Anniversary concert of Kirkorov 50th anniversary. The country knows its heroes

According to the established tradition and according to the policy of the World podium publication, we divide a large number of photos from large-scale events into parts and make several publications dedicated to one Event in our publication! We prefer not to split text articles so that the integrity of perception is not violated. Today we bring to your attention the second part of the report from the solemn banquet in honor of the 50th anniversary of Philip Kirkorov, which took place in the Kremlin immediately after the anniversary concert on April 30th.

After the incendiary final song of the show “I”, with the optimistic title “Life will love us”, and a deafening storm of applause addressed to the King of Variety, the secular elite rushed to the 6th floor, to the banquet hall of the Kremlin Palace.

Decorating the location of Kirkorov's anniversary afterparty began a few days before the holiday date - not a single detail has disappeared from the watchful eye of the attentive organizers: the staff did everything to make the guests feel comfortable, pleasant and remember this holiday for a long time!

Even the invitations themselves were special and virtuoso: they were made in the form of a tablet with a built-in video playing a clip with Philip.

It is known that Philip Bedrosovich personally telephoned in advance each of the thousand guests invited to the anniversary. And on the afternoon of April 30, the Variety King specially set aside time to supervise the preparation of the celebration himself.

The interior of the banquet hall was decorated with fresh flowers, among which bewitching orchids, pineapples painted with gold, oysters and other luxurious delicacies prevailed.

Exquisite me of the evening satisfied the tastes of the most sophisticated gourmets. Among the dishes were live king crabs, pink lobsters with Perigord truffle and black caviar sturgeon, exotic seafood fricassee "Frutti di Mare", wild Ligurian sea bream, ribeye steak and much more.

Of course, you should separately tell about the unique cake- a real work of culinary and artistic art, made by confectioner Renat Agzamov and embodying the most creative ideas and fantasies.

The 400-kilogram masterpiece rotated on a stunning crown encrusted with caramel diamonds, five figures made of marzipan were located along the diameter, magnificently depicting different images of Philip Bedrosovich with portrait accuracy, and the letter “I” crowned this amazing sweet design.

At the beginning of the event, the audience was entertained by residents of the popular "Comedy Club"- Garik Kharlamov, Garik Matirosyan, who staged sparkling funny sketches on the stage, in the center of which, of course, was the hero of the occasion!

On the stage to congratulate Philip Bedrosovich came his father Bedros, aunt Marie, who amazed everyone with her incomparable vocals.

Many warm words addressed to the hero of the day were uttered in her inimitable manner by Alla Pugacheva. It's no secret that "the woman who sings" is one of the main personalities in the fate of the King of Variety.

Philip Bedrosovich said to Alla Borisovna: « Thank you very much, you made my life beautiful, you were a unique life partner for me - I will always keep this period in my heart! You were and remain the main muse of my life! You are who I look up to! And I will always say this!

Alla Borisovna wittily congratulated Philip Bedrosovich and summarized the main : « Let the children make you happy! These are your main hits!

Western stars were responsible for the musical program of the evening. Kirkorov pleased himself here, and also surprised his friends and colleagues by inviting to his anniversary a man whom he calls the main vector in his work - the legend of world music Engelbert Humperdinck.

Philip Bedrosovich has repeatedly admitted that from childhood he listened to the recordings of a unique baritone and could not even dream that Humperdinck would become an honored guest of his anniversary!

Another proof that nothing is impossible, and confirmation of the Carl Sanberg quote: “Everything that exists in the world was once a dream!”.

Humperdinck was accompanied by hits from the ABBA group, one of the favorite musical groups of the hero of the day. Alas, it is impossible to recreate the past composition in view of the inexorable regularity of time. A group founded by one of the members of the ABBA group came to Kirkorov for the anniversary, performing covers of hits loved by millions. Ani Lorak and Vera Brezhneva danced especially incendiary to the hits of "ABBA".

The holiday dragged on almost until the morning! All guests unconditionally again and again noted the incredible professional, technical and emotional level of Kirkorov's creativity in general and the show "I", in particular, congratulated the hero of the day on his birthday!

We summarize all the congratulations with the lines of Andrey Aleksin from Philip Kirkorov's song, entitled "Let love rule the world":

“...Thousands of roads to go through life and at the end of the path
Important: for someone to wait and there would be somewhere to return!

Let love rule the world!

So it was and so it will be again -
As long as people are alive.
Let love rule the world!
And no more words are needed
So it was and always will be!”

Brilliant luxury and natural soulfulness, human openness and royal pomposity, were sensitively synchronized in a stunning evening, but most importantly, there was real Sincerity!

Philip Kirkorov is a unique Artist and an epoch-making Personality who has gone down in history forever! For over 30 years, he has been conquering peaks, discovering new planets and pushing seemingly impossible horizons! How many different "I" in his arsenal? A kaleidoscope of images, a universe of ideas and facets! This star will never be lost in the galaxy of atmospheres and will not go out in showbiz albion.

Her Majesty Music reigns on Philip Kirkorov's Planet! May this planet never deviate from the given orbit and always follow the course chosen by the King!

Dozens of his star colleagues came to congratulate the singer. After the grandiose concert, the guests moved to a separate hall, which hosted the already closed part of the holiday.

