now imagine if Ireland or Albania won. Whoo-ee, how would China deal with that? Would they do like the Middle East countries did when Israel won in the late 70's by telling the bold lie of the runner-up (Belgium?) being the winner? I wonder if they maintained that charade with the next contest being held in Israel...?
