Time is coming for one of the worst yearly tv events: the eurovision song contest... and they are doing a special this time as it\'s the 50th year that they do it....
It\'s in the Ukraine this time, and as usual we dutchies try to get ourselves into it through the preselection rounds.
My observations....
Major chanche for winning: Turkey again... and it\'s not about the song or act this time. It always helps when you get a major artist to perform in this. I\'ve never heard of the singer (Gulseren), but she\'s very popular in france (telephone voting), which will give a nice boost in votes.
If you want to know how she looks like, she played in a dutch TV movie (Fast Forward to around 1:10:00 on the timer)
Funny thing is that the director wanted Sezen Aksu to play her role, but she asked to do it herself
