On Tuesday, Culture and Equality Minister Lubna Jaffery (Ap) was named this year’s “fag hag” during the Skeiv Preik event at Salt in Oslo. The term is often used for women who like to hang out with gay men. – I am very appreciative of being named this year’s fag hag, during Oslo Pride, the high patron of queers. This is a great honour, says Jaffery. As a thank you, she gave a little extra of herself. Jaffery during Bergen pride at the beginning of June. Photo: Paul S. Amundsen / NTB During the presentation, she pulled up her top and showed her boobs, and that with full cheers from the hall. – Both as Minister for Culture and Equality and now the high patron of queers, I am concerned that queers should feel safe and free, this was a small contribution. Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre (Ap) is positive about the pupa stunt. – Lubna is a confident, free and wonderful person who is cordially present at cultural events all over the country. She was also in Oslo yesterday, and I think that’s perfectly fine. Jonas Gahr Støre during last year’s Pride celebration in Oslo.

She congratulates her on the new title. – This was just fun. Published 26.06.2024, at 16.02
