В Лондон теперь он уж точно не уедет.

June marks the start of the concert season for artists at resorts. Promoters have informed the media about which stars will earn the most this summer. Evgeny Morozov, head of the company 'Ru-concert', noted that there are almost no sold-out shows nowadays. The maximum venue occupancy is 80%, and that is only in central regions. Regional audiences complain about expensive tickets. However, even in a crisis, there are leaders. A ticket for Grigory Leps' concert costs from 5 million rubles (about €55,000). Philip Kirkorov has 'returned to the touring race' after a long hiatus. His fee is 5–6 million rubles. According to Morozov, Kirkorov and Leps top the list of the richest Russian stars, as they have successfully invested in business and real estate. Among female singers, the highest-paid is Nadezhda Kadysheva. Her fee in remote regions can reach up to 20 million rubles. Artists over 50 years old draw crowds more reliably than the youth, which is why promoters are eager to book Leonid Agutin, the group 'Ruki Vverh!', Stas Mihailov, and Lolita. Among the youth, the leader is 20-year-old Vanya Dmitrienko — his fee ranges from 5 to 9 million rubles. Xolidayboy is in second place, and Akmal is third. Each of the top 5 young performers has a fee starting from 2 million rubles. Riding the wave of nostalgia, stars from the 90s are earning well. Tatyana Bulanova earns up to 6 million rubles in some cities. Viktor Saltykov earns 1.5 million, while his ex-wife Irina Saltykova earns 1.2 million. Katya Lel earns from 700,000 rubles, and singer Shura earns from 800,000. At the same time, the group 'A-Studio', according to Morozov, no longer gathers large crowds. Polina Gagarina needs new hits to regain popularity — she is currently more focused on her personal life.
