Finland Prime Minister Marin Sanna parties wildly with celebrity friends
Finland's glamorous Prime Minister Sanna Marin has denied using drugs and said she has nothing to hide after a video emerged of her partying wildly with celebrity friends.

The 36-year-old world leader was in high spirits in the video, which appears to take place in a private apartment, as the group cavorts and dances for a mobile phone camera.

In light of the raucous scenes, Finnish MP Mikko Kärnä, from Marin's coalition partner Centre Party, took to Twitter to urge her to take a voluntary drugs test.
'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 said to reporters at Kuopio's Rissala airport.

'I didn't see any evidence that anything was used anywhere,' she added.

Earlier this morning, she defended her behaviour in the video to reporters, saying 'I have danced, sung, celebrated, done legal things.' She added that she had not been drinking heavily.

She also hit out the person who leaked the videos, which she said were from a couple of weeks ago.
'I trusted that since the videos are private and published at a private event, they would not be published,' Marin said. 'It feels bad that they have been published.'

When asked if the video was a matter for the police to investigate, Marin said that she still didn't know if anything illegal had happened and that it would 'hardly be a police matter.'

Giving more details on the wild night, Marin said that the evening had been spent in two separate flats, with about twenty people. They also went to two bars.

The leaked video was taken from the Instagram stories of a private account and appears to show Finland's prime minister and her group of Finnish celebrity friends completely unguarded.

Among the public figures seen in the video are Finnish singer Alma and her sister Anna, rapper Petri Nygard, TV host Tinni Wikstrom, photographer and influencer Janita Autio, radio host Karoliina Tuominen, as well as MPs from her own Social Democratic party.
