Third Time Lucky
Zara Larsson were named female live performer for the third consecutive year – and were surprised on stage by Malena Ernman who gave an inflammatory speech to her:
– It takes courage to operate their opinions in a society where change is the same as fear. It takes strength to go against the structures that restrict half the population.
Ernman also handed over a special prize to Zara Larsson from Aftonbladet for her gender struggle and “tireless work in the music industry and the community”.
This year male artist was not entirely unexpected Eurovision winner Mans Zelmerlöw who also appeared at the gala and tricks prize for best song “Heroes”.
