Ahead of the Junior Eurovision Song Contest set to take place tomorrow, we talked to Denislava and Martin from Bulgaria.
The duo discusses their idols, the message of their song, and how they work as a team to deliver their performances. Watch the full interview below:
We wish Denislava and Martin the best of luck at the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2021 in Paris on December 19th.
Who are Denislava and Martin?
Twelve-year-old Denislava and thirteen-year-old Martin are both from Dobrich, Bulgaria, and have been performing together for over 4 years. While both have been singing since they were five years old, Denislava splits her time between her pets and her friends, while Martin is a self-confessed bookworm. Both singers have performed in numerous concerts and festivals over the years.

Bulgaria debuted in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest in 2007. The country has never won the contest, and their best entry comes from 2014, when Krisia, Hasan and Ibrahim and their song “Planet of the Children” placed 2nd with 147 points. Bulgaria then went on to host the 2015 contest, in the capital Sofia. Their worst result was in 2008, when Krestiana Kresteva and her song “Edna Mechta” placed 15th with 15 points. Bulgaria have withdrawn multiple times from the contest, and were absent from 2009-2010, 2012-2013 and 2017-2020.
