Malakhov's stories are leaving Channel One. Andrei Malakhov gave a frank interview: about leaving Channel One, a child and a new job Andrei Malazov, latest news: Malakhov is losing ratings
Andrei Malakhov explained the reasons for his departure from the country's main television channel. The former presenter of Channel One said that he was tired of “reading from a piece of paper” and had long since grown up producing his own show.

According to him, he is tired of being a “lead in the ear” and has long had something to say to the audience without prompting.
"It's like family life“At first there was love, then it grew into a habit, and at some point it was a marriage of convenience,” he said frankly in an interview with the Kommersant newspaper.
Therefore, the TV presenter wanted to take the initiative into his own hands. “I want to grow, to become a producer, a person who makes decisions, including determining what my program should be about, and not giving up my whole life and looking like a puppy into the eyes of people changing during this time. The TV season is over, I decided “that you need to close this door and try yourself in a new capacity in a new place,” he continued.
At the same time, Malakhov did not comment on the rumors that main reason His departure resulted in a conflict with producer Natalya Nikonova. She came up with “Let Them Talk,” and then went to VGTRK for 9 years and returned to “First” only this year.
“I have always believed that you need to be consistent in love and dislike. It’s unusual for me to change my set of beliefs as if on cue magic wand. “I’ll end the story here,” he said.
The presenter assured that the separation from “First” did not in any way affect his relationship with its leader Konstantin Ernst. Like, he realized that Andrey, due to life circumstances (the presenter’s first child will be born in November), would not be able to devote much time to the project and let him go in peace.
However, Malakhov did not hide the fact that he sent the application by Russian Post, and sent his representative to negotiate with Ernst about extending his contract.
The TV presenter entered into a new cooperation agreement with the Rossiya TV channel. He will head “Live Broadcast”, which was previously managed by Boris Korchevnikov.
By the way, the latter, in a conversation with Komsomolskaya Pravda, said that the era of his “Live broadcast” was over. “The program that will be released in its place will be different. But it will retain everything that made Live Broadcast successful and loved by viewers,” he noted.
Malakhov himself confirmed that part of the “Let Them Talk” team moved with him to the second channel in the country. Thus, new broadcasts will be produced together with Alexander Mitroshenkov, who previously also made “The Big Wash”. But even here, the final word will remain with Malakhov.
“My wife calls me a boss baby. It is clear that television is a team story, but the final word belongs to the producer,” he concluded.
With his former colleagues, the TV presenter has already published open letter.
Passions never cease to boil around the name of the popular TV presenter Andrei Malakhov. After information about his departure from Channel One appeared more than a week ago, he became one of the most talked about people in Russia. There are rumors in television circles that the 45-year-old presenter has already written a letter of resignation. Now Malakhov is on a yacht with friends in Italy, but he has already decided how his television career will develop in the future.
In light of recent events and discussions about who the popular presenter will pass the baton to, or rather the microphone from the studio of the “Let Them Talk” program, everyone wanted to get their “minute of fame.” Presenter and songwriter Katya Gordon decided to dedicate poetry to Malakhov, and bloggers sing odes to him on the YouTube video hosting site.
Rumor has it that the administration of the First decided to increase its popularity, as well as to attract attention to the program “Let Them Talk,” the shine of which has faded a little. So, yesterday, the starting program of the new season of the scandalous and “painful” show was supposed to be aired. The first theme should have been the symbolic words: “Farewell, Andrey!” But the program was canceled because Malakhov himself refused to appear in the studio and return from vacation, which, by the way, will end for him today or tomorrow.
The showman himself remained silent for a long time and did not give any comments about his departure from the channel. But he still spoke. The presenter admitted that he was on a yacht with friends, and also that he had already made his decision. The truth is, which one keeps the intrigue. Apparently, he had been planning to leave the channel for a long time, but wanted to decide this after his vacation. Among the channels for which he can go to work is “Russia 1,” but the press service of the media group, which includes this channel, did not confirm this information.
The Let Them Talk program will truly change its face. Instead of Andrei Nikolaevich, it will be hosted by 31-year-old Dmitry Borisov, who previously hosted “Evening News” and “Vremya”. He has already been confirmed in this position. Borisov did not comment for a long time and did not admit that he would host a scandalous talk show, but now the issue has already been resolved.
