Hello everyone and welcome to Australia Decides 8!! We are happy to be reporting for our eighth edition live from Down Under!! Before we start, we'd like to thank Ashli one final time for being a fantastic entrant last edition in Brasov!! And here to perform her winning song one final time is Ashli!!



Thank you again for being a great entrant!!

Returning from last edition, we are super pleased to announce that Janine Allis will be returning to host AusDecides this edition!!! This extreme honor comes after her previous hosting of AusDecides2 - AusDecides5 & 7, and her hosting HSC6 in Melbourne!! She also continues her entrepreneurial reign over Boost Juice enterprises, while also appearing on shows such as Survivor AU and Shark Tank AU!!! We love a busy businesswoman <3

After two contentious semi finals, Australia Decides 8 has found its hopeful nine acts to represent Australia!!

Without further ado, here are the competing entries for tonight!!!

1. Juicy Romance
2. Telenova

Now to the voting!! The voting will be very simple, but will be slightly revamped for the final!! There will be two parts of voting, the jury vote and the televote!!

The jury vote will change a bit and will now follow the Eurovision voting format. That means you may distribute the points -

12 (favorite)
10
8
7
6
5
4
3
2
1 (least favorite)

Meanwhile, for the televoting part, you will have 10 points to distribute to at least THREE acts competing in the final!! You can divide these 10 points in whichever way you deem fit!! For example -

6 points - BIG WETT
3 points - Sammi Constantine
1 point - Royel Otis

You can message me your votes on either Tengaged or Discord!! If you have any questions on either part of voting, please feel free to reach out :)

The act that receives the highest COMBINED score will be crowned the winner of Australia Decides 8!! In the event of a tie, the winner will be the act that has received the higher televote score. If there is still a tie, then we will look to the jury score and who received the highest amount of 12 points!

Without further ado, here are the competing acts for tonight!! Hope you enjoy the show and may the best act win!!
