In the same year Victoria participated in the TV project Dancing with the Stars. At first she was paired with Artem Mikhalkov, a son of the famous Russian film director Nikita Mikhalkov. However, the man almost immediately refused to dance with her, because of girl’s weight. And the strongest man in Russia, Bruce Khlebnikov, became her partner.
At one of the concerts reporters noticed that Victoria’s hand was decorated with thin red thread. And it was found out that the singer studied Kabbalah (esoteric method and school of thought that originated in Judaism).
