Podcast appearances and mentions of Krista Siegfrids

It's Pride Month and it simply wouldn't do to not honor the many trailblazing queer artists and their allies that helped push Eurovision forward to greater inclusion and acceptance. We're joined by the UK's own Eurovision superfan and international drag queen, Kiki Babs, to talk about several iconic moments in the Contest's LGBTQI+ history that deserve a little more time in the spotlight. Jeremy appreciates a little intersectionality, Dimitry reveals you don't have to like a song to be an ally, and Kiki wants to be part of that world. Follow Kiki Babs and Candy Venom on Instagram.

To wrap up our preview series in style, Eurovision legend Krista Siegfrids joins us to talk about her career, memories of the 2013 contest, as well as this year’s entrants […]

As this episode goes out Andy & Ryan are recovering from three frenetic weekends in Stockholm. After 2 Melfest specials, this is a return to our regular episode format with 7 songs in 7 different categories. First up is Portugal's sublime Saudade Saudade (a sad state of intense longing for someone or something that is absent) which is essentially group therapy in song form, for which the lead singer, MARO, is in a purple judo outfit. Then we have the irrepressible Krista Siegfrids singing the joyful and queer Marry Me back in 2013 which was in many ways ahead of its time with its drag kings, lesbian kiss and intention to represent sexual equality. Our ‘over 15 years ago' slot takes us back to 1998 and Netherlands legend Edsilia Rombley and her 4th place song Hemel & Aarde with its Mike and the Mechanics ‘bounce'. This episode's UK entry is Still in Love with You. Not exactly a favourite of Eurovision fans, but we consider it to be fun and feelgood even if the performance was a little lacking on the night. This is followed by the uber-controversial Icelandic mega-star Silvia Night - with her hotline to God - who almost everyone misunderstood back in 2006, so much so that the crowd booed her during the semi-final. We discuss how Silvia was a character rather than a real person and how she perhaps suffered more for her art because of her gender rather than what she said and did. Our Deuce award category is filled by the gravity-defying and ever-youthful Stig Rasta whose infectious pop song Interstellar (co-written with Melfest's Victor Crone) was a contender in the Estonian national final back in 2022. Finally, the Randomiser generously (?) gifts us the Swiss entry from 1980, Paola's Cinema, at a time in Eurovision history when every other song title was a place or an art form e.g. Colorado, Theatre, Amsterdam. Elsewhere in the episode, we rip into Johnny Logan and Andy has his Eurovision expert card revoked when he completely forgets about the existence of Duncan Lawrence! So… congratulations, we have arrived. We're Andy and Ryan and we're shining so bright. Eurovision nations, your dreams coming true. You've been waiting forever for a pod to save you. Wham, bam, boom!

Emil gets hold of the crazy energy package from Finland, Krista Siegfrids, as she is sitting bored at home waiting for her fully baked baby to be ready to come out of the oven any day. Every Eurovision fan remembers Krista as the crazy bridezilla with her ding-dong possy from Malmö in 2013, where she put her mark all over the town and in the hearts of many fans, possibly annoying a competitor or two in the process. She definetely annoyed some entire countries with her "outrageous" stunt of kissing another girl at the end of her performance.Since then she has competed twice in Swedish Melodifestivalen and landed an almost permanent gig as the host of the Finnish equivalent UMK, and who knows in which country she will pop up next? Or maybe she will return as an insane mom-manager when her daughter competes in 20 years?Legend: Krista SiegfridsSong: Marry me (Finland 2013)Host: Emil LöfströmContact: emil@schlagervannerna.seInstagram Facebookhttp//www.eurovisionlegends.se See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
