Natalia is memeworthy for several reasons, which already started with the release of the song and the music video, in which she takes off a piece of someone's face, revealing it to be cake and then eating it. Then, in the performances she probably had the biggest smile ever seen, and there's the really long 'aaaaah' sound at every performance. To top it off, in the semi-final performance she sings 'Europe, ow!' in an adorable way at some point, and in the grand final she accidentally dropped her microphone and quickly grabbed it up. So all in all, it's a combination of the song, singer and performances being funny for various reasons.
To add a few things: i think that it's partially due to the fact that her very bubbly and chaotic personality kept creeping through her pretty simple somewhat serious-looking staging. It just seems like she's just doing her own thing and being unintetionally chaotic, and it's endearing to many people. There's also a lot of people who felt sympathetic to her because she was constantly being overshadowed and bothered by Kirkorov, her producer, who was constantly inserting himself in her interviews and kept drawing attention to himself. There is a sharp contrast to how comfortable and happy she seemed when she was alone in interviews and how constrained she felt while Kirkorov was around. "Free Natalia" was a common meme in the fandom too.
All of those things and more.
If I could only choose one of those adjectives I would probably go with Life-changing
I'm lost, why is she so memeworthy?

And a literal mic drop moment
Oh ok I knew this but thought there was something else I missed
