Re: SAN MARINO 2014
Valentina Monetta about Eurovision: "I am very honored, the 11th place in the Eurovision fills me with pride. I'm still doing my personal musical journey and I'm really excited about this milestone, I'm actually lucky to have given a positive image of myself in this important contest. I hope that this result can attract and fascinate many young music lovers".
About fans: "I am happy and pleased for my performance on Thursday night. I have won anyway even thought I didn't reach the final. To prove this I received a lots of message on Facebook and Twitter, I honestly didn't expect all this love and support from people all over the world. This year expectations were high for the qualification in the final but I was still prepared for a possible elimination, it means that now I will pursue other musical projects".
About Emmelie: "I had a feeling she would win the 2013 edition of the ESC. I am happy for Emmelie, she's an artist I feel very similar to me".
About her 3rd time: "Right now I don't feel ready to say yes or no about my 3rd time. I will assess the various proposals reflecting calmly. For the moment I can only say that me and my staff have won because we did out best and comments on our job were more than positive".
Carlo Romeo, the head of SMtv San Marino, about Valentina: "For us, Valentina won. She has been very good on the stage and we could not do more than that. Her staff has done a great job, showing that San Marino is professional too. If she agrees, for us is not a problem to confirm her again next year".
About San Marino in the Eurovision: "I know that working on it for a long time and insisting we can collect some important results. Many countries spend a lot of money to be in the Eurovision, but we can't afford some figures. As we have already done this year, we will continue to gain visibility on the web".
