Now Igor Poryvaev is considered a rather famous and at the same time mysterious person. Not everyone knows who it really is.
The story of Igor Poryvaev
In the show he is represented as a journalist from Australia. Like, he left his homeland in 1989. His image is quite interesting. Igor Poryvyov is seen by others as a slightly inhibited slacker, but at the same time he quite safely realizes his dream and becomes a journalist.
Now he has the opportunity to introduce the Australian audience to Russian stars. As conceived by the directors of the program, studio guests should not realize that the program is humorous, and Igor Poryvaev is a fictional character.
First invitee
Naturally, now all the stars are aware of what is really waiting for them on the show, but there were also pioneers. One of them was Dmitry Nagiyev. It was he who was sure that he had come for an interview with a journalist from Australia.
The journalist seemed strange to Dmitry. For some reason, he constantly opened his suitcase and poked around in it. Something constantly fell out of his hands from him, he could calmly interrupt the guest, and wrote down his answers in his notebook not with a normal pen, but with a brown pencil.
Dmitry was slightly condescending to the eccentric journalist, who introduced himself as the leading publicist of the author’s magazine “Russian Mosaic”. Not only that, Poryvaev said that he is Melbourne's vice kickboxing champion.
Sometimes, of course, Nagiyev’s patience was in the balance of the explosion, but, in general, he kept quite calm.
A little about the program "Who is the star here"
The transfer turned out to be quite fun and unusual. Such, at first glance, a serious interview, but with a clear note of absurdity. This is a unique show, it does not have full analogues, although a similar program exists in the United States and is called "Ali J". There, the rapper with an unbalanced psyche talked on the air with the stars. The role of this abnormal was played by a comedian from Britain Sasha Baron Cohen. But then again, the transmissions are not identical, but simply similar. Many people ask the question: what is Igor Poryvaev doing now? The fact is that this image has not been used anywhere yet, but maybe we can still see it on the screen.
In general, the program cycle was filmed, in two years Igor Poryvaev took twenty-five interviews. He talked with Gennady Zyuganov, Tina Kandelaki, Alina Dzhanabaeva, Sergey Zhigunov, Roman Viktyuk, Nikita Dzhigurda and many others.
Why there will be no new broadcast releases
Further shooting the show is pointless, because immediately after the first release to all the stars it became clear that this was not a journalist from Australia. In the twenty-five episodes we shot, our stars were sincerely sure that they were giving an interview to the Australian kickboxer, but if we continue shooting the program, its format will obviously change and it will cease to be interesting to the viewer.
Who is Grigory Kulagin
Many viewers liked Igor Poryvaev. The biography of this "journalist" interested a good half of the fans of the show. We will not disappoint them.
Igor, but in fact Grigory Kulagin was born in 1977 in Kolomna. By the way, Kulagin is also not a real surname, but a creative pseudonym. According to Grisha’s passport, his surname is Ermolaev. Gregory grew up in his hometown, went to kindergarten, then graduated from school number 2.
Grisha grew up a creative person, was fond of music. There were even impulses to write songs on their own.
In adolescence, together with Ivan Polishchuk, who was his best friend, organized a musical group called the “Barrier”. In certain circles, the group was successful, some even considered it a cult, and the song "Bears Gummy" for a long time sounded at rock festivals and biker rallies.
Then Grisha moved to Moscow and entered MSTU and six years later became a specialist in piston and combined engines. Gregory was comprehensively developed. Actively involved in sports such as volleyball, figure skating and karate.
While still a student, he began to earn extra money on M-Radio. Then he switched to the radio "Youth". But he was dismissed from this radio station in 2000 due to a conflict with the leadership.
Grisha migrated to MTV as a News correspondent. From 2005 to 2008, Kulagin lived, worked and studied in Malaysia. He studied the latest developments in video surveillance systems. Also interested in firearms. Plus, Grisha now has a master's degree in psychology from the University of Malaysia. In addition, Gregory is interested in martial arts.
Since 2008, the man headed the television project "Fiction Fiction", and he himself leads it. In addition, Grigory Kulagin has his own business. His company develops and installs security systems.
That's who Igor Poryvaev really is. In fact, a foreign journalist turned out to be a fairly successful, self-sufficient and comprehensively developed young man who was able to fully realize himself not only on radio and TV, but also copes well with his own business.
