Interesting Facts about Eurovision Song Contest

Eurovision has had its stars and its oddballs. One of the weirdest was in 1998 when Guido Horn, representing Germany refused to withdraw from the competition despite enormous pressure to do so.
It turned out that he became one of Eurovision's most memorable performances - his act included ringing bells, climbing all over the stage and finally jumping into the audience.

In the 55 Eurovision Song Contests there were 59 winners. In 1969 four countries tied for first place.

You are more likely to win Eurovision if you are a solo female artist. Throughout the years, there have been 27 female winners and only 7 men.
