BTRC hosted their national final, Nationalny Otbor 2019, in which 100% jury vote unanimously decided that ZENA will represent Belarus in Eurovision 2019. She will now sing the song “Like It” after scoring 69 out of 70 points from the seven-person Belarussian jury.
Belarussian broadcaster BTRC decided to open to a 100% jury vote, completely negating the public vote. Instead, a seven-person jury decided the result, including Dmitry Koldun who achieved Belarus’ best place in Eurovision history with 6th in 2007 with the song “Work your magic”. The national final co-host was Teo who also represented Belarus in Eurovision 2014 with the song “Cheesecake”.
