Yusif Eyvazov has been shooting off home truths to a Russian magazine.
He tells days.ru that he shed 26 kilos, dropping from 120kg to 94.
‘Do you know the biggest benefit of my weight loss?’ he adds. ‘We now have more positions in bed!’
Too much information?

do we really care?
No we don’t!
Russian peasantry has always intrigued the
western world ,what better than these two.
Has it? Russian aristos have but I am not aware of any peasantry fixations.
Maybe you need to find an optician? Eyvazov is from Azerbajan, not Russia. But to a Polak, I suppose they’re all the same place.
It seems to be more and more superficial
TMI – too much information.
TMI or TMZ? Or both?
It seems the worse and less these people sing, the more of this we get.
Ew.
Too Much Information buddy. This isn’t the 1960s, no-one wants to have to imagine your ugly body mating!
That’s called fat shaming. People who’ve created identarianism have opened a pandora’s box of categories and it’s a game everybody can play!!
“That’s called fat shaming.”
Silversled did not say anything about him being fat. But you just did.
Maybe he just doesn’t like hairy men?
IDENTARIANISM?!!!! Sue, really!
I thought that s what he has to offer, his robust look
And he shed part of those kilos….
slow news day
Is there no limit to the vulgarity of this pair? What next — Paris Hiltonesque videos appearing online? God help us.
Good sex = happy singers
= #metoo? Don’t say thiiiiiiiiiis.
WAY TOO MUCH INFO, ANF WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH OPERA?????
Sex? with opera? everything?
See “Sex and the Music Librarian”, the notorious 1986 by (Russian born!) Nicholas Slonimsky (1894-1995).

Now, don’t be cruel and condescending.
Just be grateful for how pinstripe and savvy these people make you feel.
Destroys my image of this great artist. I think disclosure of private matters is in extremely poor taste.
Are you going to sing a new role? Which one? Are you going to try a new position? Which?
Sometimes the singer loses weight and the voice follows.
It would be interesting to see what the massive weight loss has done to his instrument.
Agree, way too much information.
I am all for exercise, but some vocal study is in order as well
When he is talking about the effects of losing weight it might be best not to mention his “instrument” and how he uses it.
Vulgar, inadequate, tacky and useless comment, just like your singing @yusifeyvasov in your same style I comment “keep her happy! That’s the only reason you have a career”
No videos of the actual deed?
Disappointing…
Stick around…in two days we’ve gone from pyjamas to positions. Can porn be far behind?
“No videos of the actual deed?
Disappointing…”
Pics or it didn’t happen!
A Modest Proposal:
Let’s have a complete moratorium on news about the Netrebkos until…. well, do we have to have an end date?
Shut up and sing!
No please don’t!
This is a big wtf cares
If this encourages others to shed excess weight and their distended aprons, then all well and good, but has his vocal technique also improved?
There are easily accessible publications for anyone interested in trivia and tittle tattle, so why is this being reproduced here, a soi-disant “inside track on classical music and related cultures”? Other than prurience?
Not a regular reader here, then?
In case you hadn’t noticed, it’s part of SD’s DNA.
When you become the de facto “People Magazine” of the classical music field, it’s where you end up.
Too much information! 🙁
TMI
Some classic opera positions:
The Magic Flute
The Cunning Little Vixen
Madame Butterfly
Pique Dame
Der Freischütz
Intermezzo
The Fiery Angel
Orpheus in the Underworld
Perhaps he should play the lead in Prokofiev’s “The Story of a Real Man.”
Great. A man who is not afraid to share this. She is lucky.
I salute him for his honesty and openness. Sexual health as well and a healthy weight is an important part of overall well-being, which translates into singer health. I wish him success in and bed and vocally on the stage.
Sure you wouldn’t like him to enumerate those positions?
And just why did we need to know this?
Childish, and who gives shit
Can we have a moratorium on Netrebko, her husband, her tantrums, her free PR, and wait until she does something, you know, interesting? Not to mention MUSICAL? I’m sick to the back teeth of her attention-seeking, and of SD feeding it. Offstage she’s an utter bore. As someone in these pages said days ago: Enough Already.
Yes, too much information. And if it doesn’t start with, at least it ends with, the reviewer putting the information in this blog.
Bottom line- two second rate, overhyped, probably overpaid singers have found each other in the cesspool that my favorite art form has become, and they are happy
Wish them well in their pursuit of mediocrity that has been proclaimed high art
So you can sing better than either of these two superb performers!
Just crude verging on the pathetic – hardly funny – and no we don’t need to know all this!
Perhaps it’s not surprising that the other blogposts equate “more positions in bed” with the Kama Sutra. And, indeed, that may be the correct interpretation (although translations from one language to another often lack nuance).
My first reaction, however, was much different. When Mr. Eyvazov was heavier, he probably could not sleep on his back because of the snoring. Now that he’s lighter, he has “more options in bed” – he can sleep on his back, his right side, or his left side.
Less snoring means that Mrs. Eyvazov is happier. And when Mrs. Eyvazov is happier, then the Kama Sutra becomes important. So the other blogposts may be right after all.
“although translations from one language to another often lack nuance”
Not in this case:
“А как похудение Эйваза сказалось на исполнении им супружеских обязанностей? “Секс у нас всегда был хороший, – заверила “Дни.ру” Нетребко”. “А знаете, в чем самый большой плюс моего похудения? – подхватил счастливый супруг. – У нас поз стало больше в постели!””
Really? Way TMI. As Falstaff says, reo mondo, mondo rubaldo. Tutto declina.
Definitely too much information.
Clearly, they are a perfect match.
What a dummy ! Anna will kick his butt out the door before he can finish Amor ti vieta!
If she ever does that, it wouldn’t be because of his bragging about their sexual skills.
