It's just about a comedic performance where the comedian in question parodies Mette-Marit.

Thanks Larzen.
With the current documentary, I was hoping MM does not have another blow.
Cheers!

I don't know whether this is the place to post this, but I found this video:

I can understand some of the parody on it, but I would like to know exactly what is the woman saying
Thanks in advance and sorry for the inconvenience

Well, first she is starting by overutilizing the words "Hyggelig" & "Fint" (Cozy and nice" as Mette-Marit is wont to do - and then she talks about how being a clown can be sad on the inside even if it is happy on the outside. Then she talks about abuse problems: how she's abused jokes, and how she, at the opening of some tunnels on the West Coast, made a joke that fell flat and Haakon was the only one who laughed, when they got home, but it was only to be nice... It's an amusing parody, imo, in that it is funny in places, and isn't vicious.

Wasn't there a reference to that famous "youthful experiment"-statement from the pre-engagement interview too?

Default Mette-Marit parody?

I found this on YouTube and it seems to be a gentle parody of the crown princess. The actress looks a LOT like Mette-Marit! But unfortunately, I don't speak Norwegian. Could someone give me the gist of what is said?

Looks like people watching parody of MM had real fun. I wish could understand anything.
Actress playing MM is very pretty and really similar to CP.

New youtube link to a parody of CP M-M. I don't know if it was the same as the other link posted before. That link has been removed from youtube.

Wow, impressive!

However, isn't Norwegian somewhat similar to German? (If I may ask)

I like listening to the parody. Norwegian sounds so soft and beautiful when spoken ... very lilting, actually.

And, the audience seemed to get a BIG kick out of the parody, too.
