A heated exchange occurred between host Nikolai Baskov and invited expert Vanya Dmitrienko during the latest episode of the show “Come On, All Together!”. The conflict arose from a series of jokes and comments, highlighting a generational clash and differences in opinion regarding the contestants’ performances.
The tension initially sparked when Dmitrienko, a 20-year-old singer, offered constructive criticism to a contestant named Artemy Ponomarev, advising him to embrace his passion and confidence. Baskov then mocked Dmitrienko’s age and knowledge of fashion, leading to a sharp-witted retort from the younger singer about Baskov’s wig. This joke resonated with the other jury members, further fueling the animosity.
Later in the show, the conflict escalated after the performance of Sofya Mironova. Dmitrienko praised her vocal abilities but criticized her song choice. Baskov interrupted, arguing that aspiring artists should possess good judgment and not rely solely on praise. He also emphasized the importance of age and experience in the entertainment industry, seemingly undermining Dmitrienko’s credibility. Lazarev intervened to prevent the argument from escalating further.
Despite their earlier disagreements, Baskov and Dmitrienko appeared to reconcile as the show progressed. They did not express any objections to the performances of the contestants who ultimately advanced to the semi-final round: Ksenia Korobkova and Sergey Syr. The qualifying round concluded with these two contestants securing their spots in the next phase of the competition.
