Ballerina Anastasia Volochkova shared her admiration for singer Sergei Lazarev in a candid chat on the Telegram channel ZHARA MAG. In the discussion, she openly expressed how Lazarev stands out among Russian show business icons and noted her appreciation for his artistry.
During the exchange, readers asked Volochkova to casually pose for photographs with notable figures from the domestic entertainment scene. The dancer connected with colleagues Chebotina and Lazarev, joking that this moment would mark her path to a second, perhaps larger, photo opportunity with the star.
“Seryoga, I adore you,” she told the platform. “If you won’t stand beside me for a photo, at least I will take one with you,” the dancer quipped, conveying her warmth and respect for the artist.
Volochkova emphasized her deep admiration and esteem for Lazarev. She highlighted her enjoyment of his creative work and his music, describing him as among the very best in the industry.
ZHARA MAG reporters pressed her on which tall figure in the celebrity world she might consider performing a duet with. She did not hesitate to name Lazarev as a potential collaborator, stating that the idea of a joint track could truly captivate audiences. The dancer noted that the possibility was intriguing because it would bring a fresh, unexpected musical partnership to fans.
“Let’s record a remarkable duet,” she proposed. “This is an opportunity that brings novelty and excitement to both artists and listeners.” The notion underscored her interest in creative experiments and cross-genre collaborations within the national music scene.
On the New Year’s plan front, Volochkova singled Lazarev out as someone she would choose to spend the holidays with, should such a chance arise. When asked who, among the aforementioned singers, she would pay for vocal lessons, she reflected that none needed instruction from peers at this point. She explained that these artists were already seasoned professionals who had earned their place in the spotlight through years of dedication and performance.
Earlier, Lazarev denied a momentary photo together with Volochkova on the carpet of the Golden Gramophone awards ceremony in November, a clarification that kept the focus on mutual respect and professional boundaries between the performers.
