Ten artists have been selected, and Heidi is not the only one with musical -and theater background. Øystein Wiik (58) also participate in the competition.
Major challenges
– This will be my first big music competition on TV, and I am very excited to join, says Heidi to Fredriksstad Sheet .
That she must contend with a variety of musical genres she basically is not so familiar with, she sees as an exciting challenge.
– I hope I stay on as long that I get sung heavy rock. I have not done before. Rap can also be fun, she smiles.
Three performances
Do not think that participation in the Star Game is Heidi’s only job in the fall.
– I will also participate the whole three productions at The Norwegian Theatre, including Brand and Sweeney Todd. Fortunately, I have a decent theater manager who has arranged it so that scene jobbing not crash into the television appearance, she says.
