After criticism of the last New Year's show, Channel One is choosing artists for this year's show on Odnoklassniki. Together with traditional performers, the channel is ready to invite artists to the New Year's broadcast, for whom social network users will vote. In addition to Polina Gagarina, the short list included, in particular, the groups “Mushrooms” and “Time and Glass”.

Odnoklassniki (OK) has begun voting for the performers who will be invited to the New Year's broadcast of Channel One, its representative said. Users until October 30 can choose up to three performers from the proposed shortlist and enter the name of one more who is not on the list. The shortlist is based on the music popularity rating in Odnoklassniki (OK); The top 60 includes singers and groups whose tracks are most often listened to by users.

Among them are regular participants in the New Year's broadcast (Polina Gagarina, Irina Dubtsova and Ani Lorak) and names that have never appeared there (Mushrooms, Time and Glass, Jah Khalib and Mot, IOWA).

The leaders of the voting will be those for whom they vote with a large margin, but it is not yet clear by what margin which artist will win, says a representative of “First”. According to him, until now the channel has not used online voting to select television participants.

The general director of Channel One, Konstantin Ernst, suggested choosing the artists for the New Year’s concert based on the results of a vote among OK users. Some of the audience sarcastically criticized the last New Year's broadcast due to the participation of permanent pop stars, including Boris Moiseev, Sofia Rotaru, Oleg Gazmanov, Irina Allegrova and others. Music producer Maxim Fadeev called the New Year's shows of "First" and "Russia 1" "rural matinees on request from the 1980s" with "an impossible repertoire, popular prints, terrible jokes." A petition was circulated on social networks to Channel One with a demand to “stop the New Year’s TV disgrace.” In January, Mr. Ernst, answering a question on the OK social network about complaints about these shows, said that their system viewers are people over 45 years old. At the same time, he considered the youth audience’s complaints against them fair and announced a vote in the OK on the composition of artists, from which he would take into account at least the top 20.

For the last five years, viewers have been choosing the winners of the “Voice” show live via SMS. “It’s turning out pretty good. Let’s see how everything turns out with the New Year,” says Yuri Aksyuta, chief producer of music and entertainment programs at Channel One. “Everyone is interested in the success of the experiment.” The project is interesting because it gives users the opportunity to influence the content, adds OK head Anton Fedchin.

Odnoklassniki has started voting for the performers who will headline the New Year's broadcast of the country's main TV channel. Available in the official group of Channel One application“Your stars are on the First.” Using it, users can select from the proposed shortlist up to three favorite performers whom they want to see on television on the night from December 31, 2017 to January 1, 2018. Each user can also enter the name of another artist who was not on the list. The application can be opened from any device: in the desktop and mobile versions of Odnoklassniki, as well as in the OK applications for iOS and Android.

The shortlist of performers is based on the popularity rating of the performers in Odnoklassniki. The “Top 60” includes singers and groups whose tracks are most often listened to by OK users. Among them there are both regular participants in New Year’s television broadcasts (and Ani Lorak), and newcomers (“Mushrooms”, “Time and Glass”, Jan Khalib and Mot, IOWA, etc.)

Voting will last until October 30, and users will be able to track its intermediate results online. After summing up the final results, the leaders will be invited to film in the New Year's show on Channel One.

Initially, OK suggested choosing artists for the New Year's concert based on the results of user voting. The general director of Channel One said this in January of this year on the online show “OK on touch!”

“Voting for New Year’s Eve participants on Channel One is a tool for direct influence of viewers on the formation of television content,” says the chief producer of music and entertainment programs on Channel One. — It is the viewers who have been choosing the winners of “The Voice” live for 5 years now. It turns out well. Let's see how everything turns out in the New Year. Everyone has a stake in the success of the experiment.”

“The project with Channel One is interesting because it is not just the integration of television content into a social network, but also an opportunity for users to influence this content,” said the head of the Odnoklassniki social network. — Interactive formats are another point of intersection between television and social networks, where users can begin interacting with content even before it is published. We are glad that Channel One followed this trend and for the first time entrusted OK users with participation in the selection of artists for the New Year’s show.”

The playlist of Channel One's New Year's show will be made based on the results of a popular vote held in the application " Your stars on the First" Users can select up to three performers from the proposed list, and also enter the name of another one themselves.

The list of proposed performers was compiled based on the popularity rating of the artists in Odnoklassniki. Among them are regular participants in Channel One’s New Year’s projects (Polina Gagarina, Irina Dubtsova and Ani Lorak), but also performers who have never performed on New Year’s air (“Mushrooms”, “Time and Glass”, Jan Khalib and Mot, IOWA and others ).

At the time of writing, the leaders of the group are Grigory Leps, Nargiz, the Leningrad group, Polina Gagarina and the singer “Alexeev”. However, producer Maxim Fadeev noted that his artists Nargiz and SEREBRO will not perform in the show. The producer wrote that he considers his subordinates to be people who deserve respect, and asks fans not to give their votes for them.

In addition, Maxim Fadeev believes that none of the representatives of the modern scene will ultimately be involved in the filming.
