Ilsur Metshin: "We were all rooting for Dina Garipova – she's a smarty"
(KZN.RU, May 20, by Rosa Galeyeva) Reaching the top five of the European musical Olympus is a great achievement. "We were all rooting for Dina Garipova, she's a smarty, and we have no complaints about her performance. The song itself might have had more “schticks”, visual and dance elements that would have made her performance more memorable," Ilsur Metshin commented on Tatarstan's female singer's performance in the Eurovision-2013 contest at today's Business Monday.
It is worth recalling that Dina Garipova, who represented Russia at Eurovision-2013, made it to the top five, finishing in the fifth place. Latvia and Estonia got the highest score of 12 points; the United Kingdom, Ireland, and Slovenia -10 points; and Serbia and Belarus scored 8 points each.