A few hours ago, a large-scale festive evening ended in the State Kremlin Palace - the tenth day of the Moscow marathon of the show "I" by Philip Kirkorov. The culminating concert-performance that Philip gave on his 50th birthday, along with the ensuing VIP banquet for hundreds of friends and colleagues, was perhaps the most striking and stellar event of the past April.

Among the guests of the anniversary are Alla Pugacheva and Maxim Galkin, Christina Orbakaite and Mikhail Zemtsov, Bedros Kirkorov with Philip's children Martin and Alla Victoria, Tatyana Navka and Dmitry Peskov, Nikita and Tatyana Mikhalkov, Igor and Olga Krutye, Valeria and Joseph Prigogine, Laima Vaikule , Lyubov Uspenskaya, Ani Lorak, Vera Brezhneva, Nikolai Baskov, Timati, Dima Bilan ... - it's easier to list those who were not in the State Committee for Commemoration that evening, because it seems that everyone was here.

The concert turned out to be expectedly grandiose: transforming scenery, special effects, a ballet that presents almost circus choreography on stage, haute couture costumes, and behind all this action, directed by Franco Dragone, is the epoch-making personality of the protagonist, reduced to one letter - "I".

The famous musician Engelbert Humperdinck, “the teacher of youth from the record,” as Philip himself calls him, became a special guest of all Kirkorov’s Kremlin evenings. 80-year-old Humperdinck flew to Moscow to perform his hits and congratulate the one on whom he, unknowingly, had a tremendous influence in his time.

Before and after the show, guests could see a unique exposition in the foyer - an exhibition of photographs and the most iconic costumes of Kirkorov for 30 years, including from the very first show - from Slava Zaitsev, who was also present in the Kremlin on April 30. All these costumes - about 90 rare copies - were preserved thanks to Philip's father Bedros Kirkorov and costume designer Tatyana Malygina.

The afterparty for friends, whom Kirkorov invited by calling personally, exceeded the wildest expectations. It took place here, in the State Kremlin Palace, in a banquet hall lavishly decorated by the team of Andrey Fomin and Roman Kovalishin on the 6th floor of the palace - the very place from where President Vladimir Putin has repeatedly congratulated everyone on the New Year. By the way, on April 30, Putin congratulated Kirkorov on his anniversary in a corresponding telegram and signed a decree on awarding him the Order of Honor with the wording "for his great contribution to the development of domestic pop art and many years of fruitful activity" - the message was read out at the concert by Presidential Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov.

Toasts in honor of Kirkorov, songs, jokes sounded in the banquet hall all evening and still midnight. Gold-painted pineapples as decor, oysters and champagne, tables bursting with food and alcohol - all this only added drive to the audience: many began to congratulate Philip on social networks in the morning, and now they have the opportunity to do it personally.

Fiery speeches, including those of Philip himself, who knelt before Alla Pugacheva and promised to say “thank you” to her all his life, were an unconditional decoration of this night.

Another bright moment the celebration was the removal, or rather, the removal of a 400-kilogram cake. A sweet masterpiece, crowned with a golden letter "I" on a crown rotating around its axis with caramel diamonds, was created by confectioner Renat Agzamov. The holiday turned out great.

Yesterday, April 30, Philip Kirkorov's concert, which he gave on his birthday, ended at the State Kremlin Palace. The pop king of the Russian stage turned 50 years old - a small figure, but a serious one. Kirkorov approached such a landmark event with his usual royal scope: the show "I" turned out to be truly grandiose. Transforming scenery, complex costumes, incendiary choreography and, of course, Philip Kirkorov's old and new hits - all this and much more awaited the audience who wished to evaluate Kirkorov's new concert program with their own eyes.

This landmark performance was directed by the Italian theater director Franco Dragone, who has collaborated with one of the most famous circus shows on the planet Cirque du Soleil. Engelbert Humperdinck, one of Philip Bedrosovich's favorite musicians himself, was invited as a special guest - "the teacher of youth from the record", as Kirkorov himself called him. The 80-year-old performer specially flew to Moscow to congratulate the hero of the day and perform his songs.

Before the concert, while the star guests were scattered in congratulations, everyone in the lobby of the palace could admire the exposition of photographs and stage costumes of Kirkorov - there are about 90 of them in total. The first outfit for Phillip, by the way, was made by Vyacheslav Mikhailovich Zaitsev 30 years ago. All this splendor has been preserved thanks to the efforts of Father Kirkorov Bedros Filippovich and costume designer Tatyana Malygina.

The king of pop Philip Kirkorov spent about 40 million rubles on the anniversary. The singer celebrated his birthday in the Kremlin. According to rumors, the gifts were taken out by trucks.

Naturally, the question arose for those invited: what to give to a person who already has everything? The singer did not create a gift list with his desires. The only thing he asked his guests was not to give him shoes and clothes. Because, in his opinion, he lives in the wardrobe. Although he himself hoped that one of the guests would fulfill his old dream.

"Maybe someone will donate a car. Or maybe a plane. Ma-a-a-lazy airplane is my dream," the artist told the publication's correspondent.

True, it is not known whether Kirkorov was presented with a plane or a car, but the gifts from the Kremlin were taken out by trucks.
