31-year-old Anastasia is in her second marriage. She has two children.

So, the third "Factory"...Probably my favorite. Although she was not remembered for scandals or particularly extravagant personalities, I watched her with particular pleasure. The third season of the project is distinguished by the friendliness and solidarity of the participants. Most of the guys maintain close communication so far.

I think the most scandalous at the "Star Factory-3" was its producer. Alexander Shulgin was invited to Channel One shortly after a high-profile divorce from Valeria. While the project was going on, Shulgin, however, behaved dignifiedly and nobly (at least on camera), only at the final concert in the Olympic he distinguished himself by making an offer to Yulia Mikhalchik right on stage. At the end of the project, Shulgin simply left the wards to their fate: he was not engaged in tours or promotion. Soon, the restless ex-manufacturers were taken under his wing ...... how surprising, Joseph Prigogine! After six months of inactivity, the guys finally started touring. Victor Drobysh took up the promotion of two groups - the girls' "Tootsie" and the boys' "KGB". Superhit Nikita Malinin "Kitten" sounded from every iron. Mikhalchik became interested in the wake of the novel and hasty parting with Shulgin. The name Svetikova by that time spoke for itself. However, no one succeeded in a dizzying career ... I will remember all the participants.

Ksenia Valeeva

From the "Factory" spectacular red-haired Xenia flew out first. And I almost didn't remember. It is known that she was engaged in dancing in the Helios + nightclub, performed in the Kursk dance group"Swallowtail", won the Miss Helios contest and won the Miss Grace title at the Lady Perfection contest in Orel. Participating in the Miss Kursk contest, she entered the top ten finalists.

After the "Factory" she entered GITIS in the workshop of Oleg Kudryashov. After graduating in 2010, she got a role in the feature film "Crimea" by Igor Shirokov, but it never appeared on the screens. For some time she worked as a model and was listed in some acting agencies. But then she completely disappeared from sight. Probably, at some point, the girl was tired of appearing in public. According to her former colleagues, Ksenia is now married, raising her son and leading a family lifestyle, and is also seriously interested in yoga and is engaged in business.

Nikolay Slichenko

The grandson of the famous Slichenko literally begged to take him to the project. But he did not last long: he was expelled second for his wayward character and modest vocals. Oddly enough, little is known about the grandson of Nikolai Slichenko. After the “Factory”, young Nikolai was in a creative search, and then followed in the footsteps of his family - he entered GITIS, from which he graduated in 2009. For some time he played in the university theater, but then he moved to India (Goa), from where he returned as a completely different person.

Anastasia Krainova

At the end of the project, Anastasia was taken by one of the soloists of the Tutsi group. However, Nastya also left the team in 2010. She went into a unique solo project, positioning herself as "the first singing DJ." She even had her own website djkraynova. True, after some time, the girl was not enough with one DJ console, and she nevertheless decided to go back to big stage. But has not yet been successful.

As an actress, Krainova took part in the filming of such series and films as “Happy Together” on TNT, “Club” on MTV, “Narrow Bridge”, which was filmed by Channel One. Graduated from Gnesinka. Today Nastya writes songs on her own own composition.

Shortly after Krainova began an affair with married actor Alexander Nosik, he left the family. But soon he broke up with Anastasia.

Irina Zhelnova

Before the project, she sang in the Ataman group. It has acting education. After the "Factory" disappeared from view. In her native Ulyanovsk, she became the winner of the "Best Enterprise Economist" contest.

Oleg Dobrynin

Before "Factory" he was a professional musician, soloist of the group "A-Mega". After the project, he continued to write songs for the band. Graduated from GITIS. He performed in the Pokrovsky Ensemble.

Maria Weber

After the project, she sang as part of the Tootsie group, but when Masha became pregnant, Viktor Drobysh decided to say goodbye to her (although Weber later returned). In Masha's personal life, everything did not go very smoothly.

They met Parviz Yasinov through mutual friends. And in early 2006, rumors about Masha Weber's pregnancy leaked to the media. There were also rumors that Parviz was to blame for Weber's dismissal from the group: he allegedly, having learned about Masha's situation, forbade her to go on tour. Weber was ready for anything for her boyfriend, she even converted to Islam! In the same year they played a wedding according to secular and religious rites. A few months later, Weber gave birth to a son, who was named Oscar. However, already in 2007 they divorced, Parviz left his wife for the singer Yulia Volkova. True, this union did not last long either. Today, Masha continues to record songs and raises her son Oscar, is engaged in business, but does not cover her personal life.

