Singer Rasputin refused unnecessary to her "shameful" pension in Russia

The actress Masha Rasputina once again surprised the audience. The Russian pop star admitted that she voluntarily refused the state pension, calling the assigned amount "shameful." Details are provided by <url>.

According to the singer, she was credited with only 8 thousand rubles (although from January 1, 2026, the minimum social payment is 9,424 rubles — EADaily), but Rasputin did not understand the bureaucratic intricacies.

The actress, who turned 62 this year, said that she does not need pitiful crumbs, as she continues to tour actively and feels in demand on stage for almost four decades.

"I'll earn a piece of bread for myself. Just not such a shameful pension. I will always be young!" she said.

Interestingly, the husband of the singer Viktor Zakharov receives a decent 19 thousand rubles, but Masha fundamentally does not want to be like the rest of the pensioners, preferring to remain in the status of a working star.
