Finland’s former prime minister complained that she seems to be more known for infamous videos of her dancing than for her leadership.
Sanna Marin became Finland’s youngest prime minister at just 34-years-old and quickly became a symbol of a new liberal movement in Europe.
But two years into her term, videos of her gyrating in a lacy black tank top circled the internet and a separate video later emerged of her grinding in a club with a man that wasn’t her husband.
Today, the ex-politician — who recently released a memoir and has 1 million Instagram followers — laments the association with the videos, telling the New York Times she’s fighting to build “a world where you can, yes, dance freely when the day’s work is done.”
The viral videos show Marin unleashing suggestive dance moves while friends cheer her on.
Marin led her country through the COVID-19 pandemic, and guided Finland to join NATO, but the dance moves that tainted her reputation still leaves her bitter.

I’d dance with her...
She’s divorced and back in the market.
I think I can easily say that Laz would....
That's usually the way it goes, Sanna. You spend a lifetime building a career and accomplishments and one infamous moment pushes all that aside.
The COVID-19 pandemic in Finland...
Confirmed cases 1,513,469[3][4]
Hospitalized cases 314[5]
Recovered 1,458,121[6]
Deaths 11,466[3][4]
Fatality rate 0.76%
Less than one percent fatal of known cases.
On 29 January 2020, the first case in Finland was confirmed, when a Chinese tourist visiting Ivalo from Wuhan tested positive for the virus.[1]
Marin is a vegetarian.
A “Rainbow Fan”. Oh, so that how they prefer being described. A description wide open to interpretation.
When I look at cabinet meetings in this country am I looking at a Barbie Doll collection?
No pic?
No video of the ‘dancing’?
This post sucks.
She is a babe with plenty of tread left on her. At least she will make money off her book. iirc her father was in Finnish politics.
Trump should commute her sentence. Fly this PM babe to Mar a Lago to mingle. She should be an influencer based in Florida or Dubai. Avoiding Only Fans.
As if anyone needed more evidence that politicians are actors and actresses and that the real power is offstage.
Marin’s book traces her journey through Finnish politics, her government’s handling of the Covid pandemic, and Finland’s historic move to join NATO. After losing the 2023 election, she stepped back from Finnish politics >>>>>>> >>>>>>> (wtf!) and took a strategic role at the Tony Blair Institute, focusing on international issues and public advocacy.
You are recalling Sanna Marin, Finland’s former prime minister, who recently released her memoir, “Hope in Action: A Memoir About the Courage to Lead.” While Marin is expected to earn from book sales and public speaking, her background is not from a wealthy or traditional political family. In fact, she was raised by her mother and her mother’s same-sex partner, coming from a modest, working-class background in Tampere, Finland, and was the first in her immediate family to finish high school. Her political rise was independent—her father was not involved in Finnish national politics, but rather struggled with alcoholism and was mostly absent from her upbringing.
Twerking sorority girls are just what’s needed to keep the Russian bear at bay.
“ Marin is a vegetarian.”
She eats cats.

TTIUWP.
Dont know much about her, but I am betting she was a useless PM.
Change one letter...
This is what happens when an unserious nation hires a young woman of breeding age to be its leader. She wants to dance and party.
Yep.