Of course, it will not be difficult for him to present a current program, since politics is also added to it, he already has enough journalistic experience. Besides him, the role of host of “Let Them Talk” was attributed to another showman - Dmitry Shepelev, the widower of the late singer Zhanna Friske. But the latter denied these rumors and said that he already has his own program, which he will continue to host.
The reasons for Malakhov’s departure from the Ostankino studio have also become overgrown not just with rumors, but with real legends. Previously, the reason was cited as a conflict between the presenter and the creators of the program, in particular, producer Natalya Nikonova. She wanted to change the format of the show and place more emphasis on the political situation, which the journalist did not like. Another version says that Andrei Nikolaevich had a conflict with the channel’s management. Perhaps he wanted to be the author and presenter of new projects, but he was not allowed to film them at the First studio. The general director of the channel, Konstantin Ernst, did not comment on this matter.
The most interesting version was that Malakhov’s wife, publisher Natalya Shkuleva, was expecting a child, so the TV presenter asked for “maternity” leave, but he was not given it on the channel and was asked to choose between the profession of a TV presenter and a baby sitter. Then, offended, he decided to write a letter of resignation.
On Channel One they were even surprised by such information, since no one there knew about interesting position presenter's wife. The news about this was only spread yesterday by resources belonging to the presenter’s father-in-law, Viktor Shkulev. But does it have anything to do with the dismissal of channel star Malakhov? Most likely no. Women usually go on maternity leave, not men.
Unless his wife’s pregnancy became an indirect reason for the showman’s departure from his previous job. In connection with the future addition to the family, Malakhov could decide to “earn extra money” and agree to host some well-paid show on another channel. But then why the fuss? This is probably additional PR that benefits both parties. Firstly, to the First, who will release today or tomorrow new release“Let them talk,” secondly, to the presenter, attention to whom began to grow “like mushrooms after rain.”
However, not everyone is worried about the fate of Malakhov and now not his show. Many users are already tired of him with his departure and transition. Some say that he remained at the level of his previous show " Big Wash" and continues to wash " dirty laundry» everyday human life. That’s why they don’t want to see Malakhov himself or his project on air anymore.
Comedian and showman Maxim Galkin did not remain on the sidelines of discussing the departure of his colleague. In his characteristic ironic form, he recorded a video message to Malakhov and to those who are discussing his departure from Ostankino. The video can be viewed on the Diva’s husband’s Instagram page.
In shorts and a T-shirt, with a garden shovel in his hands, Maxim Galkin in a humorous manner invites host Malakhov to quickly make a choice in order to put an end to the constant news, speculation and rumors about his scandal with the TV channel. He said that this situation is already “sick and tired” and let Malakhov stop intriguing everyone, because if they paid more money– then let him switch to another channel. At the end of the video, Galkin said that in three years his colleague could return back to First.
A similar situation happened with the comedian himself. He switched to work from Channel One to Rossiya 1, which was called a “failure,” but the showman himself upset his ill-wishers and boasted that he built an entire castle for his “failure,” in the garden of which he now grows flowers. Looks like this isn't the end yet.
The next topic for discussion on the talk show “Let Them Talk” a couple of weeks ago was Andrei Malakhov himself. Which is not surprising. IN Lately that's all they talk about: the presenter wrote a letter of resignation and left Channel One, will soon appear on Rossiya 1, is going on maternity leave. I felt somehow worried about Andrey.
“I am still alive,” Malakhov met me on the threshold of his own apartment.
Telegrams with this phrase (“I’m still alive” translated into Russian) were sent to his friends by the Japanese conceptual artist On Kawara. Andrei purchased one of them at an auction and gave it to his wife Natasha. The telegram is dated: the day and year of her birth.

– Andrey, your open letter about leaving Channel One was published in StarHit magazine. But I don’t even believe my eyes anymore. Tell me personally: are you really not coming back?
- Yes! You can take a lie detector test. 25 years of my life devoted to Channel One are over, and I am moving forward.
– Still, you have: ratings, fame, money... What was missing?
- Everything was enough. But at some point a crisis came.
– The same one, middle-aged?
- To a mild degree. Yes, I turned 45 in January. And then before the birthday there was a crisis of the genre in absolutely everything. Starting with programs that began to seem secondary: this was already in The Simpsons, and ending with complete dissatisfaction with their position. I have always been submissive. A human soldier following orders. And I wanted independence. I looked at my colleagues: they became producers of their programs and began to make decisions themselves. And suddenly the understanding came: Life is going, and you need to grow, get out of the tight confines.
