Russian pop singers list of women. The most charming singers in the world
Nobody in the world knows Soviet and Russian pop musicians. Especially in the West. Nevertheless, musicians from Russia different time hit the Western charts.
All attempts to promote and impose our popular music on the Western public failed. Russian pop music is very secondary and backward, both technologically and stylistically.
But it has become good tradition hang noodles to the Russian public about the successes of certain performers in the West. It comes down to the ridiculous.
Kirkorov traveled to Monte Carlo on The World Music Awards is a show of the best-selling artists in their countries, while it is quite difficult to find a person in Russia who has Kirkorov's album. Pugachev, as you know, in 1997 took only 15 place out of 25 at the useless Eurovision.
Sergey Lazarev sings in English for some reason, this is generally human brain unable to cope. Iosif Prigozhin, whose obsession was to push Valeria to the West, once stated in a paid article in a British newspaper that his wife had sold 100 million albums in Russia.
Most big success was at Timati's rapper when the Swiss DJ Antoine made a remix for Timati's song Welcome to St. Tropez. The song went around the top of the charts in the world, except for the UK and the US. In Switzerland, the song took sixth place at the end of the year. This is the peak for our variety performers behind Lately.
Which of our musicians really achieved high places in the Western (and this, in the musical sense, primarily the USA and Great Britain) charts and is generally more or less known in the West.

2. Boris Grebenshchikov - 1989
His album Radio Silence, released in England and the US, reached #198 on the Billboard200, despite being recorded with the then super-popular Eurythmics. In the video - BG's performance on the popular TV show David Letterman.
3. Gorky Park-1990
Success Gorky Park in the United States cannot be exaggerated. They did not conquer America. One need only look at their achievements in the charts. In the Billboard Hot 100, they were noted only by the single Try To Find Me (81st place and 6 weeks on the chart), and on the Billboard 200 - the album Gorky Park (80th place and 21 weeks on the chart).
But in general, Gorky Park sold well - 300 thousand copies sold in America alone - this is very good result. Much more success the group has achieved in Scandinavia. Gorky Park in Norway took 9th place, and the single Bang - 5th. In Denmark, the album Moscow Calling even went platinum.

The song became the first track from Russia to get into the hot rotation of the BBC Radio One radio station. Then ResuRection was released in other countries, where it also charted successfully - 5th in the Netherlands, 9th in Belgium, and 15th in France and 36th in Australia.
6. Tattoo-2003
In 2002, the English version of their album "200 in the opposite direction" was released and "Tatu" became generally the most popular Russian group in the world. The girls did not become stars of the first magnitude, and their success was not so long, but they sold about 10 million of their records abroad. This is an unattainable result for Russian performers.
The English-language album is now gold in four countries and platinum in Europe as a whole, the song "All the Things She Said" occupied the first line of the British chart for several weeks, and the cover of The Smiths in 2009 sounded in the TV series "Gossip Girl".

Suffice it to say that in the West the Cathedral of Christ the Savior is known as Pussy Riot Church.
Shortly after the arrest of Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, Maria Alyokhina and Ekaterina Samutsevich, musicians around the world began to support them, ranging from Madonna and Paul McCartney to Mike Patton and The Knife and Die Antwoord.

What can not be said about Philip Kirkorov, Valeria Meladze, singers Natalie and Anita Tsoi, the groups "Beasts", "Splin". These artists are in demand and loved by the audience even today. Their concerts still attract millions of fans. And all this despite the fact that they also have the right to call themselves "old-timers of the stage."

