Alexander Rybak in a movie about himself

Norway: Fairytale - The Movie to be released soon

Alexander Rybak, Europe's newest celebrity and the winner of the Eurovision Song Contest 2009, is going to release a movie about himself, his backstage adventures in Moscow and his after-Eurovision tour.

After topping the majority of the European musical charts, Alexander Rybak, the latest Eurovision winner, is going to release a movie about himself and about the way his life changed after taking part in Europe’s favorite show. This was made possible with the help of a special team of cameramen who followed the Norwegian star almost everywhere during his tour supporting his Eurovision victory.

“The team of cameramen followed me everywhere. It was almost disturbing to reveal so many secrets”, he says.

A Norwegian tabloid has published an extract of the movie, highlighting a scene in which Alexander and his dancers are performing the song Fairytale in the style of Michael Jackson.


Alexander Rybak won the Eurovision Song Contest 2009, flying the flag for Norway, scoring an impressive 387 points. Afterwards, his self-composed song became a hit in Europe and topped the musical charts of Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Greece, Norway, Russia, Sweden and Ukraine.

More than I love Alexander Rybak. A film about his life already? Too early and what's the point.

Lol, he is so funny and cute, but a movie? Nah, not needed. Maybe documentary for TV, but not a movie. He should focus on a second album instead. And I want to see the Yohan movie soon!

I presume this will only be released in Norway and maybe Sweden. Can't see the rest of Europe being interested really. But still think very very deserved winner.....

I still don't understand why he won. Very overrated song. Good for top 10 but not a winner.

Well that was hardly my point, I dont care wether or not you like it, its not a surprising victory when its hands down the huge favorite.

It was a surprising victory. It was a very mediocre song sung by an average singer.

omg what is wrong with you people? its just a joke... Fine if you dont find it funny, but its not the end of the world.
And whoever the guy is who said it was a surprising victory; were you living under a rock in the months leading up to ESC...?

Alex has a great sense of humour, and he is funny. A good MJ-interpretation of Fairytale :D

That video should almost definitely be used as a new Don't drink campaign.

Anyway my thoughts on a Rybak movie? Oh god. OK first of all theres the Michael Jackson movie, and thats a good idea because he was known literally everywhere, and he had a very long story to be told ... but Rybak?! Come on!
