In 2012 Thorsten Flinck competed with I rise again. Then there was sharp criticism of Flinck for taking Gina Dirawi the host on the ass in live broadcast, but now he is back with the song Miracles time.
Anette Helenius, project manager for the Melodifesite elections, says that the incident is now out.
- That incident happened in live broadcast, I was not myself at the time when Gina was in the green room as a host and Torsten, I have for him that he patted her on the butt and she dismissed him during broadcast.
- As I understand it, it is exhausted. That does not change what happened, but it is almost eight years ago, she says.