The girl is the winner of the world famous festival "Children's New Wave". This is definitely a worthy replacement for the old-timers. Russian show business. Now you know which Russian performers are most in demand at the moment.
1 place. Vera Brezhneva
The 32-year-old singer and actress knows how to masterfully ... count. She grew up in a family where every penny was cherished, and with early years went to earn money - she traded tomato paste and pasta in the market. “When familiar guys passed by, of course, it was embarrassing,” Vera recalled. But I tried to ignore the sidelong glances and grins. I knew that I needed to help mom and dad. It was then that for the rest of her life she got the hang of quickly and clearly counting, after school she went to study as an accountant. She did not graduate from the university, but knowledge of accounting still helps. Vera associates a lot with numbers, remembers almost all the dates of significant events in her life, phone numbers, cars, etc. The singer helps the sisters keep financial records in their clothing store The Box in Kyiv. And she controls her own budget charitable foundation"Ray of Faith".
2nd place. Julia Lipnitskaya
After the Olympics, many fans filled up 16-year-old Yulia Lipnitskaya with poetry. “Whole collections were devoted to her, and she, of course, is very touched,” Daniela’s mother, the champion, shared by phone with StarHit. We read everything with gratitude. Previously, Julia was not fond of poetry, but now she has become involved. I discovered, for example, the "rebellious" poems of Daria Sklyarova ... "
Everyday training almost does not leave the athlete free time. She has no time to hang out with her friends or ride horses, and Yulia loves horseback riding. But she still manages to read. As the mother says, the daughter recently discovered Bulgakov's "Master and Margarita" - she liked it!
3rd place. Olga Buzova
Somehow, for the sake of interest, Olga “tried on” new images - Marilyn Monroe, Christina Aguilera. The experience turned out to be successful, but she admitted on social networks: “I like being myself more.” With every act, the 28-year-old TV presenter breaks stereotypes about blondes. It is no coincidence that she topped the rating of show business stars for the highest IQ on one of the Internet portals. She has no problem with ideas on how to make money: she came up with the C&C by Olga Buzova clothing brand, opened a jewelry store. From a participant in "House-2", as she dreamed, she grew into a leader. And she became the editor-in-chief of the magazine.

4th place. Ksenia Borodina
Looking at 31-year-old Ksenia Borodina, I can’t believe that some five years ago, after the birth of their daughter Marusya, a young mother and aspiring TV presenter were terribly complex about excess weight. I did not trust anyone to correct the situation - I figured it out myself. As a result, the book “Lose Weight with Ksenia Borodina” appeared, where she frankly admitted her own mistakes. Today Ksenia is preparing another book on how to become beautiful. “I decided to talk about ways to quickly put myself in order,” Ksenia shares with StarHit. “There is also a set of sports exercises that I developed myself.” Since the TV presenter checked every recommendation on herself, it's worth a try.
5th place. Alsou
In 2006, after the birth of her first daughter Safina, the singer became interested in painting. “I’m good at portraits,” 31-year-old Alsu admits to StarHit. - It is possible to catch something important in a person - a look, eyes. Back in school, I wrote an excellent exam paper about portraits in different techniques from ink to oil. Today there are already so many works that she dreams of her own exhibition, where there will be both a self-portrait and a portrait of her father. In the spring of 2012, the star put up for auction a portrait of Vladimir Vysotsky, it was bought for $16,000. Alsou donated all the proceeds to help hospitals and boarding schools.
6th place. Ani Lorak
When her husband opens another restaurant in Kyiv, 35-year-old Ani Lorak often participates in interior design and menu selection. “The restaurant business needs as much creativity as the stage. There are no trifles, ”the singer is sure. Neither tours nor rehearsals prevent the star from discussing ideas with her husband. Not so long ago, Murat opened his fourth restaurant in the city center - Famous karaoke. From the very first day, many stars fell in love with it - good friends of Anya. And when the idea occurred to her to decorate one wall with chic black and white portraits famous guests of the restaurant, no one objected, on the contrary, they posed with pleasure.
7th place. Albina Dzhanabaeva
“Albina, are you really going to work with us?” - senior students of one of the capital's schools asked the soloist of VIA Gra. But the singer simply had an internship with them as a student of the psychology department of the Moscow City Psychological and Pedagogical University. Vela month

In recent years, she was offered the role of heroes in cinema and theater with complex characters. And she managed to cope with them, because now the psychology of people has ceased to be a mystery to her.
8th place. Tatiana Navka
Traveling around Eastern countries inspired the 39-year-old figure skater to create perfume. She began to buy essential oils, combine them, achieving unique shades. The feature of her fragrances is the oil of the udu tree: the strongest aphrodisiac, which must be handled delicately so as not to overdo it. Several options have already been successful, it's time to open a perfume shop. This is the whole of Tatyana: no matter what she does, she will not back down until
will not become a champion, as in figure skating. And recently, together with designer Anastasia Hollandtseva and friend Lyudmila Mitvol, she released a collection of Sweet Stuff jewelry made of silver and semi-precious stones. The works resemble multi-colored lollipops, are made in Hong Kong, and cost from 8,000 rubles in Moscow stores.

