The name of one of the main blondes national stage abruptly disappeared from the headlines a few years ago. The pop diva left the stage silently, without giving a farewell concert and without explaining herself to the audience. The disappearance of Natalya Vetlitskaya, who recently celebrated her 50th birthday, was associated with her spiritual practices in India, sects, mysterious plastic surgeries and relationships with strongmen of the world this. SUPER managed to find out real reasons Natalia's departure from show business and find out what, where and with whom one of the brightest singers of recent decades lives.
Vetlitskaya radically revised her life at the age of 40, after the birth of her daughter Ulyana in 2004. According to a source close to the singer, she wanted to terminate her pregnancy. She was persuaded to leave the child by producer Viktor Yudin, who became recent years her right hand and a close friend. The name of the child’s father, Vetlitskaya, has not been made public to this day. Among her love victories were marriages with composer Pavel Smeyan, 90s pop stars Zhenya Belousov, Dmitry Malikov and Vlad Stashevsky, businessmen Pavel Vashchekin and Mikhail Topalov and oligarch Suleiman Kerimov. By the way, to this day Natalya’s affairs are in charge of the Swiss lawyer Kerimova. After the birth of the first child, similar to his mother blue eyes and blonde hair, the pop diva decided to leave the stage and Russia, moving to Spain. Finally move to the coast Mediterranean Sea The sex symbol of the national stage decided when the child was four years old. 
In an elite area of the Spanish town of Denia, right on the hill overlooking the azure waves and white sails, lies the singer’s estate. The young mother's choice fell on a two-story mansion in which she lives until her dream house next door is ready. There is also a “For Sale” sign on the gate of another property she owns nearby. Housekeeping is one of the most desirable women Russian stage a nanny and a gardener help. She had to refuse the services of a housekeeper due to the latter's unscrupulous spending habits.
Today Natalya avoids people, especially her compatriots. Her reluctance to interact with her fellow countrymen, for example, forced her to give up her membership in a local yoga center, where the owner was a Russian. Denia attracted the singer in many ways because of its contingent, where the number of Russians is noticeably lower compared to other regions of Europe.
Vetlitskaya rarely leaves the territory of her home: only occasionally does she go out, arm in arm with her daughter, into the surrounding area - the local port with restaurants and supermarkets. There she makes her own purchases, carefully choosing not only products, but also household chemicals. 
Yours family nest Vetlitskaya leaves several times a year for the sake of a pilgrimage to India. In recent years, she has been interested in retreats, spiritual practices and mental self-improvement. However, Natalya often attends Catholic mass celebrations in Spain. On the day of her 50th birthday, the singer did not leave the house: in a narrow family circle she drank a bottle of wine and, according to the source, concluded that she had everything to be happy.
So far she has not been able to master the language of Goya and Marquez perfectly. However, the daughter speaks Spanish fluently and is enrolled in a private school in a neighboring town. At first, Vetlitskaya personally drove Ulyana by car to her first lesson, but now the bus picks her up.
Every year, in August, on the eve of her birthday, Vetlitskaya’s phone is ringing with calls from journalists. While editors of various talk shows are in vain trying to persuade the star to give an interview, Andrei Malakhov simply congratulates the blonde on the holiday, having come to terms with her position after several categorical refusals. Vetlitskaya’s only channel of communication with the audience remains her LiveJournal blog, many of the posts in which at one time caused considerable resonance in the press.
Let us remember that Natalya Vetlitskaya began her career in the late 80s, becoming the lead singer of the legendary group “Mirage”. Having won millions of fans, the luxurious blonde set off on her own. In the 90s and 2000s, she was famous for her numerous hits and the most expensive videos at that time. 
Natalya Vetlitskaya gained real popularity in the 1990s, after she left legendary group"Mirage". The songs “Look into your eyes”, “Soul”, “Slave of Love”, “Moon Cat”, “Playboy” and many others performed by Vetlitskaya became real hits. Despite her success, Natalya left the stage in the early 2000s.

