As we previously reported, Marie Fredriksson, her husband Mikael Bolyos and son Oscar with Pelle Alsing on drums did a suprising performance at Monrad’s, a delicacy shop in Stockholm’s Djursholm, on May 29. There are many photos from the soundcheck and the concert itself on the shop’s official website.

Today on DagensSvenskbladet, Swedish humorous site, was published an article about Per Gessle and “his close relation” to Michael Jackson entitled “Gessle: It could’ve been me as well”. The title says all. To be honest, I do not see any point in translating more of this fake interview. I suppose, it was thought to be funny, but I do not really think it is.
(Updated) Per commented on it on his Twitter page on July 11 :
No, this “interview” is 100% fake. It’s supposed to be funny, I think. Didn’t get it though.
By the way – the only thing Per said regarding the death of Michael Jackson was on June 26 on his own website:
Incomprehensible and terribly sad. A master has left us. We will never experience anyone like him again.
