The Russian singer Dima Bilan won Eurovision song contest, which took place in Belgrade (Serbia) this weekend.
Eurovision is baaad. It has ambitions to be the Olympic Games of music, but really it's a contest for second-sort European pop music. Unfortunately the quality of music is so ridiculous that the whole thing looks surreal. The idea is that people watch it on TV and vote for their favorite song, but as the majority of the audience comes from Russia and Eastern Europe it was quite easy for Dima Bilan to win.
So, who is Dima Bilan then?
