"Omaga" (stylized in all lowercase) is a song by Czech singer Benny Cristo. It represented the Czech Republic in the Eurovision Song Contest 2021 in Rotterdam, the Netherlands.[2][3] Much like its predecessor "Kemama" being a shorthand for "OK, Mama", the title "Omaga" is a shorthand for "Oh My God". The music video contains references to The Simpsons, Grease, The Shining, Pulp Fiction, Forrest Gump and Dirty Dancing, amongst others.[4]

Eurovision Song Contest

[edit]

The song was selected to represent Czech Republic in the Eurovision Song Contest 2021 in February 2021, after Benny Cristo was internally selected by the national broadcaster ČT. The semi-finals of the 2021 contest featured the same line-up of countries as determined by the draw for the 2020 contest's semi-finals. Czech Republic was placed into the second semi-final, held on 20 May 2021, and performed in the first half of the show.