In addition, Natalia managed to be a participant in such famous groups like "Rondo" and "Mirage".
Sex symbol
In 1989, Natalya Vetlitskaya decided to leave Mirage and pursue an independent career. It’s interesting that by that time he had already recommended that she do exactly this ex-spouse Pavel Smeyan. After 3 years, Vetlitskaya recorded her debut album in her new capacity as a solo performer, “Look into your eyes,” which became incredibly popular. In the 90s, several more of her collections were published (including “Playboy” and “Slave of Love”), songs from which were constantly heard on television and radio. Attractive Natalya Vetlitskaya turned out to be one of the first sex symbols Russian stage. The stars of those years also paid attention to their colleague.

Vetlitskaya became interested in yoga and even married her trainer. At the age of 40, the singer gave birth to a daughter, whom the couple named Ulyana. Together with the newborn, the family moved to Spain for permanent residence. Today Natalya Vetlitskaya continues to practice yoga and even regularly travels to special courses in India.

For ten years, starting in 1977, she repeatedly took part in various ballroom competitions.
Graduated in 1981 high school No. 856 in Moscow. That same year, at the age of 17, she began working as a teacher. ballroom dancing.
At the same time, she studied vocals. They paid attention to her voice. Since 1985 she worked in the State Variety Orchestra of the RSFSR under the direction of famous composer Maxim Dunaevsky. It is Natalia Vetlitskaya’s voice that sounds in the backing vocals for famous song"Bad Weather" from the movie musical "Mary Poppins, Goodbye!" - she performed the song together with her first husband Pavel Smeyan.

Natalya Vetlitskaya and Pavel Smeyan - "Bad Weather"
In 1985, the disaster film “Unscheduled Train” was released, in which a song performed by Vetlitskaya was performed.
After leaving the orchestra under Dunaevsky, Natalya worked in various groups in different capacities.
At first, Vetlitskaya was a dancer in ballet. Then she joined the then popular group "Rondo" as a choreographer, dancer and backing vocalist, having recorded four solo compositions as a member of the group for the magnetic album “Rondo-86”, released in 1987.
For two years, starting in 1986, Vetlitskaya performed as a dancer and backing vocalist in the groups “Class” and “Idea Fix”.
In 1988 she became the lead singer of the group "Mirage".
Who worked at that time as an administrator of the Mirage group, assures that it was he who discovered Natalya Vetlitskaya to the general public. He said: “We met her in the mid-80s on tour in Saratov. I was then the director of the Mirage group. And she performed with her husband Pavel Smeyan and at the same time danced with Seryozha Minaev. One day I walked along the hotel corridor and saw , as a girl with a black eye flew out of Smeyan’s room, and after her - Smeyan sent the girl obscenities and locked herself in the room. She began hitting the door with her fists and calling him “an asshole” and other words. I calmed her down and asked: “ What happened?” “I am Smeyan’s wife,” she explained. “He was jealous of Minaev, beat me up and threw me out.” Since she was left on the street and had nowhere to go, I decided to take her to the Mirage group as a costume designer.” .
Later, when Razin quarreled with the group’s soloists (they allegedly demanded too high fees), he decided to try Natalya Vetlitskaya.
“And I convinced the producers of “Mirage” Andrei Lityagin and Sasha Bukreev to kick them out and put in their place Vetlitskaya and the wife of keyboard player Slava Gromadsky Tanya Ovsienko, who also worked as a costume designer for us. True, this was prevented in every possible way by the lyricist Valera Sokolov, who was madly in love to Razina. But I still achieved my goal. From the first day, when Vetlitskaya appeared with a black eye, I felt great potential in her, compared to these collective farmers Gulkina and Razina, Natasha looked like Mount Elbrus with a height of 5.5 thousand meters next to 100. - the meter-high Podkumok mountain. And how beautifully she danced better than anyone in the group! It’s not surprising that after “Mirage” she immediately became a star,” said Andrei Razin.