Capricorns are like that. They climb, they try, and then they send everyone off and go climb somewhere else.
– In addition to understanding, you also need to find the strength within yourself to move away from your comfort zone?
– Sometimes there is no other option. Some karmic stories were added to the understanding. On April 25 at 18:45 they called me and told me that we were changing the studio and had to leave Ostankino. And Ostankino is my second home. It has its own aura and energy. Our team also never changed the studio. This was a place of power. We came in and understood what needed to be done. I was left without a home and a familiar atmosphere. And when I saw a new room a thousand meters away from our backstage two hundred, I realized that this was probably the point. I simply can’t handle a studio of this size.
- This is deceit, of course.
- Maybe. But when you have the end of the season, a new location for filming, you physically cannot do anything wrong, you begin to engage in soul-searching, unnecessary self-destruction. You think that you and the presenter are so-so, and nothing works out, and your time gone... And then they sent me a video of how the “Let Them Talk” studio was being dismantled. I don’t know what to compare what I felt with. Probably, if they brought me to the morgue and showed how they dissect a person close to you... And just like that - drop by drop - they burned out everything that was dear, to which I was mentally attached. Then you realize that you have been building something for so many years and cannot afford to disappear like that. You understand that it has arrived new stage. You must close this door.
Antenna editor-in-chief Elena Krasnikova and StarHit editor-in-chief Andrey Malakhov
- With what force?
- Without slamming in any way. Namely, close it with complete gratitude in your soul. With respect and great warmth to the people with whom I worked. This is the most important thing - to learn to be grateful. When you give warmth and kindness to people, it always comes back in one form or another. This is my main internal motto – and in my work as well. I honestly brought the season to the end. And - again a coincidence - they called me from the Russia 1 channel and offered me to become the producer of my own program. A person who will decide for himself what to do, how to conduct and what topics to cover.
- That's all? So I decided, spat and went?
– Natasha recently read a book about Capricorns. She said that people of this sign are exactly like this: they crawl and crawl for a long time, climb, try, break their nails, and then suddenly they send everyone away and go climb to another place.
Although, of course, it would be nice to retire with one entry in your employment record. Even now I was one of the dinosaurs left on the First.
– Leonid Arkadyevich Yakubovich feels good in the role of a dinosaur.
- He's special. Leonid Arkadyevich writes programs on Sundays, when there is no one in the television center. Starts at 8 am, works through eight programs. If there is a delay of more than 15 minutes, he gets up and leaves. Thus, he visits the empty Ostankino once every two months and the rest of the time he does not see or hear anyone. And then, he doesn’t fight for themes, doesn’t catch heroes...
-...they themselves come with jars and pies...
- That's it, we have different stories A little.
On the wall is a work by British artist Julian Opie
“I remember the story about how you quit Good Morning.” And caring colleagues collected your things in boxes and put them in front of the door. Since then I haven’t brought anything extra to work. So now there are no boxes at all?
– All the TEFI figurines remain in Ostankino. And over there, in the next room, there are two boxes. But I took them out myself so that they wouldn’t expose me.
-Can I have a look? It’s just interesting what a person accumulates over 25 years of work.
“Let’s go...” Andrey opens the box and shows what’s inside. – Funny New Year cards. People just send them knowing that I collect themed stamps redeemed on December 31st, for example.
Book by Irina Ponarovskaya. I want to do an interview with her; she hasn’t talked about herself for many years. And thus I visualize the desire.
ABOUT! An old cassette from “The Jerry Springer Show” (the American “grandfather” of “Let Them Talk”). It was wildly popular when I was studying in America. Prayer book. A device for measuring pressure.
Everything acquired through backbreaking labor: the contents of a box from Ostankino
- Such a daddy of vanity.
- Yes Yes. Show it to your children and grandchildren.
What else? The photographs were clearly taken at work. Magazine published during the premiere of “The Big Wash”, 2001. And look at the headline: “Andrei Malakhov is becoming more serious.” And finally it became, apparently.

- It’s kind of sad...
- So, what... In the next world, this won’t be needed either.
– No, no, no, stop, we’re talking about a new life. Your departure is news number one. And there are a lot of rumors on the Internet. Can you comment to close this topic once and for all?
