Valentyna Khamaiko explains why she does not consider Kamenskykh and Potap patriots: I would not want them to return to Ukraine
Famous TV presenter Valentina Khamaiko frankly admitted that she would not like to see the star couple Nastia Kamenskykh and Oleksii Potapenko on the national stage after Ukraine's victory in the war. The TV star believes that artists who moved from Ukraine in the most difficult times and started building their careers elsewhere should stay there.
Khamaiko does not consider the newly minted Latin star and her producer husband to be patriots, even though they have written several tracks about Ukraine. She expressed this opinion in a comment to Lux FM.
"These people have never been patriots. Never. And as we can see, they do not compose or write patriotic songs. Even if someone tries very hard, it does not reach the population at all," the host explained when it came to stars who moved abroad during the war.
Valetnyna Khamaiko emphasized that it was at a critical moment that it became clear how sincere certain Ukrainian artists are in their love for the country. You can feel it by listening to their work.
"Frankly speaking, I wouldn't want them to come back. They called themselves people of the world, so let them stay in the world. I wanted our society to grow as it is now crystallizing on its values," the host added.
In her opinion, Jerry Heil, Ukraine's representative at the Eurovision Song Contest 2024, has transformed the most during the full-scale war. Valentyna Khamaiko believes that in recent years the young artist has revealed herself in a new way.