The public interpreted the disappearance of the star in 2004 in different ways: the spiritual practices in India that the singer has been engaged in in recent years, there were rumors about unsuccessful plastic surgery, about the influence of the sect she fell into. But in fact, after the birth of her daughter Ulyana in 2004, Natalya Vetlitskaya simply decided to start a different life.
The singer decided to leave for Spain forever, and there, on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea, she settled in a two-story mansion. It is located in an elite area of Denia.

She has a gardener and a nanny to look after her daughter.
The singer rarely leaves her home - only to go shopping.

Enjoys yoga. Constantly visits India. Believes in reincarnation.
“Nothing happens in our lives just like that, everything is according to the will of God. There are certain higher powers who guide us. Everything is natural and has been thought out for a long time, you just need to be able to listen to your inner voice. It seems to me that we come to Earth to gain experience, the soul must grow,” the artist is sure.
"We are all constantly changing. Every seven years a certain cycle ends, I was convinced of this at own life. These seven-year cycles of life change a person all the time. Much depends on the person, on his individual desire to change, grow, and learn. It all depends on your aspirations human soul. If she is attracted by beauty and harmony, then so be it. But there are souls who are attracted by dirt and destruction. Personally, I want to live in beauty, I love everything beautiful, and I want to surround myself smart people and beautiful circumstances. I don’t want to live in dirt, squalor, in disharmony with my inner and outside world", says Vetlitskaya.
Loves cars: “I can say that I fanatically love good cars. I like to drive a car, I like to drive, I relax behind the wheel.”
Natalya Vetlitskaya is known for her sharply critical attitude towards Russian authorities and the current order in Russia.
In August 2011, Natalya published a “fairy tale” on her blog, which supposedly described a closed concert in the winter of 2008 for government members at a remote and “secret” residence. The article critically describes the organization of the concert in general and, in particular, the behavior of the artistic director Kremlin Palace Peter Shaboltai. The article also ironically describes how the singer was awarded the title “People’s Artist.”
The article caused a great resonance in the press and after some time was deleted from the singer’s blog. After urgent requests from fans, the singer returned the publication to her page on the social network Facebook.
Natalia Vetlitskaya's tale about a closed corporate event for government officials
According to the singer’s story, a certain high-ranking official called her and invited her to perform for free at a Very High Corporate Event for One Very Important Person. She heroically won the fees for her sound engineer and hairdresser, and she herself went to perform “for nothing.” However, the customer promised to reward the singer with a valuable gift, which turned out to be a pair of diamond earrings.
Judging by Natalya's remark about " bitter cold", it was in the winter at one of the deeply secret state facilities, like a dacha complex in some kind of wilderness. According to Vetlitskaya, they had to go “far away.” The artists were first transported to the place on a “secret train”, which stopped at “a secret platform without identification marks” and signs of life right in the middle of the thicket. Then the concert participants were taken by bus “along secret forest roads” to the base itself.
“It was forbidden to walk through this secret base in the evening, although in the morning it was possible, but only along certain paths. For example, my hairdresser had to walk only along path number such and such, and God forbid not to turn anywhere, and from such and such until such and such a minute, because people with guns walk everywhere and can shoot at... if anything happens,” this is how Vetlitskaya describes this place.
The venue where the concert was to take place was only a five-minute walk from the house where the artist was staying, but she was still taken there in a car that was “all covered in flashing lights, with a trunk filled to the brim with some unknown equipment.”
The room where she was taken had an area of 50 square meters, and everyone was herded there - singers, dancers, and other participants in the event. Everyone was packed like sardines in a barrel, there was literally nowhere for an apple to fall, “the stuffiness was simply unbearable,” says Vetlitskaya: “The only place was found on one of the steps, measuring 30x30.”
