No more leave me alones as Eurovision 2007 veteran Hanna Pakarinen has published in her Youtube channel a video unboxing the Finnish state's maternity box aka layette set thus announcing she's due to have a baby later this spring. Congratulations!

Congratulations to Hanna Pakarinen who married her drummer boy Risto Niinikoski in Temppeliaukio church in Helsinki They have been together for then ten years. And off they go to the Honeymoon in Los Angeles...... No more leave me alones I hope..... PS. These days it's been also reported Krista Siegfrids will finally get married this fall, too, but the date hasn't been revealed.....

Yes, it is true. Exactly ten years ago Hanna Pakarinen represented Finland in Helsinki 2007 Eurovision song contest with Leave me alone . Until now she has avoided seeing her performance. Last weekend in YLE's preview show she promised to watch it now, ten years after, and film the reaction.  Originally she decided not to see it, as she never watched any of her performances being over self critical. And now, it's so hard to push the play in Youtube. Tummy aches, cold seat, nervous giggles...  Play! ..... "Love the Hair!" .... "OMG so many flags!".... "oh, little....." tears. .. "That stage is so awesome!".... "go band!".... "Oh the bombs! (giggles)" ...  After teary eyed Hanna confrms it was worth waiting ten years. And she tells she can see herself how nervous she has been. And that it was an emotional rollercoaster. That is one one of the, if not the coolest thing ever.  Here it is....

Hanna Pakarinen turns 36 today, ten years after she represented Finland at home in Helsinki 2007 Eurovision. Her career is still going strong :-) Congratulations!
