Producer Lityagin told how long oxygen was cut off to the participants of the “naked” party

The consequences of participation in the “naked party” continue to affect the lives of the stars who took part in this shameful performance. Concerts were canceled for Kirkorov, who left Russia altogether and flew to America. Lolita has no performances either. Among the participants in the famous music award, which will soon be held in Moscow, the names of stars are also not included. The Naked Party is being discussed even outside the country. The founder and producer of the Mirage group, Andrei Lityagin, who has lived in Europe for many years, monitors the situation in Russian show business and understands what is happening to our artists now. He shared with Moskovsky Komsomolets about why what happened happened, and what it could now threaten for some representatives of our stage.

— Andrey, the other day the concerts of some of our stars were canceled again. In your opinion, for how long did they “cut off the oxygen” to Kirkorov, Lolita and others after this party?

“The situation itself implies the temporary nature of this measure. But I believe that the issue here is much broader. The point is not simply to “cut off the oxygen.” If artists break the law, then they and others like them should not appear anywhere at all. The courts of the Russian Federation, for example, made decisions that recognized the videos of Baskov and Lazarev as LGBT propaganda (recognized as an extremist organization in the Russian Federation). And in this regard, I have a question: does anyone really care about the decisions of the courts? (videos can still be found on the Internet – author’s note) If you are struggling with something, then you have to fight to the end. Serious oversight is needed here if you really want to cleanse the culture of this amateur activity, because I can’t call them anything else.

— What would you advise the party participants to do in this case? How to atone?

— I have no right to advise other artists and producers what to do and how to atone for their guilt. This is all, in my opinion, cheating; they don’t care about public opinion. Many have already had a wonderful trip and performed in Dubai several times. And Dubai is a gathering place for relocants. So our stars didn’t lose anything in money, they got more money from above.

But, in my opinion, these are the last pathetic attempts to spur fading interest in oneself. I am sure that they will travel to other relocant collection points, not only Dubai, and they will be well paid there too. I think that these people made good money, they can easily leave Russia and not return, open some kind of business. Their means and capabilities are quite possible. Another thing is that there is a question of personal vanity here. None of them can sing English songs. That is, they are locked inside the space where songs are performed in Russian. This makes them hostage to the situation. Where should they develop? They cannot conquer the world, but they can travel here and there.

— Do you know the organizer of the “naked” party?

– No, I don’t know. All these bloggers probably have their own crowd. As for the party, purely aesthetically it would not attract me as a man. I would go to a normal strip club with more pleasure.

— Do you think the rapper Vacio himself decided to come in socks or did someone put him up to it?

– I don’t even know who this is. There was probably an attitude: let’s do something to get people talking about us, a normal production move that didn’t work well. Sobchak turned out to be the most cunning of all and came in a dress.

— Andrey, why do you think and who needed to hold such an event?

— The idea is not new: to shock society. All sorts of socialites and socialites are a group of people who are closed in their own space and are not needed in the world, they are not in demand with all the insanity that they create. They are forced to jump in the jar in which they are sitting, and they definitely need performance, otherwise the meaning of their existence is lost. One of the basic factors that determines false human vanity and pride is that you definitely need to do something. The more obscene it is, the more it irritates society, the more fun the organizers will have… Someone I remember nailed his genitals to Red Square – this is all from the same episode. The underlying reason is lack of talent. The lack of talent is replaced by undressing. I am not a supporter of conspiracy theories. I think that the aunties are already completely bored in life and have nothing to do, there is no real creativity, that’s why they organized this event.

— How do you personally feel about this story?

“All this makes me feel disgusted.” I feel sorry for these people; they could not realize themselves in life. This does not apply, however, to Kirkorov. And others make a pitiful impression.
