A journalist and blogger named Otar Kushanashvili authored a work titled “What?!” In a video by Stas Kostyushkin called “The Queen,” Kushanashvili criticized the public image of Elena Blinovskaya.
The clip is described as pulsating with romance and sensuality, with Blinovskaya presenting herself as a figure of extraordinary beauty. In the narration, she is portrayed as a person who confidently embraces life, while her more controversial moments are framed as missteps within a dramatic public arc. The commentator pointed to this contrast between Blinovskaya’s present conduct and the public persona she once cultivated, joking that the artist might even entice a life-sized prop to occupy a central role in the music video.
There was a provocative line of satire about the temptation of quick gain, with a quip about choosing a different path if someone seeks a certain sum of money, followed by a jab about the consequences of deception. The humor underscored a perceived tension between image and reality in the narrative around the artist.
On a notable date, Blinovskaya was detained at the border with Belarus while traveling in a rented vehicle. Observers noted a tax liability reported for the years 2019 through 2021, and Blinovskaya reportedly acknowledged having some financial obligations. At the time of reporting, she was placed under house arrest as the case progressed. [citation: investigative reports and public records summarized in contemporary media coverage]
In related commentary, a prominent media personality—Tina Kandelaki—had previously advised entertainers to address taxes in a timely manner, a sentiment echoed by commentators observing Blinovskaya’s legal situation. [citation: public-facing statements and contemporaneous media discussions]
