Louane's Eurovision Loss Sparks Outrage in France

Louane competed in Eurovision 2025 with her song 'Maman' and finished seventh despite being the pre-contest favorite.
Her relatively low public vote of 50 points, contrasted with a third-place jury ranking, caused fans and media in France to react strongly.
The voting discrepancy highlights ongoing issues with Eurovision’s jury and public voting system amid concerns of political and cultural influences.
Le Parisian media described the result as a bitter disappointment for Louane’s supporters, emphasizing that France’s quest for a Eurovision victory continues after 48 years.
This outcome may prompt France to reconsider its Eurovision strategy by balancing artist recognition and authentic connection with broader audiences.
