We already know the venue of Eurovision 2013 will be the smallest for many years, but now we learn SVT is looking for a one presenter only solution as well. And to get rid of the huge LED walls on stage, something that Oslo 2010 did as well.
The one presenter, last used back in 1995, will give more space for the presenter who would be more involved in the show, a bit like the Oscars. This blogger thinks that sounds good, the recent years the presenters have become more and more invisible and one can hardly remember who they were.... No decision has been made on who will present the show but if it has to be now someone who can carry the show, maybe sing and act a bit and have the necessary stage and screen presence..... one funny lady comes to mind. And one cute guy.... Let's see...
With dropping the LED screens and one host only SVT aims for a more intimate show, where people indeed come together.
Overall Malmö 2013 is about
embracing the unique diversity of people, cultural expression, music and
joy of partying that can be found in Europe. To learn about cultures
and build bridges is very important in Europe. That was important in the
fifties after the two world wars that split the continent, and it’s
still important today.
So, now we can only wait for the slogan, what will it be?
