ABBA To Reunite Amid Royal Wedding Performance Rumours?

December 29, 2010
ABBA To Reunite Amid Royal Wedding Performance Rumours?ABBA singer Agnetha Faltskog has said she would consider reforming with her former bandmates.

It comes amid reports that the Swedish pop group have been tipped to play next year’s Royal Wedding between Prince William and Kate Middleton.

Swedish newspaper The Local quoted Faltskog as saying that she wanted to meet with her ex-husband Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson and Anni-Frid Prinzessin Reuss von Plauen to discuss a comeback.

"A reunion, an occasional opportunity, maybe in connection with a charity event, I believe we could consider it," she said.

"We would not reunite for a tour like the Rolling Stones and other old bands do now.”

“However, I could see us doing something together in the future. It is just a feeling I have that it would be fun to get together, talk a bit about the past and maybe perform together.”

Meanwhile, Ladbrokes have offered odds of 66-1 for ABBA to play the Royal Wedding on April 29.

Other acts tipped to perform include Sir Elton John and Sir Paul McCartney.
