Star slammed
Viewers have branded Estonia representative Tommy Cash's song Espresso Macchiato as offensive.
Those watching the Eurovision song contest at home were not impressed and took to X to complain about it.
One person commented: “I’m with the Italians . That was downright offensive from Estonia.”
Another wrote: “Arguably one of the most offensive things if your are Italian but brilliant by espresso Machiatto!!”
While a third added: “Estonia song could definitely be described as racist and I'm not even Italian.”
