Former
participants

The band's songs have repeatedly topped the Russian charts. In 2005, the group became the winner of the Muz-TV 2005 Prize in the Best Dance Project nomination.

Story

Pavel Yesenin planned to become the soloist of "Hi-Fi", but deciding that the touring life would not leave time for composing music, he abandoned this idea, and Mitya Fomin became the group's frontman. However, Yesenin did not like Fomin's vocals, and he began to sing for him on the group's records.

The official founding date of the group is August 2, 1998. From that day on, artists Mitya Fomin, Timofey Pronkin and Oksana Oleshko began to work together on the filming of a video clip for the song “Not Given”. It is noteworthy that until this moment the participants did not intersect with each other and did not know each other: Fomin worked as a pediatrician, Pronkin as a stripper in a gay club, Oleshko as an employee of a karaoke bar.

At the end of 2008, against the background of the falling popularity of Hi-Fi, Mitya Fomin left the band for the sake of a solo career, tired of "animating" Pavel Yesenin. He is replaced by a new member - Kirill Kolgushkin, but Timofey Pronkin becomes the actual leader of the group.

In February 2010, Ekaterina Lee announced her departure from the team for "greater self-realization on stage". She later became the lead singer of the Fabrika group in place of the departed Sati Casanova. In March 2010, having passed the casting, the new soloist Olesya Lipchanskaya got into the team.

In April 2011, Kirill Kolgushkin announced his intention to leave the team. In February 2012, Vyacheslav Samarin became the new soloist of the group. The band's repertoire included his song "Don't Leave", for which a video was shot. However, Vyacheslav left the group in October of the same year.

Today, the Hi-Fi group is a duet of Timofey Pronkin and Olesya Lipchanskaya.

An excerpt characterizing Hi-Fi (band)

“Well, all right,” said Denisov. And, turning to his subordinates, he made orders that the party go to the designated resting place near the guardhouse in the forest and that the officer on a Kyrgyz horse (this officer acted as adjutant) went to look for Dolokhov, find out where he was and whether he would come in the evening . Denisov himself, with the esaul and Petya, intended to drive up to the edge of the forest, overlooking Shamshev, in order to look at the location of the French, which was to be directed tomorrow's attack.
“Well, God’s ode,” he turned to the peasant conductor, “take me to Shamshev.
Denisov, Petya and the esaul, accompanied by several Cossacks and a hussar who was carrying a prisoner, drove to the left through the ravine, to the edge of the forest.

