Then, 17 years ago, on the same set, the editors of the show assembled a team of artists who today are simply impossible to imagine together in one project.
Among the participants were the then head of the Kvartal 95 studio, and now the President of Ukraine, Vladimir Zelensky, then the Ukrainian singer, and now a traitor to Ukraine, Ani Lorak, as well as showman Potap and his now wife, and then duet colleague Nastya Kamenskikh, who have been living abroad in recent years.
In addition, singers Natalya Mogilevskaya and Tina Karol took part in the show, whom Ani Lorak accused in March 2026 of allegedly “squeezing” her out of Ukraine.
The host of the show was Lydia Taran, who has been living and working in France in recent years.
During filming, Potap tried to tease Zelensky, saying that he “of course is Ukrainian, but not that much.”
“You can only find out how Ukrainian I am in the bathhouse, dear Potap,” the future president reacted harshly to the artist’s joke.
The archived video is actively commented on online.
“It’s nice to remember, and something makes me feel nauseous,” they write in the comments.
“Because of Lorak?” – suggested in response.
“Sleep at a temperature of 40 ° C,” the audience described what was happening.
