Quotes from interviews
Here are just a few interesting quotes:
- In an interview with the Sobesednik newspaper, Lazarev said: “For me, Madonna has always been a reference point. We can talk about her meager vocal abilities, but an aunt of more than 50 years old leads the youth. At the same time, even the old public does not turn away from her. This is an example of how you can and should feel the time, how important it is for an artist not to stop at one trick that you once caught.”
- In an interview with the Ukrainian TV channel 1+1 in June 2014, he noted that he did not experience “joy and euphoria” about the annexation of Crimea to Russia. “Perhaps Russian fans will throw tomatoes at me now, but I’m so used to it that when I come to Yalta, this is Ukraine for me.” The singer later stated that with the help of editing, the interview was edited in such a way that his answers looked anti-Russian.
- “In general, I try to live for today. I'm probably a realist. Maybe it’s bad, I don’t know, but maybe it’s good.”
- “Doubts are traitors: they rob us of the good we could achieve, making us afraid to even try.”
- “I have a long way behind me, in my hands I have accumulated experience and a firm belief that what I do is the work of my whole life.”
Incidents
On September 18, 2010, during Sergei Lazarev’s speech at City Day in Rostov-on-Don, the organizers suddenly interrupted his speech right in the middle and turned off the microphone. After this, the concert hosts announced a fireworks display. Lazarev stated that he had not finished singing five more songs: I had to work for an hour, my performance was delayed because there was a delay before me. It was not my fault! I was interrupted 40 minutes into the concert.
In addition, the singer announced that he intended to continue the concert after the fireworks, but this was denied to him. In response to this, a few days later, the head of the cultural department of the Rostov city administration, Lyudmila Lisitsina, stated that Lazarev and the people working with him were warned about everything and knew in advance what time they had to leave the stage[29]. She also said that no one drove him away, and the presenters simply reminded the singer of the time. Lisitsina explained the refusal to continue the concert after the fireworks due to safety requirements, since otherwise there could have been a stampede.
At one time, Lazarev threatened to sue the social network VKontakte for illegally posting pirated copies of his songs even before their official release. He demanded that these copies be deleted, but instead, on December 12, 2012, almost all of Sergei’s songs were deleted from VKontakte “due to lack of cultural value” or “due to low quality of performance” (as it later turned out, not all songs suffered this fate ). The singer himself was very dissatisfied with this fact and decided to sue.
On May 2, 2020, at one of the rehearsals before the Eurovision Song Contest, Sergei Lazarev fell from the set and fell from a meter in height. Despite assurances from Lazarev’s team that the artist was not injured, almost a year later, on the air of the “Ideal Repair” program, he said that he then suffered an injury to his right leg.
