After the arrows of criticism from the musicians, the Lavrinovich brothers also spoke. On Thursday night, George and Erica again addressed their supporters and people who are following the situation. Once again they explained why they reacted in this way and what they wanted to point out.
“We understand what is too loud here and how uncomfortable you feel. We understand how inconvenient this is for the Lavrinovich family and we are sincerely disappointed by it. Believe me, we don’t feel comfortable either, but for some reason we are not talking about victims of sexual and other violence: women. This is extremely important to us, ”said musician J. Didžiulis in the video.
E. Jennings said that up to a third of women in Lithuania suffer sexual or physical violence. The couple explained that they are talking about hundreds of thousands of women who do not dare to speak about this topic.
“Our problem is not with the Lavrinovich brothers. The problem is with Telia, who has stated that she firmly believes in social responsibility, shows awareness, but has failed to show sensitivity on this issue. People say that there are heroes here. I am sure that they can be good bees, It may be, but for a certain segment, for a certain part of the people, it is painful because it sends a signal that nobody cares, that nobody takes violence against women seriously ”, explained the musician.
Erica assured that for women to dare to speak out about uncomfortable topics related to violence, they need to feel heard and noticed. The couple also claim that approximately half of the Lithuanian population believes that “when a case of sexual or other violence occurs, it is the women’s fault.”
“We need to change our minds to make it easier for girls to talk. <...> It is our duty to make them a little more comfortable. Many have written that Huge needs popularity. The question is, do we need this popularity? Will help us? We do a “bear service,” Jurgis feared. – His (Lavrinovičiai – aut. Past.) Reputation, history has such a hook. They need to act responsibly for this. I think if they worked in this area, maybe something could happen. The point is that they have to understand that for some they are heroes. For some, that heroism has some additional history. “
Call to sue
We remind you that only in the case of this scandal, the news portal tv3.lt got in touch with the famous basketball players, Christoph admitted that the situation is not pleasant, but tries to ignore the opinion of the artists.
“We react well, we are used to it, Jurgis is not doing this for the first time. It’s his business, maybe he’s angry with us because we’re taller, ”the basketball player laughed.
The man wondered why people behave like this: “I take care of my life, my family. Everyone has to have their own life and take care of it, if those things are very important to them, then let them take care of it. It’s neither hot nor cold for me. “
It is true that when asked if Christoph had to interact with the artist family, he admitted that he sees George and Erika quite often: “Our children have been studying in the same class for six years. This year the children have moved to different classes, I always greet their family, I am an educated person.
A little later, Krzysztof Lavrinovich admitted that he was thinking about a proposal to take the Great Family to court.
“We have not made up our minds about this yet, we are all convinced to take the Great One to court.” The lawyers want to prevent this story from ending forever and prevent it from happening again, “said the man.
The basketball player had a hard time collecting the words: “It is discrimination, I see how my family is going and how difficult it is for them. On the one hand, I don’t want their children to suffer so much because I know that if we go to court, the Giants can also be condemned. And children are not guilty, I do not want to see tears from them or my children. “
“Time has passed, the situation is improving, but we are still deciding whether to go to court. Everyone invites us, they support us, he has helped our family a lot, I am very grateful for that ”, Christoph thanked those who sincerely supported him.
This is not the first time that in 2013 they move from Bitė to Telia, probably now they move from Telia to Bitė. It was really unpleasant at first, but this time I try to ignore it. Sure, you don’t want those scandals, but it’s the way it is. I don’t want to criticize anything, it’s his life and the most important thing for me is my family, whom I love and respect. “
Telia stopped the campaign and famous people also spoke
Telia announced today that it is suspending the new campaign with the Lavrinovich brothers.
This sparked new discussions on social media, including familiar faces.
The designer Aleksandras Pogrebnojus recalled the scandal he had to face and shared the opinion that the Lavrinovičius brothers E. Jennings and J. Didžiulis should not be judged, only for their achievements in the world of sport.
“I am very surprised and shocked by this whole story. It turns out that no one in life can make mistakes, despite the fact that the brothers redeemed them with their flesh and their own blood 20 years ago, and then they sweated and did not skimp on glorifying Lithuania …
You may count how many victories they achieved and how many injuries they sustained during those 20 years. And Jurgis Didžiulis and Erika Dženings, apparently, did not make any mistakes in their lives … And what did you, Jurgi, do for Lithuania, in shiny shorts after the Eurovision stage? … You, true angels, have the right to judge, to decide, who is to blame and who is not.
I remember well the situation of my big scandal, at the same time I had a project with Kaunas “Žalgiris”, but they didn’t stop it, and they didn’t erase everything at once, they just told us to wait until the situation cleared up, and a few months later we started with the new Kaunas. “Let’s not be fair, peristrachovčiks and shit … Let’s be in Žalgiris!” – wrote A. Pogrebnojus on Facebook to intelligence.
Journalist Fausta Marija Leščiauskaitė also shared her thoughts on the same social network. According to her, what is happening in Lithuania now is reminiscent of a judicial lynching.
“It is a pity that Telia stops advertising with Lavrinovich. Oh, and the public concern is twofold for me.
People who have served a sentence imposed by a court without having committed repeated harmful conduct have the right to be part of society. Especially when society willingly accepts the charity of such people and calls the achievements of sport “our achievements.” This is a lynching court, and that suits me perhaps in Iran, but not in Lithuania.
For the same people, the criminal, the thief, the drug addict Floyd, who was already close to the saint, was worthy of being seen as an equal man, it was worth going to the parades for that, but Lavrinovich cannot even make money in the advertising industry, even if you came up with it on your own.
Rape is a terrible thing, there is no reason or justification for rape, ever. But we are a state governed by the rule of law. And it is the rehabilitation and integration of lost people that is an important issue now: are you angry that someone has integrated?
I watch from the sidelines as people judge. Drug addicts, adulterers, panyans, gossipers. And they have no idea of looking in the mirror. Well, no way.
How convenient, ”he said.
