Yesterday we talked about the incident on the popular Channel One show: a strict jury took up arms against 8-year-old Vika Starikova, who, in their opinion, simply had no right to sing such an adult Zemfira song. The child had to hear about himself such that there was no end to the tears. Were Vladimir Pozner, Renata Litvinova and Sergei Yursky right? We continue the discussion. A girl comes out. She's eight years old. Came from Nizhny Tagil. And sings "Live in your head" by Zemfira.
Sings unevenly.
There are different girls in the world: some go out, hoot and work like a German machine, others shake, bite their nails, but forget about everything on stage, others have fun, make fun and perceive everything as a game, the fourth are not sure of themselves. Most of them are. Girl Victoria is one of them.
The baby makes a mistake, then accelerates and gives out a pretty good cover on the whole. Mine. With blots, but honest and sometimes really talented.

And then they start to trample on it.
Jura is the first to get up.
I would like you to write this song, - the actor turned to the girl, referring to Zemfira's song, written by her at the age of 35. - I feel originality in performance. This is not imitation. But, bowing to you, I'm afraid that on the next round you will be required to sing another song. Or compose yourself, which you did not present today. No need to hurry. So you happened on the big stage. Began! And don't let it be running. Let it be normal growth.
And presses the red button - home.
The girl starts crying.
Victoria Starikova Live in your head. Moment of glory. Fragment of the issue dated February 25, 2017.
Renata Litvinova continues, which, of course, was given large during Zemfira's song. She was hurt that the girl:
a) does not know Zemfira's songs;
b) does not understand what the song is about;
c) parents persuaded to the forbidden reception.
What is forbidden? Parents, remembering the friendship of Zemfira and Renata, decided to convince the child to sing exactly this in order to pity Litvinova?

Finished off by Vladimir Pozner, who believes that it is unacceptable to release a mediocre child for slaughter, just to amuse parental vanity.
The only adequate was Svetlakov, who tried to stop the madness and save the child.
I have watched and rewatched this video. And he could not understand: how can one be such callous, wooden and heartless idols? Why were they put there at all? Yursky was born in 1935, he knows neither the songs of Zemfira, nor "Spleen", nor the rappers who come to the project. Why put him in an awkward position?
By what professional criteria was the little one killed? Did the director Litvinova or the TV presenter Pozner hear the marriage in the upper register or did they understand that the girl could not keep the tessitura? People who had previously gladly let professional acrobats, professional tightrope walkers, a professional magician, professional dancers, professional gymnasts into the project. For what? Who is interested in watching them? Are we in the Zapashny circus at the casting?
Yes, and how is this even possible in principle: the child is crying, and he is measuredly rolled into the asphalt with passion. What are you, comrades? This is a show. Let everything be imperfect. She tried, she hit almost everything, accompanied herself, followed her hands. Which makes the task twice as difficult.

Vladimir Vladimirovich Pozner and Sergey Yuryevich Yursky are so fond of recalling censorship and artistic councils that killed hosts of talents in the USSR.
When geeks take the stage, it is already clear that they are great, Posner explained.
Is it okay that Irina Arkhipova (a great opera singer. - Ed.) came to the conservatory at the age of 23? Montgomery (jazz guitarist. - Ed.) started playing the guitar at 20. Khachaturian studied physics and only heard about music until the age of 19.
Eight year old man. Eight. At this age, nothing can be understood yet - it happened, it didn’t happen. An eared miracle with a scythe. She sang unevenly, but sincerely, quite cleanly on the choruses, in an original way, she didn’t copy, she put all her little heart into it.
As a result, the child was forced to toss a coin (!!!) to determine whether it stays on or not, because two judges are for, two are against. Medieval savagery and humiliation. It would be better if they immediately issued a revolver with one bullet - why waste time on trifles.
And, most importantly, not a single muscle trembled on their faces when the child cried. Only Svetlakov, like a bear in a cage, toiled with a pendulum from Litvinova to Yursky.
Creative personalities, subtle natures, everything is clear.
