Ex Steps star Lisa Scott-Lee is hoping to represent the UK at next year's Eurovision Song contest.
The singer was recently forced to give up her solo career after agreeing with MTV to do so when her latest single failed to get into the top ten.
Now Scott-Lee views the contest, to be held in Athens next May, as a way of re-igniting her career. "People may laugh but some acts have had a lot of success after being in the contest," she is quoted as saying.
Last year the UK was represented by Javine Hylton, who failed to turn around the country's poor performance in recent years.
