This is in Swedish, I know, and not immediately understandably to everybody, but I felt I had to share it anyway! In the late seventies, at the height of ABBA's fame, a famous Swedish comedian, Bosse Parnevik, managed to engage Frida in a conversation impersonating Charlie Norman, a legendary pianist and long time collaborator of hers before ABBA. The joke is basically that he first invites the foursome as guests to a fancy party, which makes her delighted, but ends up asking her if it's OK that they 'eat in the kitchen'!
What's brilliant is that his impression is so good that she believes it (remember, she knew Norman well) and that she doesn't lose her composure, though you can tell that she gets more and more annoyed. Our lady is a good sport!
Here's Frida with the real Norman, doing a Supremes spoof in 1970:

I love pranks and Frida all together; I once saw an English translation of the Bosse script and I found it to be quite amusing. I don't have the link, unfortunately, but it was well thought of the comedian himself...
