Russia at Eurovision will be presented by the winner of the Voice project

The winner of the musical television project of the First Channel “Voice” Dina Garipova will introduce Russia at the Eurovision-2013 contest. This was announced by the director of public relations of the television channel Larisa Krymova, RIA Novosti reports. It is known that Garipova will perform with the song What if.

The first channel, which is the broadcaster of Eurovision-2013 in Russia, was supposed to independently determine the participant of the competition. Recall that Eurovision will be held in May 2013 in Sweden, since last year the Swedish singer Lorin became the winner.

Russia won Eurovision once in 2008. Then the winner was Dima Bilan with the song Believe.
