Abba’s Benny Andersson a bit crazy
Meryl Streep has called Abba’s Benny Andersson “a bit crazy” for wanting to make a record with her.
The Mamma Mia! star said that Andersson gave her Abba’s Greatest Hits to help her prepare for her role in the record-breaking movie.
Speaking about a future collaboration, Streep told Metro: “I think he’s a bit crazy. I know great singers, I’m lucky to know them. I know what a great singer is. I’m OK. I’m an actress who sings.”
The Oscar-winning star said agreeing to be in the musical film was a “no-brainer” and that working on it was a “joy from beginning to end”.
She said: “I loved this thing. When I first saw the show with my children, I loved it. It’s a benign thing to put into the world and we need some benign benignity!”
