Milan Popov: 'Big Dream' Comes True on Pinkove Zvezde

Milan Popov, son of singer Stoja Novakovic and a contestant on “Elita 10,” has been given the chance to compete in the new season of “Pinkove Zvezde.” The news reached him in a letter from the Big Boss, addressed to all residents of the White House, and Milan’s first taping in front of the cameras and jury is scheduled for September 21.

According to Mondo and Kurir, the letter read:

“Dear Elita 10, have you wondered why you were informed about the start of the new season of Pinkove Zvezde? Because the Big Boss recognizes talent and fulfills the wishes of the contestants. As a great singing talent, Milan Popov will get the chance to compete on Pinkove Zvezde and fulfill his lifelong dream. Milan’s first taping in front of the cameras and the Pinkove Zvezde jury is on September 21, and until then he must choose the song he will perform. Regards, the Big Boss.”

Popov made no secret of his joy and immediately expressed his gratitude.

“I just want to thank the Big Boss, this is a great honor and a huge dream. I will not let the Big Boss down,” Milan Popov said on Elita 10.

Popov entered Elita as the son of Stoja Novakovic, and he has already spoken in the house about growing up with a mother who built her career on stage, a topic the portal covered earlier in the article “Milan Popov: I Bore the Consequences While Stoja Was Singing.” As soon as his housemates heard about the Big Boss’s decision, they jumped in to help him pick a song, and according to Kurir, some of the residents said they wanted to work on the preparation with Desingerica’s team.

The news about Pinkove Zvezde arrived the same day Popov had a tense conversation with his girlfriend, Radojka Jovanovic. Republika reports that the argument broke out before Milan learned of the Big Boss’s decision, and that it was sparked by his dissatisfaction with her behavior in the house.

“Come on, Rada, if you were serious about me. Sometimes I feel like I have a child, not a partner. Come on, do something,” Milan Popov said, to which Radojka Jovanovic replied, “I took a shower, what do you want?”

According to the same source, Milan went on to tell her she should show more independence, and that he could not take care of both himself and her. Republika’s report on the argument also notes that Radojka is younger than Popov’s daughter, a detail that Mondo and Kurir do not mention.

A short while later, after the Big Boss’s letter arrived, the tone between the two housemates was completely different. According to Kurir, Milan pulled Radojka aside to share the news, and she offered him her support.

“My love, I’m so happy for you. I can’t wait to watch you all the time, for you to become a big star. I listened to you more than anyone,” Radojka Jovanovic said, to which Milan replied that he still could not get over the surprise.

This is not the first emotional episode Popov has gone through on Elita since his girlfriend entered the show. Mondo recalls that Milan previously broke down in tears while talking about Radojka, telling his mother that it had not been easy for him as a child while she was singing on stages, and that he now wants to fight for his own children.

Now, according to the Big Boss’s letter, a new task awaits him: choosing, by September 21, the song he will perform for the Pinkove Zvezde jury, while the rest of the Elita 10 housemates will get to follow his performances from the White House.