Sofia Kuzmina

He plays piano and flute. After the project, he tries to continue his career. He works a lot on developing his vocal abilities and musical skills, writes songs and music. According to Sonia, she does not want to become one of the one-day pop artists, but wants to give the world something of quality. Sonya is gradually moving towards her goal, and her father, Vladimir Kuzmin, supports and gives her good practical advice.

Roman Barsukov

After "Factory" he entered the boy trio "KGB". But the group failed to develop normally, and after 2 years Viktor Drobysh disbanded the project. Now he is the frontman of the group with the speaking name Put'IN. Takes part in music festivals.

Olesya Yaroslavskaya

Trained as a vocal teacher. After the Star Factory project, Lesya, along with Irina Ortman, Anastasia Krainova and Maria Weber, became part of the Tutsi pop group. In 2008, she became pregnant and went on maternity leave, returned to the group after the birth of her daughter. Since 2010 has been working solo career. Few people know, but the singer was invited to Dom-2 as a host, but then the artist preferred music. Married to a military man.

Dmitry Golubev

By education, a journalist. In his youth, he sang in the group "Boys" in his native Ivanovo. After the dissolution of the group "K.G.B." I tried to record solo songs, but did not achieve much success. I met with my wife Yana even before the "Factory". In 2013, the couple had a son, Jaromir. Golubev is the owner of the Ivanovo bar "The Seagull".

Irina Ortman

Before the project, she actively made her way to the star Olympus: she worked at the Renat Ibragimov Pop Song Theater, was a member of the White Eagle group and collaborated with the teams of Alexander Malinin and Alexander Buinov. Among other things, Ortman was familiar with the guys from the Virus group. time they had a joint dance program... In 2002, she participated in the competition " New wave” in Jurmala and even managed to get into the semi-finals.

According to rumors, she came to the casting of "Factory" with her friend Prokhor Chaliapin. After the project, until 2010, she sang in the Tutsi group. Over the next two years, Ortman released videos for the songs: “Slowly” (2011), “Forever” (in a duet with Alexander Kireev, 2012), “There is something in you” (2012). Now he continues to write songs.

Ruslan Kurik

Rocker from Jurmala after the project began to act in films. In April 2007, the first film was released with Ruslan in the title role ("One Love in a Million").
Ruslan can also be seen in the series "Young and Happy", "Alice's Dreams".
One of the successes is the main role in the film "Favorite Daughter of Papa Carlo" (2009). At the moment, he is the soloist and leader of the No Smoking group. Recorded a solo album.

Svetlana Svetikova

I got into the project, already being a star. Behind the shoulders of the young singer were the main roles in the musicals "Metro" and "Notre Dame de Paris" and the role in the TV series "Three Against All". After the "Star Factory" she continued to develop her career as a musical actress. One of the most striking performances of Svetikova was a show in the format of a rock opera, where Svetlana played the role of Teresa in the production of The Star and Death of Joaquin Murieta. A series of films of different genres followed, including “Happy Together”, “New Year's SMS”, “Gloss”, as well as the interactive format of the series “Alice's Dreams” - here Svetikova did not have to play a character, she starred in the role of herself, like others participants. She played a major role in the film "You Can't Catch Us." The debut experience in scoring cinematography was reflected in the animated production of The Little Mermaid. Also, 2003 was marked by the participation and victory of Sveta in the television project "Fort Boyard". Svetikova played together with the team in the musical "Notre Dame de Paris".

Svetlana actively participated in the recording of soundtracks, including "Kamenskaya", "Alice's Birthday", etc. A year later, she starred in the filmed show " Last Hero where she won 3rd place. Svetikova was also noted in the "Heart of Africa", "Big Races", and in "Dancing with the Stars" she performed in tandem with Alexander Baurov. After dance show appeared in the television project "Ice and Fire". In 2015 Svetlana Svetikova takes part in popular show"One to One".

In her youth, she met with Garik Kharlamov. For a long time she was the girlfriend of actor Andrei Chadov. In 2013, Svetikova introduced her civil husband to the public - figure skater Alexei Polishchuk. Two children.

