Official Roxette Fan Club contacted EMI Svenska today to ask about the US record deal. This is what EMI's Li Eriksson replied:

There is no record deal ready yet. However, we are getting closer to a decision. And when that decision is made - it isn't ready until everyone's signature is on the contract.

Roxette's manager Marie Dimberg says:

This is only a rumour. Nothing has been settled yet and i'll confirm when it is.

Per also said when he visited Holland that making the contract takes time because they're trying to get the US release of "Don't Bore Us - Get To The Chorus!" included in the agreement.
