Jovana Janković, anchor of RTS' daily morning show, has extensive experience in hosting live television. Earlier this year, in connection with the upcoming contest, she hosted the Semi-Final allocation draw, which was broadcast live over the Eurovision Network and aired across Europe. A successful test case, as it now seems!

Željko Joksimović (35) is one of the most successful musicians in the Balkan region. In 2004, he represented Serbia & Montenegro at the Eurovision Song Contest in Istanbul, Turkey, with Lane Moje, finishing second. In 2006, he composed the Eurovision Song Contest song Lejla for Bosnia & Herzegovina, performed by Hari Mata Hari. The song finished third. Joksimović also composed a song for the Serbian national final this year, to be performed by Jelena Tomasević. 

More information about the two hosts for the upcoming Eurovision Song Contest is expected soon!
