Renars Kaupers, singer of the Latvian band Brainstorm, and Katrina Leskanich, winner of the Eurovision Song Contest 1997, will be hosting Congratulations, the show honouring the 50th anniversary of the Eurovision Song Contest. This surprising news was announced by Danish broadcaster DR.

Danish broadcaster DR selected Renars Kaupers and Katrina Leskanich to guide the spectators through the history of the Eurovision Song Contest on 22 October in Copenhagen, a slightly surprising choice.

Renars Kaupers represented Latvia at the Eurovision Song Contest in 2000 as singer of the band Brainstorm. With the song My star, Brainstorm finished third in Stockholm. In 2003 Renars hosted the Eurovision Song Contest in Riga together with Marie N, who won the contest for Latvia with I wanna the year before.

Renars Kaupers will be accompanied by Katrina Leskanich. Together with The Waves she won the Eurovision Song Contest in 1997 with the song Love shine a light.
