Burmaka responded by recalling the dubious compliment she received from Nina Matvienko when she was rehearsing a song with her daughter, Ukrainian singer Tonya Matvienko.
“Several years ago I came to Tonya Matvienko to rehearse. And Nina Mitrofanovna, her eternal memory, looks at me and suddenly says: “You have become so beautiful in your old age,” she offered an option from Burmak’s own life.
“It’s funny. She was a good singer, but sometimes she was as simple as a felt boot,” they reacted online.
“That was her realness,” Burmaka replied.
