Armenia: Sirusho composes a song for Vlad and Nico

After the hugely successful Eurovision Preview party in London, Armenian representative Sirusho flew to Paris for a private party organised by OGAE France. Sirusho was met by hundreds of fans and many media representatives, sang, danced and gave interviews.

On 29th April, Sirusho was a guest at the Le Garden Club in Paris which was preceded by a press conference where the young Armenian singer spoke to the French press and media. When asked which acts she considers to be her biggest rivals in the contest, Sirusho said: " Eurovision is not a competion for me! It's rather a musical festivity where different genres and musical cultures come together. We are all different. There are entries I like and some entries I dislike. But that's a matter of taste. In any case, this is a very enriching musical experience for me."

What were her impressions from the UK Eurovision Preview party? Sirusho was very impressed by the Romanian duo, Nico and Vlad Mirita. She revealed that on the night she composed a song especially for them, which she will present to them as soon as the arrangement is finalised. Is competing against a puppet a problem for her? "Using a puppet to sing doesn't really matter for me. It's a personal choice. Each contestant has his/her way of expression. And I respect it." Puppet and singer met in London, as guests of esctoday.com at La Scala and Dustin told Sirusho he would be happy if she won and that he would keep his fingers crossed for her.

Apart from a very successful musician and singer, Sirusho is also a student at the Yerevan University's Foreign Affaires and Diplomacy school. Is there any chance she might drop singing to pursue a diplomatic career? " I will never quit singing" she says "I have already achieved the ultimate honour to be the song ambassador of Armenia at Eurovision. It is an international gathering and somehow each participant becomes an ambassadors but in a more romantic way through singing and dancing! The best way to bring peace on earth."

Today, Sirusho continues her promotour in Berlin and then will go to the her last stop which will be Prague.

the videolinks from Galandar are excellent. i really enjoyed watching them. as to some positive relations between armenia and Azerbaijan - the worst joke ever read here.

You must admit that this year Armenia will be a very serious rival to MANY contestants. Call it Jesc or whaterver comdey but it rules many polls and betting odds and im sure it has made a GREAT interest towards it! So u like the lyrics or not doesnt really matter.Just lets wait for ESC and see what happens okay?

Armenia has really LOTS of chanves to win ESC 2008. I hope Sirusho wont miss them,to have a great show and sexy looking which she has.im calm for back vocals coz 2 singers are really great in their job!

Good luck Sirusho!
Yerevan 2009! :)

@ Sergio
I was gonna say there that actually don't mind the Russian entry this year there lol hit it too early. I get why people wouldn't like it though. I do prefer Armenia to it though, and Armenia is definitely one of the entries that has really grown on me since the first listen