The rain had passed, only fog and drops of water fell from the branches of trees. Denisov, the esaul, and Petya silently followed the peasant in the cap, who, lightly and soundlessly stepping with his feet turned out in bast shoes over the roots and wet leaves, led them to the edge of the forest.
Coming out to the izvolok, the peasant paused, looked around and headed towards the thinning wall of trees. At a large oak tree, which had not yet shed its leaves, he stopped and mysteriously beckoned to him with his hand.
Denisov and Petya drove up to him. From the place where the peasant stopped, the French were visible. Now a spring field was going down behind the forest like a semi-hillock. To the right, across a steep ravine, one could see a small village and a manor house with collapsed roofs. In this village, in the manor house, and along the whole hillock, in the garden, by the wells and the pond, and along the entire road uphill from the bridge to the village, no more than two hundred sazhens away, crowds of people could be seen in the wavering fog. Their non-Russian cries were clearly heard at the horses in the carts tearing up the mountain and calls to each other.
“Give the prisoner here,” Denisop said quietly, not taking his eyes off the French.
The Cossack dismounted from his horse, removed the boy, and together with him approached Denisov. Denisov, pointing to the French, asked what kind of troops they were. The boy, thrusting his chilled hands into his pockets and raising his eyebrows, looked frightened at Denisov and, despite his apparent desire to say everything he knew, got confused in his answers and only confirmed what Denisov was asking. Denisov, frowning, turned away from him and turned to the esaul, telling him his thoughts.
Petya, turning his head with quick movements, glanced first at the drummer, then at Denisov, then at the esaul, then at the French in the village and on the road, trying not to miss something important.
- Pg "is coming, not pg" is Dolokhov, you have to bg "at! .. Huh?" Denisov said, his eyes flashing merrily.
“The place is convenient,” said the esaul.
“We’ll send infantry from below—by swamps,” Denisov continued, “they’ll crawl up to the garden; you will call with the Cossacks from there, ”Denisov pointed to the forest outside the village,“ and I’m from here, with my gusags.
“It won’t be possible in a hollow - it’s a quagmire,” said the esaul. - You will bog down the horses, you have to go around to the left ...
While they were talking in an undertone in this way, below, in the hollow from the pond, one shot clicked, smoke began to turn white, another, and a friendly, as if cheerful, cry of hundreds of voices of the French who were on the half-mountain was heard. In the first minute, both Denisov and the esaul leaned back. They were so close that it seemed to them that they were the cause of these shots and screams. But the shots and screams did not belong to them. Below, through the swamps, a man in something red was running. Obviously, the French were shooting at him and shouting at him.
- After all, this is our Tikhon, - said the esaul.
- He! they are!
“Eka rogue,” said Denisov.
- Leave! - screwing up his eyes, said the esaul.
The man whom they called Tikhon, running up to the river, flopped into it so that the spray flew, and, hiding for a moment, all black from the water, got out on all fours and ran on. The French, who were running after him, stopped.
- Well, clever, - said the esaul.
- What a beast! Denisov said with the same expression of annoyance. And what has he done so far?
- Who is this? Petya asked.
- This is our plast. I sent him to pick up the language.
“Ah, yes,” said Petya from Denisov’s first word, nodding his head as if he understood everything, although he decidedly did not understand a single word.
Tikhon Shcherbaty was one of the most needed people in the party. He was a peasant from Pokrovsky near Gzhatya. When, at the beginning of his actions, Denisov came to Pokrovskoye and, as always, calling the headman, asked what they knew about the French, the headman answered, as all the headmen answered, as if defending themselves, that they did not know anything, know they don't know. But when Denisov explained to them that his goal was to beat the French, and when he asked if the French had wandered into them, the headman said that there had been marauders for sure, but that in their village only Tishka Shcherbaty was engaged in these matters. Denisov ordered Tikhon to be called to him and, praising him for his activities, said a few words in front of the headman about the loyalty to the tsar and the fatherland and hatred for the French, which the sons of the fatherland should observe.
“We do no harm to the French,” said Tikhon, apparently timid at these words of Denisov. - We only so, means, on hunting dabbled with the guys. It’s like two dozen Miroderov were beaten, otherwise we didn’t do anything bad ... - The next day, when Denisov, completely forgetting about this peasant, left Pokrovsky, he was informed that Tikhon had stuck to the party and asked to be left with it. Denisov ordered to leave him.
Tikhon, who at first corrected the menial work of laying fires, delivering water, skinning horses, etc., soon showed a great desire and ability for guerrilla warfare. He went out at night to plunder and each time brought with him a dress and French weapons, and when he was ordered, he brought prisoners. Denisov put Tikhon away from work, began to take him on trips with him and enrolled him in the Cossacks.
Tikhon did not like to ride and always walked, never falling behind the cavalry. His weapons were a blunderbuss, which he wore more for laughter, a lance and an ax, which he owned like a wolf owns teeth, equally easily picking fleas out of wool and biting thick bones with them. Tikhon equally faithfully, with all his might, split logs with an ax and, taking the ax by the butt, cut out thin pegs with it and cut out spoons. In the party of Denisov, Tikhon occupied his own special, exceptional place. When it was necessary to do something especially difficult and ugly - to turn a wagon in the mud with his shoulder, to pull a horse out of the swamp by the tail, skin it, climb into the very middle of the French, walk fifty miles a day - everyone pointed, chuckling, at Tikhon.
“What the hell is he doing, hefty merenina,” they said about him.
Once a Frenchman, whom Tikhon was taking, shot him with a pistol and hit him in the flesh of his back. This wound, from which Tikhon was treated only with vodka, internally and externally, was the subject of the most cheerful jokes in the whole detachment and jokes that Tikhon willingly succumbed to.
"What, brother, won't you?" Ali cringed? the Cossacks laughed at him, and Tikhon, deliberately crouching and making faces, pretending to be angry, scolded the French with the most ridiculous curses. This incident had only the effect on Tikhon that, after his wound, he rarely brought prisoners.
Tikhon was the most useful and brave man in the party. No one more than him discovered cases of attacks, no one else took him and beat the French; and as a result, he was the jester of all Cossacks, hussars, and he himself willingly succumbed to this rank. Now Tikhon was sent by Denisov, that night, to Shamshevo in order to take language. But, either because he was not satisfied with one Frenchman, or because he slept through the night, he climbed into the bushes during the day, into the very middle of the Frenchmen and, as he saw from Mount Denisov, was discovered by them.

