Comedian Maxim Galkin, who recently spoke about the “alcoholic odyssey” of the singer Nikolai Baskov, recalled another extremely uncomfortable incident with an artist with whom he has long been friends.
According to him, it all happened several years ago at the New Wave competition, at a reception at the former President of Latvia Valdis Zatlers. “We talk, in half an hour Basque comes in, who is late. He walked all night, had fun, sang on the tables. It feels like he just didn’t sleep at all, ”Galkin said on the YouTube show“ I know myself! ”.
That evening, the “natural blonde” prepared a gift for Zatlers in the form of a bottle of vodka, packed under the “Soviet shell with a red star.” At the same time, the “golden voice” of the Russian stage put the bottle on his shoulder and “fired” as if from a bazooka. As a result, a jar of pickles fell out of the box with the bottle and, hitting the chair of Zatlers, scattered. As a result, as noted by Galkin, the president “was covered in this brine.”
Baskov, realizing what had happened, said “well, here”, put down the bottle of vodka and sat down at the table with a flushed face. “Moreover, on the one hand, he is ashamed, on the other, he tries to restrain his laughter,” said Pugacheva’s husband about Baskov’s embarrassment.
Earlier, comedian Maxim Galkin told about Baskov’s “drunken” adventure, who slept twice on the plane, and then ended up in Odessa instead of Moscow.
