Meet Igor Vovkovinskiy, Ukraine (Eurovision 2013)

Since Igor, the giant, landed in Malmo, Sweden, on 5 May 2013, the Ukrainian delegation has been receiving lots of attention from the press, Eurovision fans and people on the streets. Take 3 minutes of your time to meet Igor and get to know more about his biggest dream, his inspiration and his family.
Igor will perform the role of the giant in Zlata's performance in Eurovision 2013. His appearance on stage symbolizes Zlata's inner strength which helps her overcome obstacles on the way to her dream.

Halfway thru his profile on TLC. Seeing the joy on his face after being called out by Obama brought tears to my eyes. I hope someone in the movie biz catches it, cuz Igor has incredible potential for some unique roles. God speed dood!
