The photos are so damn cool! They get back to their punk look of the early days, but in an updated form. Great hairdos, great natural look!

I agree with anonymous: He just looks gay - especially the nails !

What about Per’s toes? Are they painted like Marie on the right picture? Hmmm... let’s guess!

Bonne journée! / Have a nice day!

natasha1 said on October 10, 2002 13:01:

I have already downloaded the one on the left as my wallpaper at work!
They are so scrumptious and sexy.
It’s a Roxette comeback!!!

Sascha said on October 10, 2002 14:46:

I think Per looks a bit like a little boy with his big dark eyes. If he ever didn’t look masculine, then it was in Joyride era with all the make-up...

Jud (moderator) said on October 10, 2002 14:47:

@daniel_alv: Emi.se say 21st...

SugarBabe said on October 10, 2002 15:50:

Hej Hej!
What can i say!?!?!?
They look great as always!!! Per..wow...you are more than sexy! I love you =)

natasha1 said on October 10, 2002 16:25:

Just because he has painted his nails or has worn make up it does not mean he doesn’t look masculine - he is an artist and it is an artistic approach.
They have changed their image slightly and I think it rox !

Desert-Moon said on October 10, 2002 18:22:

Wow! I’ve made a 800x600 wallpaper with the 2 pictures side by side and it looks fantactic on my computer!

Bonne journée! / Have a nice day!

zeeshan said on October 10, 2002 20:26:

Per looks OLD and TIRED!! :(

Diny said on October 10, 2002 21:16:

great pics...but the single comes out on 21st??? I thought 14th???

Spooky_Roxie said on October 10, 2002 21:52:

AAAAAARRGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! >:o( Per and his BLACK NAILS............. and those shoes........ Gosh, I hate his new image >:o(

Mfan28179-Jason said on October 11, 2002 02:33:

Woah. Great pics. And I love Per’s new style!

Pincette said on October 11, 2002 10:22:

Marie looks sooo great! But Per... i don´t know. I hate his black nails.. and he needs a proper meal!

RoxiRoxt said on October 11, 2002 11:15:

You guys are really overdo about Pers weight and his black nailpolish. Don´t you recognize that Marie also has black nailpolish. So you can see that this is only for the videoshoot. And about Pers weight. He is old enough to decide how thin or fat he is. If he is feeling good like he is so let him go. Its his own body he can do with it what he want and he won´t not hear what you say. And what is this bullshit that he has maybe bulemy??? A person who have bulemy doesn´t look so good like Per do. He don´t look ill, old or tired. Per looks dammned SEXY!!! Better than ever. Like Marie. She looks really cool and young.
Those pictures are really great. Both are looking great like never before.
Roxette are the best!!!! ROX ON!!!!!!

rox-kuryliw said on October 11, 2002 13:36:

very nice pics , one of them SHOULD be ballads album front cover with the rasberry heart in corner with roxette writtern in it, similar to the sheild on room service cover. now that i would be cool lol !!! its an idea.

ps one sexy pic of marie !

natasha1 said on October 11, 2002 15:18:

I can’t stop looking at these photos....I just want Marie so much...she is absolutely gorgeous!!!
I have called HMV and Virgin record stores in London and they don’t have a release date for the single or the album which means they are not going to be stocking it?
What next?

-Gee- said on October 11, 2002 19:20:

hmmm i still have that Per-losing-weight thing worrying me... his hands looked much stronger last year.....

and his arms are so horrible thin, you can see all the adders, that wasn’t that way when i last saw him.... *sorrow*

gyllene_tjej said on October 12, 2002 14:10:

stop spreading this bulimy crap!! He looks great and he IS still pretty soft, I happened to find out when we hugged ;-)) And I love the shoes too :)

vivien said on October 12, 2002 14:20:

To Gyllene tjej.
When did you hug him?
Can you tell a little more?
I just said Hej to him ,I am too shy.

Being thin doesn‘t mean being sick.
My weight has always been about 48 kg´s and I don‘t have bulimy either.
(I am 1,63 m)

gyllene_tjej said on October 12, 2002 20:48:

@vivien: send me an e mail, then we can have some Bunny talk! :)))) and I will give you my Per details .o)

Marc-Bergwerk said on October 13, 2002 03:39:

Holy shit! What are those finger nails all painted in black matching one another? I just hated, someone has to tell Per that men don’t get their nails painted and tell Roxette that it was the tackiest thing they’ve ever done to match their nails. Sometimes they have the worst ideas... Nah, Per, getting the nails painted is a thing for fags...

frodi said on October 13, 2002 15:23:

couldn’t be much better...

stanislava said on October 13, 2002 15:51:

the pics r great.it could be great to see THe oLD ROXETTE,lookin’ like 91’.SWEEL...

gyllene_tjej said on October 13, 2002 16:11:

really? Personally i disagree, for me they are looking hotter and hotter the older they get :) I love their style much more now :)
@vivien: tack för ditt mejl, jag hör av mig snart :)

roxchurch said on October 14, 2002 09:11:

i think that Marie is superb– stanislava is right – she looks like in older days, but yesss she is even the hotter now!!
and Per is looks much better on the pix- maybe he must shot the video in these clothes...

IVAN THE DJ FROM BULGARIA –IZPRATI MI EMAIL NA [email protected] ako ne si Ivo:-))

natasha1 said on October 15, 2002 12:55:

To Marc Bergwerk,

Leave off the fag remarks...

To the messgae Master,

Why is it you delete what

natasha1 said on October 15, 2002 12:59:

I believe the messgae master is homophobic!
When I write asking people to not make gay comments they are deleted from my message before it is posted...but ALLOWS people to write “NAIL POLISH IS FOR FAGS” !

That is pure homophobia and it shouldn’t be allowed!

All roxette fans should come together and accept one another...not be fighting each other.

Marie-fan said on October 16, 2002 13:35:

Wow, great pix. Marie looks so great. I LOVE THEM