I sing this song that if you love a person, you don’t have to offend him, - the guilty Vika crucified in front of them on stage.
Can you be more precise?
She's eight.
OPINION
Do not cripple children with glory
Natalia VARSEGOV
Our nine-year-old Ksyusha dreams of getting on the Voice. Children". She watches the show and sees herself on stage, beautiful, sonorous and successful. Great parental work is worth explaining to the child that all this is empty vanity. Look everyone, oh, what I am! This is the path to spiritual death. Showing off, grimacing for the entertainment of the public is a low thing for a decent child. (This is our opinion with my husband. We will consider objections.) ()
MEANWHILE
Mom of a crying girl at the “Minute of Glory”: “I don’t understand why you scold me?”
Parents of Vika Starikova for the first time explain why they sent the child to the competition and why their baby burst into tears on stage ()
Thanks to judging in the show “Minute of Glory”, Renata Litvinova and Vladimir Pozner began to get into the news every week: first they brought an eight-year-old girl to tears, and then reproached the dancer with one leg for exploiting his fortune. And these are not the first conflicts on the show this season. "360" tells what is happening on Channel One.
First, the scandal erupted because of the performance at the "Minute of Glory" by eight-year-old Victoria Starikova, who came from Nizhny Tagil. She sang Zemfira's song "Live in your head."
Jury members Vladimir Pozner and Renata Litvinova were not at all impressed by the girl's performance. Posner was embarrassed that the child sang a song written by an adult with a certain life experience that the girl does not have. Litvinova suggested that Vika did not choose the song herself.
Sergey Svetlakov stood up for the girl, who was very touched by her singing.
Honestly, I had thoughts: “Well, of course, this is a move: take an adult song, a beautiful child sings and doesn’t fucking understand what he sings about.” But this song itself shows the great, probably, talent of this child. At eight years old, she may be older than all of us.
Sergey Svetlakov.
Having received two votes out of four, according to the rules of the show, the girl had to flip a coin - it was she who had to decide her fate on the project. Luck was on her side and Vika went to the next round, although she survived several unpleasant minutes.
The tears of an eight-year-old girl could not leave the audience indifferent. In addition to the audience, the famous producer Maxim Fadeev also spoke: on his Instagram, he named Posner's attitude to the child is "cruel and absolutely insensitive", and he did not comment on Litvinova's behavior at all, because "everything is clear with her." Fadeev admitted that he even cried with the girl.
Of course, there should be criticism, but it should be accurate and not evil. In relation to such a little girl, criticism should be in the form of a game or soft and paternal. For the child to understand correctly. But Mr. Posner chose a different style of communication with a child no taller than 40 cm. When I watched what the jury members said to her, I cried with her
- Maxim Fadeev.
A new scandal involving odious presenters at the end of last week. The March 4 episode featured dancers Alena Shcheneva and Yevgeny Smirnov, who lost his leg in a car accident.
This time, Posner became the catalyst for the conflict. He admitted that he admired the dancer, but called his performance a forbidden technique. He was the only one of the judges who voted against the dancers.
When a person goes out without a leg, it is impossible to say no, because this is a kind of feat.
- Vladimir Pozner.
Litvinova turned out to be more supportive of the dance duet, although she somewhat agreed with Pozner: she called Smirnov an amputee and suggested that he fasten his other leg so as not to "exploit this topic."
Svetlakov again had to defuse the atmosphere, who noticed that the dancer did not emphasize his condition.
Now there was a number on stage, backed up by the right music. He danced like a dancer, not like a cripple. He did what many of us with two legs can't do. This is not only a feat, but it is close to art.
- Sergey Svetlakov.
Recall, at the beginning of the season, Renata Litvinova for excessive aggression and rudeness towards the contestants. Journalists drew attention to the rude statements of the actress against the aspiring poetess from Minsk Natalia Treya. According to Litvinova, the work of the contestant « weak." Then Litvinova ruthlessly criticized Alexander Zagidullin, who performed the head dance. The audience of the "Minute of Glory" ambiguously assessed the behavior of the actress on the show.
