TOEING THE LINE

Nikoline Nielsen is a youth member of the right-wing Danish People’s Party.

“You can have your own culture at home,” she says. “But when you go out in society, you need to be part of the group, learn to speak Danish. If you want to have a job, you need to take that headscarf off.”

​

However, it is not Nikoline’s Danish People’s Party membership that made her famous, it was a bet she made with a friend claiming she could become an overnight online sensation. She now has over 30,000 fans on Facebook and a staggering 4 million views on YouTube. With a brash exterior and outspoken beliefs, she is allegedly the most-viewed Dane within Denmark. But is this really who she is?
