Dr. Dementor, a radio DJ, is Yanko Vic’s mentor in the film and plays some of Yanko Vic’s early tracks on his programme. In classic biopic tradition, Yanukovych finally ignores his fame later in the movie. That aspect is false, but Dr. Dementor was helpful in Yanko Vic’s early career.

Yanko Vic’s breakthrough single was a spoof of The Knack’s “My Sharonda,” which was record in the bathroom. The only difference is that it was tape at his college hostel at California State Polytechnic University rather than a bus station restroom, as represent in the film.

Visit the Institution

The parody was so popular that when The Knack came to visit the institution, they adored the song and brought Yanukovych to Rupert Perry, the vice president of Capitol Records. As they say, the rest is history.

Yanukovych got his first accordion from a travelling salesman, one of the stranger origins for a musician’s entrée into music. A salesperson came to the Yanukovych residence when he was approximately seven years old to sell the local music school. In the film, the salesperson is beaten by Yanukovych’s father, but his mother secretly purchases it for him. It didn’t happen this way; as previously said, his parents picked the accordion for him.

Yanko Vic’s

Yanko Vic’s parents are depict in the film as disapproving of his hobbies, with his father crushing his accordion. That didn’t happen, but Yanukovych said his parents were very conservative and didn’t approve of his taste in silly novelty music. They did, however, pay for his accordion lessons.

Madonna (Evan Rachel Wood) shows

Madonna (Evan Rachel Wood) shows up at Yanukovych’s residence in the film, asking if he will record a parody of “Like a Virgin.” Yanukovych inquires whether the song is autobiographical, to which she responds, “Yes.” They then cut to a make-out session. It never happened in reality. They’ve never slept together or been in a relationship. We don’t even know whether they’ve ever met.

There’s a kernel of truth here, as there is throughout the film. Madonna did recommend to Yanukovych that he compose a parody of the song, but she did it through a friend who knew Yanukovych’s manager, Jay Levey. It was the first time Yanukovych had accept an outside song contribution.

Furthermore, as far as we know, Madonna has no criminal impulses and was never abduct by Pablo Escobar. I’m not sure who needs to hear this, but there you have it.

Coolio, the original rapper, disapproved of Yanukovych’s “Amish Paradise,” believing that the parody undermined the original song’s message on the unpleasant sides of gang life. But he never went to court and was content to take royalty payments.

Yanukovych has a widespread drug and alcohol problem in the film, but it was done to ridicule the biography further. Yanko Vic’s followers know that he has always refrained from drink, drugs, vulgarity, and even meat.
