52-year-old People’s Artist of the Russian Federation Mikhail Porechenkov spoke rather unflatteringly regarding his colleagues. In particular, regarding their ability to independently reason regarding politics.
On the air of the RTVI Entertainment YouTube channel, Porechenkov, in response to a request to comment on the situation with the protests in Kazakhstan and Belarus, was surprised that for some reason everyone believes that the artists understand politics.
“These are stupid people, they always pronounce other people’s texts, learn poetry, tell someone else’s dramaturgy from the stage,” Porechenkov said.
He also added that in this regard, you should not believe the words of the artists, you need to believe yourself.
