Nobody needs us: the comedian regretted her escape from Russia

She admitted that Russian comedians work hard and try hard, but at the same time, it should be noted that they gather full houses, among other things, because "there is a huge request."

"Many people don't care about us in terms of content consumption... No one needs us, there's no way to find the realization that I'm so looking forward to, looking for it, and it's just a path to nowhere, a path to being lost, hopelessness and oblivion," Lolaeva said, noting that such thoughts come to her mind from time to time.

The actress also added that there is not enough financial stability when you are sure that you will help your relatives, now this confidence is lost.
