Concert organizer Sergey Lavrov stated that singer Alla Pugacheva has never mentioned her fees for performances. The producer shared this in a conversation with NEWS.ru.
He refuted rumors about the performer's decision to raise her fee to 500,000 euros. "The rumor about her returning to the stage for 50 million rubles is just that, likely started by some promoter. Pugacheva has never disclosed her fees," Lavrov noted.
The producer also added that Pugacheva might agree to perform for 50 million rubles, but on her own terms. "She is not a foreign agent and can perform concerts and work peacefully in Russia. If she announces a concert at the Kremlin tomorrow, tickets will be sold out. Several generations have grown up on her songs; she is a legend," Lavrov summarized. He also mentioned that reports about her recording new songs in Tver are false, as for the last 20 years, Pugacheva has been recording songs with sound producer Anatoly Lopatin in the Moscow region.
Earlier, the fees of Russian stars for New Year's Eve performances were revealed. According to the publication KP.RU, the most in-demand on December 31 were singer Anna Asti (real name Anna Dzyuba) and pop singer and composer Vladimir Presnyakov. The artists will perform for guests at the Barvikha Concert Hall, with ticket prices ranging from 50,000 to 200,000 rubles.
