In a candid exchange with socialbites.ca, Anastasia Volochkova spoke about actress Yana Poplavskaya, suggesting that Poplavskaya quietly harbor jealousy and even proposing that the ballerina consider seeking medical counsel. Volochkova emphasized that she had no knowledge of the said aunt, yet invited her to attend the show she had crafted, describing it as a new, spectacular production.
Volochkova urged the unnamed aunt to relay a clear message: she does not know her and extends her sincere greetings, while inviting her to attend the performance. The dancer described her latest production as a grand, illustrious spectacle and offered to share photos and videos that demonstrate the opinions of others. She challenged the aunt to consider whether a person who believes others have serious problems could attend and fill such large venues with a show of this scale. She dismissed envy as a force without boundaries and asserted that this particular aunt would not attend the event in her lifetime. The sentiment was stark: life beyond the stage and the ballet hall allows her the liberty to act as she pleases, including how she spends time in her mansion.—
On February 7, Yana Poplavskaya explained on RTVI why she felt ashamed of Nikita Dzhigurda and also spoke about her friend Anastasia Volochkova. The actress described ongoing exposure of the individual in question in ways she deemed inappropriate, arguing that no one considers the possibility that this person might struggle with alcoholism and should be evaluated by a physician.
Poplavskaya had previously voiced a similar concern. In October 2023, she stated that Volochkova needed narcological evaluation and urgent psychiatric care.
There was a separate moment described where Volochkova, in a scene tied to recognition by officials in the figure skating world, was shown alongside medals attributed to skater Valieva, marking a public event connected to her career and public appearances.
