Cris Owen (48) who was the runner up in Euroviisut 1989 with Vad finns kvar and wrote Arja Koriseva's Huomiseen in 1992, speaks about the sex change operation from female to male he had 3 years ago. "If I knew how my life would change I would never have done it. My whole world collapsed. I stared at the mirror and wondered who the hell is that? I felt like 20 year old boy in a body of 50 years old" he tells in today's Ilta-Sanomat.
Cris has had quite colorful life as manager: the Miisa project ended up in Milli Vanilli like scandal when Miisa herself announced she didn't sing on records but was just the pretty cover. Janina Frostell, the #1 Finnish top model Cris produced and managed sued him for spreading nude pictures of Janina on the internet. There were also rumours of them being an item.
And he even sold the sex change operation to scandal magazines with pictures of his new penis he claimed was "too big". A couple of years ago an internet rumour had him dead and he had to appear in public to state he was very much alive.

However I regret starting hormone treatment late in life.
And concerning the exellent article in 7Päivää the statement used as headline is taken out of context while describing the method how the intricate surgery is performed!
But then again, it takes some brain to read between the lines...
