NationalityNorway

Kari Angelique Jaquesson (born 12 April 1962) is a Norwegian conspiracy theorist,[1] author, fitness consultant and former television personality. She writes for the conspiracy theorist website Steigan.no and has been widely criticized for promoting climate change denial, COVID-19 misinformation, Russian propaganda, Antisemitism and transphobia.[2][3] A 2021 survey by YouGov found that the public figures viewed most negatively by Norwegians were Donald Trump, Kari Jaquesson and Vladimir Putin.[4]

Fitness and television career

Kari Jaquesson is an aerobics instructor and became widely known in Norway in the 1990s for hosting a daytime workout program on TV2. She has also written books about fitness. She was named a Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations Population Fund in 2000 to raise awareness about fitness and public health.[5]

Views

From the 2010s Jaquesson has become known for promoting a number of conspiracy theories, including climate change denial, COVID-19 misinformation and Russian propaganda related to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.[1]

Jews and Israel

In 2015 Jaquesson implied that Israel supported ISIS, and was criticized by the Norwegian Humanist Association and other critics of promoting Antisemitic conspiracy theories.[6][7][8]

Syria

Jaquesson is a long-time supporter of Bashar al-Assad.[9] John Færseth argued that Jaquesson painted a picture of "a grand, international conspiracy against a popular Assad regime."[10]

Views on gender

Jaquesson is a self-described TERF and has said that "a man cannot become a woman."[11] She is active in the Women's Declaration International anti-transgender group. She has also been active in the radical feminist Feminist Group Ottar and has often caused controversy as a representative of that group; in 2016, she told a 17-year girl to "suck dick ten times a day". The controversy regarded the legalization of prostitution, and the sucking was proposed to picture the unpleasant daily life of a prostitute.[12]

COVID-19 misinformation

From 2020 Jaquesson has actively promoted COVID-19 misinformation. She claimed there was no pandemic and ridiculed the public health measures, such as the use of masks.[13][14]

Russia

Jaquesson supports the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. She is a contributor to and a co-owner of the website Steigan.no that promotes Russian propaganda.[15]
