Vika Starikova sang Zemfira’s song “To live in your head”. The jury considered that the girl’s composition was clearly not chosen for her age.
There are people who dream of fame from the cradle and purposefully go to it, getting involved in all kinds of contests, quizzes, Olympiads and other events designed to increase their chances of becoming a star. And there are people who themselves have not been able to realize their ambitions and are now trying to translate them into their own children.
The question of what category Vika Starikova and her mother belong to caused a serious scandal on the Minute of Glory show.
If you are not a fan of the competition, we will briefly tell you what the essence of the matter is.
8-year-old Vika Starikova is one of the participants in the show. The girl chose Zemfira’s song “To live in your head” for the performance. She played it herself, sang it herself. But the judges did not like her number. The first to press the red button was Sergei Yursky. The girl was upset instantly, but still held on. Then Vladimir Pozner criticized her performance.
According to the harsh TV presenter, the song was completely inappropriate for Vicki.
– This is parental vanity, so that the children go on stage and they could be proud of them, – Pozner allowed himself a jab at Anna, Vika’s mother.
Renata Litvinova, who, as we understand, treats Zemfira’s work with special reverence, asked if Vika knew her other songs. No, Vika didn’t know. What the actress did not like: she walked quite coldly and venomously through the girl’s performance. As she later told in an interview with reporters ““Anna, they heard the song” Live in your head “not in the author’s performance. Someone managed to make a cover – and Vika liked it.
In general, after such a powerful rebuke, the girl burst into tears right on the stage. In defense of the little singer and her mother, only Sergei Svetlakov spoke out.
– She herself wanted to go on stage, – said the showman.
As a result, the jury could not decide whether to keep Vika in the competition or not: Svetlakov and Yursky were in favor, Litvinova and Pozner were against. The contestant decided her fate herself, tossing a coin. Hurray: Vika coped with the casting and moved on to the next tour.
Meanwhile, a real war unfolded on the network: someone defended Vika and her mother, someone attacked Anna, claiming that she crippled the child’s psyche, forcing her to participate in such shows. In response to the accusations, Vicki’s mother did not go into her pocket for a word.
– Why should you scold me? For helping my daughter’s dream come true? I don’t get fame. She got it all the same to Vika. She is well-known enough. She has 130 thousand subscribers on YouTube, – Anna wondered. – A test for the psyche? There are many such moments in life. Take any other competition. And on the math test, is there no load on the psyche? And on the exam?
As for the repertoire, according to Anna, it is difficult to separate creativity intended for children and adults.
– What do you think are children’s songs? Children’s poems? Do the poems about the war that we learn from kindergarten to every May 9 relate to them? And we explain to children what war, death, losses are, – said Anna.
Interview
What do you think? Should you choose age-appropriate songs?
Yes need. It is stupid when a child sings about something he does not understand.
It is necessary, because adult words and emotions in the mouth of a child sound vulgar.
There are songs that suit everyone. For example, “Forest Deer”.
Still, it’s better to take children’s poems. What’s wrong with cartoon songs?
What difference does it make which song? The main thing is talent.
