KiN Entertainement at Eurovision - Fornebu
KiN reporters were treated to a well coordinated first semi-final of the 2010 Eurovision Song Contest held at the Telenor Arena in Fornebu, Oslo this Tuesday evening. The program hosts managed the process to the letter and ensured that the enormous stage for the contest was kept active throughout the evening. Artists representing the ten qualifying countries later arrived at the press centre for a joint winners' press conference where their positions for the final day were revealed.

The ten qualifiers picked their positions in a tantalizing draw that resulted in the final running order (including countries directly qualified for the Final; tonight's qualifiers in bold):

Vukašin Brajić, representing Bosnia & Herzegovina was the first to qualify for the finals. He assured the public that he will give 120% at the finals and that he only managed a 90% goal at the semis.

Olia Tira of Sun Stroke Project from Moldova said he would climb the highest building in Oslo and sing their song as loud as possible if they won the finals. It was pomp and shine at the semi finals. KiN will be at the second semi final and the final show. Tickets are still available and can be purchased at the Billettservice hence no reason to evade this great event if one is able.