After talking for some more time with the esaul about tomorrow's attack, which now, looking at the proximity of the French, Denisov seemed to have finally decided, he turned his horse and rode back.
- Well, bg "at, tepeg" let's go and dry ourselves, - he said to Petya.
Approaching the forest guardhouse, Denisov stopped, peering into the forest. A man in a jacket, bast shoes and a Kazan hat, with a gun over his shoulder and an ax in his belt, was walking through the forest, between the trees, with long, light steps on long legs, with long dangling arms. Seeing Denisov, this man hurriedly threw something into a bush and, taking off his wet hat with drooping brim, went up to the chief. It was Tikhon. Pitted with smallpox and wrinkles, his face with small narrow eyes shone with self-satisfied amusement. He raised his head high and, as if restraining himself from laughter, stared at Denisov.

Speaking of them, the image of beautiful young people immediately comes to mind: two guys and a girl. That same girl in the period from 1998 to 2003 was Oksana Oleshko.

Childhood and youth

Oleshko Oksana Evgenievna was born in the city of Barnaul, then still in the USSR, on February 13, 1975. Her mother was a geological engineer, and her father was a military man. Also in the Oleshko family grew up and older brother Sergei.

Oksana was often sick, so in 1980 the family decided to change the climate and move to warmer climes. The choice fell on sunny Tbilisi. To further help strengthen the weak immunity of the youngest daughter, the parents decided to send her to the ballroom dancing section, as well as gymnastics.

Dancing

In those years, Oksana first showed a love for dancing, which will become fundamental throughout the life of the artist. Already after the third grade, she goes to continue her studies at the city choreographic school as a ballet dancer. Like gymnastics, ballet involves strong physical and psychological almost daily stress.


Ballet and gymnastics largely influenced the formation of the character of the future artist. Oksana has learned to achieve her goals, to overcome difficulties. In gymnastics, she later achieved the title of candidate master of sports. The next eight years passed in the hall, at the machine.

Day after day, regardless of the weather, or the state of health and circumstances, the girl worked on herself. No excuses were made - this is how the future star was tempered. The first fruits of the work were not long in coming. Already in those years, Oksana began to receive the first invitations from employers. She performed at the Tbilisi Opera and Ballet Theatre.


After graduating from college, Oksana goes to Moscow. So far, she has not yet received invitations from eminent producers or directors. It was a commercial trip organized by the parents of fellow students, a "test of the pen" and a test by the capital. The first pancake came out lumpy, the performances were not successful, from them the girl learned only the confidence that she wanted to live and work in Moscow. Soon the girl left her father's house and went towards her dream.

Like many other novice artists, Oleshko did not have to grab the stars from the sky. And in order to gain a foothold in the new world of creative Moscow, Oksana gets a job at the Children's Musical Theater of Natalia Sats. But the problems only increased, I had to look for rented housing. In the theater, Oksana worked with her husband Elena Chesnokova, with whom they later became friends. Elena and her husband invited the young artist to live with them.


As Ms. Chesnokova herself now says, living with Oksana was easy and calm. She turned out to be a simple and open person, not demanding, it was always a pleasure to communicate with her. As for the work itself, Oksana soon realized that the theater was not her vocation, and decided to change her occupation.

