Marko Kon and Milaan will be performing the song 'Cipela' in Moscow under position #4 in the 2nd semi-final.
The singer Marko Kon was born in 1972 and formed his first band from the age of nine years old. He plays the clarinet as well as the pipe, saxophone, guitar, bass guitar and the drums. After meeting a man named Aleksander Kobac, they formed one of the most successful teams in the Serbian music industry. One interesting fact now about Marko is that he was born on the same day, the same year and in the same city as Zeljko Joksimovic.
Milaan Nikolić was born in Jagodina, but spent most of his childhood growing up in Paris, where he studied music. After finishing his studies of the accordion at his Secondary Music School in Pancevo, Milaan graduated from the Music Conservatory in Paris. Milaan now both lives and works in the country's capital Belgrade, where he has entered numerous competitions.
This year's Serbian National Final did not have any favourites in the build up to the show, but many Eurovision fans would liked to have had seen the Beauty Queens represent the country as they were the backing singers for Marija Serifovic in 2007 when they country won their debut Eurovision.
Serbia are doing too well in the online polls and therefore not one of the bookmaker's favourites to win in Moscow.
The Beauty Queens (ESC 2007, Serbia) made a return to the Serbian National Final as they represented the country as backing singers for Marija Serifovic. Ivana Selakov was once a member of the Beauty Queens and she entered as a separate act.

DIARMUID'S THOUGHTS
Quite an unusual entry from Serbia as we have had ballads from the country in previous years, so this makes a nice change. It is quite a fun song and could sneak its way into the final.
PREDICTION
Should qualify and keep up the country's 100% record in the Eurovision final appearances.
