Controversies

After the final, singer Aca Lukas, who placed 5th in the final with the song "Oskar", accused the Serbian public broadcaster RTS of irregularities in the voting of the selection, stating he would file a criminal complaint against the head of RTS, editor of entertainment program Olivera Kovačević  [ sr ] and general director Dragan Bujošević  [ sr ] for "stealing votes". [31] RTS responded, stating that the SMS votes were counted automatically by software which did not allow interference. The Comtrade System Integration company, which set up the software to count the votes, said it was prepared to hand the votes to the authorities if requested to do so, adding that the same data is available from mobile phone operators. [31] He also made comments about the winning performer Konstrakta, saying: "I could have gone on stage and washed my feet, but I chose instead to perform", also claiming she is working for opposition political parties. [32] Konstrakta, laughing off his suggestion, jokingly offered "to wash his feet for him." [32] After the controversy, RTS and Kovačević announced they would sue Lukas. [31]
