Georgia in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest | ||||
|
Prior to the 2014 Contest, Georgia had participated in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest seven times since its debut in 2007.[1] They have never missed an edition of the contest, and have won thrice at the 2008, 2011, and 2016 contests.[2]
Like Georgia has done most years since their début in the contest, the Georgian broadcaster GPB decided to internally select their 2014 artist after holding an open audition. It was originally announced on 14 August 2014 that Liza Japaridze, Sofi Dashniani, and Dea Dashniani would represent Georgia as a trio, however on 16 August 2014 it was revealed that Japaridze would perform under the stage name Lizi Pop, while the Dashnianis will be backing singers.[3][4]
At the running order draw which took place on 9 November 2014, Georgia were drawn to perform sixth on 15 November 2014, following Cyprus and preceding Sweden.[5]
Lizi Pop performed with four background dancers in black outfits with white wigs. During the performance, Lizi Pop encouraged the members of the audience to sing along.
At the end of the voting, Georgia placed 11th with 54 points.[6]
