About the book

“I’ve messed up a lot. Yes, I have to own that.” Aleks Petrovic says these words in April 2026 to a booing audience, the “Red Flag of the Year” trophy in front of him. Behind him lie five years in front of the cameras, two relationships that fell apart in front of an audience of millions, and a life between Dubai, death threats and his own ego.

The book starts earlier: with radne navike, the work habits of his Serbian parents, for whom performance counted and feelings stayed silent. With the boy whose bag was hidden in the changing room and who built up his muscles as armour. With the man who believed that love could be earned if only he solved enough problems for others.

Petrovic takes his downfall apart like an engineer takes apart a faulty gearbox. What he uncovers underneath is no show. It is shame.
