Molly Sterling has been chosen to represent Ireland at the 2015 Eurovision Song Contest in Vienna.
The 16-year-old schoolgirl from Nenagh, Co. Tipperary, won Eurosong last night (February 27) with her track Playing with Numbers, which was co-written by Greg French.
Speaking about her win, Sterling said: "It’s an unbelievably feeling! I can’t believe that it happened, it’s amazing. I just want to make everyone proud and Greg has worked so hard on this. I just love performing and I can now do it in an international scale – it’s mind-blowing.
"I don’t think my school will mind that I haven’t handed in my assignment. They’re all so supportive and they know this is what I’ve wanted to do since I was in nappies!"
The other acts who performed tonight on the Late Late Show were Kat Mahon; Alex Saint and the MJs; Kat Mahon; Erika Selin and Nikki Kavanagh.
The discussion panel comprised superstar Panti Bliss, Eurovision fan and TV presenter Mairead Farrell, the Godfather of Eurovision Phil Coulter and Eurovision winner Linda Martin.
The 60th annual Eurovision Song Contest will take place on May 23 in Vienna.
