Ukraine: Shady lady tops charts

This week, Ani Lorak's Shady Lady tops the official Ukrainian Top 40 airplay chart, bulleting from spot #5 last week. Ani thus becomes the first Ukrainian Eurovision contestant to achieve that before the contest.

Shady lady entered the Ukrainian Top 40 Airplay chart six weeks ago, reached spot #5 last week and now it can be seen at number one. No other Eurovision entry has achieved that in Ukraine before the contest itself. In the same chart Ruslana, the 2004 winner, falls from #2 to #5 after peaking at number 1 with Vidlunnjya Mrij and Tina Karo'sl (Ukraine 2006) Poljus Pritjazenija remains at #24 after spending 22 weeks in the chart.

Recently Ani was in Belgium to promote her Eurovision entry and she was caught on camera by Eurovision.tv. The popular Ukrainian singer tells the fans why they should vote for her song in Belgrade.

Great song, and will probably be a great performance as well. As for Sweden - great performance and a very plain and dull song... (since lots of people seem to talk about the competition between the two..)

ANOMC, if your predictions are so reliable, why don't u invest your money in the lottery or something like that? Or make some money working as an astrologist or fortune-teller.

The fact that you keep on posting that makes it clear about your insecurity of Charlotte winning. You obviously are trying to convince yourself now :(

And I know what you're going to say, so don't bother posting it, we already know you think Sweden will win. Don't make yourself look any more foolish than you already do :(

OK, you're just taking the piss now. If you're that inmature that you can't accept an apology from someone who hasn't actually done much wrong in the first place, then I think you have some serious issues.

You called us childish for laughing at a names, you then called dustin "dustbin", you then refuse to accept a genuine apology, I think you're the childish one. I hope I never go down to your low level of ignorance :(
