Alessandra Mele, who was scheduled to award Norway's points during the show, has withdrawn from the task, according to broadcaster NRK.

A press release from the Norwegian outlet says Mele, who represented her country in the competition last year, withdrew due to the "inflamed situation in Malmo this year".

Mele and her management team have not yet commented on the development.

NRK's channel host Ingvild Helljesen has taken over Mele's role, it said in the statement.
