Serbian trio Moje3 have won this year’s Barbara Dex Award for the worst outfits on the stage of the Eurovision Song Contest.

The Barbara Dex Award, organised each year since 1997 by fansite eurovisionhouse.nl, has become a tradition among the fans of the contest who vote for the act they believe wore the worst outfit during their Eurovision performance. The Award is named after the 1993 Belgian representative whose awkward, self-made outfit made a lasting impression even though her song didn’t.

This year, Moje3, who represented Serbia, won by a landslide leaving Roman Cezar in second place followed by Moran Mazor from Israel in third.

Out of the 2747 valid votes cast, Moje3 received 35%. This is how the Eurovision fans voted:
1. Serbia – 967 Votes
2. Romania – 544 Votes
3. Israel – 296 Votes
4. Albania – 150 Votes
5. Montenegro – 110 Votes
6. Latvia – 79 Votes
7. F.Y.R. Macedonia – 65 Votes
8. Sweden – 49 Votes
9. Belarus – 45 Votes
10. Russia – 41 Votes


Thanks to Johnny Logan and Hold me now I fell in love with the Eurovision Song Contest, a love that's been going strong ever since with undiminished passion. My first memories date back to 1977 and the lyrics of Rock bottom, Dschinghis Khan and A ba ni bi are still engraved in my brain. I joined esctoday.com in 2006 as a junior editor after being invited by Barry Viniker, I soon became Senior Editor and during the 2007 contest in Helsinki I was appointed Head of Communications. Today I hold the post of Head of Human Resources and I am proud to be working with the best editorial team in the world.
