Alexander Gradsky appeared on the set of “The Voice” in a wheelchair. Alexander Gradsky appeared at the Kobzon anniversary in a wheelchair Alexander Gradsky what happened to him


Filming for the sixth season recently started. show "The Voice", which means the program management has already decided on the composition of mentors this year. Fans of the show remember how negatively TV viewers and many music experts reacted to last year’s appointment of the show’s management. After all, then Polina Gagarina, Grigory Leps and rapper Basta became members of the jury. This composition of mentors seemed incompetent to many - the stars were accused of not professionally selecting participants in blind auditions.


Apparently, this year the show's management decided to listen to the wishes and comments of TV viewers and fans of the program. Thus, it became known that in the sixth season the “golden” jury, which included Alexander Gradsky, Leonid Agutin, Dima Bilan and Pelageya. This was announced by the General Producer of the United Directorate of Music and Entertainment Broadcasting of Channel One, Yuri Aksyuta. A video announcing the names of mentors was published on the channel’s website.


Fans of the program were delighted with the news of the return of the “golden” jury. However, many were alarmed by the news that Gradsky was coming to the set of the show in a wheelchair. According to eyewitnesses, the organizers of “The Voice” even had to install a special ramp so that Alexander could sit in the mentor’s red chair.


As it turned out, the artist broke his leg shortly before filming began. However, despite the accident, he decided not to refuse work and accepted Channel One’s offer to participate in the sixth season of “The Voice.” Gradsky missed the fifth season of the program, which, according to rumors, he refused to participate in due to disagreements with the management regarding his fee. However, there is another version - gossips claim that Alexander was very disappointed with the results of the fourth season, when it was not his ward who became the winner and therefore refused to film in the fifth season. Neither the musician himself nor his representatives confirmed these speculations in any way.

“She’ll tear my leg off!” Can you be quieter?"

Let's start with the fact that Alexander Gradsky arrived at Mosfilm, where the filming took place, in a wheelchair. The master broke his hip.

But it’s not easy for him to sit in a red chair for several hours in a row, but he has to spin around! What to do? Don't give up work. I had to endure it. For Alexander Borisovich this was truly a feat: he arrived at ten in the morning, and filming began at 15.30.

Dima Bilan sewed a new suit especially for the sixth “Voice” - fashionable, elegant, in a rare eggplant shade. But bad luck - the suit in the frame strobed and glared. The director did not allow us to film with a marriage. The upset artist was sent home to change clothes.

We waited. Let's start. In the first hour, a couple of people were chosen. Either the process of changing clothes knocked down Bilan’s usual mood, or he became more cynical, but he didn’t slam the button for each number. Previously, they laughed behind the scenes of “The Voice”: Bilan can be sent home after the first day of filming: usually he recruited a team during this time. Now everything is different. And the other mentors looked more serious and reasonable.

Can this thing turn slower? - Gradsky could not stand it after another sharp turn of the chair. She'll tear my leg off!

The geography of the project, as always, is vast: the CIS, Mauritius, USA, Italy, Estonia and so on.

Here is a mulatto wandering around with a guitar, here is actor and director Kirill Pletnev looking for his people, here is a flight attendant flitting around in an Aeroflot uniform. He says that this is the third time on “The Voice”. The first time the girl was included in the reserve, she was invited the next year, but she didn’t pass the casting, and now she’s trying again. The lead singer of the once popular “White Eagle” Alexander Yagya smokes alone on the sidelines. There is no hype around him. Most of the “Voice” recruits know Ivan Dorn rather than the performer of the hit “How delightful are the evenings in Russia.”

In general, a living illustration of the other side of success. Everything is decay. Only a few become legends like Gradsky.

And here’s another story: Alexander Borisovich, who missed his colleagues and the project, was extremely frank that day. - A friend and I are sitting in a restaurant in America, and at the next table is Mickey Rourke. Well, some guy comes in, takes the phone, and starts filming me. The girls are with him - they start giggling, take out their phones, and also take pictures. I hear from the speech that they are Russians. Rourke looks and doesn’t understand: what the hell? And then he asks: “Who are you, why are they all filming you?” Well, I say, I used to play football, apparently they found out...

“Have I really been sitting next to a monster all season?!”

One of the participants used a cunning but old trick - he sang the mentor's song. The guy, despite the sunny day, took “Summer Rain” by Agutin. And he performed, accompanying him on the piano, in a slightly hoarse voice - well, the spitting image of Anton Belyaev. Even the arrangement is a little bluesy.

The song was similar to the original, but the references were not very direct,” Pelageya appreciated the attempt. - Rather, the music leads to the original version. Not bad.

Yes, at my anniversary concert Vanya Dorn, who was in charge of youth music, tried to do this thing,” Agutin explained. - I sing this song when I feel that my throat is tired and I need to rest. After all, you don’t actually need to sing anything in it. But you could experiment. There are moments when you can go upstairs and show your voice. This, alas, was not listened to. You remained exactly in the same tessitura.

I agree, we had to surprise,” Gradsky confirmed in a voice as hoarse as the vocalist’s.

A young guy from Tallinn launched into Jaak Joala’s “I’ll Pick Some Music” with almost no accent. Very similar to Maroon 5 lead singer Adam Levine, who judges on The Voice. Not only visually, but also in the manner of singing.

Gradsky looks at Pelageya questioningly. Like, your client. After the speech, a conversation ensues in the style of Vitaly Mutko.

How old are you? - the mentor asked about the artist’s age.

31,” he answered in broken Russian.

When the guy leaves, the singer begins to sing a school song about the English alphabet: “Hey, bi, si, di, i, ef, ji...” Apparently, feeling awkward about the content of the conversation with the overseas guest.

By the way, they don’t say “zet” in the USA; Miami resident Leonid Agutin slightly corrected the singer. - They don't have such a letter. They say "zi", and this is a disappointment for us Russians!

At this moment, Gradsky suddenly took out a huge comb, like Rapunzel’s, and began gracefully combing his hair. If you shoot this in rapid-fire and put, for example, music from the Twin Peaks intro on the video, you'll get a hit for the ages.

I'm afraid to look! - Pelageya admitted honestly.

And I,” Bilan supported.

“But I read the comments,” Agutin shared. - So much has been written about Polina Gagarina! I even thought about it. Did I really sit through the whole season with a monster? How is this possible...

Previously, Alexander Gradsky, considered one of the members of the “golden cast” of “Voice” mentors,. In his interview with ELLE magazine, the composer said that last season the mentors failed to work together.

At the same time, according to some media reports, the channel’s management decided to change mentors under pressure from fans who were irritated by the figures of Grigory Leps and Polina Gagarina. RBC wrote about this, in particular, citing sources familiar with the situation.

His appearance in the Kremlin Palace created a real sensation, because none of the guests expected to see the musician in such a state. However, everything turned out to be not as scary as fans thought. Alexander Borisovich simply broke his leg, but according to Leonid Agutin he is already on the mend:

“With men at the anniversary of Joseph Davydovich Kobzon. Alexander Borisovich broke his leg, but is already recovering. Funny."

The artist was also supported by his longtime friend, musician Alexander Buinov. He not only helped Gradsky with moving around the Kremlin, but also remembered how once upon a time they played together in Moscow:

“Black and white report from the concert in the Kremlin!
Gradsky broke his leg, but he still rolled out on stage to Joseph Kobzon in a wheelchair, man! Let me remind you that Sanya and I started rock and roll in Moscow. The legendary group “Skomorokhi”! Get well soon, Brother!”

We join all the wishes of the celebrity guests and wish Alexander Borisovich to get better as soon as possible. ?
