Queen Silvia of Sweden appeared in a tribute episode of the TV4 program What a Life!, dedicated to artist Christer Lindarw. The show, recorded at the Oscarsteatern, featured the Queen expressing her appreciation for Lindarw’s long-standing career with the drag show group After Dark. On stage, the Queen also presented a rose — a gesture that echoed a moment from 1977 when Lindarw had presented a rose to her from the same stage.
Christer Lindarw is a Swedish fashion designer, and leader of the drag group After Dark. In 2017, Lindarw performed a surprise finale number, impersonating Queen Silvia, during the annual televised concert celebrating Crown Princess Victoria’s 40th birthday. For the tribute event, Queen Silvia wore the Napoleonic Cut Steel Tiara.
ReplyDeleteA tribute from one queen to another, I have always admired Queen Silivia from afar and I am now even more impressed. She looks so lovely, a wonderful lady!!!!
She’s clearly a good sport. Wearing the same dress from 1977 makes it even more memorable. (V.M.)
ReplyDeleteQueen Silvia is a beautiful woman with a wonderful heart and sense of humour. Her family must be so proud of her.
ReplyDeleteWhat a hoot, she looks as lovely today as she did then. The dress is very pretty and cute earrings.
ReplyDeleteThe dress is a good Swedish color!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. It seems to me I saw these images already a while ago. Before she had the surgery on her feet. Maybe it has been emitted on TV during the weekend but it took place life in the theater earlier.
ReplyDeleteChrister Lindarw har alltid härmat henne snällt och trevligt, och därför har drottning Silvia bjudit honom till Sollidens slott i Borgholm vid ett flertalet tillfällen!
ReplyDeleteJa,är inte Christer och Silvia drottningar på var sitt sätt.
DeleteSwedens Silvia is a fairytale-queen!
ReplyDeleteLa reine est merveilleuse dans cette robe dont le jaune est lumineux !
ReplyDeleteWearing this gown from 1977 she looks sensational.
ReplyDeleteQ Silvia look great. I am not for yellow that much, but she can pull it off.

Ho visto il video di questo momento, Silvia una bella regina che si prende la scena in maniera dolce e delicata e con un bel sorriso.
ReplyDeleteChrister Lindarw uppträdde på kronprinsessans födelsedag i Borgholm som hennes mamma drottning Silvia, alla i publiken jublade och han fick stående ovationer av kungafamiljen. Örjan
ReplyDeleteA Queen that comes to a talkshow, Sweden is a great country!
ReplyDeleteThis is a rare exception for this artist who has impersonated her many times during decades. It's kind of wholesome that it's a dragqueen nonetheless who gets that honor, "from a queen to another queen" as her majesty said.
