Singer Jasmine to represent Russia in "Eurovision"
Last year First Channel organized open choice of "Eurovision" contest participant for first time. Preparations to "Eurovision-2006" supposedly should start in the beginning of autumn. But January is over and there have been no official announcement about start of selection while national selection tours has already ended in majority of countries.
There are rumors in show-business that Russian participant of "Eurovision-2006" has been selected secretly. Her name is Sara Semendueva - a wife of "Eldorado" supermarkets` and restaurants` owner Vyacheslav Semenduev - more known as singer Jasmine. By some information relationships in the family became worse last year and Sara wished to divorce. In order to save the family the husband made several prestige and expensive presents to wife. One of them was granted MTV music award for best singer. Participation in current "Eurovision" contest is another present.
