Brilliant and scandalous, bright and fearless, magnificent and vulgar... When applied to Alla Pugacheva, any strongest epithet will seem too pale and weak. She is always the center of attention. She is the queen of the Russian stage. She no longer needs to sing, perform provocative acts, or give interviews. Her throne is already unshakable, because every person who speaks Russian knows who Alla Pugacheva is. But not everyone understands what she had to go through and how much she endured in order to climb Olympus. Alla Pugacheva is the path from “pretty mediocrity "to Prima Donna - in this book.
