Over the past two months, Wiwi’s readers have cast a total of 39,524 votes for their favorite Eurovision contestant. Polls closed at 11:59pm on May 28, on the eve of the live finale. The results have now been tallied and verified by an accountant (Wiwi’s sister), the artists’ agents have been called and the boxes of tissue have been prepared for all of the losers. Here we g0.

Europe has forecast that Turkey’s maNga will win Eurovision 2010. They’ve consistently led this poll since mid-April and finished with an impressive 31% of all votes. Three weeks ago, Spain’s Daniel Diges temporarily overtook the Turkish rockers, but in the end he has to settle for second place with 27% of all votes.

Following an incredibly convincing performance during the May 25 semi-final, Iceland’s Hera Bjork jumped all the way from 28th place (with just 0.12% of all votes) five days ago to third place with 22% today. Germany, Armenia, Israel, Azerbaijan, Romania, Albania and Serbia round out the Top 10.

There have been big movements this week in Wiwi’s search for Eurovision’s Next Top Male Model. Last week it looked like this was a battle between three men: Poland’s Marcin Mrozinski (the hottest man to ever drink from the Vistula), Israel’s Harel Skaat (the jock from Jerusalem) and Norway’s Didrik Solli-Tangen (he who makes women in Oslo have orgasms). They’ve been one, two and three in this competition since it started. But not any more.

After switching his competition photograph, Spain’s Daniel Diges—who looks pretty good in a pair of briefs—has jumped into the lead.

This week’s second-place finisher has come from even further afield. Last week he was in fifth place with only 6% of all votes. This week he’s quadrupled his share and claims 24%. He’s one of Turkey’s biggest stars, and now he’s set to become one of Europe’s. He is Turkey’s Ferman Akgul.

Poland, Israel and Norway are still in a strong position and remain in third, fourth and fifth place.

After Wiwi posted shirtless photos of this week’s sixth place finisher, he saw a surge in votes. He’s the Beauty from Belgrade and he’s still in the running to become Eurovison’s Next Top Male Model. He is…Milan Stankovic.

And now for the rest….

Wiwi will NOT be eliminating anyone this week. Instead, he will eliminate two people next week, leaving us with 13 finalists. Wiwi will post THREE photos of each finalist and all votes will be erased. THE FINAL BEGINS ON MAY 1! If you have photos of your favorite contestants that you would like Wiwi to use in the finals, please e-mail him at wiwi.bloggs@gmail.com by April 28!
