It was held a round table in the State Duma on which it was discussed the controversial bill on regulation of domestic show business. It was attended by Alla Pugacheva, Maxim Galkin, Alexander Gradsky, Grigory Leps, Andrei Makarevich, Vyacheslav Butusov — only about 40 artists. Russian artists protested the bill about the new rules of the organization of concerts and demanded a serious revision of the bill.
Most of all addressed Alla Pugacheva, irritated by the fact that the draft law has not been discussed with the artists themselves, and she said that they sees no need in it, comparing it to serfdom.
