She is....the CEO of her own company, singer
She lives in Helsingborg. Anette loves to live in the city, but no bigger city than Helsingborg. Her city has appr. 130 000 citizens so that's perfect size for her. She doesn't like to live in a small village where everyone knows her and where she can't be anonymous, so if she would live outside the city it needs to be in the middle of the forest or out by a field.
about her religion:
I am a Christian and I believe in God and Jesus and I pray every day. I go to my church (I live next to it;=) every week to get strength and it gives me peace and strength to carry one every day;=) I have always been Christian and my faith has been there since I was really young and attended church every week. I also sang gospel for many years in my 20s;=) Going to church is wonderful but I appreciate more to go there by myself and pray than to attend the mass. I think whatever we believe in, I think its good to believe in something;=)

Her opinion about the album "The Unforgiven" (within Temptation):
"I like WT:s new album. It´s different from their former ones for sure but fun that they do something new and different. I especially love Faster since it´s so catchy. I also love how Sharon now uses her belting voice much more. Gives a rockier sound;=)"
She would like to sing a cover of a Within Temptation. She loves What have you done, Stand my ground and Our farewell.
She has first solo album of Tarja and she likes it. Her own song she wrote are just so beautiful.
If she could sing with other singer, it would be Sting and if Michael Jackson still were alive, with him.
She woudnt ever tought to realize one song in swedish. She has been singing in swedish before, in weddings and so on, but it´s not the language she want to use when she sings. She likes to sing in english so that more people can understand what she sing. She doesn't like to sing in swedish. It feels better to sing in english so that doesn´t feel weird at all.
And then being a swede in a finnish band works quite well. It´s a great mix to be swedish singer in the finnish band and sinnging english. Of course they are very different, finns and swedes, but there are also some similarities. The language problem are not so big more than when it comes to irony and some jokes. Irony is quite different between countries she has learned.
How many language does she know:
She speaks swedish and english. She understand and speak a little bit of french, german and danish, norwegian. She understands a little little bit of finnish.
Her official site made a guy from Denmark called Dimi. He has made the web site for the band Europe and than for Anette. http://www.anette-olzon.com/
The hardest song to sing:
"If I am gonna pick one or two now I say Ghost love Scores beginning, since it is the head voice I am a bit insecure of and then Escapist, since it is so high in the chorus and lots of words;=)"
Her superstitions before going on stage:
She prays before she goes on stage and she also does this kinda "smacking" all over my body to get going.
Her most memorable fan experience:
Anette does remember one where a girl threw herself on the concrete before Anette's feet and just cried. It was quite in the beginning and Anette felt a bit "awkward" about it, but it was still of course really nice that she got so happy over seeing Anette. But Anette was worried about her lying there.

Which job did she have before Nightwish?
waitress, sales person, consultant, secretary, project assistant and hair dresser.
If Nightwish ended tommorow, what would she do next?
She would probably do music like now, but also do a "normal" job and she dreams of becoming a midwife so she would study to be that.
She never thought about any other stage name from the start, but then she got the question from the management if she could use Anette Olsson since it´s easier to pronounce and then she thought Anette Olzon was nicer spelling.
