Theatrical vocalist Kobi Marimi will represent Israel in this year’s Eurovision, after being crowned the winner of Israeli music contest reality TV show Rising Star for Eurovision. Last year’s “Rising Star” winner Netta Barzilai went on to win the 2018 Eurovision contest with her song “Toy,” securing Israel the role of host for this year’s event. This will be the third time the contest is held in Israel.