The unknown organizers warned that under no circumstances should you address the audience with welcoming speeches or say anything between songs. “Be silent. This is a protocol event. You will come out silently, sing and leave just as silently,” they personally told Natalya.
As it turned out later, there were only six spectators - men in tailcoats, two at a table, and even "on background loomed a small group of people dressed in ball gowns from Catherine's times."
“Vascheeee. I almost forgot the lyrics out of disappointment; I have never met such a small audience,” the singer shares her impressions.
After the performance, she hoped to return to the room, but everyone was told to remain in place until the end of the concert, when the “audience” finally went to dinner. As has already been said, everyone was prohibited from moving around the territory of the complex, so we had to wait at least two more hours for “freedom.”
What happened next is best presented in an accurate account by Natalia herself. “The concert ended safely, I was almost in my coat, and suddenly the command was heard: “No one should change clothes and go backstage.” It turned out that now the guests wanted to sing with the artists, but with which ones they haven’t decided yet, supposedly decisions will come according to progress of the play."
The only one Vetlitskaya specifically names is the general director and artistic director of the State Kremlin Palace - according to her, it was he who managed everything related to the concert. We must assume that this is Petr Shaboltai, who has held this post since 2000.
The singer speaks about him in the most unflattering terms. “There is no angrier, nastier, more misanthropic and boorish creature in Russian show business. Those modest turns of phrase, which I sometimes use only to add flavor, look, against the backdrop of the speech of this “monster,” simply like the most tender singing of birds. When I heard him talking to artists, I got one only wish- shoot him right on the spot,” she shares.
According to her story, when “the guests wanted to sing with the artists,” Natalya turned to this person.
“I approach the “monster” and naively say: “Well, most likely, I’m not needed, they’re unlikely to want to sing about eyes and cats, there are artists here with a more suitable, patriotic repertoire. Maybe I’ll go?" To which I receive an icy look and a stream of selective, rude abuse. What kind of bullshit is this, some old fucking fucker, slurping his stinking senile mouth, spews all over me this diarrhea, for no reason, and like “thank you, why didn’t you hit me in the face”? Honestly, I’ve never met such a rare bastard.”
This whole epic ended with a “buffet with guests” and dinner with them.
"These six people enter the mansion in down jackets, over tailcoats, and in fur boots. The distribution of incentive prizes begins. For actress O - a diamond necklace; for artist D - a mantel clock; for artist N - wrist watch; to artist B - I don’t remember; artist M - guitar; artist L - a printed icon in an expensive frame."
“It should be noted that by that time artist L had already managed to relax fairly and was in a playful mood. Having received the icon as a gift and having drunk another glass, he turns to the main benefactor with a request to leave an AUTOGRAPH on his gift! Well, just think, well, an autograph, well, on icon, well, especially from the tsar himself, what’s wrong with that? Well, you understand what happened to everyone here, “crying” is an understatement,” says Natalya.
Then it was the turn of a certain “very great artist,” as Vetlitskaya calls him. A “large wooden varnished box” was prepared for him, inside which everyone expected to see nothing less than a “crown from the royal bins.” But to the disappointment of the audience and, most of all, the artist himself, it turned out to be just a travel set for playing cards.
But still, the main surprise awaited this “great artist” ahead. A man in a golden camisole from Catherine’s times, who at the very beginning called Vetlitskaya with an invitation to participate in the concert, solemnly presented the artist with a certificate stating that he had been awarded the title People's Artist Russia.
“You should have seen our artist at that moment, an unforgettable spectacle. I was as happy as a child, by God. It turns out that a creatively fucked up person doesn’t need much to practically “shit himself with happiness”! I think that if he was presented with the coolest crown of the coolest bins, he would have been a billion times less happy with it than with this “filka letter.”
The singer concludes her story in the following words: “Well, in general: no one was offended, the dinner was delicious, the jokes were funny, the Tsar was just charming. Amen”...
