Sweden: A Swedish reality TV star ready to compete at Melodifestivalen 2024!
Torbjörn Ek and Stina Dahlgren, reporters at Aftonbladet did it again and revealed one more participating act for Melodifestivalen 2024! We remind you that last year, Aftonbladet revealed 24 out of the 28 acts of Melodifestivalen 2023, even before SVT announced the line-up officially.
Aftonbladet just revealed that the “Swedish Hollywood Wives” reality star Gunilla Persson is ready for the competition. Reportedly, the song will focus on her persona “The Gunilla“.
The rumours have been circulating since the 64-year-old Gunilla Persson, and her daughter Erika Persson, were spotted in the songwriter and producer Fredrik Andersson’s music studio at the record company Cardiac in Ystad earlier this fall.
Initially people thought that her daughter was set to compete at Melodifestivalen 2024, but well informed sources say that Gunilla will perform, solo. The song is written by Fredrik Andersson who, among other things, wrote the Melodifestivalen winner “If I were sorry” with Frans. Andersson also has a bit of an expertise at writing songs that capture personalities without making fun of the person in question or who performs them, such as Fran‘s “Who’s da man” (the Zlatan song). Her participation is guaranteed to be the talk of the town next year, says a person familiar with the matter.
We remind you that Melodifestivalen 2024 is scheduled to take place between February 3rd to March 9th, while SVT has received 2624 songs.
