Sergey in Eurovision

Sergey Lazarev tried to participate at the 2008 Eurovision Song Contest when he competed in the Russian national final with his entry Flyer, but lost out to Dima Bilan who went on to represent Russia in Belgrade and gave Russia its 1st Eurovision victory.

The Russian star had to wait for 8 years in order to grace the Eurovision stage.

In 2016 he was selected via an internal selection in order to fly the Russian flag at the 2016 Eurovision Song Contest. He won the public televoting and placed 3rd after the combined jury/televoting deliberation with his epic entry  You are the only one.

Last year Sergey returned to the Eurovision Song Contest for the second time. Lazarev represented Russia at the 2019 Eurovision Song Contest in Tel Aviv with Scream, achieving an honorable 3rd place in the Grand Final, thus equalling his ESC 2016 result.

Both Sergey’s Eurovision entries have been produced and composed by the Eurovision Dream Team ( Dimitris Kontopoulos, Philip Kirkorov, Fokas Evangelinos and Ilias Kokotos).
