Armenia’s Emmy was knocked out of Eurovision Song Contest 2011 in the May 10 seminal, although her performance of Boom Boom song was met warmly by the audience at Arena stadium.

Earlier some Armenian media outlets reported that Emmy and another four participants of the song contest have lodged a complaint against the European Broadcasting Union (EBU). Allegedly, the complaint read that the May 10 Eurovision 2011 semifinal broadcasting was not organized appropriately and many viewers from European countries failed to vote via sending SMS messages. However, head of the Armenian delegation to Eurovision 2011 Gohar Gasparyan said that Armenia has not lodged a complaint against EBU. She did not clarify whether Armenia is going to dispute the results of the song contest first semifinal.
