Kirkorov revealed the name of the woman who raised him to be the "king of pop"

Singer Philipp Kirkorov made an unexpected confession about his 40-year friendship with Larisa Dolina. According to the musician, he "still feels shy" when meeting the performer and continues to idolize her. He first saw the singer when he was a 15-year-old teenager. Kirkorov shared this during the artist's creative evening at the "New Wave" festival.

"Larisa Alexandrovna warmed me, taught me a lot. I traveled with her to all cities, observed rehearsals, learned mastery," he shared.

There was a touching moment in their relationship when young Kirkorov in the mid-80s managed to obtain scarce jeans for the already famous pop star. At that time, there were more opportunities in Bulgaria, and the young singer accomplished the impossible - he found fashionable jeans for Dolina. Since then, their friendship has only strengthened. The performer is one of the few who did not turn away from Kirkorov even during difficult periods of his life.
