Last Thursday, the stage was set for the premiere party for this year’s “71 degrees north – team”, there Jorun Stiansen (39) and Alejandro Fuentes (35) is one of the teams.
In front of Se og Hør, they opened up about their friendship and why they think they are the “underdogs” of the season.
– Never cried so much
– Would have been murder
The duo have known each other for a long time. They first became known through their participation in “Idol” in 2005.
– When it comes to dealing with stressful situations in relation to performing on a stage, we have been there before and helped each other, as well as cried on each other’s shoulders, Fuentes said, adding:
– I’m glad it was Jorun, because we know each other so well and I know she will carry it out no matter what.
Stiansen also did not hide that she was pleased to have Fuentes as her tour partner in the reality show.
– I’m like a little lemming. If I had had a person who was the opposite of Alejandro, who had been in my face the whole time, there would have been murder in this year’s season of 71, Stiansen admitted and laughed.
Norway’s ugliest celebrity
– We are underdogs
Stiansen and Fuentes quickly decided to name their team “Team Hobbit”. The name comes from the fact that the duo believe they are the “underdogs” of the season.
– We are “underdogs” when it comes to maps and compasses, in addition to the fact that we are quite small people compared to the other giants here. Jorun is a bit used to the mountains, but I’m not at all, Fuentes admitted.
-Yes, I’ve had a cabin at Hovden for 39 years, but I go on day trips with a 15 liter rucksack and have quite a few chocolate breaks between kites, while some of the other competitors were born in the forest, and another has gone into the dead zone.
The duo nevertheless emphasized that there is nothing wrong with being “underdogs”.
– Being an “underdog” is not wrong. It could be good and hopefully we can surprise people.