At the most famous talent show in Russia, Minute of Glory, there was a new scandal: project jury member Renata Litvinova asked a dancer with an amputated leg to fasten his other limb so as not to focus on his disability. The statement of the 50-year-old actress caused an uproar on social networks: viewers are calling on the producers to exclude Litvinova from the judges.
The act of the actress did not leave indifferent the participant of the show - 30-year-old Evgeny Smirnov. The young dancer lost his leg in a car accident, but decided to continue his career despite his physical disability. The artist managed to successfully perform in the show "Dancing", forcing the jury to give him a standing ovation during the first performance, take part in the clip of Nargiz Zakirova and several other projects. Now Evgeny has organized an inclusive dance school, where he conducts master classes and helps people with disabilities across the country. In an exclusive interview with Life, Eugene stressed that he considers Renata Litvinova's act outrageous, and told how other participants reacted to the words of the actress.
Firstly, I am very offended, - Evgeny Smirnov shared with Life. - All of Russia heard these words. And in general, to hear these remarks in your direction, an amputee, not an amputee, what's the difference! I came to show what I can do, and they tell me something like "go fasten your leg, and only then dance." In general, I was given a clear understanding that there is nothing to do here without a leg. I do not think that the jury should be people who allow themselves to say such things. This is humiliating even for Litvinova herself.
How did other project participants who were behind the scenes react to Renata Litvinova's statement?
I talked with the contestants, with the usual staff, and everyone was just shocked by what was happening on stage, by our dialogue, or rather, a monologue, because I didn’t even have time to object. After that, many people doubted whether to go on stage at all, some fear settled in their souls. And before me, what Litvinova said to other people is simply terrible. For example, she told the children: "You are so scary, you would only act in horror films." I was shocked.
Have you seen Vika Starikova's speech, how did you react to Renata Litvinova's criticism of her?
We performed right after Vicky. When she was told this, I thought, what will they say to me? Will my work be judged? Unfortunately, they chose the other side. Unfortunately, I was not able to talk with Vika, I followed, and she was in shock. It was impossible to hide her disappointment, she walked, cried, other participants approached her, tried to calm her down.
You participated in other Russian projects, many people remember you from the show "Dancing". Have you ever been told something similar in other contests?
Everything was humane in "Dances" both among the jury and the participants. There I went with a message that I want to promote: I do not notice that I am without a leg, I dance and show art. They gave me this opportunity and didn't seem to notice either. I talked and danced with everyone on an equal footing, we were given the same tasks, without singling out me in any way. I have never heard such an attitude towards myself and such words as in the "Minute of Glory".
Do you see the point in continuing to stay in the project "Minute of Glory"?
I see the point in fighting on just because of what Litvinova said. She said the word amputee and asked me to strap my leg in, you know? Now I put the number, let's see what happens next. But I will no longer be silent, I will express my position, and it doesn’t matter whether they let me go to the next round or not. I don't care if I get through, if I get through. I just want to defend my opinion, the opinion of a person, not an amputee.
Appearance Litvinova in "Minute of Glory" greatly increased the ratings of an already popular project. The actress's negative and sometimes caustic comments about the participants do not always coincide with the opinion of the audience and cause a flurry of criticism against her. Renata outdid herself last week trying to rate the number Evgenia Smirnova. Many people knew the story of this guy even before the “Minute of Glory”. The dancer lost his leg in a car accident, but did not stop doing what he loved. This fact did not seem to affect Litvinova much. After listening to the opinions of her colleagues, she stated that she understood all the difficulties of the life of an "amputee" and even agreed to let him go further. However, she advised to "fasten the second leg" so that the young man's physical handicap was not so obvious and he "did not exploit this topic." Who else Litvinova rejected at the “Minute of Glory”, read the material AiF.ru.
