Pugacheva responded for the first time to Simonyan’s words, who called Galkin a gay

Interview with Pugacheva

In a recent interview, Alla Pugacheva commented on the words of Russian journalists, discussing the reaction to their statements. She said that laughter helps to perceive negative comments.

According to the singer, the criticism of her and Maxim Galkin is related to the dissatisfaction of those who live worse. “Only those who are worse off than us say so,” she explained.

Response to accusations

When the journalist mentioned Margarita Simonyan’s words about her “fake family,” Pugacheva double-checked this information. She stated that she does not know how these words relate to her life. “And what did Simonyan say?” she clarified, laughing.

Then the singer shared her opinion on what is being discussed. Simonyan called Galkin “a gay man who married an older woman for enrichment.” Pugacheva saw nothing wrong with this: “Call me a pot if you like, just don’t put me in the oven,” she added. The singer believes that such statements should not be bothersome.

The history of Pugacheva and Galkin’s family

Alla Pugacheva and Maxim Galkin became husband and wife on December 23, 2011. They are raising two children, twins Lisa and Harry, who were born on September 18, 2013, with the help of a surrogate mother.

Life in Israel

With the beginning of the harassment of Galkin after his criticism of Russia’s military aggression in Ukraine, the family decided to move to Israel. The couple left Russia with their children to avoid pressure and threats.

Status of foreign agent

On September 16, 2022, Maxim Galkin was included in the register of “foreign agents” in Russia. Despite this, he continues to perform in Europe and America, speaking critically about the actions of the Russian leadership.

In the spring of 2022, in an interview, Simonyan made sharp statements addressing Galkin and Pugacheva. This happened after Galkin criticized Russian military actions in Ukraine and called for answers about the presence of Russian troops on Ukrainian territory.

Pugacheva and Galkin continue to live their lives, despite the attacks from a person accustomed to such methods of condemnation.
