Marie Fredriksson enjoyed McCartney live
Written by tevensso on May 5, 2003 to Marie Fredriksson.
STOCKHOLM - Last week we reported about a nice surprise for all Marie Fredriksson fans: Marie has recorded a song for Per Gessle’s new album “Mazarin”. “Marie is on her way back,” said Per then to Aftonbladet.
And she certainly is: Marie attended Paul McCartney’s concert in Globen, Stockholm, last night. Marie is a big fan of The Beatles and McCartney, so of course she couldn’t miss this event, that lasted almost three hours and was followed by 13,000 in the audience. Marie’s friend Eva Dahlgren and Benny Andersson were other artists that could be seen at the show.
Aftonbladet published earlier a picture of Marie at the concert, where you could see she seems very happy.

Maybe she is still on chemotheraphy. But remember, there were times when she had a short hair, :), it is her new style, maybe.

Puuuuhhhh
What can I say ?? ...... I am SHOCKED .......
I remember the pics from the meeting with the King in january this year....
WE LOVE YOU MARIE ... YOU ARE THE BEST ... I HAVE SO MUCH RESPECT!!!
DaminehGessle said on May 5, 2003 19:24:
Well your optimism is good but I guess I had a totally different reaction to seeing this picture. Marie was never this bold (skin-head) in any of her videos. I’d never seen her like this ever! So seeing this picture shocked me and I went oh very bald and shooooot before even reading the article. It’s very good that she is coming back but I could never imagine her this bald even when I knew she was going through chemo. Weird feeling!
ChrisWilliams said on May 5, 2003 20:44:
The picture seems to have been removed from Aftonbladet :-O
m-cvk said on May 5, 2003 20:45:
It’s great to see her smiling and that she’s happy. I’m convinced that she really is a very strong woman and I know that Micke and her kids were a great support for her.
Marie, you’re the best!
CU,

Marie really deserves the best. She is always the sweetest person :)

I am happy to see Marie looking better. Also, I admire her courage in being who she is hair or no hair.
powerpoplarry said on May 5, 2003 23:42:
AWESOME to see Marie back!! It IS inspiring to me that she had the courage to appear in public like that, and she looks great, hair or no hair.
LittleSpooky said on May 6, 2003 02:52:
I love that pic!!! Damn she looks GOOD!!!
*whistles* YOU GO LADY!!!!
Dragonox said on May 6, 2003 03:30:
With or without hair, it doesn’t matter to me as long as we still have Roxette for a long time! Plus she does seem “healthy and happy” and that’s what really matters!!!
Sparvogamarie said on May 6, 2003 08:14:
I think she looks gorgeous. But do you remember Per said a few weeks ago that her hair was back? So it seems that she shaved her own head. You can see the stubble and chemo usually doesn’t leave stubble on your head. I heard that hair grows too thin on places that have had radiation so maybe she shaved it to make it grow thicker, or maybe she just really likes this look! I think it’s cool.
camillarox said on May 6, 2003 09:18:
@ Sparvöga: “or maybe she just really likes this look! I think it’s cool.”
what the... I don’t think Marie LOVES to go around like this, it’s not like “oh great I have cancer now I can shave my head and look like Micke!” !!!!
One thing is that she shaves it so it looks more uniform and to grow it thick.. another is that she likes it.. and another that it is COOL!
omg...

There’s also a great picture of Marie on Finnish newspaper Ilta-Sanomat. She has a big smile!
Kiwein1 said on May 6, 2003 18:05:
The picture from her has been removed yesterday..don’t know whether Marie or Aftonbladet decided that.
Mari said on May 6, 2003 18:24:
Sorry, the Ilta-Sanomat picture is available only on paper version. And I don’t have a scanner :(
Kiwein1 said on May 6, 2003 19:05:

Marie looks happy and that’s really good!
It still is a bit shocking to see her bald, but I am sure she will soon be back.
