High hopes were set on Israel as Hovi Star, the Israeli representative, was sent to record a version of Somebody out there, Ella Daniel’s song from the final of Rising Star 2016. However, it was decided that the Israeli entry will be a revamped version of the song that was chosen during the grand final of the show, Made of stars

The revamped version will feature significant changes as the team behind the song will try to get the best out of it in time for the Head of Delegations meeting that will be held in a week from today.

One of the main reasons that Made of stars remains the Israeli entry is the fact that the public at home voted in favour of this song.
