Shortly after Måns Zelmerlöw won Eurovision 2015, the bookies at UNIBET drafted their list of favouites to host the Eurovision Song Contest 2016. Måns and Eurovision 2013 host Petra Mede led the way, but sitting pretty in third position was Eurovision 2014 contestant Sanna Nielsen. It made sense. She hosted Melodifestivalen 2015 and provided commentary for Sweden a few weeks later in Vienna. “It was wonderful,” she told us inside Wiener Stadthalle. “It’s so fun to challenge myself and jump into different situations that I’m not paritucularly used to. That’s my dream. To do things I enjoy.”
Well it looks like our sister from the north wants to live her dream again at Eurovision 2016. Expressen spoke with the “Undo” singer about the possibility and she is definitely keen. Sanna be like:
“It’s great that my name figures in these circles,” she said. “I have no idea if I’m up to date, but it is fun that people want to see me there. It would be very interesting. I love Melodifestivalen and Eurovision, so of course I want to be there if I’m asked.”
And she would love to be reunited with Melfest co-host Robin Paulsson: “And if two of us lead the program I want to have Robin Paulsson as a partner, it worked so well during Melodifestivalen!”
Who do you want to host Eurovision? You can see some of our top picks in the video below. Then let us know what you’re thinking in the comments section.
Imagine having Loreen and Måns. I’m pretty sure Loreen would decline, but it would be so cool if the previous two Swedish winners hosted. Although I do think that Sanna would be a great host.
They haven’t “worked well” during Melodifestivalen (with Robin), tbh. It seemed awkward (for me). But hey, everybody has different tastes and picture of what has to be done in order something to succeed.
I liked Gina & Danny back in 2013, they were complete on so many levels.
Måns + Sanna = Månna. The host duo portmanteau writes itself, people!!
I know there are many non-Måns fans out there, but he, like Sanna, has presented Melfest in the past and done a damn good job of it. And let’s not forget how Conchita walked all over our main trio of hostesses in Vienna in terms of competency and charm…
I saw Sanna Nielsen at a restaurant in Karlshamn a few days ago. I first just looked at her because she was a beautiful woman. Then I realised it was Sanna 😀
Loreen to host? Impossible!!!
I have a feeling that SVT would want Eric, Loreen, Sanna and Mans to host just to show off how well Sweden has done these last few years- maybe they could make Robin the spokesperson for the Swedish points? 😉
Eric would be a fun host and Sanna could rein him in if he thought of calling anyone a MILF, whereas Mans and Loreen could do the green room well.
I did not like her Eurovision song but she has always seemed nice and might have something to contribute as a host. I think I would prefer her hosting to Mans.
Would love love love to see her hosting.
Another all female team of Petra and Sanna perhaps?
Well if SVT won’t choose Sanna as the hostess of #Globen~Vision
next year in Sweden at least they could select her once again 4 a second year in row to be the grand hostess of Melodifestivalen 2016 🙂
I would love that!
But I think SVT probably would’ve contacted her already if she was a candidate…
Petra Mede did an amazing work back in 2013 and Sanna Nielsen was wonderful during her performance in Copenhagen, she was reigning over the stage, so I think this duo could hosto the next year… Maybe Måns can stay in the green room ahah
Well why not 🙂 She was GreAtY in hosting this year’s Melodifestivalen 🙂 Her partner Robin was really good as co host as well 🙂 They would do really good job in hosting the 61st #GlobenVision if they get selected by SVT 🙂 I loved her *Undo* visionary song last year in wonderful’s Copenhagen’s Vision <3 I liked it even more than i did Mans' winner song to admit.. She just was unlucky that did not do better although i wouldn't call her 3rd place & 218 points really failure 🙂 She WON the Ogae fun clubs voting last year… Read more »
