MINSK, BELARUS – Most polls and predictions in Belarus (and abroad) consider Alexander Rybak’s bid “Accent” by girl band Milki, as the hot favourite for Eurovision 2015, and why not, since Rybak’s participation in the Eurovision Song Contest on behalf of Belarus is something that the government itself desired for many years (since 2009 when he triumphed in Moscow).
Recently Alexander Rybak got in Minsk where he continues preparations and rehearsals with his girls, Milki group and had some free time to walk in snowed Minsk. As a result, he posted a photo of his venture with the girls stating the following on Facebook
RYBAK’S STATEMENT
During my short visit in Belarus today, the girls showed some real Belarussian countryside. I loved it! After getting to know them, I can honestly say that I have never ever wanted so much this year, than for these girls to go participate in Eurovision with my song. Fingers crossed!
