Leader of the group "Ocean Elzy" Svyatoslav Vakarchuk, who celebrated his 43rd birthday in May, starred in a new photo shoot.

The musician took part in the filming for the July issue of ELLE Man magazine. In black and white photographs, Vakarchuk appears thoughtful in shirts and wide trousers.

In an interview with the publication, the musician told about his studies at Stanford.

"Most of the people I talked to about America do not even admit that it's possible to go to Stanford simply because it's the best time for you, the best reboot, because it's important to learn something new. Yes, in America I was engaged in the search for myself and studied, learned the new, "- shared Vakarchuk.

At the same time, the singer noted that the fact that he studied political science and sociology in the US does not mean that he is now going to the presidency.

"I am constantly asked about my presence in political ratings, presidential ambitions, desire or unwillingness to stand for election. And the story is that, whatever I did not answer you, you still will not believe, "- Svyatoslav shared.

Recall that in December 2017 Svyatoslav Vakarchuk made a political statement, calling 10 steps to reform Ukraine. At the same time, the musician disowned political ambitions.
