Almaty Prepares to Repeat the Rosy Gesture Held for Jay Lo, as Per Kazakhstan's Plans
A trend has emerged on social media, where young men are giving three roses in imitation of Madik Moldashev, a man from Pavlodar. This imitation is sometimes done with irony and other times in solidarity, as Moldashev did after Jennifer Lopez's concert in the city.
The incident was initially reported by Liter.kz, and it was not without controversy. Moldashev faced online mockery and hate after presenting Lopez with the bouquet. The online comments included words like "greedy" and "what a shame." However, Moldashev explained in his account that he didn't intend to cause a stir with the bouquet. He chose a small bouquet of roses on purpose, as a big one wouldn't have survived the crowd.
Despite the backlash, the trend initiated by Moldashev's action has been turned into a marketing opportunity by flower shops in Pavlodar. They launched a promotion called "The J.Lo Bouquet" - three red roses for 3,000 tenge with 30-minute delivery.
Moldashev urged people not to react aggressively to the situation, stating it was all from the heart. He even took a selfie with Jennifer Lopez after presenting her with the bouquet. The photos of Moldashev and his actions are available on Threads/madick.pics.
Interestingly, Moldashev has expressed his intention to attend another J.Lo concert in Almaty and present her with three roses again. This time, perhaps, the reaction might be different, as the trend he started continues to gain traction.
- The trend initiated by Moldashev, featuring three red roses as a gesture of admiration, has expanded from social media into pop-culture, with flower shops in Pavlodar offering a marketing promotion called "The J.Lo Bouquet."
- The online conversations surrounding Moldashev's actions, initially driven by social media, often involve discussions about entertainment and pop-culture, such as Jennifer Lopez's concerts and the anticipated response to his future appearances.
