After Bulgaria recieved the second place in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2014 (their first ever top 3 spot!) last night, there are big rumours about Sofia and Eurovision!
Junior Eurovision
Last night, Krisia, Hasan and Ibrahim recieved Bulgaria´s best result on an Eurovision event ever! They performed second after Belarus in the final of the Junior Eurovision Song Contest and climbed to the second place during the voting, despite the fact that Krisia was a bit sick during the Junior Eurovision week. Bulgaria, which didn´t participate in the 2012 and 2013 contest, came back as never before. Whole of Bulgaria was really happy about this, and shortly after this there came rumours that Bulgaria will join the Junior contest in 2015 too! Which sounds very legit, after this great result! There was a Tweet from the Bulgarian Eurovision account on Twitter which awnsered the question if they would come back next year too with:
" there are no doubts that we will ;) "

Eurovision Song Contest 2015?
After questions from enthousiastic Eurovision fans if they would return in the adult contest after this second place in the kids´ contest, their response sounded like they never stopped thinking about being in Vienna. In this year´s contest, the country withdrew because of the high costs to participate. This year they send a preliminary application to participate in Vienna. On 10 October however, they withdrew again for the same reason as in the 2014 contest: stupid financial reasons. But later, - here it comes - they confirmed on the 31th of October that they got extra time to solve their financial problems and try to participate by the EBU. Will they be able to do this? And when they don´t, might their second place be a big motivation for them to be there anyway?
Bulgaria debuted in the 2005 contest, but failed to be in the final every year, except for 2007, when Elitsa Todorova and Stoyan Yankoulov reached a great 5th place with 157 points. In 2013, when they participated for the last time, they didn´t reach the final and got stucked in the semi final with a 12th place with 45 points. See their last performance at Eurovision here:
As you can guess, Krisia with her second place is a Bulgarian hero now. She, Hasan and Ibrahim will arive in Bulgaria in a few minutes, where their placing will be celebrated. You can watch their arrive in Bulgaria on the Bulgarian Eurovision site: http://eurovision.bnt.bg/.
