PARIS, DECEMBER 19, ARMENPRESS. Armenian singer Malena won the 2021 Junior Eurovision Song Contest with her song Qami Qami, earning a grand total of 224 points from viewers and juries.
This is Armenia’s second win, after Vladimir Arzumanyan won in 2010 with Mama.
Runners-up Poland and hosts France scored 218 and 187 points respectively.
After the 14-year-old was crowned winner of Junior Eurovision 2021 in a live broadcast from La Seine Musicale in Paris, she spoke at a press conference and reflected on her one-year wait to get on stage because Armenia withdrew from the contest last year.
‘Everything happens for a reason, so I’m very thankful. I’m obsessed with Eurovision, it’s always been my dream to take part,” EBU quoted her as saying.
