    EUROVISION SEMI-FINAL ONE: SEE THE RESULTS

    Russia makes it through, but singers get booed by crowd...

    11:25, Wednesday, 07 May 2014

    The results are in from the first semi-final of this year's Eurovision
    Song Contest in Denmark.

    Russia's Tomlachevy Sisters made the cut with their song Shine,
    despite getting booed on the night because of their country's anti-gay
    legislation.

    The other nine nations to get through included Armenia, Hungary,
    Azerbaijan, Ukraine, Sweden, The Netherlands and Iceland.

    San Marino and Montenegro also reached the final - set to be broadcast
    this weekend - for the first time.

    Russia's 17-year-old siblings were expected to face a backlash over the
    controversial homophobic stance taken by Vladimir Putin's government
    and its invasion of Ukraine.

    Ukraine's effort also made the final, despite its singer reportedly
    being a Putin fan.

    The UK, France, Italy, Spain and Germany get a free pass to the final
    each year because they fund the majority of the contest. Denmark will
    be in the final as the reigning champion.

    The second semi-final is being held tomorrow.
