The former presenter of Channel One is undertaking a major tour of American cities. It will last exactly one month – and should end on April 3. Galkin forbids the audience to film themselves. And yet, a video of his concert in Cleveland hit the web today.
Maxim decided to mock the Russian folk artist, who had previously often visited his castle in the village of Gryaz near Moscow. The showman offered to send Philip Kirkorov to the war zone.
“Angelina Vovk said that she is ready to go to the front together with Khryusha and Stepasha,” Galkin told the Americans. “Though if I were her, I’d take Filya. It seems to me that if Philip appears in front in see-through pantyhose, a truce is guaranteed for a few days.
At the same time, Maxim widened his eyes so that no one would doubt who he was talking about.
It is noteworthy that Kirkorov defended Alla Pugacheva and her current husband last spring after Margarita Simonyan called the humorist in a talk show a representative of sexual minorities who married an “old woman” to get rich. “You held a candle to publicly defame a man and his family?! How should Ally and Maxim’s children view you? – Then the performer of the hit “Mood Color Blue” turned to her. After that, Philip refused to emigrate. In addition, he visits hospitals where he interacts with military personnel.
At the concert in Cleveland, the parodist also recalled the rock bands that suspended their tour of Russia last year. “I’m offended that such worthy artists as DDT, Time Machine, Aquarium are banned. And the worst thing is that these are groups that were banned 30 years ago, “said Maxim.
However, in 1993, all these groups were allowed in Russia. They successfully completed the tour. Galkin also compared his fate with that of a great singer.
“I dug even deeper – and found that Fyodor Ivanovich Chaliapin was also canceled 100 years ago,” noted the comedian. – In 1922 he left the Russian People’s Republic and traveled around the world. When it became clear that he donated the collection from one of the concerts to the children of emigrants, he was accused of sponsoring the White Guards and stripped of the title of People’s Artist of the Republic. And then the creative people who remained in the country cursed him.”
Maxim quoted a poem belonging to Vladimir Mayakovsky:
with muffled applause olyapan?
I’ll be the first to shout
People’s Artist of the Republic!
“Imagine – nothing has changed in 100 years. It’s a shame,” assured Galkin.
