Life after Helsinki 2007 Eurovision

More qualifiers in Moldova. The very last ones for this season 2013, how time flies! It's almost over! The freaky thong made it, and this second semi was won by the local CatCat or Paola & Chiara, Crisitina & Karizma. The final will take place on Saturday night and give us the last entry for the Eurovision 2013.... unless Italy keeps as still waiting for the confirmation on the song until later.
