Rusiaaaa ,....... LOL.....
@миdzя
Cool, thanks 
I guess I knew it was like that, but wasn't really sure. That example with Patricia Kaas really removes all doubt, doesn't it. I'm just curious as I have recently got my hands on Koldun's last CD and I think it's great!!
Ani Lorak is the best there!!!! Dima Bilan's hair looks vile.
Koldun did perform at the award show before, dunno if he was nominated at the time. I reckon someone like Koldun could be nominated.

Keith, he could.
Look at Ani Lorak - she's technically Ukranian )))
The main thing is that a song should be in Russian language.
Last year Patrisia Kaas was awarded as she had sung a song in Russian.
@Keith: Interesting question, I was wondering the same thing...
Just of of interest: Could an artist like Dima Koldun be nominated in an award show like this or would he be considered a foreigner in the Russian music industry since he is technically Belarusian?
SEREBRO is my favorite band ever in the contest and also one of my top entries and song ever.I love song#1 and I am listening to it almost every day till now.
No great artists here except Kirkorov. He's a funny guy, lol.
