So they are not embarassed by their stage antics in front of 170 million people, but only by their finish?

After the results of the contest became known, the Russian pop stars claimed they had been 'humiliated'.

(...yawn...) Oh! I'm sorry! Were you saying something?

Hey, I can understand why they feel humiliated: they only took third place in the European Music Festival!

That's like getting third place in a county hog calling contest, with the notable exceptions that:

1) The competitors in the hog calling contest actually possess some real talent, and,

2) The entries in the hog calling contest have some redeeming musical value and are more soothing to the ear than the submissions for the European Music Festival.

Wrong two words---sore losers. Not the girls so much as whoever wrote this sniveling, whining, "Waaaa! It's not fair!" article.

Oh. Do you suppose I could mail-order both of them? They can keep each other busy in the "on-deck circle" while I watch the game.

I guess there are no 'stars' that traditionally compete in this contest, kind of like 'European Idol' -since Tatu is a rookie group they must have been given a pass..

Russians are world class gold medal winners at whining, witness their Olympic Hockey team almost refusing to play last year because of 'judging unfairness' from Western countries (while their own judges were cheating!)

Right you are, and they should be spanked!

I'll do it! I'll do it! I'll do it! I'll do it!

They have an official web site. You can even legally download all their songs and videos. And look at their pictures.
