"I have never tried drugs or anything else besides alcohol. At a press conference on Thursday, she said, "I've danced, sung, partied, and done other things that were all legal."

Videos that were apparently taken from a private Instagram account depicted Finland's leader gyrating her hips and dancing with much verve with her pals. — Videos that were apparently taken from a private Instagram account depicted Finland’s leader gyrating her hips and dancing with much verve with her pals.

The recordings, which are said to have come from a private Instagram account, show Marin and a group of friends, including Finnish musicians, TV stars, and politicians, dancing and singing.

In what looks like a private apartment, the beautiful prime minister of Finland was seen in a black tank top and white pants shaking her hips, pumping her fists enthusiastically, and making funny faces with her friends for the camera.

After the bombshell story came out, Mikko Karna, a Finnish member of parliament from Marin's coalition partner the Center Party, tweeted that Marin should take a drug test on his own and make the results public.

“The people are also allowed to expect this from their prime minister,” he wrote.

During the press conference Thursday, Marin insisted that she only drank alcohol — but not to excess — and partied “in a boisterous way.”

“I haven’t used any drugs, so it’s not a problem to take a drug test, but I also think it’s quite special that something like this is required,” she told reporters, adding that she has “nothing to conceal or hide.”

The 36-year-old European leader insisted that her actions were completely legal. Marin also said she knew she was being filmed at the social event a couple of weeks ago, but expected the recordings to remain private.

Marin, 36, said the party took place a couple of weeks private at two private residences, with some 20 guests in attendance. — Marin, 36, said the party took place a couple of weeks ago at two private residences, with some 20 guests in attendance.

“It feels bad that they have been published,” she lamented.

Marin also said that the wild footage was shot at parties with about 20 people at two different apartments.

Alma, a Finnish singer, Petri Nygard, a rapper, Tinni Wikstrom, a TV host, and MPs from Marin's Social Democratic party were all there.

Earlier this week, the German publication Bild hailed Marin as “the coolest prime minister in the world.”

Back in December, Marin was forced to apologize for going to a club after coming into contact with someone who had tested positive for COVID.

Finnish Prime Minister Sanna Marin is facing calls to take a drug test after she was captured in leaked cellphone videos dancing and partying.

Marin's love of parties has gotten her into trouble before, so this is not the first time.

Back in December 2021, she had to say she was sorry for spending the night at a nightclub where she was close to someone who had COVID.

Marin said she missed a text message telling her to be alone because she left her work phone at home. As prime minister, she was supposed to have the phone with her at all times.

“I am very sorry for not understanding that I needed to do that,” Marin said at the time as part of her mea culpa.
