Last night was the fifth show of Rising Star 2017, the Israeli show that searches for the artist to represent them at Eurovision Song Contest.

This was the final show with auditions. From show number 6 to 10, the acts will be eliminated until we’re left with the Rising Star who will be the Israeli representative for 2017.

In order to qualify for the next round, the artist had to score over 70% of votes.

Two acts qualified from tonight’s show advancing to next week’s quarterfinals along with the other eighteen qualifiers from the previous four shows.

Those two acts are

David Vanesyan (85%)

Next week, the quarter finals will be aired in two shows on Monday 30th and Tuesday 31st January.

Following the quarterfinal, six acts will compete in the semifinal on Monday 6th and Tuesday 7th February.
