TOP-8: This is a scandal!

The new season of Russian show business, like an exciting series, gave us fresh intrigues. Public disassembly between Zemfira and Konstantin Ernst, a scandal around the little -known singer of Grui - either an innocent victim, or an unscrupulous customer of the producer Maxim Fadeev. And at the same time, the return of the previous composition of the Prime Minister group to producer Evgeny Friedlandu and the reconciliation of former participants of one of the main raps of the country Centr. Colta.ru remembered the 8 most high-profile scandals in the Russian show biz over the past 5 years.

Star of stumbling

The first scandal of the year struck when the red signal bulbs have not yet extinguished on the cells that shot the opening of the Sochi Olympics. On the official website of the singer Zemfira, on the night of the opening, an entry appeared to the general director of Channel One Konstantin Ernst:

“Channel One ignored all possible agreements and used my track without consent. This is a direct violation of copyright. This is chaos. The discovery is great! Kostya, congratulations! But what is this g *** o? Do you do whatever you want? "

Subsequently, it turned out that at the opening of the Olympic Games, a fragment of Zemfira’s song “Do you want?”, Sounded in Remix in the DJs of Leonid Rudenko, was used.

The history of the conflict

Zemfira voiced her desire to speak at the opening of the Olympic Games in Sochi in December last year. In an interview with the newspaper Kommersant, the singer said “I turned (regarding the speech to the organizing committee. - Ed. ), Received a softly formulated refusal. Well, at least, it will be possible to calmly and completely plunge into the world of sports for three weeks. ” They did not call the singer to speak, but Remix was put on the song.

Result

The main director of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games Konstantin Ernst reacted to the outraged replica of the singer and the noise on the Internet. On the air of the Echo of Moskvy radio , the head of Channel One said that at one time Zemfira violated the contract with Real Records , which he once led. And in the case of trials about Sochi, he will return to the story with the album "Z- S IDES" .

Recall that in 2009, Z-Sides “unexpectedly” was on the Internet bypassing the release label. Then one side of the conflict, in the form of the formal head of the company Andrei Lukinov, accused the singer of disrupting contract obligations, despite the advances and regular payments of the royalties, and the singer accused the opponents of non -compliance with Real Records for her obligations to her, including financial ones. The fact of label cooperation with the now inconspicuous singer Tanya Zykina, which many then called the "new Zemfira" also played its role. The "old" was suspected of creative jealousy. Then the parties came to a certain gentleman - and possibly formal - an agreement, the ax of the torus of war literally for six months, until February 2014. In all likelihood, it was the company then made concessions to the singer.

The monologue of Ernst acted on the current management of the singer sobering. Literally the very next day,a message appeared on Zemfira’s official page on Facebook , in which all claims to the first channel were reduced only to dissatisfaction with the processing of the track and ignoring the “interests of the artist”. There was no question of any trial, as stated in the record. The conflict can be recognized as exhausted.
