Marie N third, Roberto Meloni fifth
Latvia: Lauris Reiniks wins Strictly come dancing!
The show started on February 4th and continued for ten weeks. Each week a pair, consisting of a popular Latvian artist and a professional ballroom dancer, was voted home. Marie N, the Eurovision 2002 winner, finished third, Roberto Meloni, this year's participant with Bonaparti.lv finished fifth. Lauris Reiniks, who represented Latvia at the 2003 Eurovision Song Contest as member of FLY, won last night's final together with partner Alexandra Sacha Kurusova. A total of 103.000 votes were received, which is considered a record number by Latvian standards.
Bonaparti.lv were present as well to perform Questa Notte, this year's Latvian entry for Helsinki.

Very bad attempt for Italians wanna be 
Ridicillous
Latvia is in my top3 this year....top3 of the worst, that is.
Good grief, I dislike the Latvian song so badly.
But who knows, it will stand out, and sometimes Europe is surprisingly silly..
@ Paul VLC
I love this song too! It's different, it's sweet and these guys are unconventional and funny. Besides Latvia never bores us, they keep daring by sending something different every year. Honestly, I prefer that to "recipes"
Good luck Latvia, keep surprising us!!!
Well... I'm the only one who likes this song? Nice language (but come on... Latvia singing in Italian, still can't believe it LOL), not bad sound and wonderful voices. At least, it has quality.
I doubt about their qualification for the Final, but they have my support. Good luck!
@I am the last diva
Child, do you really think you know what hate actually is?
