A global pop icon named Alla Pugacheva recently moved away from a rural residence in Gryazi and headed toward St. Petersburg. The sequence of events, as reported by a Telegram channel, shows the artist leaving her Gryazi estate in the morning and driving to the northern outskirts before making a quick return and later being picked up again for the journey to the city of Saint Petersburg. The channel notes that the private driver exited the Gryazi castle at 08:23, traveling in a Rolls-Royce and moving toward the area near Zvenigorod. After spending about an hour away, the driver returned to the residence and collected the Diva approximately an hour later. Shortly afterward, the vehicle carrying Pugacheva arrived in the capital region and then continued toward Petersburg.
Earlier, Elena Chuprakova, who serves as Pugacheva’s director, confirmed that the artist arrived in Russia on the evening of November 2. At that time, the artist’s assistant did not provide details on how long she would remain in the country or the purpose of the visit.
Meanwhile, members of the public advocacy group People’s Call announced plans to detain the singer for questioning over possible funding of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. They also urged authorities to consider administrative action for statements circulated online in which Pugacheva referred to Russians as serfs and slaves. The group’s position reflects ongoing debates about accountability for public remarks made by prominent cultural figures.
Speculation continues about whether Pugacheva will be allowed to perform in Russia again, given the public and political reactions surrounding her movements and statements. A number of observers suggest that the final decision on performances will depend on broader political and cultural considerations, as well as compliance with local regulations and expectations for public figures returning to the stage.
