When Crown Princess made her surprise visit to the tones of ABBAs Dancing Queen at the end of the Gala to hand out the ”Gay, Bi, Trans of The Year”-award the audience at first did not really belive it to be true. Then the cheers never stopped! The news about the Crown Princess taking part in the GayGala-award-event spread fast over the world!
The prize was handed out to author Jonas Gardell for his trilogy and TV-serie ”Never Dry Tears Without Gloves” about the AIDS crisis within the Gay Community
in the 80th.
