In May, Petra Mede will host the Eurovision Song Contest for the third time. The comedian, singer, actress and presenter tells us about her decision to return — and what it's like working with her co-host Malin Åkerman. She also teases "We Just Love Eurovision Too Much," the follow-up to "Love Love Peace Peace," which she's worked on with director and writer Edward af Sillén. Our interview ends with a moving discussion of Petra's early years as a ballerina — and the injury that changed her life forever. She tells us how she got back on her feet and offers advice for anyone struggling to get back to work.
