– Ida was not forced to do this – VG

– It could not even occur to me, in my wildest imagination, that there should be reactions to it. It should also be said that it is not a question of many reactions, but that they come from a gang that shouts loudly, Mads Hansen writes in a text message to VG.

On Wednesday, VGTV published a feature from “Spårtsklubben” where it appears that Mads Hansen, Erik Follestad, Jon Martin Henriksen for half a year has fooled colleague Ida Fladen and forces her to record and release a song they have written.

Fladen refuses for a long time to record the song “Puppastemning”, and her colleagues give her alcohol to make her continue.

It has caused more people to react. Among other things, media researcher Tellef Raabe writes the following on twitter:

“If you see this and think it’s funny, you have to go within yourself. Congratulations Mads Hansen, you appear as Norway’s least empathetic man »

To Media24, who first mentioned the Twitter message, Raabe says he does not want to elaborate on the reaction.

In a debate post in Medier24 Pastor Erik Andreassen writes that this “is a hefty illustration of what peer pressure and lack of consent look like”.

– Ida was not forced to do this. Had she not wanted this song to be released, or of the video not to have been published, it obviously would not have been, Hansen writes, and continues.

Hansen says that Fladen did not know about the joke until Friday, but that she subsequently approved the publication of the feature and the song.

– Ida made the decision in peace, on a two-hand basis with the producer, Hansen writes and continues:

– We in Spårtsklubben are four good friends, who know where each other’s boundaries go, and what is okay and not okay to joke with. Sometimes we push each other, such as when Ida tricked Folle and me into a snake jungle.

– Sometimes things have also been said and done that someone has not been comfortable with, and did not want to publish, and then it has of course been respected.

VG has tried to get in touch with Ida Fladen.

Fladen has shared the feature on his own Instagram, while Erik Follestad has defended the feature Twitter:

“Now people have to breathe. This is a feature of an entertainment program. You are being violated on behalf of Ida, who has not been violated herself. She shares the feature on her own Instagram » he writes.
