For the first time in the 61 year history of the Eurovision Song Contest, a country has been expelled from the competition.
This year's entry for Romania, Ovidiu Anton, was due to sing the song Moment Of Silence.
The European Broadcasting Union, which produces the annual competition, said the decision was taken after Romania's national broadcaster, Televiziunea Romana (TVR), failed to pay debts totalling more than £11 million.
In a statement released moments ago on the European Broadcasting Union website, it says:
''TVR will now no longer be able to participate in the 2016 Eurovision Song Contest and will lose access to other EBU member services including the Eurovision News and Sports News Exchanges, the right to broadcast specific sporting events, legal, technical and research expertise and lobbying services.''
