Gergiev: Still Sucking Up To Putin
Valery Gergiev (pictured), the Putin-slavering Russian conductor who would certainly make any list of The Lowest of the Low, has given a new interview, addressing the protesters who show up at his concerts: “People come to hear music, not to hear shouting. And to go on stage and scare Netrebko, how can the Met let this happen? If someone were to shout an anti-American slogan on the stage of the Mariinsky, it would be my fault.†The conductor then goes on to talk about Ukraine and Crimea.
