"they" -> the juries
"most boring and political Eurovisions like always in Scandinavia" -> You tell me that Sweden and Denmark didn't make Eurovision a political contest with the LGBT stuff. And don't let me started on the political entries that Finland started sending since 2011.
The booings of Armenia in 2013 and Russia in 2014 and the constant scandals with the juries and fucking up the voting system so that it will favor Sweden are just some minor aspects of the politication of Eurovision after Svante left and that horrible, horrible man Jan Ola Sand took place.

So yes, if the contest is ruined some day, it will be Scandinavia's fault. Period.

You must be really blind not to see that the Swedish victory this year is artificial. Plastic. A lie. Unfair. And this is just the begining of the Swedish hypocrisy. While you are talking so much how you are accepting the gay people and sending an open homophobe? Come on!If Polina Gagarina said the things that Måns Zelmerlöw said, all of you would throw tomatoes at her.

I watch the show because of the music and the artists, not because of the political opinion of some irrelevant swedish fucktards or rude cold bitches like Petra Mede.

For that part, he is right.

I was obviously talking about Gina Dirawi.

Doesn't change the reaction much though :D

I guess much of understanding Gina's character depends on knowing Swedish language and Swedish conditions as for example dialects. She is blunt, witty and very direct in a seemingly naive country girl way, a comedienne. Personally I don't think she fits the role as host in Eurovision and I doubt very much she will be considered. But if she is considered, I think it will be in some kind of sidekick role. I hope SVT will not go down that route though.

A plastic doll is hardly a fitting description in any case. These are BTW very rare in Swedish entertainment as it's rarely a viable approach to success in Sweden (bloggers apparently an exception :D)

Sorry I didn't notice your PS until now

Watching these and another wiwiblog video

(gosh how many do they produce a day??), I noticed what Angus said. He is usually spot on and I usually agree with what he says. He want all three, Måns, Gina and Sarah and despite it goes against what I thought earlier, I kind of like it.

I meant if it's true that there is a serious possibility of Petra hosting the show with Mans. ;) What do the Swedish newspapers or media in general say about it?

Petra has just posted a link to the article by Expressen which says SVT wants her and Mans to host ESC! :eek: It must mean that something's going on!

Oh no please :(

Haha, rumours are rumours and everybody wants them to grow as big as possible. Personally I still think Sarah DF is the most likely female host and Måns is kind of the obvious male host. I love Petra and I think she would do an amazing hosting but it would indeed be very much a repeat of the last Eurovision in Malmö. SVT may surprise us again with someone out of the current scope though. And there's Melodifestivalen hosting as well which honestly lies closer in time.

No, because this time she would host together with Mans. :p

I would be fine with Petra and Måns hosting. Petra was a great host the last time. Maybe Petra could tear off Måns' shirt at the beginning of the show and Måns could host bare-chested. Petra would be responsible for the jokes and Måns would be next year's eye candy. :cool:

I thought it might be true because... wasn't it said that the host would be chosen by the end of August? And now, on 3rd September Petra (or someone from her facebook team) posts the link to this article... two weeks after its publication. :cool: Plus I don't think Petra just wants to spread a rumour, because she refuses any commentary.
And today SVT has revealed the team that will produce the contest...

I don't get it. What do you mean? Who is Caitlyn Jenner? What his/her whatever relation to Eurovision? I don't understand. Is this a joke? Is it funny? Are you fangirling? Or antifangirling?

Her, not his. It's transphobic to misgender a person. I'm surprised that this transphobic statement is coming from you.

I personally would like Petra to host the contest again. I think she was brilliant back in 2013 :) I wouldn't mind Mans or Lynda Woodruff (Sarah Down Finer) though.

I knew it was transphobic with the "whatever", it was just meant as a tease. :mrgreen: You know, there's a "new" word in Swedish "hen" which is the genus neutral combination of the words "honom" (he) and "henne" (she). Some hate it, some find it very useful. If there were such word in English, this situation would perfect for it (or not as I'm maybe in deep water here :geek:).
