Iceland? Didnt they have to cancel their act due to corona?
One band member has covid, yes. But no one is eliminated from the Contest because of that.

All countries had to record a live performance back in March as a back-up. This is the performance Australia used on Tuesday since they couldnt travel to Europe.

Each rehearsal on the Eurovision stage during the past 12 days has been recorded as well so Iceland will show one of those.

Duncan Laurence, the reigning champion, has tested positive for covid.

He performed his new single on Tuesdays show (after testing negative) and was supposed to perform his Eurovision winning song on Saturday. Poor bloke. Waiting 2 years for this only to get sick. They test everyone in the Eurovision bubble every day more or less.

So far I haven't seen a joke entry. Sure some heavily inspired Disney, Lady Gaga, Arianna Grande, Marina type etc. but nothing that really made me go WTF.
