After the announcement that Xavier Naidoo will not represent Germany in the upcoming Eurovision Song Contest, no further information about the country’s plans for the contest have been revealed.
However, pictures of twelve artists have been found on the servers of NDR’s official website eurovision.de, what could probably define a leaking list of the participants in the German national final (Unser Song für Stockholm).
