Simonyan spoke about changes in the New Year's television broadcast schedule

MOSCOW, December 31 Fragments with the participation of Philip Kirkorov and Lolita Milyavskaya were cut from the broadcast of New Year's programs on federal channels, the chief editor of the media group said in the Telegram channel «Russia Today» and RT TV channel Margarita Simonyan.
“The channels recorded New Year’s shows, as always, a month ago. When nothing, as they say, foreshadowed. As a result, the First and “Russia 1” had to redraw their “Ogonki”, cutting out Lolita and Kirkorov from there, second by second. On NTV they will remain in «in the most truncated form, since they are conducting the finales of two shows. Not broadcasting the finale or re-filming it would have been painful for the participants in the competition. In the end, they cut it as best they could. A whole piece of the movie was re-shot on TNT,» she wrote.

The editor-in-chief offered to atone for the participants of the ill-fated “naked party” by sending funds to help the soldiers of a special military operation, and published the card number for transferring money.

On the evening of December 20, a party was held at the Moscow club “Mutabor”, organized by actress and blogger Anastasia Ivleeva. In accordance with the dress code, many Russian pop stars showed up half-naked, which is why the event began to be called a “naked party.” This caused a sharply negative reaction in society. Ivleeva and other party participants, including Kirkorov and Milyavskaya, were forced to make excuses.
For organizing a scandalous party, the Lefortovo Court of Moscow fined Ivleeva 100 thousand rubles.
