Three happy "wasps" from Georgia won last night this year's junior
Eurovision song contest held in southern Cypriot city of Limassol.
The three-kid Georgian group Bzikebi (wasps), all ten years old, got a total
of 154 points with their song Bzz..., 19 points ahead of Ukraine in the second
place. Lithuania got the third place with103 points.
The best young singers from 15 European countries took part in the final show
of the sixth junior Eurovision song contest, which was launched in Denmark in
2003.
Svante Stockselius, executive supervisor of the contest, said all the kids
aged from 10 to 15 delivered great performances.
"All of them are extraordinarily talented," Stockselius added.
The contest was broadcast live in all the participating countries. Televoters
and jury from each country gave points to their favorites.
All the profits from the televoting process this year will go to the world
children's fund UNICEF, said the organizers, to help children all over the
world, especially in Africa, who don't have clean water.
