Serbia and Montenegro in the Eurovision Song Contest 2006

For full results, see Evropesma 2006

2006 Evropesma, held in Belgrade, Serbia, on March 11, 2006, saw the same voting pattern from the judges from both republics: this year's favorites, once again winners and the runner up of Beovizija 2006, Flamingosi feat. Louis and Ana Nikolić, respectively, received no points from the RTCG judges. The judges appointed by RTS in turn awarded eight points to No Name and four points to Stevan Faddy, enough for No Name to score another win. The Beovizija favorites Flamingosi finished second. The televote placed Beovizija favorites first and second and No Name third.

The stir began during the voting, as the audience started leaving the event in the midst of it, after realizing that their favourites were not going to win. The remaining audience booed No Name off the stage, and threw objects (such as bottles) at the stage, as they came out to accept the award and perform their song again, in the Eurovision Song Contest tradition. The audience then wooed Flamingosi on stage and they performed their song with the other finalists from Beovizija present on stage.

Serbia and Montenegro finished 7th with 137 points in the last year's contest, meaning that it would have been automatically qualified for the final in the 2006 contest. However, due to Serbia & Montenegro’s withdrawal from the contest, an empty slot for automatic qualification was left in the final. It was later given to Croatia who finished 11th in 2005.

Despite not participating, Serbia and Montenegro was still able to vote in the semifinal and in the final. The spokesperson who revealed Serbia and Montenegro's votes for other countries was Jovana Janković, whose speech at the beginning of the presentation of the Serbian & Montenegrin points pointed Serbia being back the following year with the best possible song, and thus win the contest. Serbia, on its own and already as an independent nation, entered the contest in 2007 for the first time ever and managed to win the entire competition with the song "Molitva", performed by Marija Serifović.

On 21 May 2006, one day after the contest final, an independence referendum was held in Montenegro, which was approved by majority of its population. Montenegro formally declared its independence on 3 June 2006, and two days later, State Union of Serbia and Montenegro officially ceased to exist. Both countries entered separately for the first time at the next year's contest in Helsinki, with Serbia winning the contest.
