In recent months, the action of the three girls-members of the Pussi Riot group has made a splash in the country and actually split the society into two parts - into those who protect the girls and see gross violations in the course of their court case and those who wish the members of the group severe punishment. One of the most popular Russian pop singers, Elena Vaenga, also expressed her opinion on this matter, and she did it in such a way that for a couple of days it became incredibly discussed on Twitter and social networks.
Almost no one was left indifferent to the Pussi Riot case. A huge part of Orthodox people severely condemned the hooligan trick of the girls, who, in their opinion, outraged the faith and church foundations. However, the case caused a public outcry around the world, and the girls received support from the heads of state and foreign pop stars, such as Denny de Vito, Madonna, Sting and many others. Of course, Russian cultural figures did not stand aside either.
On August 2, on the forum of her website, Elena Vaenga decided to express her opinion on the situation around the girls. Her message was expressive not only in content, but also in form - it was completely typed in capital letters and contained a huge number of spelling, speech and punctuation errors. In particular, she was interested in why the girls from Pussi Riot did not go "to the machet", in addition, she told everyone that she was "not Jesus Christ" and "she cannot forgive everyone and everything." Roughly speaking about the accused, the singer called them "rubbish" and "goats", moreover, she added a large number of exclamation marks, apparently trying to convey her emotions as vividly as possible. One of the first to post a screenshot on Twitter was Ksenia Sobchak. Within a few hours, the tags #ElenaVaenga, #Vaenga and #michet were included in the list of the most popular in the Russian-speaking segment of Twitter.
Interestingly, later Elena apologized for the mistake in the word "mosque", but she brought them to the "Muslim brothers". Screenshots of the singer's posts instantly scattered across the Internet, glorifying the singer in a not very pleasant light. Moreover, most of the dissatisfied spoke precisely about Elena's inability to correctly express her thoughts, rather than about her attitude to the Pussi Riot trick.
However, there were those who warmly supported Elena's position - for example, the famous comedian Mikhail Zadornov on his VKontakte page said that he was delighted with the courage of this woman and would now like to meet her personally.
Be that as it may, the erroneous spelling of the word "machet" will now be associated with the name of the popular singer for a long time.