Julia Mikhalchik

Multiple winner of vocal competitions. Collaborated with the production center of Viktor Drobysh. Soon Mikhalchik's song "White Swan" was already on the air of Russian radio stations, and a year later a video was released. At the same time, the premiere of Yulia's first video "With Ice" took place. At the Five Stars festival, the singer becomes the owner of the Grand Prix. Tried to qualify for Eurovision 2008. In 2009, Julia played Charlotte in the rock opera Perfumer. Records solo albums.

At the "Star Factory" Yulia Mikhalchik had an affair with Alexander Shulgin. The contestant was not embarrassed by the 20-year age difference, scandalous divorce Shulgin with Valeria. The singer was in love and said that they would soon get married. But even in relations with Mikhalchik, Shulgin showed character. The couple quickly broke up.

At one time, rumors appeared in the media about Julia's romance with singer Yevgeny Anegin, with whom the singer was associated with creative obligations. And in 2012, journalists learned that the singer got married. Husband Vladimir Goev, who is two years older than the singer, has nothing to do with creativity and the stage, the young man is engaged in business. In March 2013, Yulia gave birth to her wife, Alexander's son. Four years later, information appeared in the media about Yulia's separation from Vladimir.

Alexander Kireev

Plays the violin and piano. Studied directing. After the end of the project, Kireev teamed up with two members of the Star Factory, Dmitry Golubev and Roman Barsukov, into the KGB group. In parallel, Alexander Kireev worked for other performers: Natalia Podolskaya, Vadim Kazachenko, the Tutsi group. After the dissolution of the trio, he pursued a solo career. He won the "Five Stars" contest, in which the audience voted for him, sat on the jury of youth music competitions and festivals, and was the host of the "Question to backfill" program on the Karusel channel.

He recently admitted that he almost left show business and went into marketing. Alexander organized his own business in the field of IT and Internet commerce, tested and implemented training programs, and at the same time created clips.

Even on the wave of fame that hit after participating in the Star Factory, Alexander Kireev met future wife Arina. Since then, the couple has been inseparable. Arina is a graduate medical school, works as a cosmetologist. Two children.

Nikita Malinin

Born into a family famous singer Alexandra Malinina. When Nikita was 2 years old, his dad left the family and went to Olga Zarubina. As a child, he appeared in a Pepsi commercial. In 1998, the young man played the guitar in the Oho-ho group and toured with concerts.

After winning the "Star Factory" participated in international competition World Best. In 2007, Malinin met DJ Nejtrino and tried his hand at dancing. Later released a joint project DJ and singer called "DJ Nejtrino & Nikita Malinin". Nikita's singing career quickly began to decline. In 2015, he unexpectedly appeared in the One to One project.

Since the 9th grade, she has been dating her chosen one Natalia. In 2008, the couple got married. Have a baby.

She dreamed of getting into the world of show business, and she succeeded. In 2003, the girl reached the finals of "Star Factory 2". But the popularity of the aspiring star quickly faded. Gradually, everyone forgot about Masha Rzhevskaya. How was her life?

Masha Rzhevskaya: biography

She was born into a family of artists on March 27, 1987 in Moscow. Together with her older sister Xenia, she studied music since childhood. Also among the girls' hobbies were swimming, billiards and tennis. The sisters have two younger brothers, Fedor and Viktor.

Having become a ninth grader, Masha Rzhevskaya, together with Ksenia, went to the casting. There was a set for "Star Factory 2" under the leadership of Max Fadeev. Maria successfully passed the audition, and her sister, taking her mother's surname, tried her luck a year later. became a member of "Star Factory 4".

Project

Once in the team of Max Fadeev, Masha Rzhevskaya stood out from the rest. Her frantic energy, artificial fangs and bright, memorable appearance fell in love with both producers and viewers.

Every day, classes were held with the participants, and fans were looking forward to the releases of the video diary of the heroes. Masha Rzhevskaya confidently reached the final, but she did not manage to get into the top three.

Solo songs

The compelling image of an aspiring star was a huge success. Her songs "When I become a cat" and "Why did I wait for you" were awarded the rotation of Russian radio stations. Folk love gave these compositions high places in the ranking.

