🇸🇪 Eurovision 2024 host Petra Mede on "We Just Love Eurovision Too Much" and more (INTERVIEW)

[@kostalacosta2625]

The icon of the whole Eurovision

[@annnee6818]

Yes. Legendary

[@unknownorigin8446]

Just her being on the stage means a lot. She should not have any pressure to deliver anything extraordinary this year.

[@Wiwibloggs]

Her presence is, as you say, more than enough 🤩

[@esc_stan_uk]

IM SO GLAD SHE’S BACK 😭

[@robotikox]

The queen mother of Eurovision ❤

[@kenisme1000]

This woman is Eurovision…she just never goes away and I’m not mad about that…

[@PhillCurtis]

It wouldn't be the same without her ❤️

[@Jme_hde]

She is one of the few Eurovision hosts EVER who has actually benefitted the contest EVERY TIME

[@Wiwibloggs]

She always brings flavour and spice. Absolutely!

[@eurofansf]

Thank you for the interview…the secret star of ESC 2024!

[@Wiwibloggs]

Thank you for watching! Petra is just perfect 🙌

[@Asa...S]

I think it's so important to mention Edward af Sillén, when talking about Eurovision 2013 and 2016 being sucessful. Petra gets the spotlight, and she's great as a host, but a confident, funny and calm host, has a lot to do with the script and direction from a great director and writer. People celebrate Måns and Petra for "Love Love, Peace Peace", rightfully so, but I feel that Edward af Sillén should be mentioned in the same breath as them, because he wrote it. Everyone celebrates that Petra is back, me too, but most of all I'm so grateful that Edward af Sillén is!

[@glenbryan3706]

This is so true . Edward has a real knack with Eurovision - as the Swedish commentator when Sweden isn't hosting , and the scriptwriter when they do . I'd like to see him present the thing ..

[@stefannilsson6843]

@@glenbryan3706I’ve heard him say that he’s not so fond of being on a stage. Anyway I agree that his manuscripts are brilliant.

[@currentoflinden]

Exactly! I'm so glad you bring this up!

[@alexandraSarnik]

I agree! That was my main concern. Who will write this script? And when I heard that Edward af Sillén is going to do it than I was calm and content. And when they annonced that Petra is back! Wow! And I'm so curious about the interval act "We just love Eurovision too much"! It's going to be great!

[@alexandraSarnik]

@@glenbryan3706 He is going to be the swedish commentator this year (together with Tina Mehrafzoon) even though he writes the script. I'm so happy about that!

[@aekelly]

My two most favorite Eurovision personalities! 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

[@Wiwibloggs]

What an honour! 🥹❤️

[@MariaCarabin]

Couldn’t agree more! ❤

[@ksesc]

We are so blessed to have her back this year! She's a true icon! Like I always say, I wish she hosted Eurovision every year!

[@hugoaguilera8]

.. Sweden has to win again then. ..😊❤

[@markuserikssen]

Loved the interview, William! I was praying for Petra to come back and she did! She's simply the best person to host Eurovision. Her humor is on another level and she's so humble. Now we need Lynda Woodruff back as well! 😍

[@Wiwibloggs]

Thank you, Markus! I really enjoyed speaking with THE QUEEN.

[@markuserikssen]

@@Wiwibloggs She's an icon! 😍

[@Quzinqa1122]

Yes, we really need Sarah Dawn Finer to put on her Lynda Woodruff persona again. That would be brilliant.

[@Tejiknasten]

What a great interview and what a great ESC host we'll have this May. Petra Mede is for the modern Eurovision what Katie Boyle was for the early years. Thanks for a fantastic ESC channel 🫶

[@Wiwibloggs]

Couldn't agree more about Petra. Thank you, Tejiknasten!

[@alexvaznogueira2817]

Petra and also the lady who presented the points from Australia are one of the most iconic women of Eurovision. 😊🫶

[@rowo2774]

Do you mean the spokesperson of 2015 to 2017 Lee Lin Chin? She's very memorable.

[@ethangentles]

The crossover we never knew we needed !!!! ICONS

[@VitaliiSediuk]

She is like a high school teacher that pupils afraid of but love at the same time. National treasure of Sweden and Eurovision ❤️

[@meropale]

My first thought when Loreen won.... will Petra Mede grace us with her excellent hosting.

