From EPA-dunk sensation Fröken Snusk to Melodifestivalen 2026 champion — Felicia Eriksson's journey to representing Sweden at Eurovision in Vienna is one of Swedish pop's most remarkable transformations.
Felicia Eriksson, 24, from Stockholm, first gained wide recognition performing as Fröken Snusk. Her song "Rid mig som en dalahäst" became one of the most streamed songs in Sweden in 2022, and she was the ninth most-streamed artist on Spotify in Sweden in 2023. After more than 300 live shows, she rebranded as Felicia in 2025, releasing "Black Widow" which reached the top three on Spotify Sweden. On March 7, 2026, she won Melodifestivalen with "My System," earning 161 points from jury and public vote combined.
