jman 56 Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 5 minutes ago, Bellatrix said: One of the big annual questions who will be next years hosts. We already have two who are tipped to be the hot favorites to host the contest in Ukraine 2017. They are Zlata Ognevich and Timur Miroshnychenko who are both quite popular in Ukraine. As you know Zlata represented Ukraine back in 2013 in Malmö and Timur is a television host and commentator in Eurovision 2016. They both hosted Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2013.  As long as there is another chance for a shirtless Mans, im fine with him.

Bellatrix 34,639 Posted June 24, 2016 Author Share Posted June 24, 2016 Instead of 16th, 18th and 20th of May the preliminary dates for Eurovision 2017 have been changed to 9th, 11th and 13th of May. Also we now have so far 20 confirmed countries: Austria Belgium Denmark Estonia Finland France Germany Greece Hungary Ireland Israel Latvia Netherlands Norway Poland Portugal Spain Sweden Switzerland Ukraine The Brexit doesn't have any impact on a UK participation, if anyone is wondering.

Bellatrix 34,639 Posted August 6, 2016 Author Share Posted August 6, 2016 Despite the Ukrainian victory Russia isn't giving up. We will see them in Eurovision next year as well! With the right team and the right song our Eurovision hunk Sergey Lazarev is open to represent Russia again (hopefully with a little less clothes)Â and bring ESC to Moscow in 2018. Would he be able to pull a Dima Bilan? Statistically it is Russias turn next year if you look at some of their previous placings: 2006: 2nd 2007: 3rd 2008: 1st 2015: 2nd 2016: 3rd 2017: 1st?

Bellatrix 34,639 Posted September 14, 2016 Author Share Posted September 14, 2016 After making a comeback in 2016 it is highly unlikely that Bosnia & Herzegovina will stay in Eurovision, due financial issues As usual, Andorra, Luxembourg and Monaco aren't interested in coming back.

Bellatrix 34,639 Posted September 23, 2016 Author Share Posted September 23, 2016 37 countries have confirmed participation for next years Eurovision so far.
