Ukraine will send Anastasia Dymyd to Nice

She fought off strong competition from four other young artists: POLINA BABIY, Anastasia Bielibova, Denis Hryshchuk, and 3’beauties.

The show was hosted by the legendary commentator Timur Miroshnychenko and singer and presenter Anna Tulieva.

The results were determined by a 50/50 public vote/jury split, with TV presenter Ihor Kondratyuk, singer-songwriter Jerry Heil, and rapper and songwriter Alyona Alyona sitting on the jury.

Nine-year-old Anastasia Dymyd is from the village of Hoshiv, in the Ivano-Frankivsk region of Ukraine, and in a recent interview said she seeks to bring joy to people and hopes that her voice leaves a mark in the hearts of her audience.

Anastasia dreams of becoming a world-famous singer, strives for self-improvement and experiments musically because she is convinced that the creative process is all about constant self-development.

‘I have been working hard for this moment all my life!’ said Anastasia.
