Norway’s Eurovision Head of Delegation, Stig Karlsen, has announced that he’s resigning from his position which he held for a decade.
Karlsen made the move to resign after taking on a new position as the head of communications for Jannicke Mikkelsen, Norway’s first female astronaut, during Mikkelsen’s SpaceX mission.
Karlsen explains, “Ten years is a decent length of time for a project, and now this fantastic offer came up with a Norwegian astronaut, so now the time had come.”
It is yet unclear who will take over Karlsen, as it’s a high-responsibility job and a task that needs extra recruitment.
During Karlsen’s time as Head of Delegation, Norway only failed once to reach the Grand Final in 2019.
