• Sex as an Elixir of Youth: How Billionaire Calouste Gulbenkian Tried to Extend His Life Through a Conveyor Belt of Mistresses

  Calouste Gulbenkian entered history as a brilliant entrepreneur and philanthropist. However, his personal archives, declassified in Lisbon, and detailed research by modern biographers (such as Jonathan Conlin) paint a portrait of a deeply flawed, tyrannical, and mentally unstable man...

It is known that famous Armenian showman and singer Aram MP3 will represent Armenia at Eurovision 2014 Song Contest, which will be held in the Danish capital city Copenhagen.    

Below is an excerpt from Oikotimes.com’s interview with Aram.

When were you approached by Armenian national broadcaster? Did you accept the offer immediately?

It was a real surprise for me, New Year surprise. I got this offer from AMPTV in December and of course accepted it. Though it’s a huge responsibility I’m ready to go for it and try to bring the show to our wonderful country. 

Do you know how your song will look like?

Will it be entirely in English or there will be a part in some other language?Now many songs are being composed by different local and European composers, also by me. Together with AMPTV creative team we‘ll choose the best one for me. Don’t know yet it will be totally English or Armenian song, mix of Armenian and English, but I’m sure it won’t be in Korean. 

Are you planning to visit some other national finals after your present your song? Do you plan to go to Eurovision concert in Amsterdam?

Hope so, it’s the biggest party-concert before Eurovision, so we’ll try to get there. Of course as soon as song is ready to public we’ll try to spread it through Europe.

Since the two semifinals format was introduced, this year the number of countries that will participate is the lowest. How do you feel about it?

It doesn’t change anything; we still have to compete and try to be in top 10 in semi-finals. And still there will be 25/6 countries in final. Difficult competition as always.

Do you thing that Armenia and Azerbaijan will give some points to each other this year?

Don’t think so, but hope one day there will be total peace in the world and kindness will rule the world. 

Things in green-room can get really tense. Since you finished med school, do you think you will be helpful in case of emergency?

Ha! Of course, I’ll be the first aid of Green Room I wonder who will be my fist aid… Hope she will be beautiful
