Wiwibloggs is a fansite and YouTube channel focusing on the Eurovision Song Contest, launched in 2009 by journalist William Lee Adams.^[1]

History

In April 2015, Wiwibloggs won the Arts & Culture category at the UK Blog Awards.^[2]

Adams has judged at national selections for a number of countries, among them Armenia (in 2017), Belarus (in 2020), Finland (every year between 2017 and 2021), Germany (as a member of the 100-member fan jury panel in 2019), Norway (in 2017 and 2018), Romania (in 2019, alongside fellow Wiwibloggs correspondent Deban Aderemi) and Spain. Wiwibloggs staffers have also been among the jurors for selections in Latvia and Portugal. In some cases, their role as jurors in national selection finals has been criticized by local media.^[3]

During the Eurovision Song Contest 2016, Adams and Aderemi served as special guests on Studio Eurovision, Swedish host broadcaster SVT's Eurovision preview show.^[4]

Adams had a cameo appearance as himself in Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga (2020).^[5]