Scandal with the producer

Max Fadeev offered Masha Rzhevskaya long-term cooperation and filming clips for her songs. By that time, she already had several singles in Russian and English.

But there was a serious conflict between the singer and the producer. She left the studio.

Actor career

The project helped the artist to reveal her creative potential, she decided to try her hand at acting profession. Her career includes the following works:

• The series "33 square meters".
• Narenji (2012).
• Film Heart aspirations (2014).
• Let the Die Be Cast: Initium (2014).

In the credits of foreign projects indicate the pseudonym of the actress - Maria Kaya.

Personal life

"Star Factory" often reduced the fate of people. Masha Rzhevskaya found her love on the project. She met the director of the ARS company, Vyacheslav Kormiltsev, who became her husband.

Together they moved to London, raising their daughter Maria Frederica. Their family life full of harmony and stability. Mom, actress and singer Masha Rzhevskaya works in the theater. In 2017, she graduated from Parsons Fashion design in Paris and develops interior designs.

At one time, the popular project "Star Factory" released a lot of talented artists, for whom participation in the competition became a kind of lucky ticket into the world of domestic show business. Dozens of young performers toured the country, performing hits that are still well remembered by the fans of the project. Someone after the "Factory" managed to build a dizzying career, and someone disappeared from sight and began to live an ordinary life in which there was no place for glory, applause and articles in the press. StarHit decided to recall those participants in the Star Factory, whom the whole country once spoke about, but now, speaking of modern pop artists, few will name their names.

The audience remembered this girl well at a very young age. When Alexandra Chvikova appeared in the fourth season of Star Factory, almost every second teenage girl in the country looked up to her. The charming singer sang songs in a very touching manner and in general created the impression of a girl from a good family who got the sea parental love. Plush toys, with which Alexa invariably appeared both on stage and at various shootings for magazines, have become a kind of hallmark of the young performer. The girl in an instant won the hearts of numerous spectators and became an example to follow. It was during the period of Alexa's participation in vocal competition there was a fashion for velor tracksuits in delicate shades, lip gloss to match skin color and a touching image of a romantic person. Many people remember such hits as “Moon Path”, “Where are you” or “I live by you”, performed by 16-year-old Alexandra. In a word, back in 2004, Alexa was literally wildly popular, but after a couple of years, everything ended in an instant. The singer, who was considered promising and very talented, at some point simply disappeared from sight. A few years later, the girl again tried to make herself known in the musical field by signing a contract with Yana Rudkovskaya. With the help of a famous producer, the girl released an album and a video for the song "Vendetta", however, soon this composition, and the entire album, were forgotten by the Russian listener. Many music critics it was assumed that the failure was connected, first of all, with a sharp change in the image of the singer. Alexa appeared before the public as a very liberated girl in short defiant outfits. In addition, the 26-year-old singer asked for help plastic surgeons to enlarge lips. The image chosen by Alexandra Chvikova did not please the public. Now the Star Factory-4 star lives an ordinary life, which he reports in detail on Instagram. Sometimes a girl even publishes short videos in which she performs world hits, and thereby finds a certain response among subscribers.

In the fourth season of the Star Factory project, the daring Anastasia Kochetkova appeared, who instantly gained popularity among viewers. The daring manner of performing songs and a peculiar voice with a characteristic hoarseness brought Anastasia fame and recognition from the public. For the three months that the TV project lasted, Kochetkova repeatedly demonstrated strength of mind and character. Soon the girl became part of the Banda team, which successfully recorded an album, released video clips and toured the country. In addition, in the team Nastya was the only girl, which gave her image also the features of a sort of hooligan-robber. During one of her performances, the obstinate brunette drew attention to a blue-eyed man who did not take his eyes off her. It turned out to be director Rezo Gigineishvili, who by that time had become famous for his very successful film works. The couple soon formalized their relationship, and in this marriage a girl, Masha, was born. Three years later, Anastasia and Rezo divorced, and since then the girl has practically not been heard from. Not so long ago, however, Kochetkova recorded the song “I am not me” and released a video for it, but she still failed to return her former glory. Now the 26-year-old performer is raising eight year old daughter and rarely appears in public. In addition, Anastasia stopped communicating with almost all the musicians who could previously be safely called her friends.

