Singer Dara won the contest with 516 points from juries and televoters
Bulgarian singer Dara won the Eurovision Song Contest in Vienna with the energetic dance track Bangaranga. Israel's Noam Bettan finished second despite international protests over his country's participation and boos from parts of the audience.
Dara's victory came as a surprise to some, as bookmakers had heavily favored Finland's Pete Parkkonen and violinist Linda Lampenius, as well as Australian singer Delta Goodrem.
