The Unfulfilled Acting Dreams of Philip Kirkorov: How Fame Became His Biggest Barrier

The singer was overtaken by a big failure.

Philip Kirkorov is now known all over the world as the king of the Russian stage. However, the artist did not always want to sing. In his youth, he dreamed of becoming an actor and shining on blue screens, and not on stage. But the path to the cinema was forever ordered to him.

According to the ex-husband of Alla Pugacheva, he fell in love with the world of cinema, being just a child. He took his first steps in the acting direction without fame and influence. However, instead of a debut, he was refused. The future favorite of the public was told that he was too handsome for films.

After a while, having gained worldwide fame, Philip Bedrosovich did not give up trying to master the acting profession. Today he has over 50 projects to his credit. Nevertheless, the masters to this day are in no hurry to trust him with roles. The artist received a refusal even from Nikita Mikhalkov.

“Who would you like to play?” Nikita Sergeevich asked me a question. “In general, even in the theater, even in the cinema, I am the Lion King. Not Hamlet,” I answered then. And he said: “The trouble is that you go on stage or enter the frame, and still everyone will see Kirkorov. No matter what you play.” And this is true, unfortunately. That image that I have nurtured for 30 years has settled so strongly in the minds of people that nothing can be done about it, ”the artist shared.

Portal “VokrugTV” writes that Fyodor Bondarchuk is of the same opinion.
