What Happened To The Blonde Chick???

Filed under: Music Minute > Photoshop Awardz

We saw the sign, and it didn't look like this!

Ace of Base is back, y'all.

One small thing: Only this time they are a trio.

Sigh.

It's just not the same!

On the bright side: Photoshop is your friend, bbs.

ysss thank god. its bcuz the blonde has fear of publicity.
Ace of Base fan says – reply to this

36

The answers to why Linn is gone is on Wikipedia. Well…sort of. Apparently she is very strange—she has ALWAYS hidden from view in music videos, and rarely supports AOB on tour. People think she has stage fright, or is afraid of flying in airplanes, but that might not be true.

Apparently she wrote a song called "Strange Ways" that is on one of their albums…and fans think it is about her behavior. She often hides behind pillars and is in the background at concerts. How odd!

I will miss her presence for some reason as well. Jenny and Linn were my favorite sister siblings in the 90s!

yawner… this is the best you can do with celebrity juice, lately it all has been so watered down…
*PennyLane84* says – reply to this

38

What on earth does bbs stand for and why does Perez keep using it? sometimes I think he only speaks his own language….
Anyways, im agreeing with alot of you…that dark haired girl looks ALOT like Celine Dion
They had a couple of good songs but I dont see this line-up really working out since the blinde girl sang lead vocals and was a stronger singer, but it should be intersting….

Finishing 2007 Ace of Base announced an a official return, but become a trio, the blonde Malin Berggren had left the band and apparently without intensities to comeback, since 1998 she was moving away of the band and he could not leave them completely because a contract for five albums of the record label tied her.

These days Ace of Base is being presented in Europe - By world tour; they have carried out concerts in Russia, Denmark, Estonia, Norway, Bulgaria, and Ukraine. The band assured that they will continue with their live shows and they will have more world tour's dates around the world.

The new album of Ace of Base will be double CD, the first will contain unreleased songs and the other will be with all hits reworked and remixed. The date at the outset of the first single expects for June, 2008 and the album for September.

kat says – reply to this

52

u kno - she could be a stand in for Celine dion….
D-Base says – reply to this

53

Linn has been pretty much off the band for the past decade, she sang on the last album and appeared on the videos but that was it. The official explaination to her departure is that she has other things to do and focuses on her education (she's back in university) and her family.

Anyone who wants to know the most recent news around the band u can read it at wikipedia. There is a very good article about Linn too.

The Greek Giant says – reply to this

Hello, The Greek Giant here in a silk robe spinning pirouettes across my palatial Los Angeles estate to the smooth tunes of Ace of Bass while you impoverished American office workers beg your slavemaster bosses for a worthless US$13 cash bonus. Your minds are narrow but your assholes are wide due to your weekly asshole pummelings.

Meanwhile I, The Greek Giant, am fabulously wealthy and am commanding all of my American Cabana Boys to meet in the study, so they can bathe my cute little pug dog Precious and manicure her nails. She gets very upset when her nails are not smoothly textured, so they must work with care. That is all.

62

jhhahaha the fat dude is stillt the same
Xelexte says – reply to this

63

The blonde one, as far as I know, received several serious and repeated death threats by some crazy fan for a long time, so she started panicking and hiding from the spotlight at some point. Now I guess she probably didn't want to come back after all the shit she's been through.
aubrey says – reply to this

Some of yall were right. This is what happened to her…

kateloot says – reply to this

67

who cares what happened to her? if anything she's staying the hell away from that stupid group.
Twizzler says – reply to this

68

Perez you got me interested in what happened to the blonde girl (Linn Bergrren) well its a weird story, she didn't like her photo being taken and in concerts she would only perform behind things like pillar or in the dark. Peculiar to say the least. Phobia? Stage Fright?
djchaco says – reply to this

69

Damn! They look great.

The 411 is Malin, the blonde, has not performed with them for over a decade now. She was never in it for fame and it was too much to deal with, so she has gradually 'faded' out and is a reclusive student in Goteborg, Sweden.

AOB is releasing new remix albums and new material later this year.

SnusJunkie says – reply to this

74

I wonder why people still ask what happened to the blonde…
She's been out of the band for 10 years now, she was just singing a couple of songs in the since then and now finally she's totally out! She sang most of the singles of the 1st album but ther sister is the one that sang most of their songs and sounds better live!
Cna't wait for the new album in september, it will have a darker sound!
Acer says – reply to this

75

It was that one who was attaked by a fan and not her blonde sister!
I like the new look and their new sound! Can't wait for something new!
Sasha says – reply to this

Oh my God, that woman looks freakishly like Celine Dion!!!!!
Pete says – reply to this

81

She looks like Celine Dion in that first pic! Did she just die her hair dark or is it a totally different chick?
Kibbell says – reply to this

82

The singer develloped some sort of agoraphobia for some unknown reason. When they were still together in the past you could see her in the background on their latest video's. About the solo parts, maybe she came out better than the brunette, cos her voice is a little more distinctive, but they both sang equal solo parts. Just check the video's. It is true that one of the guys has/had som neo-nazi sympathies. That's quite some scary shit. The blond one isn't gay. In Europe men just dare to dress like that. Look at David Beckham. It might be percieved as gay in the States, which is silly.
