"Rude And Vile" - Samantha Mumba Hits Out At Some Members Of The Eurovision Judging Panel

RTÉ has defended panelists Donal Skehan, Laura Fox and Arthur Gourunlian.

Samantha Mumba has accused RTÉ's Eurosong panel, apart from Bambie Thug, of being "rude and vile" to the finalists.

Samantha lost out to EMMY in Friday night's Eurosong on 'The Late Late Show', meaning she won't represent Ireland at Eurovision in May.

RTÉ has defended the other panelists, Donal Skehan, Laura Fox and Arthur Gourunlian.

The broadcaster has thanked them for their professionalism, integrity and good humour, and says they gave their honest reaction in a "thoughtful and considered way."