In 2012, after the death of her father, nuclear physicist Igor Arsenyevich Vetlitsky (1935-2012), who worked for 54 years at ITEP, Natalya in her blog accused Rosatom head Sergei Kiriyenko and ITEP director Yuri Kozlov of persecuting her father, financial fraud and deliberate collapse of the nuclear industry.
In October 2015, in an article on the Echo of Russia website, she sharply criticized the spiritual, informational and political atmosphere in Russia.
In February 2016, she wrote on her Facebook page: “Watching the “cotton wool”, I noticed one common similarity - they are all, as if by choice, stupid and tongue-tied.”
“Russia is a great country, it’s just that too little time has passed since all this communist history. I believe that we are developing at a rapid pace, and if our country does not suffer another misfortune in the form of the specter of communism, then Russia in the foreseeable future will become very developed country"- says Vetlitskaya.
He is involved in charity work. Since 1999, she has regularly provided financial assistance to children of psychoneurological hospital No. 4, located in the village of Nikolskoye, Ruza district, Moscow region.
Natalia Vetlitskaya's height: 168 centimeters.
Personal life of Natalia Vetlitskaya:
The artist's first husband was a singer and composer. At the time of their meeting, Vetlitskaya was only 17 years old, she was engaged in ballroom dancing and gave choreography lessons. Smeyan is 7 years older than her. He was the artistic director of the Rock Studio and performed songs in cult Soviet films. He immediately liked the beautiful dancer and began to court her. Soon they got married. Natalya took his last name.
Then they started performing as a duet. However, their family life didn't work out. Smeyan began to get involved in alcohol and raised his hand to his wife. Once he beat Natalya so severely that she called the police - Smeyan faced a prison term, but she took pity on him.
Dima Malikov - ex-lover Natalia Vetlitskaya
Many years later, in 2013, Dmitry Malikov shared with the public his memories of his affair with Vetlitskaya. According to the musician, his relationship with the singer did not work out, since both of them were “selfish people from a creative environment.” “It’s very difficult to get along together like this. At some point, Natasha realized that she needed another man - not so fixated on himself. She made me understand this and eventually forced me to put an end to our relationship,” Malikov said.
Dmitry called ex-lover a bright and talented girl. “After our breakup, her creativity went up. The song “My soul will sing to me at the end of the day that love has passed,” which I wrote for Natasha, turned out to be a little autobiographical,” he pointed out. Some time after breaking up with Natalya, the musician met his future wife Elena.
True, at that time there were rumors that Malikov and Vetlitskaya broke up due to passion the last singer. They had an affair that lasted about a year. Then they got married on New Year's Day 1989, but official marriage lasted only 10 days, they divorced on January 10, 1989.
Bari Alibasov, who was a witness at their wedding, later said: “Honestly, I still didn’t understand why he was imprisoned at all. Yes, before that they had a close relationship. At that time, I still lived in Zelenograd. And they several times the two of them came to me in Zelenograd. They even stayed overnight. This mating period lasted for almost a whole year. But, perhaps, by the time they got married, everything had already boiled over.”
According to Vetlitskaya herself, she married Evgeniy out of pity, in order to turn away the pestering girl who dreamed of getting Belousov as her husband.
For five years she was married to fashion model Kirill Kirin, who later worked as an administrator for Philip Kirkorov. He starred in the singer’s video “Look into your eyes.” However, the marriage with Kirin was quite possibly fictitious - the singer at that time had to decide housing issue in Moscow.
Then she had a relationship with businessman Pavel Vashchekin, who invested a lot of money in the promotion of Natalya Vetlitskaya.
Her next hobby was a singer. He was ten years younger than her and called Vetlitskaya by her first name and patronymic. A few months later they broke up.
She was in a relationship with a billionaire for a long time. At this time, she performed only on television filming and at expensive corporate events, where she was paid 30-40 thousand euros. From her relationship with Kerimov, she was left with expensive real estate (for example, in an elite village near Moscow New Riga- a mansion of 3000 square meters) and an airplane.
