Was Russia booed at Eurovision? (compare 2 videos)
The results of the first semifinal are being discussed on the Internet.
Many people though that Russia was booed when the results were being announced. Euroradio suggests that you compare the reaction of the audience to the fact that the representatives of Russia have made it to the final.

Representatives of 16 countries performed in the semifinal. Last year’s winner Dutch Emmelie de Forest opened the festival. The public could enjoy an incredible acrobatic performance by Hans Christian Andersen’ The Ugly Duckling while voting.
The public did not like the fact that Russia had made it to the final. The representatives of Russia were booed.

The final will be held on May 10. Members of the Big Five – Germany, Great Britain, Italy, France, Spain and Denmark will join the 20 finalists.
