Another celebrity has made himself known in Masked Singer Sweden. Behind Fjärilsfen hid the writer Camilla Läckberg – and taking part turned out to be more challenging than she expected. – It triggered a certain fear of death, she tells TV4. During Friday evening, it was time for yet another person to take off the mask in Masked Singer Sweden, and the famous face behind Butterfly was none other than Camilla Läckberg. The reason why the author participates is youngest daughter Polly. – It’s actually thanks to Polly. I can speak in front of the entire Globe, but singing is completely out of my comfort zone. We watched season two and when the panel guessed that Lokatten was me, Polly looked at me and laughed. She said that “you can’t sing mother”, Camilla Läckberg tells TV4. – Then I thought that bastard, if they ask, I’ll say yes! I decided that then and there, just to put her in her place. You shouldn’t say that mom can’t do something! Daughter Polly about Camilla Läckberg being behind the mask At the end of the program we see a video of a shocked Polly at home on the TV sofa who gets to see her mother behind the mask. The daughter got to see the episode a couple of days before the rest of Sweden’s population. – She is so ridiculously proud, she sits and draws the Butterfly all the time. And she has been so good at keeping quiet for her classmates! She is so proud and I have promised to drop her off at preschool on Monday, says Camilla Läckberg about her daughter’s reaction. Camilla is a mother of four, but the only one who got to see the program before everyone else was Polly. – The children will probably be very surprised. I don’t think they think I would do it for all the butter in Småland. “Triggered a certain death anxiety” Camilla Läckberg’s greatest fear was to lose herself completely, to lose it in front of the audience when she had to master both singing and dancing. If the mask alleviated her fears? – In my case, no. Before the program, Camilla Läckberg had mainly prepared for the psychological side. But it turned out to be more challenging than that. – I was not prepared for how physically challenging it would be to wear the mask. I have asthma – and suffer from claustrophobia – a completely new discovery actually. It triggered a certain fear of death, she says. – I had a panic sign that I was going to do so that they could quickly take off my mask. And the panic sign came into play. But never in front of the audience, only under the ropes. How fun was it all on a scale of one to ten? – It was ten! So crazy fun and absurd, to put on the costumes and find out what you were supposed to be. Getting to practice with a vocal coach and to rehearse a dance number with an ensemble, as long as I didn’t have to do it in front of an audience… – Terrible fun and deathly fear, that sums it up very well.
