Måns Zelmerlöw is truly a man of the moment! The Swedish singer, who will represent his nation at the 2015 Eurovision Song Contest in Vienna, will be performing on X Factor Adria on Sunday 17 May.

Måns Zelmerlöw won the right to represent Sweden at the 60th Eurovision Song Contest in May following victory at the Melodifestivalen final in March. His entry, Heroes, is favourite to win the Contest with bookmakers and the 28-year-old from the city of Lund has embarked upon a hectic promotional schedule, including recent performances on The Voice of Finland and in Amsterdam last Saturday.

X Factor Adria, a Balkan production of the international talent show franchise The X Factor, encompasses Serbia, Croatia, Montenegro, FYR Macedonia and Bosnia-Herzegovina. The Serbian superstar Željko Joksimović, a former Eurovision Song Contest participant, host, and songwriter (who has also composed Adio by Knez, Montenegro’s 2015 entry), is a judge on the show, and Daniel Kajmakoski, who will represent FYR Macedonia in Vienna with Autumn leaves, won the first season of X Factor Adria in 2014. With his guest performance next month, Måns Zelmerlöw will be reaching a huge audience across the Balkans just a week before the Vienna extravaganza.

With a crammed schedule of interviews, public appearances, rehearsals, recordings, a performance at a upcoming concert… Måns Zelmerlöw is a hero of a (very busy) time! Read all about him and sing along to Heroes, which will contest the second semi-final of the 2015 Eurovision Song Contest from a starting position of thirteenth.
