Ukraine – Tonight the first televised show of the Eurovision season 2011 will be broadcast on Ukraine’s 1TV. Two weeks ago the artists competing to represent Ukraine in the Eurovision Song Contest 2011 in Düsseldorf were separated into groups of 7. Tonight the first semi-final will be held and broadcast at 16:50 CET. Three qualifiers will be chosen by the public and an additional one by a jury. These three acts will then be able to compete in the big final in Kiev. I tried my best to understand the article on 1Tv’s website and I’m pretty sure that this is the list of artists to compete tonight:
1.Yakov Smirnov – Im going home
2.Zaklyopk – Ou la la
3.El Kravchuk – Моя надежда (moja nadeschda)
4.Kristina Kim – Victim of my love
5.Elena Korneeva – Why didn’t say goodbye
6.Inna Voronova – TBA
7.Daria Medovaya – Infinity
Zaklyopki are no strangers to the Ukrainian national final “Національний відбір”. They came second in 2009 and 8th in 2010, when El Kravtchuk also participated.
A webcast of the show will be available here or here.
The show starts 16:50 CET and 17:50 Ukrainian time.
