Open details about the National Selection for Eurovision-2025

General producer of the radio station 'Lux FM' Yevhen Feshak talked about the allocated amount of money for the participants of the National Selection for Eurovision-2025. According to him, a million hryvnias was allocated for the fees of the hosts and jury members, which will be evenly distributed among all. Thus, each host (Timur Miroshnychenko, Masha Efrosinina, Vasyl Baidak) and jury member (Jamala, Serhiy Tanchynets, Kateryna Pavlenko) will receive 166 thousand hryvnias each.

'If I'm not mistaken, they will be paid a million hryvnias among six people. Plus or minus,' Feshak said.

Feshak also stated that the winner of the Eurovision-2025 contest will be a representative from Israel. He explained this by saying that the singer Yuval Rafael survived during the Hamas attack, which drew public attention.

It should be noted that after the National Selection, which took place on February 8, the betting odds on Ukraine sharply declined. Ukraine has now dropped to 11th place after previously being in the top 5.

It is also worth noting that Pinchuk's production is expected to earn 10.5 million hryvnias from hosting Eurovision-2025. According to the agreement between the National Public Broadcasting Company of Ukraine ('Public Broadcasting') and 'Starlight Production' LLC, the content production for the song contest will be carried out. This agreement was signed on January 22.

The final of the National Selection took place on February 8, during which the representatives of Ukraine for Eurovision-2025 in Switzerland were determined. However, the contest was not without scandals.

According to the results of the audience and jury voting, the band Ziferblat was chosen as the representative of Ukraine at the 69th song contest. In second place was the band Molodi, and in third place was the singer Masha Kondratenko. At the same Time, the singer Hayat, who received the most votes from the jury, did not even secure a place in the top three after the audience votes were counted.
