Daniel Chistov, a former participant of the reality show “Dom-2,” reportedly breached a parking lot barrier at a residential complex in the Moscow region. The disclosure comes via a Telegram channel identified as Mash.
During a discussion with Mash representatives, Chistov explained that he and his wife, Nadezhda Ermakova, who also previously appeared on Dom-2, were attempting to reach their home when a license-plate recognition camera failed to function.
Chistov said security at the checkpoint refused them entry, prompting him to exit the vehicle and raise the barrier rather than attempt to breach the gate aggressively. He indicated a willingness to address the incident under the relevant provisions of the Criminal Code, supported by CCTV footage that he claimed would back his version of events.
Eyewitnesses later claimed that the barrier was, indeed, breached.
Meanwhile, TV presenter Andrei Malakhov addressed accusations that linked him to a separate controversy, namely claims that he blocked actor Mikhail Mamaev from appearing on the program “Hello Andrey” while wearing a hat featuring the Russian flag.
In a related note, public figure Yulia Savicheva previously voiced support for Sasha Petrov amid criticism of his marriage.
These events have sparked discussions online about gatekeeping and the consequences of confrontations at security checkpoints, highlighting how media coverage can amplify seemingly minor incidents into broader narratives. The chain of reports underscores the ongoing public fascination with reality TV personalities and how their actions outside studio settings can quickly become focal points for scrutiny and debate.
