Singer Danko: “They would rather dig up a corpse from a grave than invite me to a concert”

“I spend my time in seclusion”

Alexander Fadeev (Danko) was very popular at one time, especially among teenagers, but quickly went into circulation. Nevertheless, the artist continues his active concert activities. The singer spoke about family joys and touring obstacles in an interview on the day of his anniversary.

Singer Danko, who celebrated his 55th birthday today, got married this year and is already expecting a son. After numerous affairs, the performer of the hit “My Baby” again found family happiness with the attractive brunette Masha Siluyanova. The performer’s 35-year-old girlfriend is a DJ and has a child from a previous relationship. Together with the author of the hit “Moscow Night” they settled in Crimea.

“I celebrated my 55th birthday surrounded by my mother and young wife in my home in Yalta,” Alexander Fadeev told MK. – I spend my time in seclusion, I’m tired of all these half-naked parties in the capital. From the outside they look ridiculous. I live in Crimea, I recently got married here and in the year of my family I will have a son.

I regularly go on tour, Moscow is now a transit point for me. The public suddenly remembered the artists of the 90s – people are returning to their roots. People come to my concerts and everyone has a blast. Since 2017, I have performed in Donetsk many times. I have always loved and still love this city. My aunt was born here, my grandmother studied at the institute. Donetsk has always pleased us with its beauty.

– For concerts in Donetsk and living in Crimea, you were blacklisted in Ukraine. After the scandalous entry ban into Moldova, what obstacles did you encounter?

– I help soldiers at the front, I have medals. Oddly enough, there are problems with performances in Russia too. There is some kind of discrimination from the opposite. Many concert organizers and friends of Kirkorov-Pugacheva would rather dig up some corpse from a grave or invite someone from the “Mask” show than invite me to a concert. But these are internal affairs and they are ruled by the same people who promoted Zemfira (recognized as a foreign agent – “MK”) and others like them.

Among the new ones, he recorded a new song “Thanks” with the lead singer of the Strelki group Yulia Beretta. The video for it came out just yesterday.

BLITZ:

The last time I was ashamed was when… I heard on all channels about some entries and entries through the wrong door.

I was greatly influenced… my colleague at the Bolshoi Theater Alexander Korepanov.

I wouldn’t want my loved ones to know that as a child I… smoked I smoked for many years, but I quit smoking 10 years ago.

The first time life disappointed me was when… I went to the Bolshoi Theater to see a production by the new artistic director from Milan (Mahar Vaziev). He is a violator of Russian culture, I don’t even want to remember him.

If I were not myself, I would certainly become… by you or them (laughs). How can you not be yourself? Impossible!

People are mistaken when they say… beauty will save the world. Kindness will save peace and love.

They didn’t understand my joke when… when I joked in a company of people 20 years younger than me.

I’m still upset about… that I am a very trusting person.

I can’t do without… meat is my favorite food, I love eating meat.

I was absolutely happy that day… divorced for the first time.

The greatest difficulty I have had to overcome in life is… jump into water from a 10-meter height.

It might make me blush… anyone, if he reveals my tricks.

I would pay a lot to see… the far side of the Moon.

If I had two tickets to heaven, I would… lived there on two shelves.
