Mans will do everything to clean his homophobic image so I expect him to kiss another guy on stage. :cool:

Which is totally exaggerated.

Meanwhile on Fraser Nelson's Twitter account in Swedish ( https://twitter.com/frasernelsonsv ):

Jag träffade Måns Zelmerlöw igår , som berättade att SVT lutar mot honom presentera Eurovision grandfinalen med Petra Mede. Jag hoppas det!



Maybe? If I understand it correctly, Måns and Petra are indeed in talks with SVT. :eek:

This is the guy, Fraser Nelson from the British newspaper The Spectator.
Why Eurovision needs to be saved from the BBC

What on earth is he doing learning Swedish? :D

edit on the rumours:
Looking at the tweets including the Swedish ambassador in London it seems to be just teasing.

It's a pity. :(

October approaches, and there should be more news on this, or at least some credible rumours. :(

I'm disappointed, I wanted someone new instead of just wheeling out Petra again...

She is a great host, no reason to go for someone worse just because they are different.

She was endearing and charming but leaned towards the corny side for me... I'd have preferred Gina Dirawi or SDF

SDF would be a better host. Petra and the homophobe? Seriously? Now I know I wont even watch the contest next year.

People love their hosts to be corny. That's why she appealed so much to the casual viewers. I love SDF so she would have been fine but I hate Gina.

She was a great host in 2013, yes. But what makes you sure that someone else would be "worse" than her? I really liked her hosting in 2013. But I am always by the side of fresh things. Instead of seeing her over again, I would like someone else to show their best.

I think Petra will do a great job again.
I'm not sure about Måns but it would certainly help if he appeared in underwear like Neil Patrick Harris. Or without. xthink

First I didn´t like the idea of Petra hosting a second time, but meanwhile I have to say, I like it. Should be a nice combination with Mans :-)

Don't worry, you won't be missed...

Absolutely thrilled to see Måns host the contest next year, as for Petra, I liked her in 2013, but I always like to see new faces, even if it leads to catastrophies like this year's hosting...
