Good Evening Norway (TV 2): Artist Alexandra Rotan (25) did not dare to tell her parents what she actually did the day before the final in «Battle of the Stars». Now she reveals her lie.
Continue readingAlexandra Rotan is the favorite of the VG readers. So far this autumn, they have rewarded her with three sixes and six fives on the VG dice throw for their efforts in “Battle of the Stars”.
Thus, she has beaten the competitor Bjørn Tomren with a six and a five and on Saturday night, she is ready for the finals in this autumn’s “Battle of the Stars” on NRK.

The recent silver winner reveals that the band project is running a deficit internationally. Next autumn, she will start a solo career.
This weekend, Alexandra Rotan congratulated her “Battle of the Stars” rival Bjørn Tomren on the victory – apparently just as jubilantly happy, after ten weeks of exposure in prime time on NRK.
Exposure is also a key word for the band she is known as a third of, the Melodi Grand Prix institution KEiiNO.
In a recent application to the Norwegian Cultural Council for the Statens kunstnerstipend, Rotan says that the band does not make money outside the home country’s borders.

On earth
I’m never coming down
Venus
Ready for your blinding light
What if
I was the only girl
Venus
Teach me to rule the world
I’m strong
See me now I’m shining bright
I’m over the fear
Of letting them down
I’m ready to own my destiny
I’m letting them go
The demons in me
I’m letting you go
I’m cutting signals off from ground control
I see a goddess floating in the sky
She tells me all you have to do is fly
Venus I’m burning in the atmosphere
And I don’t care now if I shine too bright
I’ve seen the beauty in the blinding light
Now I can
Fly
She says
My prosperity
My life
Only belongs to me
Venus
Rise me up and set me free
I cant
Can’t be the only girl
Ready
Waiting to rule the world
Venus
Rise them up and set them free
I know that you’re scared
Of taking the crown
They make it seem so impossible
If you let them go
The demons in you
Girl, you let them go
I’m cutting signals off from ground control
I see a goddess floating in the sky
She tells me all you have to do is fly
Venus I’m burning in the atmosphere
And I don’t care now if I shine too bright
I’ve seen the beauty in the blinding light
Now I can
Fly
Cause they blinded me
Now I finally see
They can’t bring me down
I got with Venus with me
No more holding me back
She’s been calling me
from the day I was born
You’re my warrior
Princess
A goddess
A queen
I’m cutting signals off from ground control
I see a goddess floating in the sky
She tells me all you have to do is fly
Venus I’m burning in the atmosphere
And I don’t care now if I shine too bright
I’ve seen the beauty in the blinding light
Now I can
Fly
As a lot of KEiiNO fans probably noticed, Tom’s birthday was yesterday. He turned 42 years old, and what other great way of celebrating a birthday than doing what you love the most, performing on a scene? So Tom and the Rainbowfamily performed at Brød & Cirkus in Oslo last night.
Continue readingOn Saturday and during the weekend, a total of 908,000 people realized that Carina Dahl had to leave “Battle of the Stars” in the semifinals.
In comparison, there were 526,000 who saw that it was Royane Harkati who went out out of “Shall we dance” the week before the quarterfinals.
The audience numbers last weekend were 861,000 for “Battle of the Stars” and 491,000 for “Shall we dance”.
Good evening, VolKEiiNOs,
I hope you are all well and somewhat recovered after last night’s magical performance?
I was contacted by NRK to please tell you that ALL KEiiNO fans can get FREE tickets to be in the audience for the recording of Beat for Beat on November 3rd, where Tom and Alexandra are participants.
All you have to do is to contact her on e-mail: nrk@publikum.no – send a mail with the line: beat for beat 03/11, and tell how many tickets you would like.
Please only serious requests – if you actually intend to be there, so they avoid emtpy seats.
What a magical evening
Is Alexandra for real? Or is she a figment of our wishful imaginations?
Nine Saturdays in a row, Alexandra Rotan has now blown us over with her talent. Saturday after Saturday, she overdid herself from the Saturday before, and more than a few times did she leave both audience and judges in tears.
Of course we knew she was great, but over the weeks she has grown even further, and she may not have a professional musical education behind her like so many others, but giving her the stamp PROFESSIONAL would be appropriate after this.
Continue readingAlexandra Rotan had surgery to remove a small part of her cervix out of fear of developing cancer when she was diagnosed with a serious change of cells.
In 2019, the KEiiNO singer and “Battle of the Stars” participant found the courage to see a gynecologist for the first time. The cell samples showed moderate to small cell changes, while the following year showed small to no changes.
Early in the spring of this year came the shock – the sample suddenly showed large cell changes.
Oh my god it’s Armageddon
I just saw a demon in the park
All I see is stars
and I feel it in my heart
I’m all ready now, Celestial
Hey, it’s just the end of time
If you wear those pants up to the door
They will let you in
cause you wear them like a sin
I’m all ready now, Celestial

Just days before the deadline, the magic that sent Tom Hugo Hermansen to Eurovision arose
The melody line fell into his head one summer day in 2015. For the next three years, producer and songwriter Tom Hugo Hermansen pondered how it could be used.
