TV presenter Ksenia Sobchak once again provoked the public into a heated discussion. In her microblog, the star spoke extremely unflatteringly about Vladimir Lenin and stated that she did not want to indicate the place of birth of Leningrad in her passport and insisted on indicating St. Petersburg. In the passport office, the celebrity is not understood.

The other day, Ksenia had an unpleasant incident at the Versace fashion show in Milan. A purse with documents was stolen from Sobchak. Now the star is restoring the passport. On Saturday, Ksenia complained about annoying bureaucratic red tape and announced the resumption of a long-standing struggle with the passport office.

“I DO NOT want people to write that the city of my birth is Leningrad,” Sobchak writes. - It offends my feelings, for me such a city does not exist, there is St. Petersburg, named so by the founder of the city. And this is important to me, since my father returned the name to the city. And I don't want to have the surname of the bloody (a word with the letter "M") in my passport, that's all! Enough of a corpse on the main square: (And they don't want me to leave "St. Petersburg" in my new passport - like a mistake, you were born in Leningrad in 81st … So what should I do?"

The celebrity's statement did not meet with public understanding.

Residents of the northern capital reacted mostly negatively. “There was Leningrad, there was a blockade of Leningrad, there was no blockade of St. Petersburg, it turns out, we insult those who died for Leningrad,” reflects one of Xenia's subscribers.

“This is our story, and if we were born in Leningrad, a hero city that defended 900 days of the siege, we must at least respect this, and the inscription in the passport, is it grief ??? Ksenia, I can’t believe that you are writing this,”another is indignant.
