Måns Zelmelöw - Statement in response to his frustration yesterday after Kaj won
Dear narrow-minded haters. My disappointment with the result is JUST a sign of health, right? Have you ever seen an athlete come in second and say they are very happy? I wanted to win. That must be okay, right? It is a competition! I am genuinely SUPER HAPPY for KAJ and we have had the most fun together during this journey. I have congratulated them personally several times. and have NEVER belittled their contribution, on the contrary! They will make us proud in Basel! But this unfiltered anger from you. This bizarre overreaction. Thinking it is okay to hate someone in the comments because he wanted to win a competition that we all love and because I wanted most of all to represent Sweden again in ESC? HOW can that be wrong? Isn't that why we are here? How can that make me an asshole? That I cried when all the pressure was released, not just the one I experienced in the competition, that is okay, right? Again. A HUGE congratulations to KAJ! I love Kevin, Axel and Jakob! And to all of you who DON'T hate - a phenomenal big thank you for all the votes and all the support during this journey! ❤️❤️❤️
