Bindefeld educated himself to be a hairdresser; he became popular and started doing hair for celebrities in Stockholm.[2] He organized his first event in 1987, and since then Bindefeld has evolved from creator and party organiser to communications strategist.[2]

He played himself in the films Adam & Eva (1997) and Livet är en schlager (2000).

Controversies[]

In connection with his 60th birthday in 2019, Bindefeld held a week-long birthday party in Tel Aviv, Israel, where he invited several Swedish celebrities, leading politicians and others whom he described as his friends. Among those who accepted the invitation were Ulf Kristersson (leader of the Moderate Party), Ebba Busch Thor (leader of the Christian Democrats) and Nyamko Sabuni (leader of the Liberals), who were strongly criticised by political commentators and others for accepting the invitation. Critics held the view that they should have stayed and worked in the Riksdag, as it was in the middle of budget time.[6][7]

It was reported that several prosecutors would investigate if there had been any bribery involved.[8] Bindefeld responded by saying: "I don't need to comment it, reflect over it or care about it. I'm only celebrating my birthday".[9]