Music

Oleshko begins to perform in celebrity choreographic groups. At first it was, Oksana is friends with him, as well as with his wife. Soon, dancing with Malikov remains in the past, and the future Hi-Fi soloist leaves for the popular group of that time -. After some time, an affair with a member of the team became the reason for Oksana's dismissal.


Oksana Oleshko and group "Hi-Fi"

The career ladder of the girl continued to move up. Oksana's track record includes work for artists, and.

One of the key moments of the artist's creative biography was an invitation from Eric Chanturia to the Hi-Fi group. This was in 1998. The songwriter for the new musical group was Pavel Yesenin. For a girl, this is a new, previously unknown and therefore even more interesting activity. Timofey Pronkin also became her partners in the group. Mitya was chosen as the leader of the group and its frontman, but since his voice did not suit the creator of the group, Pavel Yesenin, the songwriter himself sang the part of the soloist.


The first joint work of the artists was the recording of the single "Not given" and a video for it. For filming, the participants gathered in St. Petersburg. The second single of the group was the song "Homeless". Both compositions were included in the group's first studio album, which was called "First Contact". The collection also included the songs "Thread", "Pioneer", "Forgive me". After 15 years, the album entered the top 30 collections of Russian pop music according to the Afisha publication.

Song "Forgive me"

The team quickly gained popularity. The songs "About Summer", "Black Raven" and "Cuba" appeared. They replenished the next album - "Reproduction". A clip in a sporty style appeared for the song "About Summer". Members of the group starred in the gym, where they repeated the movements of professional athletes. This was easy for them. The plot of the video for the song "Black Raven", on the contrary, turned out to be gloomy: the artists in black suits were filmed on the ruins of an old building.

In 2000, the musicians' hit "Stupid People" was released. At the same time, the third album of the musicians "Remember" was released with the tracks "Brother", "Network", "999". The last joint works of the first line-up of the group were the songs “Secondary School No. 7”, “I love - it means I live” and “Olle!”.

Hit "Hi-Fi" "Stupid People"

Oksana, in addition to participating in the group as a vocalist, also writes words for many songs. Two songs were written for the former frontman. Eric Chanturia was also Batyr's producer.

A popular singer in 2002 accepts an invitation from the Playboy magazine for men to shoot in a candid photo shoot, which increases the number of her fans.


Oksana Oleshko and group "Hi-Fi"

Having stayed in the group until 2003, Oksana makes an important decision. Oleshko leaves Hi-Fi and show business, deciding to devote himself to his family and children. Oksana's colleagues in the group, Mitya Fomin and Timofey Pronkin, supported her friend and remained friends with her, but they chose a former fashion model to replace her. Oksana has a good relationship with Tatyana to this day.

Oksana Oleshko participates in social life, continues to communicate with her comrades in the Hi-Fi group and starred in Mitya Fomin's videos. In 2010, the singer appeared in the video for the song "Everything will be fine", and five years later - for the musical composition "This is how I love you."

Personal life

While working with the Na-Na group, the artist's personal life begins to take shape. The dancers have the guys leads to the fact that Oksana falls in love. The soloist of the group becomes her chosen one. Love was strong, they wrote and dedicated love poems to each other.


According to the contract, which is signed by all members of the Na-Na group, they did not have the right to start a family within a large team. Therefore, the head of the group dismisses Oksana. This trouble did not prevent the lovers from continuing their relationship, Levkin and Oleshko got married.

Not everything went smoothly in the couple's personal life. Vladimir Levkin got cancer. The disease was already at the last stage. As the ex-participant of Na-Na himself said, everything was so bad that he even spent at least 40 minutes on the way from the room to the bathroom. Fortunately, the artist won, the disease still went away, just like Oksana, who fell in love with another man, left him.


In 2002, while on vacation on the Cote d'Azur in France, the girl meets a man named , who immediately managed to capture the girl's attention. Upon returning to Moscow, Oksana divorces Levkin, leaves Hi-Fi and accepts a marriage proposal from Anton. The couple's wedding was an incredibly original and lavish event. Already in 2005, Anton and Oksana had a daughter, Elizabeth. Later, they give birth to another girl, who received the name Veronica. Now the older girl is taking vocal lessons, and the younger one is interested in equestrian sports.


