Producer Yana Rudkovskaya spoke in defense of the singer Glyukoza (Glyuk’oZa, Natalya Chistyakova-Ionova) during a discussion with 5-tv.ru, arguing that Maxim Fadeev should not confiscate the artist’s music following the scandal at a Krasnoyarsk concert.
Glyukoza attributed the unsettling conduct at the Krasnoyarsk show to an unusual bodily reaction triggered by tranquilizers she had taken after the passing of her grandmother, Lydia. Rudkovskaya noted that she had faced a similar situation herself at one point in her life.
“We are all human, and nothing human is foreign to us,” she emphasized.
According to the star, Fadeev should not seize Glyukoza’s songs in response to the incident.
“Maxim, I deeply value you as a producer, as a musician, and as a person. Taking away an artist’s music is equivalent to taking away their soul and heart,” Rudkovskaya stated.
On July 20, Glyukoza gave a concert in Krasnoyarsk. Journalists for Mash, quoting eyewitnesses, reported that the performance nearly spiraled out of control. The pop singer appeared to miss notes and engaged in behavior that drew attention for being provocative on stage.
On July 21, Fadeev announced plans to restrict Glyukoza’s use of a creative pseudonym, potentially pursuing legal action through the courts to enforce the ban.
Earlier, Rudkovskaya had indicated she would travel to Galich to avoid undergoing cosmetic surgery, sharing an openness about personal choices and professional pressures.