Suleiman Kerimov - former lover of Natalia Vetlitskaya
She also lived with businessman and producer Mikhail Topalov (father of Vlad Topalov).
Since the late 1990s, Vetlitskaya began to become interested in Eastern philosophy, became a follower of the teachings of Kriya Yoga, and began attending trainings in India, indulging in spiritual practices. There she met her fourth husband, yoga instructor Alexei.
In 2004, she gave birth to a daughter, Ulyana. And in 2008 she left Russia. He is engaged in painting and interior design; he has no plans to return to show business and does not plan to return to his homeland.
In 2018, Natalya Vetlitskaya complained that her daughter faced bullying at a Spanish school because she lived in a star family. Ulyana studied in a regular Spanish school. “Why are children so angry and cruel towards each other? Where do they have time to learn it? They brought my defenseless Firefly to such a stressful state that she doesn’t want to go to school. I wish I could finish this damn school, this damn “childhood devourer” quickly, and forget how bad dream. I hate schools,” the singer complained on social networks. “Russian-speaking redneck children from high school who speak only swear words and, apparently, at the suggestion of the same redneck parents, are frowned upon for famous surname. She's alone there with these freaks. And there is no one to intercede. The animals are natural. And the girl simply does not want to adapt to the animal herd instincts. That’s not what I taught her, that’s why they’re swearing at her,” the singer was indignant.
Ulyana is the daughter of Natalia Vetlitskaya

Natalya Vetlitskaya - singer, actress, TV presenter, native Muscovite, born 08/17/1964.
Childhood
Little Natasha most likely inherited her musical abilities from her mother, who was a music teacher and played the piano beautifully. And the girl learned to take everything she does seriously from her father. He was a talented scientist who studied nuclear physics.
But the girl’s first serious hobby was ballroom dancing. IN dance studio she started studying back in elementary school. But her mother insisted that her daughter also learn to play the piano, and Natasha also had to go to music school. But Natasha had no plans to connect her life with music.
Moreover, after completing her studies at both schools, Natasha began working as a ballroom dancing teacher in a private children's studio. Moreover, almost all of her childhood the girl performed at various competitions and quite often won dance awards. The girl liked performing in front of the audience, but then she began to realize her dreams in her students.
Start of a career
Natalia began her professional artistic career by accident. She came across an advertisement for a dance casting. The ballet “Recital” needed new dancers, and Natalya decided to try her hand. She herself was surprised that she was immediately included in the main team. There the girl tried her hand as a choreographer. But Natalya only worked with them for about a year.
The reason for leaving Recital was an invitation to join the Rondo group, which was then rapidly gaining popularity. At first, the girl worked there as a choreographer, and she herself took part in the backup dancers. But when the group found out that she sang beautifully, Natalya began to appear on stage as a singer.
But Natalya did not stay long in “Rondo”. She recorded several songs with them, which were included in the collection “Rondo-86”, and then said goodbye to the group. After that, she changed several more groups, where she was mainly on backing vocals, but that’s not what the girl dreamed of anymore. Now she wanted to become a famous singer.
Finest hour
The road to musical Olympus Natalia discovered, strange as it may sound, cinema. The girl was invited to perform several songs for the film “Mary Poppins, Goodbye!”, which very quickly became popular. And songs from it were heard in almost every home. True, then no one was interested in the name of their performer.
But for this work, Natalya was offered a small role. In the film “Above the Rainbow” she not only sang, but also appeared in a small episode. This was followed by another film, Unscheduled Train. And soon, with one of the popular film songs, Natalya is invited to shoot herself music program USSR "Morning mail".
Natalya is finally noticed by famous producers, and within six months she becomes one of the vocalists women's group"Mirage". It was this group that brought real popularity to the singer. The girls were youth idols of the late 80s, and entire stadiums gathered for their concerts. “Mirage” toured almost continuously throughout the entire former USSR for several years.