But Katya, as soon as the shooting is completed, flies home - and stops rushing beyond the threshold. Together with 12-year-old Liza, 7-year-old Matvey and 5-year-old Korney, he watches a movie, discussing the actions of the heroes, and asks his sons how they studied English and karate. “We have complete harmony at home,” the actress assures.

Sobchak posts on social networks both fashionable "bows" and examples of the terrible bad taste of some ladies. And he personally conducts fashion master classes, where he gives good advice.
11th place. Christina Orbakaite
The singer has been collecting full houses all over Russia for many years, but with her star status she is very easy to communicate and can find mutual language with anyone. Somehow, 43-year-old Christina, along with the musicians, hit the road by bus. They were in a hurry to soundcheck, exceeded the speed limit - and were stopped by the traffic police. The director of the singer began to persuade the inspectors: "Please let go, we are taking Christina Orbakaite." They answered: “Come on, lie, we just saw her on TV!” And then Christina appeared from the depths of the cabin: “Hello, what happened?” The guards froze in admiration. Then they asked for autographs, took a photo with the singer as a keepsake and wished her a happy journey.
12th place. Adeline Sotnikova
After winning the Olympics, figure skater Adelina Sotnikova is called the "Legend at 17". After all, at this age she became the first Olympic champion in the history of Russia in women's single skating. Adelina has been considered a child prodigy since childhood. At the age of 13, she obtained the most complex elements that not every adult can do. Sotnikova devotes her free time to cinema. Recently, on the advice of my mother Olga Dmitrievna and coach Elena Buyanova, I watched the films "Champions" and "Legend No. 17". “It seems to me that coaches should feel students exactly the way Anatoly Tarasov - Valeria Kharlamova,” Adelina admired after “Legends ...”. - And as Elena Germanovna - me. Before the Olympics, Tatyana Anatolyevna Tarasova also advised me. Now I understand who she is - in her father!
13th place. Anna Sedokova
The singer is imitated by thousands of fans. To teach them how to dress in style, the 31-year-old artist launched her own line last year. fashion clothes La story in casual style. Especially popular is a sweatshirt with a big acid-colored heart and the inscription "Love -

