After winning the 2008 Russian national final Dima Bilan is in for a rematch. He came second in 2006 with the song Never Let You Go – will he make it this time?
26-year-old Dima Bilan is a well-known name among Eurovision fans as he almost managed to give Russia its first victory in 2006. He was one of the favourites to win the Russian 2008 national final, but it ended up being quite a close competition before he was announced as being the winner.
For Dima it is going to be a busy year as aside from Eurovision he has already released one album, in Russian and is currently working on two others: one in Spanish and one in English!
Below you can watch his Eurovision entry Believing.