After some time, Oksana still breaks up with her second husband. Later, the artist's son Plato is born. According to some media reports, businessman Sergei Tsvitnenko became the boy's father. But other tabloids claim that the son was born from the singer's third husband, Alexei Petrov, with whom she found female happiness.

Oksana Oleshko shows in the photo in "Instagram" excellent physical shape. The artist spends a lot of time in the gym, relaxing on the sea coast with her children. It is possible that Oksana resorted to plastic surgery, but the artist herself does not mention operations anywhere.

Oksana Oleshko now

In 2017, the NTV channel hosted the show The Stars Came Together, in which Oksana Oleshko became a guest. Other representatives of Russian show business also appeared on the air.


In 2018, the band's concert took place at the Olimpiysky Sports Complex, where Mitya Fomin, Timofey Pronkin and current soloist Marina Drozhdina became guest artists. Together with them, their former colleague Oksana Oleshko, who left the musical group 15 years ago, entered the stage.

The audience warmly welcomed the performance of the "golden composition" of the group "Hi-Fi". According to Mitya Fomin, the musicians are planning to resume creative cooperation. The artists have already recorded a number of new musical compositions and are preparing a video clip for release. In June, the group visited the capital of Belarus on tour.

Pavel Yesenin himself planned to become the soloist of "Hi-Fi", but deciding that the touring life would not leave time for composing music, he abandoned this idea, and Mitya Fomin became the band's frontman. However, Yesenin did not like Fomin's vocals, and he began to sing for him on the group's records.

The official founding date of the group is August 2, 1998. From that day on, artists Mitya Fomin, Timofey Pronkin and Oksana Oleshko began to work together on the filming of a video clip for the song “Not Given”.

It is noteworthy that up to this point the participants did not intersect with each other, did not know each other, and even recorded at the studio at different times.

In early 2003, Oksana Oleshko left the group: she decided to leave show business and devote herself entirely to her family. Two weeks later, a new soloist was found, she became a professional model Tanya Tereshina.

In May 2005, Tatyana Tereshina decides to pursue a solo career and leaves the group. At the beginning of 2006, Katya Li, a student of the jazz department of the St. Petersburg University of Culture and Arts, was approved for the role of a soloist.

At the beginning of 2009, against the background of the falling popularity of Hi-Fi, Mitya Fomin left the band for the sake of a solo career, tired of "animating" Pavel Yesenin. He is replaced by a new member - Kirill Kolgushkin, but Timofey Pronkin becomes the actual leader of the group.

In February 2010, Ekaterina Lee announced her departure from the band for "greater self-realization on stage." Later, she became the soloist of the Fabrika group instead of the departed Sati Casanova. In March 2010, after passing the casting, the new soloist Olesya Lipchanskaya got into the team.

In April 2011, Kirill Kolgushkin announced his intention to leave the band.

In February 2012, Vyacheslav Samarin became the new soloist of the group, however, he left the group in October of the same year.

HI-FI is a Russian pop group from the nineties. One of the few who, after many years, managed to assemble the old line-up on the same stage and carry a unique style of performance through the years.

Compound

In 1998, Pavel Yesenin and Eric Chanturia became the founders of a new musical project. The exact date of creation is August 2, 1998. On this day, work began on the first video clip "Not Given".

The members of the group became. Initially, one of its founders, composer and arranger Pavel Yesenin, claimed the role of the soloist of the group. However, he abandoned this idea, not wanting to change his main activity to frequent tours with an irregular schedule. Mitya Fomin became the central figure of HI-FI.

It is interesting that the members of the group never communicated with each other until the moment of its foundation. Fomin studied in Novosibirsk at the Medical University, and then moved to the capital to apply for admission to VGIK. At this time, fate brought him together with Yesenin and Chanturia.


In an interview for the Internet portal Starhit.ru, Mitya said that meeting the future HI-FI participants in 1998 did not inspire confidence. Unfamiliar different people will not be able to achieve anything in show business, thought Fomin. Soon the HI-FI frontman gained incredible popularity. During the ten years of his work with the group, four albums were released.