1. "You made me wildly pissed off"
Alexander Zagidulin he had been preparing for the project for about three years, but his “dance”, performed upside down on one head, made Renata indignant: “It just pissed me off! I can't understand why I have to look at those legs of yours for so long?" The last straw was Alexander's "tight pants", which were also not understood by Litvinova.
2. “You didn’t come here, you need to keep working”
Participant Natalia Treye, who spoke to the judges with poems of her own composition and a special video, although she did not manage to go further, she was still lucky. Renata quite restrainedly appreciated the efforts of the girl and simply advised her to continue working on herself.
3. "I got unhooked"
Svetlana Tulasi wanted to conquer the judges with her Indian dance. But she managed to charm only two members of the jury, and Renata was not among them. Litvinova was laconic: "There's no match there," she declared ingenuously, and resolutely pressed the red button.
4. "Almost threw up"
The ability to deftly juggle balls once brought Nikita Izmailov victory in the eighth season of "Minute of Glory". The guy's second attempt to repeat his own success almost failed. The judges pondered for a long time whether it was possible to give a chance to Nikita and his partner Grigory Bondarevsky. And when the young people came closer to the jury table to once again demonstrate some elements of the performance, Renata said: “Either I will fall asleep, or I will vomit a little now.”

5. "I internally protest against this"
When an eight year old Victoria Starikova came on stage with Zemfira's song "Live in your head", nothing foreshadowed trouble. But it still happened. The judges, contrary to expectations, did not begin to be touched by the performance of the young artist, but began to criticize her. As a result, the girl cried right on stage. By the way, Litvinova was far from being the main one in this attack, but it was she who got all the negativity of social media users.
Why you shouldn't rush to crucify a child, even if he sang with mistakes
It was a few days ago, I hoped that he would let me go, but alas. We'll have to start the post with anger, as usual. The post is not one on Facebook, another.
So. Most of you do not watch TV (thrown away, given away, smashed, why this zombie man, now everything on the Internet can be downloaded, etc.).
And I'm watching.
There is such a show "Minute of Glory", this is an adaptation of the British project Britain's Got Talent. People of different ages and different degrees of giftedness come out, do things, they are evaluated: whether they go further or not.
And here comes the girl. She's eight years old. Came from Nizhny Tagil. And sings "Live in your head" by Zemfira.
Sings unevenly.

There are different girls in the world: some go out, hoot, and work like a German machine, others shake, bite their nails, but forget about everything on stage, others have fun, make fun and perceive everything as a game, the fourth are not confident in themselves, they are afraid. Most of them are. Girl Victoria - yes, the name is suitable - one of those.
The baby makes a mistake, then accelerates and gives out a pretty good cover on the whole. Mine. Special. With blots, but honest and sometimes really talented.
And then they start to trample on it.
Jura is the first to get up. It should be clarified that I almost completely know by heart the lines of all his movie characters. At “Foma Opiskin” at the Moscow City Council Theater I was three times, a couple more times at “Dinner with Comrade Stalin” at the School of Modern Play. Of the five books of the actor, he read three and once even helped one writer to make a book about Jurassic himself. Let him consider Crimea "a terrible manifestation of Russia's national lack of culture." And he goes to marches of "dissenters". For God's sake.
But what does he carry?
- Sergey Yuryevich, do you know whose song this is? - the host of the show asks the master Mikhail Boyarsky.
- No (here attention to the face of Litvinova!).
“I would like you to write this song,” Yursky turned to an eight-year-old girl, referring to the song written by Zemfira at about 35 years old. “I think she could. I feel originality in performance. This is not imitation. But, bowing to you, I'm afraid that on the next round you will be required to sing another song. Or compose yourself, which you did not present today (!). No need to hurry. So you happened on the big stage. On the big screen. Began! And don't let it be running. Let it be normal growth.
And presses the red button - home.
The girl starts crying.
Renata Litvinova continues, which, of course, was given large during Zemfira's song. She was hurt that the girl:
a) does not know Zemfira's songs
b) does not understand what the song is about
c) parents persuaded to the “forbidden reception”
What is forbidden? Parents, remembering the unconventionally close relationship between Z. and R., decided to convince the child to sing this in order to outwit Litvinova and pity her? Or the girl herself came up with it.
