Tarih: 5.01.2006
 Few moments ago TRT 1 presented the press conference of the broadcaster in Conrad Hotel in Istanbul in which the name of the 2006 Turkish representative revealed. It is Sibel Tüzün. The Turkish national broadcaster announced the artist which was selected internally and soon we are awaiting more details regarding which song she will sing or if there will be a special procedure for the song entry in Eurovision 2006 edition.
Sibel Tüzün is not unknown to the Eurofans. In 1990 she came 9th in the national preselection with the song "Hardly important" (Kime ne). Stay tuned for extensive coverage and updates...
The 2004 host country will send Sibel Tüzün to Greece in May. "I am very eager to come up with a big show", she said during a press conference. Sibel is determined to "make it to the top-3".
Sibel started in TRT childrens choir in 1971 and studied classic music and opera. Later on she started to sing pop and rock.
Sibel Tüzün sang with Ajda Pekkan, who represented Turkey in 1980, and Nukhet Duru. In 1990 she also participated in the Turkish selection with Kime ne, where she came ninth.
Due to Gülseren's disappointing result in Kyiv, Sibel will have to compete in the semifinal of the upcoming Eurovision Song Contest, which will take place on 18th May.
