On Victory Day, Russia's Channel One (Perviy) aired the traditional concert that closes annual celebrations of the anniversary of the Soviet Union's victory over Nazi Germany. But the otherwise somber ceremony was interrupted by the bizarre appearance on stage of the most famous criminal couple in American history, Newsweek reports.

In the background of the stage filled with costume-wearing actors holding red Soviet flags, old black and white pictures of smiling Russian couples flipped through a screen, adding nostalgia and gravity to the sentimental voice of the singer on stage.

Until all of a sudden, perfectly hidden between the series of images from the past, a photo of Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow appears on the screen.

In clips from the concert, nobody can be seen reacting, either on stage or among the audience, to the bizarre appearance of the most famous crime couple in American history.

The incident has been reported by Ukraine Today and other Ukrainian media, while Russian media have not talked about it. The photo has been removed from online videos on Russian media.

In a similar rally in Sofia, Bulgaria, a poster of Jude Law in the role of Russian soldier Sergey Zaitsev in the movie Enemy at the Gates was seen.
