A list of important men and women have just been presented on Eurovision.tv. They are important as they are the jury members for the 2015 Eurovision Song Contest which will decide half of the result of the contest. Take a look as to who can make your favourite win or lose. 

After each participating country presented their jury members to EBU a long checking process has taken place in order to make sure that none of the jury members are too close involved with any of the participants. The jury members decide half of the result and as such it is important that they remain objective.

The jury members had to be at least 16 years old, and they must be actively working on getting a career within the music industry. They also have to be citizen in the country they are jury member and it must not have been jury member within the past two years.
