iTV announced they are looking for artists who stand out for their 'beautiful voice, ability to dance and stage act'. They will be picked by the broadcaster.

At a later stage, the audience and a professional jury will have their say in picking the Land Of Fire's entry for the 2011 edition of Europe's favourite TV-show.

Azerbaijan was represented by Safura in 2010 in Oslo, with the song Drip Drop. She finished 5th in the Final and second in the second Semi-Final.

She was picked in one of the longest selection processes seen that year, with several stages and the winner and the winning song announced at different times, just before the deadline for submitting entries to the European Broadcasting Union.
