On January 13, 2006, Rein entered the stage in Alta to become the first artist to illuminate the northernmost national Eurovision selection in the history of the European contest, and the televoters would send her to Oslo Spektrum and the final of Melodi Grand Prix 2006. Rein's composition, "Here for the Show", was written by three experienced Swedish producers/songwriters, and was criticized for having similarities to Robbie Williams', "Let Me Entertain You", which the authors also admitted had been their sole inspiration. The song did not qualify for the international finals though.
