[MrColmSB]

You are an inspiration dude. If i had 1% of your ability and tenacity, then i would be content. Keep flying higher and higher.

[Jesvel18]

[MultiLpslover]

[MissSydneyDoan]

[SWrath]

@MissSydneyDoan He should be around 25 years old. One source had his birthday listed as August 1985.

[NebulaSu]

@SWrath wow same year when i was born, and i am not at all talented XD

[jkps16hd]

creo que me enamore

[azhora]

@jkps16hd entiendo todo lo que dice menos algo relacionado con la calle, podrías decirme si sabes que dcice por favor, tengo curiosidad

[TheMysticalnymph]

@azhora El dice que caundo tenia cuatro años y medio, antes de estar con Cirque du Soleil, vino de Russia con un circo grande... pero los patrocinadores los abandonaron(a el y a su familia) y estuvieron en la calle. Sin embargo, unos Judios los ayudaron. Tambien que el acto de la red se los dedica a ellos.

[wolfehsangel]

He has a graceful style...very beautiful

[dreamer2anime]

thats touching

[elishlomo]

As a jew i wont to thank you anton for telling your touching story, especially whan i see that mostly pepole so easly find bad things to say about us, there is good and unfortunately evil too in all nations, thanks for lighten that up.

[cheerandfluvit]

[dantesa1010]

[100DiddlySquatxx]

[ANDRANIIK]

Невероятное шоу!!!!! был целых три раза на Варекае!!!! Люди -это надо видеть всем!!!!!

[Noonke]

Антон без грима еще симпатичнее)

[straynekokami720]

[Conzillafication]

He's one of the most beautiful human beings I've ever seen..

[ninaflamada94]

I saw the Saltimbanco DVD and I said:"Wow! This kid is fantastic!!!". Right now I saw Varekai and I just LOVED his performance. He's an amazing artist!

[becky2shoes]

Wow! I saw him in Saltimbanco!

[GIRLy2606]

he's so talented! I really miss him on Varekai, not that Mark doesn't perform beautifully, but Anton always will be Icarus for me! he was amazing there. I hope he's doing something that makes him happy. Go Anton!

[MiCoRoNi]

dabomshiz haha love your comment.. so true. he`s an amazing performer.

[vanne8]

It was beatiful!!

You're amazing Anton!

[balletzenaida]

OMG... sexy ♥_♥ xDD

[dreamofthecirque]

I LOVE YOU ANTON!!! antons awesome and very cute

[eunbit14]

I feel a bit sad that his family were on the street but good thing thet he made it again. His Family must be verry proud of him. And his sort of cute.

[Valery177]

He is totally cute!!

[Aguilamarina127]

@Valery177

Fantastic! Where you get this video? I can't find the artist's interviews... Thank for post it!

[theatregeek84]

@Aguilamarina127 I think this is from "Fire Within"

[fishboyvideofilm]

@theatregeek84 no it is from VAREKAI. Cirque Du Soleil Is an amazing thing. All the performers are amazing.

[theatregeek84]

@fishboyvideofilm .....No, actually, this video itself is from Fire Within - like I said. Some scenes are from Varekai because "Fire Within" is a documentary about the making of Varekai. When was the last time you were at a Cirque show and an artist sat on stage and talked about his life? hehe

[fishboyvideofilm]

@theatregeek84 no you got that wrong...I went to see VAREKAI and at the start it showed you the stories of all the performers...

GET YOUR FACTS RIGHT!!!

[theatregeek84]

@fishboyvideofilm ...haha on snap, no need to yell my friend! lol ...we're both wrong. it is definitely, 100% on the DVD of Varekai but on the bonus features - meet the artists.

But this definitely isn't shown if you go to see Varekai under the big top.

You should also buy Fire Within because it really is a cool documentary, behind the scenes of the making of Varekai!

[KDmami]

it would be so nice if he married Olga, they could be the couple with amazing talent. what a couple. Tendrian unos hijitos tan churrisimos y que decir del contorcionismo.

[thecrazy35]

no mames como cres si ella tiene novio y aparte ella es mas garnde que el como por siete años pero si harian una buena pareja

[StrawberryDreamin]

Wow,he is really cute

[monolokadm]

q edad tiene?

[Delix86]

actualemnte el tiene 22 años pero ya casi cumple 23... y en ese video tendria unos 17 o 18 años...

[Delix86]

actualmente el tiene 22 años pero en agosto cumplira 23 añitos y si t refieres al video pues tendria unos 17 o 18 años mas menos...

[ephrayimlevi]

wow a sad story. good he made it hes so talented ^^

[Heartlessiceboy]

he should have a lead part on fire within!

[yamilias]

OH my GOD!!! I totally love this man! I loved him in VAREKAI, I loved him more with FIRE WITHIN and now even mooore!!!! Anton Chelnokov is the best!

[Pompoms13]

Anton, anton, anton. i have been head ovr heels IN LOVE with him for almost 6 years. yep the first time i saw him i waz like damn boy. i truely miss him in Varekai. i havent seen Mark but... without anton in it its not the same Varekai i remember. I ♥ u ANTON!!

[DiorChick223]

wow a family all together, so sweet

[acrofreak]

dang he grew up to be handsome

[blenderaa]

:O Thank's :)

[blenderaa]

Can someone translate the music? *-*

[Penguin888]

Most of all the music is in "cirqueish" a language that doesn't mean anything.

[SolitudeVolante]

he looks so different without makeup!

[monster1083]

what show is he doing now?

[SimGirlKiss]

Anton was the finest Icarus in my opinion; hes such a stunningly talented and attractive boy, he just took my breath away whenever he came on stage

[blurberry22]

Hi, where was this snippet taken from? Coz I don't have "Fire Within", so I was just wondering if this little segment comes from there...

[Icarusangel27]

It's from the Varekai DVD, the bonus features disc, where it has some in-depth interviews with some of the main artists. =D

[blurberry22]

Oh... my Varekai DVD doesn't have a bonus features disc... :(

Did they take out the bonus features disc for Varekai after they started marketing "Fire Within" or something...?

[yamilias]

Beautiful...just beautiful, the man, the acts, the story...beautiful is indeed the most suitable word for this person and thsi video...thanks for uploading this

[FrozenThorns]

I have so much respect for Anton. His story is incredible, like him! Acting in a circus at age five and being able to contort well enough for live performances! That's unbelievable.

The Cirque acts have so much depth to them. They're so beautiful! I remember loving his act when I saw it. :]

[robynoo]

i saw him yesterday and his preformance was my favorite, with the live music and just him on stage.

[SoritaK]

OMG!! I LOVE HIM!! he's too sexy xD jajaja

[gabidesu]

Thanks for sharing!

I love the Icaru's act : )

[llc88]

Я люблю тебя Антон.

I actually don't know how to say Anton in Russian...

Anton is so graceful and full of expression and emotion. I love watching Varekai because of him.

[annemie608]

Very nice interview! Thankx fo rposting!

[judit1987]

amazing guy!i love Anton more and more!<3

[cirqueraven91]

Man, I love Anton! He is such an inspiration for me. I have him on my wall so that when everything starts to fall apart I think of him and his story. The first time I seen him 3 or so yrs. ago in Varekai I haven't been able to forget him. I hope to one day I get the chance to perform with this beautiful soul...
