The artist is “cancelled” in Russian show business this year. The Evening Urgant program has not been published since the end of February. Ivan was not invited to play in the movie “Yolki-9”. And this week it was revealed that for the first time in 15 years he will not be able to hold the Golden Gramophone music award. Dmitry Nagiyev stood by his side most often, but he will not be on the stage this time either.
Urgant commented on the situation. The forty-four-year-old TV presenter spoke about her in a funny way. However, he got the location of the ceremony wrong.
“Oh, the organizers,” Ivan complained. “Another mystery for this year, isn’t it too much?” I’m starting to wonder if someone let me down. Am I planning to suddenly appear on the Kremlin scene? I’m planning. Now I choose which performer to jump out from under the skirt at the most unexpected moment. I don’t know yet, but I think it will be a great surprise for all the viewers, for the presenters, for me and for my family.”
The award ceremony will not actually take place in the Kremlin this time, but in the VTB Arena on December 10. The Russian media group announced that the hosts of the holiday will be Ekaterina Skulkina and Vadim Galygin. Both are former KVN workers. For a long time, the actress appeared in the show Comedy Woman. And the native of the Belarusian city of Borisov recently appeared as the presenter of the program Fantastic on Channel One.
The grandson of actress Nina Urgantová assured that the organizers of the award did not offend him. “I don’t know such a word: “revenge”. At the same time, I ask you not to juggle the facts: Ekaterina Skulkina is replacing me. And Vadim Galygin can replace whoever he wants, “the showman told NSN.
Recently, Ivan Urgant mocked the creator of the movie “Yolki-9”. “The final nail has been hammered into the coffin of my great acting career,” he said wryly.
In an exclusive interview with VOICE, Maria Shukshina assured that she treated Ivan very well. According to the actress and TV presenter, however, Urgant turned out to be a symbol of the “fifth column”. The daughter of the writer Vasily Shukshin urged him not to return the showman to the air of Channel One.