Oksana Oleshko also joined the team at the invitation of the producers. Ksyusha is a ballet dancer by profession. She came to Moscow from sunny Tbilisi, worked in ballets of such stars as,. In 1998, Oksana met Eric Chanturia, who offered to participate in the HI-FI group. Despite the fact that Oleshko never professionally engaged in vocals, she accepted the producer's offer.


For the girl, this project turned out to be an opportunity to discover new facets in herself and engage in creativity: Oksana wrote the words for the songs of Chanturia's ward, Batyrkhan, and also appeared on the cover of Playboy.

Like the rest of the participants, Timofey Pronkin was not connected with music before joining HI-FI. As a professional dancer, he knew what the stage was, but he never studied vocals. By the way, Timofey is seriously passionate about design and opened a printing services company.

Music

Until 2003, the HI-FI group released many songs that became hits ("Song of the Princess", "Brother", "He", "I Love", "Black Raven", "Seventh Petal"). Clips have repeatedly become the winners of the charts on Russian music channels. In 2002, a video for the song "The Seventh Petal" was released. The original version of the song was in English. The refrain for the Russian version was written by .


Already in 1999, HI-FI received the first Golden Gramophone Award for the song Black Raven. Songs won at the same award: “For me” in 2010, “And we loved” in 2002 and “The Seventh Petal” in 2004.

In 2003, Oksana Oleshko announced her decision to leave the stage. This applied not only to the HI-FI group, but also to show business in general. The ex-vocalist of the pop group preferred family life. Oleshko married the lead singer of the group, but the marriage broke up. Oksana's second husband was a businessman. The singer gave birth to two daughters to him, but this time there was a divorce. Father of the third child, Oksana's son, businessman Sergei Tsvitnenko.

Song "And we loved" group "Hi-Fi"

In the same 2003, the producers found a replacement for Oleshko. For two years she became the new soloist of HI-FI. But later she left the group, taking up a solo career. After Tereshina left, the group members changed periodically. Among them: Katya Li, Olesya Lipchanskaya, Marina Drozhdina.

2005 was marked for the group by a victory at the "Muz-TV Prize" in the nomination "The Most Fashionable Group". This is the largest award in the history of the band's existence.

The song "Homeless" of the group "Hi-Fi"

In 2009, Mitya Fomin left the HI-FI group. Now he has a solo career. The producers decided to replace the soloist with Kirill Kolgushkin. The new soloist could not become the leader of the group, this privilege went to Timofey Pronkin.

Mitya Fomin during his solo career has achieved no less success than the legendary pop group. A year after working outside the team, the video “Everything will be fine” was shot. The audience appreciated Fomin's work, and soon the song played on the top lines of the radio charts.

Song "Stupid people" group "Hi-Fi"

In addition, the singer worked thoroughly on the hit "Everything will be fine": he was the director. The song brought Mitya an award from the Golden Gramophone. In 2010, the first album "So it will be" was released. Mitya Fomin also began working as a TV presenter on Muz-TV.

In 2012, Kolgushkin was replaced by Vyacheslav Samarin. Although he left the team in the same year, he managed to make an unbearable contribution. He wrote several songs for the group. A video was shot for the track "Don't Leave". From 2016 to 2018, HI-FI existed as a duet of Timofey Pronkin and Marina Drozhdina.

The song "Take off" by the group "Hi-Fi"

The girl used to be familiar with the work of the group, but she does not call herself a fan: she admired either the quality of the vocals or the choreography. When I got into the team, I didn’t have to get used to the stage and learn the words of the songs: Marina knew each of them by heart, so the group became a cult at that time.

HI-FI now

Each of the HI-FI performers builds a career and conquers show business. Most performers have a solo career, and someone has completely left show business.


For 10 years there was no news about the HI-FI group, although Timofey Pronkin and Marina Drozhdina still gave concerts. Stars can be invited to cooperate, their contact details are on the official website and on Instagram. There are also photos, and video reports from concerts, and appeals to fans.

