Music unites generations: MAMA on the red carpet area, an exclusive chat area for Virgis Stakėnas | Names

15 minutes For the second year in a row, it will provide readers with a unique opportunity to see the nation’s most famous stars and behind the scenes at the Jubilee Music Festival, as well as hear their hottest interviews before the awards begin.

The pandemic has radically changed the lives of many people. One of them are the representatives of the world of music, whom we will focus on today.

Therefore, this year only MAMA 2020 music award nominees and award providers will enter the red carpet, who will be able to enter Kaunas “Žalgiris” arena with only a negative COVID-19 test version.

And although it may now appear that the light at the end of the tunnel is not visible, 15 minutes The team, hoping to bring at least a little bit of positivity and distract from today’s current affairs, will try to make the two-hour non-stop broadcast a little more colorful and joyous.

And how could it be otherwise, if the legendary performer nominated in the category of “Traditional Music” at the MAMA awards ceremony, Virgis Stakėnas, is named this year’s father.

The musician, who has 30 years of experience and production, has also worked as a journalist during his career and has contributed to the creation of several magazines. For the guests at the awards, Virgis Stakėnas prepared many unexpected questions that will definitely reveal the other side of famous faces.

“In preparation for the MAMA red carpet ceremony with Virgis Stakėnas, I was impressed by how much he contributed to the knowledge of the young generation of artists, their work and the nuances of their career. Although, it is true, there was not a single nominee name that Virgis had not known.

I am very happy that, working together on this event, we knew clearly what message we wanted to send: we want to show that the division between music communities must end. As Virgis himself has said, it will become a bridge both between generations and between different musical genres.

I am convinced that the taste for music is something very personal and delicate that cannot divide people ”, says Elena Varnauskaitė, the host of the program, who will work together with V. Stakėnas in the exclusive zone.

Of course, this year’s ceremony at the largest stadium in the country will be different than usual. Subject to all security requirements, only artists who have passed the test will enter the red carpet area, and presenters will try to surprise them with a slightly different approach to music, and a number of surprises await them. Who wouldn’t want to play the legendary Virgio Stakėnas guitar?

As already announced, the most prominent artists in the country will be received by renowned representatives of the entertainment world, one of the most followed people in Lithuania, Naglis Bierancas and the extravagant Lolita Zero.

This duo was chosen not in vain: Naglis and Lolita, who have been circulating in the entertainment world for many years, personally know many nominees, so they will soon be not only jokes, but also spicy questions.