Having got a taste, Sedokova recently shared on social networks: “I started to develop a children's clothing line, which will be an absolute mini-copy of my adult collection.”
14th place. Polina Gagarina
Driving around Moscow in a snow-white Range Rover Evoque, Polina, a driver with 10 years of experience, recalls with nostalgia the first car she drove at 18, a tiny Volkswagen Lupo: “I always liked the way I look in it.” After 5 years, she gave herself a Nissan Qashqai for her 23rd birthday - and with pleasure showed off a spacious trunk, which contained a gym bag, dry cleaning, spare shoes, her son's child seat, a soft horseshoe airplane pillow, a bath towel, a volume of Omar's poems Khayyama... Not a car, but a second home.
15th place. Christine Asmus
The 26-year-old actress easily got used to the role of a married lady, hostess and mother: on January 5, they had a daughter, Anastasia, with Garik Kharlamov. It turned out that Christina cooks with pleasure. Garik used to eat simply: for breakfast - fried eggs and cereal with milk and at any time of the day - fried potatoes. But the wife tirelessly seeks out something interesting. Often appears on online culinary forums, posting photos of custard pancakes or mouth-watering samsa that she cooks at home. She is not averse to watching football on TV - with her husband and even without him.
16th place. Sasha Savelyeva
Two years ago, the singer took up skiing. In January 2012, her husband, Kirill Safonov, suddenly offered to spend a vacation at a resort in Salzburg.
Sasha used to trust her husband: “I am the kind of person who needs to reach out for someone, learn something new ...” So he persuaded her to try. In Austria, dressed in a ski suit and trying on boots with bindings, Sasha rolled down the most gentle hill - and was delighted: “Really cool!” It turned out that this sport burns extra calories much better than fitness.
17th place. Svetlana Hodchenkova
Svetlana is the only one Russian actress, which managed to break into Hollywood and loudly declare itself. It all started in 2011 with the thriller Spy Get Out! with Gary Oldman and Tom Hardy. Khodchenkova had an episode, but participation in such a high-profile project made her one of the most
the highest paid actresses in the country with a fee of $4,000 per shooting day. By 2013, the figure had grown to $5,000 before the actress starred
in the fantasy action movie "Wolverine: Immortal" with Hugh Jackman and played one of the main roles - a female viper.
18th place. Natalie
The performer of the hits “The wind blew from the sea” and “Oh my God, what a man” admits: “I don’t work out in the gym, I’m sad in the company of irons.” She
I have long understood that cleaning the apartment helps a woman to keep in shape much better than exercise equipment. Especially if you wash the floor, crawling with a rag in all corners. Or you rub the windows, trying to reach the window - every muscle works. “Four years ago, when I was waiting for the birth of my second son, a neighbor caught me washing the floors in the entrance and was dumbfounded: “Natasha, you are an artist, and even in demolition, what are you doing!” – shared the 40-year-old singer with “StarHit”. - And I had such a strange toxicosis, in which I liked the smell of wet cement! Nothing is
I could help myself."
19th place. Anna Snatkina
Dancing in the life of Snatkina appeared in 2006 - when the actress was invited to television show"Dancing with the Stars", and she, paired with Evgeny Grigorov, took first place. During the project, the participants - stars and professional dancers - had to train a lot. Sometimes the staging of the number lasted until night. Despite this, “Dancing” inspired her so much that the artist still does not give up classes and goes to the gym at every opportunity. “After winning the show, in addition to slow dances, I have a weakness for Latin Americans, ”the 31-year-old actress says to StarHit. Anna and now spends every evening on favorite hobby from an hour to two. Such a pastime helps her not only stay in shape and tone, but also maintain a good mood.
20th place. Elena Podkaminskaya
The 35-year-old star of the series "Kitchen" loves experiments. Not only will she not refuse, for example, a nude photo shoot, but she herself will come up with a lot
interesting details. Once, having agreed to shoot for MAXIM magazine, Podkaminskaya offered to arrange it in the scenery of the bathroom and bedroom. “I wanted everything to look natural, as if the heroine was caught where you can really walk without clothes,” Elena explained to StarHit. By the way, the first to whom she showed the photos were the parents of the actress - the strictest judges. They liked it.
21st place. Elizaveta Boyarskaya
The actress was very worried when she was asked to arrange "Art Surf" - the first creative evening in her life with reading poetry, which 28-year-old Liza knows a great many. And before going to the resort area of St. Petersburg Komarovo, Liza rehearsed, reciting poetry several times to her only spectator at that time - her two-month-old son Andrei. Pushkin, Akhmatova, Tsvetaeva ... The loudest applause during her concert sounded after Apollon Grigoriev's poem “I love you ... What to do is to blame!”
22nd place. Oksana Fedorova
36-year-old Oksana has repeatedly donated money for the maintenance of churches, she often visits the Moscow church of Elijah the Prophet in Obydenky Lane. “Here I am distracted from the hustle and bustle and feel peace,” she says to StarHit. - In case of any difficulties, I approach my beloved miraculous icon Mother of God « unexpected joy", I pray for the health of children and loved ones." Three years ago, the recognition of the winner of the Miss Universe contest that she “begged for a child for herself” and went to the Diveevsky Monastery spread all over the country. And, as Oksana now likes to say, "according to faith, it will be given." In the spring of 2012, the son Fedor was born, and in the summer of 2013, the daughter Liza. “Only when I became a mother, I gained self-confidence,” Oksana admits.
23rd place. Ekaterina Guseva
Enthralled by the musical Nord-Ost, the polar explorers invited Ekaterina, the performer of one of the main roles, to visit the North Pole. 2002, at the pole - 43 ° C, from the cold and wind did not save even the eiderdown overalls. But, having hoisted a flag with the autographs of the troupe actors near the station, Katya sang a song from the performance: “Captains of our own destiny, it’s the trumpet signal that calls us ...” “How not to sing if the soul asks!” – then shared the 38-year-old actress. In Moscow, she had to treat her throat. But for her heroic performance at the Pole, Guseva was entered into the Russian Book of Records.
24th place. Lera Kudryavtseva
Recently, 43-year-old Lera Kudryavtseva voiced the Warface project, an online game that is gaining popularity. Gives commands to fighters, explaining to them the intricacies of tasks.

"Each dubbing is a game of intonations, the ability to express vivid emotions, a very exciting process!" – admits “StarHit” Lera.
25th place. Angelica Agurbash
The singer only looks fragile and defenseless, but in fact she has been seriously boxing for 10 years! Interest in this sport appeared soon after the birth of the third child - the son of Anastas. Angelica dialed then overweight, and boxing allowed me to quickly drop them and pump up my arms, press. The 44-year-old singer still finds time to “thresh a pear”.
