ABBA - ABBA SINGER BLASTS 'NEW AGE' FAITHS

Former ABBA star BJORN ULVAEUS has lashed out at stars who follow New Age religions - insisting they are just trying to boost record sales. The WATERLOO hitmaker believes musicians exploit fashionable belief systems such as Scientology and Kabbalah, because they want to impress their fans. He says, "I do believe that many artists are trend-sensitive. They travel a path that they believe can benefit their career. "Many of those who express political views or flirt with New Age and spirituality maybe don't share these views inside themselves."
