Måns Zelmerlöw Releases Autobiography “When Everything Falls”

-

Swedish Eurovision winner Måns Zelmerlöw has released his new autobiography, När allt faller (“When Everything Falls”), offering readers an intimate look at the experiences that have shaped his life and career.

The book was developed during an 18-month period in which Zelmerlöw stepped back from the public eye to reflect on his life, his experiences and the journey that brought him to where he is today. Writing the autobiography became a form of therapy and self-reflection, allowing the singer to process difficult experiences and put his feelings into words.

In När allt faller, Zelmerlöw shares his own perspective for the first time on a highly publicised period that had a major impact on his life. He openly reflects on how a love story came to a painful end, while also taking readers back to his childhood, his years of humanitarian work in Africa and his search for a new chapter of life at a vineyard in Staffanstorp, Sweden.

Described through a combination of humour, warmth and honesty, the book explores a period of chaos in Zelmerlöw’s life, as well as his journey towards finding his way forward after the music went quiet and everything seemed to fall apart.

Zelmerlöw is best known to Eurovision fans for winning the 2015 Eurovision Song Contest with “Heroes”, giving Sweden its sixth victory in the competition. He later returned to the contest as a host and has remained one of Sweden’s most recognisable Eurovision figures.

När allt faller was released on 2 September 2026. The audiobook edition will follow on 23 September.

Cunk on Eurovision: The Most Important Thing to Ever Happen to Europe, Probably

  Hello, I’m Philomena Cunk. And today, we’ll be looking at Eurovision—the musical extravaganza that happens every year and is watched by millions of Europeans and Australians for some reason. Eurovision isn’t just a song contest. It’s a cultural phenomenon. And like most cultural phenomena, it’s both confusing and deeply upsetting. What Even Is Eurovision? Eurovision was invented in 1956, back when Europeans decided they needed a competition to determine who could sing the loudest while wearing the shiniest trousers. It’s like the Olympics, but instead of running and jumping, people stand still and shout in tune. Oh, and no one ever wins a medal. They just get a big glass microphone, which seems impractical because microphones are supposed to amplify sound, not shatter when you yell into them. The idea was simple: bring Europe together through the power of music. Because nothing says unity like making countries compete against each other. That’s why Eurovision is both a cel...

While some found her behavior rude and offensive, her supporters argued that her actions were a satirical critiqu...

Mascots are symbolic characters that represent the host country or the theme of the contest. Though not a regular feature every year, when they appear, they add charm and personality to the event. These mascots are often designed to reflect cultural motifs, the host country’s identity, or the contest's overarching theme.
