• 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 2007, he attempted to imitate Alenka Gotar, then a Slovenian representative at the Eurovision Song Contest by projecting a large flashlight to his face ;
• in 2008 he greeted hosts in their native language, commented about former Yugoslavian brotherhood and continued in completely informal friendly style.
• in 2009 he declared that instead of jokes, he would hold a minute of silence as Slovenia had failed to make the final two years in a row. After approximately 14 seconds of silence, and following a prompter from Russian presenter Alsou, he proceeded to announce Slovenia's votes.