Miracles of deduction.
Vladimir Pozner finishes off, who believes that it is unacceptable to release a mediocre child for slaughter just to amuse parental vanity.
The only adequate was Svetlakov, who tried to stop the madness and save the child.
I don't know why, but it kills.
I reviewed and reviewed.
And he could not understand: how can one be such callous, wooden and heartless idols. Why were they put there at all? Yursky was born in 1935, he knows neither the songs of Zemfira, nor "Spleen", nor the rappers who come to the project. Why put Grandpa in an awkward position.
By what professional criteria was the little one killed? Did the “director” Litvinova or the TV presenter Pozner hear the marriage in the upper register or did they understand that the girl could not keep the tessitura? People who had previously gladly let professional acrobats, professional tightrope walkers, a professional magician, professional dancers, professional gymnasts into the project. For what? Who is interested in watching them? Are we in the Zapashny circus at the casting?
Yes, and how is this even possible in principle - the child is standing, crying, and he is monotonously and measuredly rolled into the asphalt with passion.
What are you, comrades? This is a show. Let everything was not perfect, so what. She tried, she hit almost everything, accompanied herself, followed her hands. Which makes the task twice as difficult.
I have been writing about the children's "Voice" for the fourth year, I know how and where these children come from. There is no blasphemy. Often they are collected money for tickets by municipal deputies or foundations, they are dressed by local firms, only so as not to disgrace themselves in Ostankino. And there sits an inflated redneck and, with the look of canned food professors, cut off the girl's wings with a chainsaw.
Vladimir Vladimirovich Pozner and Sergey Yuryevich Yursky - for two 163 years old - they love to remember censorship and artistic councils that killed hosts of talents in the USSR.
“When geeks take the stage, it’s already clear that they are great,” Posner explained.
Is it okay that Arkhipova came to the conservatory at the age of 23? Montgomery started playing guitar at 20.
A student of the mathematical school of Nikolash Rimsky-Korsakov, who was sent to the piano "for emancipation", at the age of 15 he was indifferent to music lessons, and by the age of 18 he took and wrote three parts of the symphony.
Aram Khachaturian studied physics and until the age of 19 he only heard about music.
Eight years of Victoria. Eight. At this age, nothing can be understood yet - it happened, it didn’t happen.
A small, eared miracle with a scythe. She sang unevenly, with mistakes, but she sang sincerely, quite cleanly on the choruses, original, did not copy, she put all her little heart into it. Valery Obodzinsky did not have any music school, he worked as a stoker and pulled springs on mattresses, and then he sang - and sang all his life contrary to the canons and methods. What is wrong with this?
As a result, the child was forced to throw a coin (such is the regulation !!!) to determine whether it remains on or not, because two judges are for, two are against. Medieval savagery and humiliation. It would be better if they immediately issued a revolver with one bullet - why waste time on trifles.
And, most importantly, not a single muscle trembled on their faces when the child cried. Only Svetlakov, like a bear in a cage, toiled with a pendulum from Litvinova to Yursky.
Creative personalities, subtle natures, everything is clear. But I really want to wish Zemfira and Renata to have a baby together. In any way - adopt or something. And try at 40 for the first time to live not for yourself.
On the other hand, here it is.
“I sing this song that if you love a person, you don’t have to offend him,” the guilty Vika crucified in front of them on stage.
Is it possible to be more precise at all?
She's eight.
It's not about pity and not even about the competition. The show "Minute of Glory" is not an exam in Gnesinka. This is just a TV show. Do you want to judge strictly? Fine. There is only one caveat. In the children's "Voice" kids are weeded out in batches, but this never happens in such a cynical, sophisticated and inhuman form. To kick the child, and go over the parents in his presence. At least it's low.
P.S. Please watch to the end of the Wiki's video number. At 12 minutes the most important thing begins.
