Singer Ekaterina Semenova, in an interview with NEWS.ru, said that Nadezhda Kadysheva's young audience comes to her concerts “for entertainment”.
“Yes (like a “krinzhatinka”). I don't want to offend anyone, but I'm still a kind of professional artist. And I can evaluate it quite objectively, because first of all I'm a spectator,” the artist shares.
Semenova recalls an incident when she felt uncomfortable because her dress was chosen inappropriately at a concert. Then, to support the female artist, young colleagues said that she always had the “gentleness of an eccentric”.
“I said, “Now you have completely finished me!” If I were a weirdo I wouldn't know what to say about girls my age. Yes, people are trying to be on top. Even though it's low, it's still at the top,” the singer noted.
In April 2025, kp.ru reported that Kadysheva had become the highest-paid Russian star. Her song “Venochek” received a new wave of popularity among young audiences, so teenagers and students began to attend her concerts in large numbers.