– You are repeating the path of Maxim Galkin, who unsuccessfully went to “Russia”... This is not my statement. People are exaggerating.
- Hm. The big debate here is, you know, how unfortunate. Maxim Galkin went so far as to build himself a huge castle in Gryazi, give birth to children in his free time from broadcasting, educate himself, and enjoy life. He hosted the top-rated “Dancing with the Stars” for six years. And he returned in the prime of his life.
And let me remind you: management learned about Maxim Galkin’s departure from his own press conference in live. I, as a team member, gave two months’ notice about leaving. IN farewell letter I even wrote that part of Channel One’s DNA flows in my blood...
It’s a big debate, do you know how unsuccessfully Maxim Galkin went to “Russia”
- In a letter?
- Yes, I wanted to explain myself this way. When you say something, it may not always be heard. And the letter... You can re-read it.
– Rumor number two: the departure was provoked by Dmitry Shepelev, who was allegedly brought in to replace you.
- Oh no. I'm not a child and I know my worth.
– They started trying Dmitry Borisov as the host of “Let Them Talk”, who is now being shown on air.
– By that time, my application had been on the channel for a month. It is clear that you need to look for someone.

– Are you going on maternity leave?!
– Natasha will soon become a mother. And I actually had the idea of taking a little vacation. But in the schedule in which I worked for the last two months, I would not have had time to meet my wife from the maternity hospital.
– That is, the reason for leaving is, after all, a conflict with the new producer of “Let Them Talk” Natalya Nikonova.
- Can I remain silent...
– Andrey, what will the program you are producing be like? And I hope you're not planning on sitting behind the scenes!
– Title “Andrey Malakhov. Live". And this is the same Andrei Malakhov in the frame that everyone is used to, just with more freedom of action, a greater understanding of what the viewer needs.

– Do you think the audience of “Let Them Talk” will leave behind you? Or will there be another? In general, who are you working for?
– Sometimes some programs are launched in such a way that even schoolchildren begin to discuss them primary classes. It is impossible to predict who will turn on the TV today or who will watch it on the Internet today. Everyone has set-top boxes, delayed viewing, now no one needs to rush to a certain time so as not to miss something important. But what will always work is word of mouth: have you seen it? did you hear? what do you think? I don’t believe it when people say that they haven’t heard anything about Dana Borisova or Diana Shurygina. We heard. And they know for sure that they heard it from me. It is important to feel the mood that will hook a person right now.
I don’t believe it when people say that they haven’t heard anything about Diana Shurygina or Dana Borisova. We heard. From me
– Can you give an example of which of your colleagues feels this?
Lena Letuchaya felt the time (the presenter, by the way, was the editor of the “Let Them Talk”) program. Today she is a bigger star than many leading national channels. Because the content that Lena offered hit the nerves and mood of the audience. After all, everyone walks around the cafe. And many are unhappy with the quality of food or service. So, the fight for consumer rights made her name a brand. By analogy with contemporary art This is a picture that should hook you at a certain moment. Then you can grow out of it. But if the work doesn’t immediately make you think, it means it’s not your art or the artist is not able to touch on anything.
– What touches you in paintings? Tell.
Let's say I have a work by Serge Golovach. You look and think that this is a photo from the late 20s. Some kind of parade. And on foreground for some reason Mayakovsky. But in fact it is May 1, 2006 in St. Petersburg. And from work you feel like nothing really changes around you. And people are the same. And even Mayakovsky is walking around St. Petersburg somewhere. It's about the idea. Sometimes the very name of the artist can touch you. You were amazed by some of his masterpieces at one time, but you cannot buy it. And you can afford a piece of what the master had a hand in.
– I saw Glazunov on the wall...
- Yes. I was 12 years old. We went to Ilya Glazunov's exhibition at Manege. It was pouring rain and there was a huge queue. And we are in it together with my Aunt Ira. She's wearing a very beautiful soft blue jacket and a hat... She just returned from France. And I! I'm 12 years old and I'm in love with her. And so we go inside and see this “Russian beauty”. I was stunned... And those drawings on the wall that you saw, they take me back to childhood. Everything in them is covered with snow, like in Apatity. The old woman is wandering. And I see my mother, she is going to the temple...
– Which construction did you invest in?
“My dad started the construction. Then, Kingdom of Heaven, he was gone. It was necessary to continue my father's work. Two years ago we did beautiful road to the temple. Soon, if possible, we will erect a monument to Pushkin by Tsereteli in Apatity.

