BENTE TULLBERG (VIC) - VICE PRESIDENT

I grew up in Denmark and with only two tv channels, Eurovision was THE event on TV . Luckily we lived close enough to Sweden to pick up their signal too, so I have grown up with idols like; Herreys, Carola, Hot Eyes... you get the drift.

First Eurovision I attended was in Copenhagen in 2001 and the year after I moved to Australia. I went back for a few more in Scandinavia, and in 2014 I was lucky enough to get the job as Delegation Hostess for Australia, when meant helping Jess Mauboy and the SBS crew during their stay in Denmark... Do you remember the statue of the little mermaid in the commentator box with Sam & Julia? Well, I got that for them 🙂

Two years later I was back in Stockholm to watch Eurovision and again ran into the SBS crew. Even got invited to join them after the grand final after we came second (so robbed)!

Now, I am back on the Committee and really looking forward to sharing the love for the contest with you all.
