Today at 21:00h CET (00:00h Yerevan time) the Grand Final of the
54th Eurovision Song Contest will take place in Moscow’s gigantic
Olimpiyskiy Arena, official website of the Eurovision 2009 Song
Contest informs.
25 singers and groups from 25 countries have qualified for Europe’s
favorite music show.
There have been some changes in the voting of the 2009 Eurovision
Song Contest Final as for the first time in years, the winner won’t
be decided solely by televote. In contrast, a mixture of 50% televote
and 50% jury will be used.
For this purpose, national juries consisting of 5 music experts have
gathered in the 25 participating countries that will rank the songs in
Eurovision style, giving 12 points to their favorite song, 10 points
to their second favorite etc. The results of the 5 jury members will
then be added up and will account for 50% of the country’s votes. Those
results will then be combined with the televote results.
This year Armenia is represented by sisters Inga and Anush. They will
perform 9th in the Grand Final.
