The first live show of Unser Star für Oslo, the German selection process for the Eurovision Song Contest 2010 will be held on Tuesday. Over the last weeks, some of the original castings for the show have been presented during Stefan Raab's daily show TV Total.

However, most of the performers shown are not among those to compete in the live shows.
The first two live shows will be held on 2nd and 9th February with ten acts competing each. Five performers out of each heat will move forward to the next stage of the selection – the elimination rounds. After the semi final, two acts will remain to compete in the grand final on 12th March. Before the winner will be chosen, the German song for Oslo will be determined.
In 2009, Germany was represented by Alex Swings, Oscar Sings! with the song Miss kiss kiss bang. The duo finished 20th in the final with 35 points.
