Humennik's problems with music at the Olympics. What is known

The day before, Humennik was banned from performing at the Olympics to the soundtrack from "The Perfumer" due to copyright issues. In response to the injustice towards the athlete, social media users launched a hashtag, which translated into Russian sounds like "Let Peter Humennik ride under the "Perfumer". Later, Humennik's coach Veronika Daineko informed Izvestia that the figure skater would perform at the Olympics to the waltz "Onegin 1805" by Edgar Hakobyan.

Figure skating coach Tatiana Tarasova told Izvestia that Humennik successfully performed at the Olympic selection to the soundtrack of "Perfumer", and then they did not warn about possible copyright problems. She also called the situation around the performance of the Russian athlete disgusting.

Lawyer Arkady Bukh reported earlier in the day that the ban on the performance of Russian figure skater Pyotr Gumennik to the soundtrack from the film "The Perfumer" at the 2026 Olympics may be related to anti-Russian sentiments in the European Union.