The strong voice and piercing performance of Yulia Mikhalchik was remembered by the viewer for the participation of the girl in the third season of "Star Factory". For the sake of participating in a popular project, the young artist even dropped out of her studies at the university. The blond performer fell in love with the audience from the very first reporting concerts. The girl showed herself as a very able-bodied and gifted singer, and in an instant she gained popularity with hits of her own composition. Many visitors to karaoke clubs are still happy to order Mikhalchik's songs "With Ice", "Well hello, Peter" or "White Swan". Yulia herself, after participating in a television show, continued to actively perform at corporate parties and in various concert programs or rock operas for some time. In March 2013, the artist first became a mother, having given birth to her son Alexander, and for some time completely disappeared from sight. True, a little later she nevertheless stated that she did not intend to interrupt her singing career. IN currently little is known about the life and work of Yulia Mikhalchik. The girl stopped appearing at major events, her songs are heard less and less on the air of domestic radio stations, and the younger generation does not know about her at all. Perhaps, in the foreseeable future, Mikhalchik will loudly declare himself again, but so far she is practically unheard of.

The blue-eyed bully Anton Zatsepin became famous thanks to his participation in the Star Factory-4 project. The blond performed songs in a special manner that set him apart from the rest of the participants, and even won third place. Popular Anton Zatsepin remained for several more years, but soon healed ordinary life, in which there is practically no place left for the stage. To sing Anton's hits "Shorter", "Books of Love" and "Broad River", which he presented in a duet with Nadezhda Kadysheva, perhaps everyone who once watched "Star Factory" can. However, at some point, the young artist simply disappeared. Only in 2008, Anton again reminded of himself by releasing a video for the new song "I'm Flying Away", but this did not help him regain his former glory. Zatsepin happily married, became the father of a charming girl Martha and disappeared from the charts. True, the song "Wide River" is still played on Russian Radio from time to time. By the way, in 2004 this composition took first place in the hit parade of this radio station "Golden Gramophone". Last year, Anton Zatsepin once again reminded of himself and released a new song "You Know". The 32-year-old artist signed a contract with the Good People record label and began touring with the Zatsepin. Return". Anton also records new songs, but music critics claim that he gathers at his concerts only those who were once interested in his work. Attract a new audience, according to critics, Zatsepin has not yet succeeded.

Alexandra Balakireva

The little red-haired Alexandra Balakireva was remembered by the audience for her strong voice and bright appearance. Her appearance at the "Star Factory-5" played a significant role in the career of an extravagant vocalist. It was there that the young artist won the audience's love and recognition. In addition, on the TV project, the girl met Victoria Daineko, communication with which grew into a great and strong friendship. A few years after graduation television show Balakireva was unable to declare herself as an independent creative unit. For some time there was still a group "Kuba", working in which the girl sang the famous "Cat and Mouse" and "Pro little boy", but in 2009 the team ceased to exist.

Periodically, Alexandra Balakireva performs at small events, but still does not release new songs. The girl plans to record the first solo album, but for many, those hits that Balakireva sang while being a member of the Star Factory - “I will do everything” or “Engaged with the wind” are still known. Alexandra Balakireva can most often be seen at events that are somehow connected with the work of her best friend Victoria Daineko.

At one time, at the casting of the First Channel project "Star Factory-3", Alexander Kireev was noted as a bright performer. The young man performed quite touching love songs, which were written by himself during the period of participation in the competition. The blue-eyed brunette quickly gained popularity and audience love. Images of Kireev were found on school notebooks, in magazine posters, on various key rings and stickers. Photo of this young performer hung on the wall of almost every third teenage girl who watched Star Factory. And under his songs circled in slow dancing in love with children summer camps. In a word, at the end of the popular TV project, Alexander Kireev was in sight for some time, but soon ceased to appear as a social events as well as on TV screens. Only occasionally a name young artist could be heard talking about the new songs he had written for his "factory" comrades. Now Kireev performs extremely rarely. Increasingly, the 34-year-old graduate of the Star Factory declares himself more as a composer than as a singer.

