I almost lost consciousness,

honestly.

Polunin said that,

"I don't have enough friends

and parties,

and sometimes

such things are important."

I didn't know

about his tweets.

Only when the bad press

started,

then I saw what he was doing.

He told me, "Don't worry.

Everythings good."

Well, it wasn't good.

But that's what he said.

He was clearly missing

his family.

That was our mistake.

Ukrainian-born dancer

Sergei Polunin

was given the name

"the bad boy of ballet"

after his scandalous departure

from the Royal Ballet of London.

Ladies and gentlemen...

And those watching at home...

We are excited

to bring you our newest show...

"Big Ballet"!

Our first contestant

is Sergei Polunin.

Sergei recently left London

for Moscow.

Did you know Sergei

is a real star in London?

The papers are constantly

writing about him!

From London to Moscow

especially for this show,

Sergei Polunin.

Vladimir,

your verdict, please.

- Ten.

- Thank you.

Azzari?

- Ten.

- Thank you.

- Ten.

- Thank you!

- Vladymir?

- Ten.

A perfect performance!

I see scars on your body.

These scars are not real,

so what are they for?

They are tattoos.

I get that.

But Why'd you get so many?

What's this say?

- "Dirty Money."

- Why?

I like the song.

Whose song is it?

P. Diddy.

Recently, Sergei won

the "Big Ballet" competition,

becoming a name

in his new homeland.

Sergei is loved

by the people.

He has so much going for him

as a dancer-

his jump, his charisma,

his physique.

In our modern-day ballet,

he is exceptional.

Igor showed up

at just the right time.

I always wanted Sergei to have

a person who was older

because he responds

to authority.

And in that area,

Igor is really capable.

I was watching TV,

and in a show, they said

that lgor Zelensky

had replaced me.

I was hurt.

Because until he was nine,

I was always with him.

The romance between Polunin

and Russia has lasted

for over one and a half years.

After the Moscow premiere

of "Paquita,"

the standing ovation lasts

for ten minutes.

The dancers once again

go out to bow.

- Are you serious?

- This is it.

They won't clap anymore

after this.

"SERGEI POLUNIN

AND IGOR ZELENSKY IN SPARTACUS"

Polina.

Could you cover me up, please?

Of course.

Don't, the costume

will cover it.

- Don't!

- Okay.

Polina, where's the water?

- Over there.

- Where's there? Why's it there?

All right, go.

Go get the water.

So tired.

Do you need help

with something?

No, thanks.

- Hang in there, Sergei.

- Thanks.

How nice that the laces

are only dyed on one side.

Is there water over there?

Where you left it.

Will you have time

in between to drink?

I'll go refill
