A Choice for Titonüi 5

A Choice for Titonüi 5 (also known as All-Stars for Titonüi) is the fifth edition of the A Choice for Titonüi national finals, and it will select Titonüi's entry for Zendari Song Contest 5. It was confirmed on the 14th of March 2018.

It has been confirmed that this edition will be an all-stars edition, and people were able to suggest artists to participate by using a survey form. Five acts will be picked from a survey poll, five acts will be picked from the producers of the contest and two acts will be picked from the "Battle of the Winners" semi-final.

On the 15th of April 2018, it was revealed that Emma Blackery had won the contest with 126 points, the same amount of points that Walk The Moon received. Emma won in the tiebreaker by counting the amount of countries that voted for each entry the most. Emma received votes from 20 countries, whereas Walk The Moon received votes from 18 countries.

Rumours
There are a few rumours going around regarding the format. Several people are claiming that A Choice for Titonüi 5 is going to be an all-star edition, including artists from the four previous editions of A Choice for Titonüi. This was later proven to be true.

There was a rumour that there might be a "winners duel" segment, where the four previous winners of A Choice for Titonüi will come back to the contest and try to win it again. There were two theories for this:
 * The four previous winners will compete against eachother with brand new songs, and the winner will represent Titonüi in Zendari Song Contest 5. This was an incorrect rumour, since Titonüiyia Television publicly asked people to submit their requests for artists in this upcoming edition, and announced several returning artists.
 * The four previous winners will compete against eachother with brand new songs, and the winner(s?) will win a place in the final line-up of the national final, and compete against 8 to 10 artists who have previously competed in A Choice for Titonüi, but did not win. This was later announced to be the format.

Emma Blackery
On the 16th of March 2018, it was leaked from a worker in Titonüiyia Television that Emma Blackery would compete in A Choice for Titonüi 5, just a few minutes after her latest song "Dirt" was released. Shortly after this leak, Titonüiyia Television confirmed that it was true, and that the rest of the artist and song reveals would take place over the next 2 weeks.

Participants

 * Ellie Goulding is highly rumoured to be a producer pick, with a new song.
 * f(x) is rumoured to not be in the contest, as Luna, the winner of the first edition of A Choice for Titonüi, is apart of the group.
 * Ingrid Michaelson is rumoured to be in the contest, most likely as a producer pick, with a new song.
 * Lily Allen, a fan favourite from the fourth edition, is rumoured to be a survey pick.
 * Lady Goo Goo is rumoured to be a producer pick, most likely with the same song that she competed with in the second edition of the contest.

Various

 * On the 18th of March 2018, two previous winners of A Choice for Titonüi - Alida and Luna - were spotted outside the Titonüiyia Television headquarters. It might not mean anything, but considering that there are many rumours of a "winners duel" segment in the contest, this might be a clear indicator that a "winners duel" segment is planned. This was later proven to be true.

Yoko Ono Plastic Ono Band & Olivia Holt
On the 30th of March 2018, after all songs had been revealed, it was announced that Titonüiyia Television calculated the percentages wrong (the percentage total didn't add up to 100% in any of the polls). After they released the updated numbers, it was shown that Yoko Ono Plastic Ono Band and Olivia Holt got higher than two songs picked by the survey poll. Despite this, the two artists weren't offered a spot in the fifth edition of A Choice for Titonüi. However, on the 15th of April 2018, it was revealed that both Yoko Ono Plastic Ono Band and Olivia Holt were offered to perform their songs as an interval act in the fifth edition of Zendari Song Contest in a semi-final, which they both accepted.

Selection process
It was revealed that Titonüiyia Television would pick 5 songs to compete in the line-up, 5 songs would be picked from the top 5 most requested artists in the survey and 2 songs would be picked from the "Battle of the Winners" semi-final.

It was also revealed that Neon Hitch did not receive enough votes to become a survey pick, and that Kyary Pamyu Pamyu received the second highest percentage in the survey poll. Titonüiyia Television corrected this mistake by giving Neon Hitch the Producer Pick status, and giving Kyary Pamyu Pamyu the Survey Pick status.

A grand total of 14 countries participated in the survey poll, with one representant from each country. The representants were from:
 * (Benjii H.)
 * (Ashley M.)
 * (David H.)
 * (Ali C.)
 * (Ashton K.)
 * (Tomas S.)
 * (Lidia I.)
 * (Oliver K.)
 * (Leo G.)
 * (Jamie B.)
 * (Shell E.)
 * (Jordan S.)
 * (Basil D.)
 * (Francisco V.)
