Peter Poles

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Peter Poles is a famous Slovenian television personality, responsible for presenting the Slovenian televote results at the Eurovision Song Contest. Poles first filled this role in 2003, returning in 2004, 2006, 2007 and 2008.

Poles has tried to add comedy whilst giving his results. In 2003, as Slovenia were the final country to vote with the overall winner still unknown, Poles joked by disappearing from camera view. In 2006 he asked the female host of the contest, Maria Menounos to marry him by wearing a t-shirt with the message "Maria Marry Me". In 2008 he greeted hosts (Serbia) in their native language, commented about former Yugoslavian brotherhood and continued in completely informal friendly style.
