Germany celebrates third title at Eurovision - Photo Indrek Galetin (EBU)
[Videos] Oslo, Norway (GenevaLunch) - Germany’s 19-year-old Lena Meyer-Landrout is the new queen of the Eurovision 2010. The catchy, pop tune “Satellite”, sung in English, won the hugely popular European music contest 29 May.
While thousands celebrated in the streets of Germany, few celebrated in the UK. Josh Dubovie’s rendition of “That Sounds Good To Me,” was only able to gather 10 points, placing him last in the Eurovision final.
Ireland’s singer Niamh Kavanagh, a previous Eurovision winner, also failed to finish high up among the performers.
Switzerland’s votes went to Germany, Serbia and Albania.
Turkey came second in the Saturday night contest, followed by Romania.
Spain upstaged
Spain’s performance was disrupted by a Catalonian known as “Jimmy Jumper” who hopped on stage while Daniel Diges was singing “Algo Pequeñito”. The man, known for doing similar things in football games in Barcelona, was quickly detained.
The European Broadcasting Union, which produces Eurovision, ruled that Spain should have the right to sing again and Diges did so after the other performances had finished.
Spain finished 15th among the 25 competitors.

And the winner is: Germany