In April 2018, HI-FI performed as a gold line-up at the Olimpiyskiy. Mitya Fomin, Timofey Pronkin, Oksana Oleshko 20 years later found themselves on the same stage again and performed their favorite hits.


Golden composition of the group "Hi-Fi" in 2018

At the same event, and. In an interview with journalists, Mitya Fomin keeps the intrigue, but hints that the HI-FI meeting was not accidental and fans are waiting, perhaps, for a new song or even an album.

In addition to the three permanent performers, Marina Drozhdina took the stage. Later, the singer shared with the media that the audience reacted to her appearance not as violently as to the original composition of HI-FI, but this is not a reason for frustration. Marina plans to stay in the group for a long time.

Remember them? The first soloists of "Hands Up!", "Brilliant" and other pop groups
We are ready to argue, as soon as you see photos of these girls, you will immediately remember them in the first clips of popular groups. But rather quickly, the artists left the bands, and even the most devoted fans of our pop music will hardly remember their names.

Oksana Oleshko, Hi Fi

Professional ballerina Oksana is the star of the debut video of the Ne Given group. Oksana worked in the group for 2 years - from 2003 to 2005. During this time, the artist managed to divorce Vladimir Levkin, a former member of the Na-Na group, and marry millionaire Anton Petrov (the one who left the pregnant MakSim in 2014). Out of a desire to become a mother, the artist left the team. Oksana and her second husband had two daughters, but later the couple broke up, and Oksana has a son from the following relationship with businessman Sergei Tsvitnenko.

Polina Iodis and Varvara Koroleva, "Brilliant"

In 1995, Polina Iodis dropped out of law school and began her stage career. Polina sang in the first part of the "Brilliant". Tours, clips, fans, fees ... But one day Polina realized that this was not for her. She was attracted by the ocean and surfing! The decision was made: a break with a past life, and a little later - moving to Bali. Polina became one of the founders of the Surfing Federation and the Russian Championship in this sport, which she herself won three years in a row. Polina organizes events, surf camps in Europe, writes articles and shoots what she loves so much and how she lives. Nicole, Polina's daughter, appeared in Bali. Barbara lasted even less in Sequins and also preferred sports to music. But instead of waves, the girl chose the mountains and became a professional rock climber.

Alena Vinnitskaya, Via Gra

"Alena, save yourself before it's too late!" - this phrase from the song "Attempt No. 5" was picked up by the whole country. Alena (whose real name is Olga), in a duet with Granovskaya, took on the leading solo parts, so Nadezhda, without a twinge of conscience, decided to improve her personal life, but returned to the group a few weeks after the birth of the baby. After that, the fickle Granovskaya left VIA Gro and returned again, so she became a real star of the team. And Vinnitskaya, having survived four more line-up changes, left VIA Gra in 2003, starting a solo career. Now Alena lives and works in her homeland - in Ukraine. For many years, Alena has been faithful to her husband, producer Sergei Alekseev, whom she married back in 1995. The couple has no children.

Maria Alalykina, "Factory"


Masha rather quickly left the group (in August 2003) to devote herself to her family. But few people know that the former artist not only got married, but converted to Islam! This was demanded by Masha's husband, lawyer Alexei Zuenko, to whom Alalykina gave birth to a daughter. True, family happiness did not last long: the man left Masha for another. Alalykina did not take off her hijab and is now raising her daughter Katya in the traditions of Islam.

Elizaveta Rodnyanskaya, "Hands Up!"

"Student", "Move your body" and, of course, "Song" from the first album "Breathe evenly" were recorded with the participation of Lisa. Together with the guys, she also starred for the insert of the debut cassette, where she was listed as a member of the team. Rodnyanskaya regularly performed with Zhukov and Potekhin, but Elizaveta no longer worked on the second disc. The singer began to develop her own project MeliSSa, where she still works.

Marina Lizorkina, SEREBRO

As part of the "factory" trio, Marina participated in Eurovision 2007 with the song Song # 1, but a couple of years later the artist decided to change the field of art. Lizorkina left the team to become an artist! Marina presented three exhibitions in Moscow, and since 2015 the former singer has been working and exhibiting in the States.
