Singer Igor Nadzhiev, “Superstar! Return”, told how People’s Artist of the USSR Alla Pugacheva once insulted People’s Artist of Russia Alexander Gradsky (1949-2021). Nadzhieva nail aif.ru.
Recall that in January 2000, at the age of 100, the queen of romance, People’s Artist of Russia Isabella Yurieva, passed away. In 2000, Yurieva became the laureate of the Presidential Prize of the Russian Federation, but she did not manage to receive the award during her lifetime.
According to Nadzhiev, the fate of the prize was decided at a roundtable of cultural figures. Gradsky offered to build a monument with this money, and Pugacheva asked if everyone would be given a prize in this way.
“Sasha Gradsky answered very well: “Alla, are you taking this money out of your pocket?” It completely offended him as a person. He sang the Russian legend of love throughout the war – and you want to remove the monument from his grave…”, he recalls.
Nadzhiev claims that Gradsky did not speak to Pugacheva after that for two years, but later resumed relations.
“This incident is another brushstroke in the portrait of Alla Borisovna… This is despite the fact that Sasha Gradsky treated Alla Borisovna very warmly,” the artist said.
After the start of a special military operation in Ukraine, Pugacheva left Russia with her husband Maxim Galkin (known in the Russian Federation as a foreign agent) and children, leaving Russia for Israel.
On the eve of Oscar Kuchera commented Pugacheva’s words about “slaves and serfs.”
Gradsky’s old friend answered On the attack of Verka Serduchka.
