On the twentieth of May, the 60th Eurovision Song Contest was held in Vienna, where 39 countries took part. Russia was represented by the young singer Polina Gagarina. Result: 2nd place and the love of the public. The girl was so moved by the support of the fans that she even burst into tears of happiness.
A month before the competition, the network joked: “Gagarina. Let's go!”, Recalling the famous phrase of the cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin before the flight. It is worth noting that Polina Gagarina has nothing to do with the cosmonaut except her surname. Unless she is also persistent and incredibly charming.
Gagarina's strong voice once became her hallmark when she entered a music school. Having performed the song by Whitney Houston, the girl won the admissions office with her timbre. A little later, charisma and vocal abilities helped the sophomore of the pop-jazz school to achieve success in the show "Star Factory-2".
Collaboration with Konstantin Meladze as a songwriter brought Polina several Golden Gramophone statuettes. As of 2015, the singer is 28 years old, she is married for the second time and has a son from her first marriage.
For the Eurovision Song Contest, Polina Gagarina chose the song “A million voices” by five authors from different countries. As an outfit, the singer chose a white dress with spaghetti straps with a puffy bottom.
White, according to Gagarina, is a symbol of spirituality and purity. The song itself also carries a positive energy. The meaning of the words: no matter who you are and where you were born, it is important that there is love and respect throughout the world. Before the trip, the singer asked fans to send her positive impulses. And it looks like it worked. Silver for Russia is a good result. The Swedish singer Mons Zelmerlev won the competition.
And the satisfied Polina gained even greater confidence in what she was doing. The future plans of the singer include shooting in a film with Dmitry Nagiyev and numerous musical projects.