Solo career
But in the early 90s Vetlitskaya left the group. The reason for her departure is not known for certain. Some believe that she began to have serious disagreements with the group’s producers, others attribute the singer to an affair with, who in 1992 shot her one of her first solo videos. But, most likely, Natalya simply decided that she was already popular enough to perform on her own.
In 1996, Natalia presented her first solo album and has been touring quite successfully for several years with solo concerts, periodically appearing on television screens. She is constantly invited to the filming of “Blue Light”, she regularly gets into “Song of the Year”.
But by the beginning of the 2000s, the singer’s popularity gradually began to wane. Another film with her participation helped to stir up interest in the singer. In the musical “The Snow Queen” Vetlitskaya got the role of a princess. Then two more videos were released, and that was the end of her musical career. Currently, the singer is actively involved in charity work.
Personal life
The personal life of Natalia Vetlitskaya began early and has always been stormy. Her first husband was Pavel Smeyan, who at that time was already popular singer. It was he who initiated the singing career of Natalia, who was barely 17 years old at the time of this marriage. But soon she found her husband with one of the fans and filed for divorce.
Soon Natalya began a passionate affair with the handsome young man Zhenya Belousov, who at that time was at the peak of his popularity.

The relationship developed rapidly, and just a few days after they met, the couple walked down the aisle. This marriage was the shortest in the singer’s life - they officially remained married for only a couple of weeks. In total, the romance did not last even three months.
However, Natalia's passion for handsome men turned out to be indestructible, and her next husband is the famous Moscow fashion model Kirill Kirin. But this marriage did not last even two years. After which Natalya was already limited to civil relations. IN different times she was a friend of Topalov Sr., Vlad Stashevsky.

In the early 2000s, her then common law husband millionaire Suleiman Kerimov invested considerable funds in making the singer popular again. But their relationship quickly ended, and with it the funding ended. Vetlitskaya did not have time to fully take advantage of this chance.
She is currently in her fourth legal marriage to a yoga trainer, to whom she gave birth to a daughter in 2004. The singer does not regret that she completed musical career. She is now completely devoted to her family and charitable activities.
The singer, who moved to live in Spain, cannot sell her house of 3,000 square meters in New Riga, which was left to her after a breakup by a famous oligarch, at its real price.
One of the brightest pop stars of the 90s, Natalya VETLITSKAYA, has not appeared on television for a long time, does not participate in social events and does not communicate with journalists. She only reminds of her existence with poisonous posts about show business and politics on LiveJournal and others. social networks. We decided to find out where the favorite of many disappeared Russian men, and turned to those who worked and communicated with her.
- It was I who once opened Natasha Vetlitskaya to the general public,” the legendary producer did not fail to boast Andrey Razin. — We met her in the mid-80s on tour in Saratov. I was then the director of the Mirage group. And she performed with her husband Pavel Smeyan and danced at the same time Serezhi Minaeva. One day I was walking along a hotel corridor and saw a girl with a black eye fly out of Smeyan’s room, followed by a suitcase. Smeyan swore at the girl and locked himself in the room. She began hitting the door with her fists and calling him an “asshole” and other words. I calmed her down and asked: “What happened?” “I am Smeyan’s wife,” she explained. “He got jealous of Minaev, beat me up and threw me out.”
Since she was left on the street and had nowhere to go, I decided to take her into the Mirage group as a dresser. Soon, on tour in Almaty, I quarreled with the lead singers of the group Natasha Gulkina And Sveta Razina. They got me. They demanded an increased wages– 50 instead of 25 rubles. Although they just opened their mouths to the “plywood” of Margarita Sukhankina. And I convinced the producers of Mirage Andrey Lityagin And Sasha Bukreeva kick them out and put in their place Vetlitskaya and the keyboard player’s wife Slava Hromadsky Tanya Ovsienko, who also worked as a costume designer for us. True, the author of the texts prevented this in every possible way Valera Sokolov, who was madly in love with Razina. But I still achieved my goal.