The groovy blonde with a non-standard figure was not immediately noted by the jury. Elena Kukarskaya managed to pass the casting, largely due to the fact that Alla Pugacheva drew attention to her. The prima donna personally insisted that the young performer be taken and given a chance to express herself on the show. During her participation in the Star Factory, Elena performed a lot of songs that firmly entrenched in leading positions in various country charts. Many now willingly sing in karaoke or dance at events to the incendiary hits “Po little”, “Zhu-zhu” or “Pianist”. Already at the end of the project, the young artist fell under the wing of Maxim Fadeev. Celebrity Producer signed a long-term contract with her and wrote many songs for her. For several years, Kukarskaya performed on the same stage with such eminent artists as Soso Pavliashvili, Valery Syutkin, Vitas, Professor Lebedinsky and the Prime Minister group. However, soon the girl began to look for herself in other areas of activity. So, for example, in 2007, Elena announced herself as an aspiring actress, starring in the television series of the MUZ-TV channel “Love is not show business”. And after a couple of years, Elena admitted that she would also like to try her hand at directing. In 2009, the contract of Elena Kukarskaya with the production center of Maxim Fadeev expired, and she went to free swimming. The girl is always willingly invited to act as a member of the jury of various beauty contests, where, in fact, most often she can be seen. In September last year, Elena became a mother for the first time, having given birth to her son Fedor. Since then, the 31-year-old artist has completely disappeared from sight. True, it is possible that soon Kukarskaya will decide to re-assert herself and release another hit.

On the radio station "Russian Radio" you can still hear hits performed by Yuri Titov. A graduate of the "Star Factory-4" at one time won a special love of the audience and popularity thanks to the songs "Pretty" and "Forever". Many still remember well this modest and at the same time artistic young guy, who brightly declared himself at a popular music competition. Is it true, creative career Yuri Titov at some point interrupted. The musician from time to time made some efforts to re-assert himself, but the glory returned to him for a short time. Most recently, the singer appeared at the casting musical project « main stage". Yuri made a bet on the jazz performance of the song, which was unusual for him, but still did not pass the selection. Behind the scenes of the show, the music editor of the project Andrey Sergeev jokingly pleaded: “Yura, why do you need this? How long can you go to auditions? “I can’t do it differently, this is a way of life,” Titov answered him.

Among former manufacturers there are many who decided to try their hand in another direction. Young singers willingly become composers, actors and models. This happened with Maria Rzhevskaya. The graduate of the "Star Factory" at one time was remembered by the viewer for her own style of performance and a very strange appearance. The girl appeared before the public with extended fangs, thereby creating the image of a vamp girl. The hits “When I become a cat”, “Why did I wait for you” and “Bye-bye” are still well known and remembered by fans of the music competition, but nothing has been heard about Rzhevskaya’s new material for a long time. While cousin"manufacturers" Ksenia Larina actively performs and tours the country as an artist of musicals, Rzhevskaya herself acts in films. Maria has been repeatedly involved in the filming of American short films, and soon the premiere of a full-length film with her participation in the title role is expected. True, the tape "Let the Die Be Cast: Initium" can be attributed more to the art-house cinema. However, like the pictures in which Rzhevskaya played earlier.

Group "Tootsi" // Photo: ITAR-TASS / fotoimedia

Tootsie

The decision to assemble a team of singing graduates of Star Factory-3 was once made by the well-known producer Viktor Drobysh. It was he who initiated the creation of the Tutsi group, which initially included five girls at once: Irina Ortman, Maria Verber, Anastasia Krainova, Olesya Yaroslavskaya and Sofia Kuzmina. True, the daughter of Vladimir Kuzmin left the team even before his debut on stage. Undoubtedly, the song "The Most-Most" has always been the main hit of the Tutsi group. It was she who brought the love and recognition of the audience to the four girls. A little later, the girls released a self-titled album, which was not as successful as expected. For several years, the voices of charming performers sounded on the air of various radio stations exclusively with the song "The Most-Most". With the same hit, singers were invited to corporate parties. Already in 2006, the Tutsi group began to lose popularity. The girls performed with new compositions, about which music critics spoke impartially. Many felt that the girls began to perform songs, the lyrics of which contained a number of jokes, as they say, below the belt. A few years later, the Tootsie group failed to repeat the success of the first hit, and in 2012 the team broke up. True, Irina Ortman and Lesya Yaroslavskaya are still trying to build a solo career, releasing songs and video clips from time to time.