[@lillecathrine]

If Norway ever somehow wins again, I want us to steal Petra! Hahah. I just adore her. A Swedish Eurovision-royalty😍

[@Wiwibloggs]

Do it! It's payback for Marcus & Martinus ❤

[@a.m.rifkia.3rd493]

not really. Norway could use some of the presenters of MGP in the last four of five years

[@louiseb3876]

Now, as a Brit, I thought Graham Norton was funny but Petra, well she topped him and was BRILLIANT, “We just love Eurovision too much” was very funny. Hope to see Petra again (come to the UK, Petra, loads to do here, we need more great presenters and comedians)

[@87leafar]

This woman is a true INSPIRATION, even if I was not a fan of Loreen win last year, just the fact that we are going to see Petra again makes me VERY HAPPY

[@annnee6818]

Yes, I was POd, Finland was robbed

[@MsMeyara]

The true queen of Eurovision. Love her being back and I cant believe how time flies. 'Love love peace' still lives in my head rent free 😂

[@Wiwibloggs]

Time really does fly. But I'm so glad it's delivered Petra once more.

[@blee1997]

insane she is doing this 3 TIMES!!!! such an iconic host. Just let her be the host of EVERY edition from now.

[@Wiwibloggs]

I'd be happy to see this :)

[@XtianHawk]

[@Wiwibloggs]

Beautiful memories!

[@glenbryan3706]

Petra is so wonderful . She had to leave "Let's Dance " ( Sweden's celebrity dancing show ) due to her back , so it's lovely to see her on telly again . Hope they give her a comfy chair on stage !

[@peixeess]

She has done a surgery thing so let's hope she will be okay

[@larshansson9814]

Great interview. I think Petra and her team really love Eurovision and that's why they manage to make the TV show so entertaining.

[@Maria-n5n4t]

I just love Petra. She can host Eurovision every year. Petra, along with Måns, Edward af Sillén and Christer Björkman are all geniouses.

[@annnee6818]

She and Mans had excellent chemistry. You could tell she was so much more confident than him and she helped him through and it was great😂

[@Dan_Blick1986]

The first question I asked myself after Sweden won last year, was please can they ask Petra Mede to host again? I was SO glad she said yes! For me, Eurovision 2016 remains the contest for me, where things went up a notch in JUST how Eurovision should be hosted. I know people weren’t that keen on Måns, but I actually really liked the camaraderie between them. Just hope Petra doesn’t put too much pressure on herself hosting this time round, as although she makes it look easy, when hosting to x hundred million people that can’t be an easy thing to do! Good luck Petra, so glad you’re back! 😀

[@notgonnnagetus]

My beloved queen ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@prostoseminozhka]

She is just the best host ever ❤

[@Wiwibloggs]

Her inner beauty really shines on stage. ❤

Thank you, Nicholas!

[@thomaseriksson3182]

A really good interview! Thanks! The first thing you thought as a Swede when Loreen won - hope it will be Petra with a script by Edward of sille'n and Björkman as director.🙏 Now it happened and we in Sweden have sky-high expectations for the script and direction ha ha ha 🤣🤣 Lynda will probably come back with it. No one will probably be disappointed this time either😎 Welcome to Malmö all ESC Fans 💯👍

Beautiful wiwiblogs contribution. I mean, even if the EBU doesn’t recognize it officially (as they should) your independent work on the esc is simply groundbreaking.

[@Eum67]

Much love to Pietra from Armenia 🇦🇲 such an inspiration.

[@CoCaSilvia]

The interval act from semifinal 2 was very funny.

[@s.leochapman417]

If Australia ever win the contest, I propose that Sweden and Germany co-host so that we get Petra Mede and Anke Engelke. Perfect hosts!

[@Asa...S]

Is "Malin" that hard to pronounce for an English speaking person? I would say it's pretty close to the English word "Marlin", the r in that word is kinda silent, isn't it? If you say it like Marlin Awkermann I would say it's pretty close.

[@Wiwibloggs]

Ooooo thank you for this tip!

I will miss Mans though...... :-( .....And of course Lynda Woodruff

[@michaelkarnerfors9545]

Sweden's secret recipe for making delicious and memorable interval acts: large amounts of cheese and ham, served on a thick foundation of self-deprecating pride, gratinated with plenty of in-jokes and back-references. Roast gently. Serve, and enjoy together with invited friends and neighbours.

Vote for Latvia 🇱🇻 and 🇬🇪 Georgia please
