Benjamin and Abreu revealed their professions to American tourists: 'Totally mega-Trump'

Finnish singer Benjamin Peltosen and his partner Joni Kujansuu share a light-hearted encounter with American tourists while discussing their professions during a barbecue.

In a recent episode of the show 'Yökylässä Veitola', Finnish singer Benjamin Peltosen and his husband Joni Kujansuu hosted Maria Veitola at their home in Espoo. Accompanying them were Benjamin's good friend, singer Anna Abreu, and her partner Lauri Heiskari. The gathering featured a casual barbecue where the group shared laughs and memories of their travels abroad, particularly an encounter with American tourists that highlighted cultural differences regarding fame and personal identities.

During their trip, Benjamin and Anna Abreu fondly reminisced about a time when they met a group of American women by the pool. The American ladies turned out to be quite devout, which led to an amusing discussion, with Benjamin jokingly referring to the women as 'totally mega-Trump,' alluding to their strong personalities and perhaps their political leanings. This light-hearted exchange illuminated the contrasts between their public personas and the Americans' expectations, as the women inquired about their professions.

Benjamin openly declared himself a singer, which intrigued the tourists. As they looked up his music on Spotify, the first songs they discovered were titled provocatively, such as 'Gay' and 'Hoida mut' ('Take Care of Me'), leaving the American tourists quite curious. This incident not only provided a funny anecdote about international social interactions but also reflected on the differences in how celebrities are perceived across cultures, as well as the playful yet sometimes confusing exchanges that can arise when worlds collide.