"I want to grow"
Andrei Malakhov explained his departure from Channel One
TV presenter Andrei Malakhov said that his departure from Channel One was due to the desire for professional growth. He stated this in an interview with the Kommersant newspaper.
“I want to grow, to become a producer, a person who makes decisions, including determining what my program should be about, and not giving up my whole life and looking like a puppy into the eyes of people changing during this time. The TV season ended, I decided that I needed to close this door and try myself in a new capacity in a new place,” Malakhov said. When asked about the reasons for the conflict with Channel One producer Natalya Nikonova, Malakhov did not answer. “Can I leave this without comment? I have always believed that one must be consistent in love and dislike. It’s unusual for me to change my set of beliefs as if by magic. “I’ll end the story here,” he said.
Malakhov said that he came to television as a student. "I was fascinated by it big world and started by running for coffee during the day and going to the stall for vodka for television legends at night. And although you have become a popular TV presenter, you still work with the same people who treat you like the son of the regiment,” the presenter explained. He added that his colleagues, who came to television much later, are already managing their own projects. “And you still have the same old status. You’re expected to be a talk-on host, but you already have something to talk about with your viewers,” he added.
In the publication StarHit, of which Malakhov is the editor-in-chief, he also published an open letter to Konstantin Ernst and the people with whom he worked. In it, the TV presenter said goodbye to his colleagues and personally thanked many of them. “Dear Konstantin Lvovich! 45 years is an important milestone in a man’s life, 25 of which I gave to you and Channel One. These years have become part of my DNA and I remember every minute you dedicated to me. Thank you so much for everything you did, for the experience you shared with me, for amazing trip along the television road of life that we walked together,” wrote Malakhov, addressing the general director of Channel One.
Promo clip new program Malakhov on the Russia 1 channel, called “Hello, Andrey!”, published on the StarHit channel on YouTube.
Let us remind you that on July 31, the media reported that TV presenter Andrei Malakhov was moving from Channel One to VGTRK. According to the BBC Russian Service, the transition could be due to the fact that the channel’s management decided to add to its political talk shows topics, although previously the program specialized in discussing the social agenda and show business. The initiator of the change in agenda was producer Natalya Nikonova, who has been working on the program since May.
(45) is inevitably associated throughout the country with the scandalous program “Let Them Talk” - together with the studio, he finds out where the Rusfond money went, who is to blame for the rape (18) and (34) on a lie detector test. But recently it became known that “Let Them Talk” may be left without a star presenter. According to rumors, after 25 years of work (12 of them at “Let Them Talk”), Andrei decided to leave Channel One. Let's figure out what happened!
It all started with a Twitter post by Current Time correspondent Yegor Maksimov. “Wow, they say VGTRK bought Malakhov. in any case, his studio in Ostankino was occupied by Shepelev with new transmission(this is a fact),” the journalist wrote. And a little later, the editor-in-chief of the R-Sport agency, Vasily Konov, joined him: “This is a fact and the main transfer sensation of the television off-season. There’s a lot of talk about this in TV circles.”
And so, the news was picked up by the presenters news agencies. For example, RBC reported that the TV presenter did not work well with the new producer of “Let Them Talk,” whom First General Director Konstantin Ernst (56) appointed to raise the show’s ratings. Andrey demanded the return of the previous producer, he was refused, and he decided to move to another channel. According to RBC, from the fall Andrei Malakhov will work on the Rossiya 1 channel (VGTRK holding company) in the Live Broadcast program (now hosted by Boris Korchevnikov (35), but he plans to focus on the position general director channel "Spas"). Part of the team will also follow Andrei, so Channel One, if the information is confirmed, will have to conduct a rather large casting.
In any case, neither the leadership of the First nor Andrei Malakhov has yet commented on the rumors, and VGTRK refers to the vacation of the entire management team (we know nothing - we have heard nothing). Andrei himself, by the way, shared in 2014 that he had no idea what would force him to leave Channel One. He openly: “Sometimes during the recording of another program where a father raped his daughter or where ungrateful children, a week after the death of their mother, furiously divide the inheritance, you want to get up and leave. But the thought always stops me - we still help. The DNA tests that are carried out for broadcast are real. After many transfers, criminal cases were opened or reopened and the perpetrators went to prison. We are doing a good deed."
