Yakov Smirnoff

Yakov once told Johnny Caron, "You have such nice things in the U.S.—like warning shots!"

It has been quite a journey for the man who became an American citizen on July 4, 1986, when he was sworn in (by Chief Justice Warren Burger) at the Statue of Liberty. The Russian immigrant, who in 1977 landed in this country with his parents and less than $100 in his pocket, has grown to become a command performer at the White House and across the nation. As Yakov says, “What A Country!”

Yakov’s movie credits include: “Moscow on the Hudson” with Robin Williams, “Brewster’s Millions” with Richard Pryor, “The Money Pit” with Tom Hanks, and “Heartburn” with Jack Nicholson and Meryl Streep.
Since his 1992 arrival in Branson, Missouri, Yakov Smirnoff has played host to more than three million visitors.

Bid now to win a 10-minute telephone conversation with Yakov. This is a great gift for yourself or a loved one or friend. No one else is getting Yakov Smirnoff as a gift this year, so it’s the perfect gift for the person who “has everything.”
