I have done ever since 2015, him and Benjamin Ingrosso
Did you know that there is basicly an entire show on Benjamins family? They are kinda famous here…
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa??????
Yeah it’s called Wahlgrens Värld (’Wahlgren’s World’ if you translate it from Swedish)
Fair enough, sounds interesting
It’s like a reality show… kinda like a version of Keeping up with the Kardashians, maybe?
Hey what do you call the competition that comes before Eurovision? In Sweden we call it Melodifestivalen…
Benjamins mom competed in it several times actually lol
And his cousin Sebastian Ingrosso is (as you might know already) part of the group Swedish House Mafia and also the duo Axwell /\ Ingrosso
Yeah I knew the bit about Sebastian, however the other thing I don't know. Tbh I didn't know there was a comp before Eurovision
But how do you choose who is gonna compete for UK then?
Oh there was like a selection called 'Eurovision: You Decide' back in February. Twas held by Mel Giedroyc and Måns Zelmerlöw
Interesting… so, how more exactly does that work?
So the public book tickets to go to this event and then they watch all the acts that could be chosen, then at the end they vote for who they want to represent the country. I think that's how it's done anyway, I haven't actually been to it myself
But there is only one final? In Sweden it is like a mini eurovision with quarterfinals and semifinals and finals and that kind of stuff.
Also lol what is Måns doing in the UK he’s a swede
That doesn't mean he cant travel??
In all honesty I don't really know how it works over here, other than the 'You Decide' thing
of course he can travel I just wondered more like why is he hosting a UK show cause I didn’t know he had any connection to the UK but it’s cool anyways
It’s tonight! Are you guys gonna watch?
I AM!
