On June 26, a 2-hour musical comedy dedicated to the international Eurovision song contest was released on the Netflix multimedia platform, Eurovision Music Competition: History of Fire Saga. In the film, directed by Will Ferrell, who is known as the creator of such films as “Love without Obligations”, “Hello, Dad, New Year” and “Strippers”, as well as the producer of the series about the media industry “Heirs”, we are talking about a middle-aged group Icelander Lars Ericsson and his girlfriend Sigrit Eriksdotir. Since childhood, the main character, who also plays Ferrell, wants to perform at Eurovision, but he and his girlfriend have to be content with performances in a local pub, where visitors order the same song “Jaja Ding Dong”. One day, the elves whom Sigrit asks to fulfill the long-held dream of an already elderly Lars respond, and suddenly Fire Saga gets a chance to participate in the competition.

The film about Eurovision was not left unattended by the participant of the song contest Philip Kirkorov. A few hours ago, the 53-year-old singer, who arranged a family viewing of the musical comedy, and his children – Martin and Alla-Victoria – noticed that the film used footage, which captured the father of the artist – Bedros Kirkorov. 88-year-old singer, along with aunt Filipp Bedrosovich Marie, was actively ill on the platform of Russian fans who spoke at last year’s Eurovision Sergey Lazarev. In his microblog on Instagram, the king of Russian pop music published a video in which his heirs jump with delight when they recognize their grandfather on the screen. “Our grandfather is shown here and there!” It turns out in the movie “Eurovision Song Contest. The Story of fire saga “@netflixfilm there are shots with @bedroskirkorov and @ marik46 The moment with my grandfather, Aunt Marie didn’t escape the attentive look of the children,” wrote Philipp Kirkorov in his microblog (spelling and punctuation of the author are unchanged– Prim.ed.).

It is noteworthy that the day before, Philip Kirkorov shared another interesting fact about the film “Eurovision Music Competition: History of Fire Saga”. It turns out that the English actor Dan Stevens, who played in the comedy of Alexander Lemtov, carefully studied the style and manners of Philip Bedrosovich before filming, which the 37-year-old movie star likes to tell in her numerous interviews. Flattered, Kirkorov invited the artist to join the fans at the next Eurovision Song Contest and also invited him to his concert.

We add that Philip Kirkorov first performed at Eurovision in 1995. The artist represented Russia at a show in Ireland and performed with a song in Russian “Lullaby to the Volcano”. In his microblog on Instagram, the star of the Russian pop scene showed what the performance in Dublin looked like. Unfortunately, Kirkorov’s performance was not successful then, and the song took only 17th place. In the exclusive documentary project “Around TV”, “The Color of Mood,” the king of the domestic pop scene said that in the 90s the rules of the contest were completely different, and the appearance of the representative of Russia on the stage of the show was unusual and outlandish for the Western audience. The singer also noted the unprecedented activity of spectators from Scandinavia, who always supported performers from the northern states. “When I went to Eurovision, I had to sing in Russian, with a live orchestra. No one supported Russia, no one voted for Russia. And no matter how I sang, even brilliantly, all this Scandinavia voted for each other and that’s all! ” – admitted the artist.
