Jessica Andersson and Magnus Bäcklund are putting on the "Fame Reunion Christmas Show" at Ronneby Brunn in July with the premiere on November 22.

"Over 20 years have passed since Magnus and I won Melodifestivalen with 'Give me your love', and now we're going to treat you to a cavalcade of total nostalgia!", writes Jessica Andersson on Instagram.

Jessica Andersson and Magnus Bäcklund formed a duo after their participation in "Fame factory" on TV3 in 2002. The group came fifth in the Eurovision Song Contest 2003, but broke up a few years later.

Jessica Andersson continued as a solo artist, among other things as the anchor for the summer show "Diggiloo", while Magnus Bäcklund has worked as a pilot.
