Honored Artist of Russia Mikhail Shufutinsky admitted that he no longer gets behind the wheel. The 78-year-old chansonnier told about this in the program "You won't believe it!".
The performer of the hit "The Third of September" noted that he had never driven a car after his wedding with his wife Svetlana Urazova, who is almost 30 years younger than him. For a while he trusted his wife to manage his sports car, but then hired a personal driver.
The artist explained the reason simply: "It's dangerous. I'm not enough left, I need to be protected."
In September 2025, it was reported that Shufutinsky received Russian citizenship. According to the Telegram channel Shot, before that the singer lived in the country on a residence permit, remaining a US citizen. But after the start of SMO, he decided not to return to the States and stayed in Moscow.

Zelensky said that he had decided on the geography of retaliatory strikes against Russia.
