Direct speech:

About the first steps to fame ( interview with COLTA. Ru): “When I recorded the first album,“ difficult age ”, I lived in Kazan. Then she moved to Moscow. So then it seemed to me that people in TV - either gays or girls with rich husbands. And everything, there is no other way. I came to Moscow just to work in cafes and restaurants. In the same way, I worked in Kazan. But once I arrived in St. Petersburg for the festival of dance music. There was not a single radio. I went on stage, and 15 thousand people sang the song "Difficult Age". Then it seemed to me that I ... went crazy. I stopped singing, lowered the microphone. The only time in my life on stage I did not know what to do. Just bowed and left. This is not from modesty, I was just scared. "

About pop and rock music (ibid.): “Some believe that if they came out with a guitar and a living team, then this is rock. Well, it turns out that Dima Bilan and Lazarev are rock. For example, I am a pop singer. And it will not be different. Someone recently wrote that I am now playing Glam rock-this is complete nonsense. I will not get out of my poppy anywhere.

In our country, most rockers play popps. Here I am too. For the sake of interest, I looked into Ozhegov’s dictionary, see the definitions. And I read there: rock and roll-dance, energetic, double. I definitely do not sing rock and roll. Rockers in Ozhegov are a team of unbridled young people who violate the rules of the road. I immediately decided to see what pops are. It turns out that this is uninteresting music for poorly educated youth. So, if I am a steep rocker, I have to take the tests on IQ with me and give it to the concert hall. The test did not pass - we do not let us go to the concert. It's funny. But seriously, it is the genre of pop music that gives me great freedom to experiment musically. ”

About the difference between women and men ( interviewing Maxim magazine ): “You can drink a man in the morning, make love with unfamiliar women, swear obscene, behave indecent - and everyone will cause the feeling that he is a genius. But if a woman begins to behave in the same way, the reaction will be the opposite. Of course, my big and talented musical team, which started with underground, can afford a lot, because they are men, but I just look at it with a smile from the outside. ”

On the award of the title of Honored Artist Karachay-Cherkessia in 2013: “For me, this is a big surprise. I am very grateful, touched and flattered, but it is strange that my native republic - Tatarstan did not do this. But in Karachay-Cherkessia, I can now travel in city transport by certificate without a ticket. ”