From the first day, when Vetlitskaya appeared with a black eye, I felt great potential in her. Compared to these collective farmers Gulkina and Razina, Natasha looked like Mount Elbrus with a height of 5.5 thousand meters next to the 100-meter Mount Podkumok. And how beautifully she danced! Better everyone in the group! It is not surprising that after “Mirage” she immediately became a star.
Unfortunately, her secret oligarch husbands, who gave her money for expensive videos and television broadcasts, actually drowned the artist in her. These owners were jealous of her at every post and did not let her go anywhere. They wanted her to stay at home. “Well, why don’t you tour? – I asked her once. “You are so popular.” “My husband doesn’t allow me,” she replied. Natasha has not crawled out of this quagmire to this day. She crossed out everything. Leads a closed lifestyle. As artistic director of the Olympic Committee and director of the International Olympic Festival, I tried several times to arrange her concerts. But it was no use.Wedding night for four
— On the New Year 1989, I had the opportunity to be a witness at the wedding of Natasha Vetlitskaya and Zhenya Belousova, who started in my group “Integral,” another legendary producer reminisced Bari Alibasov. — The second witness was the Integral illuminator Andrey Popov. First, Zhenya and Natasha and I went to the registry office in one of the working-class districts of Moscow. We walked for a long time along the gray identical streets with identical Khrushchev-Brezhnev houses. Then they came to Natasha’s one-room apartment to celebrate the wedding. Apart from the Christmas tree that stood in the middle of the room, there was absolutely nothing in the apartment - no table, no chairs, no bed. I remember we drank champagne and vodka from a bottle and spent a very long time looking for something to lie down on. In the end, they laid some kind of rag on the floor and the four of us spent our wedding night on it. Popov and I’s presence did not hinder the newlyweds at all. Since there was practically no snack, after drinking they passed out and forgot about their marital duties.
And nine days later, the marriage of Zhenya and Natasha ended successfully. To be honest, I still don’t understand why he was imprisoned at all. Yes, they had a close relationship before that. At that time I still lived in Zelenograd. And the two of them came to see me in Zelenograd several times. They even stayed overnight. This mating season lasted for almost a whole year. But perhaps by the time they got married, everything had already boiled over.
In the early 90s, Natasha formed a very successful tandem with a businessman Pavel Vashchekin. With his help, she filmed “Look into Your Eyes” and a couple more interesting clips, having become the founder of a certain style in music and video. No one had ever done anything like this before. It was very original, impressive and fresh. The image she created of a successful socialite later adopted Ksenia Sobchak and many other media personalities.
But I haven’t seen or heard from Natasha herself for many years. They say that she became a recluse and devoted herself either to charity or to some kind of spiritual quest. However, in lately many artists who made their mark in the 90s are not seen or heard. This is the problem of our show-mother!-business. Talented people are simply washed out to clear the way for someone's new protégés.Sperm donor
“We unexpectedly became friends with Natasha Vetlitskaya 13 years ago,” said the singer Tatyana Antsiferova. – She was brought to my house by the lead singer of the Kalinov Most group. Dima Revyakin. He said that Natasha is a longtime fan of mine and really wants to meet me. At that time she was living in a civil marriage with Suleiman Kerimov. But she never told me anything about him or about her other men. We communicated mainly on musical themes. For example, I always really liked the singer Mine. I've been following her since the 60s. And Natasha, as it turned out, was also interested in her work. She even had Mina's notes that I didn't have. This immediately endeared her to me.
When Natasha broke up with Kerimov, I introduced her to Misha Topalov. He was then promoting the group “Smash”, asked me to do vocals with the guys and often came to see me. On one of his visits, Natasha happened to be my guest. They began a passionate relationship. They even talked about a quick wedding. But in the end, something didn’t work out.
The last time we saw Natasha was in 2009. Her daughter Ulyana was 5 years old at the time. The girl was very beautiful - fair-haired, blue-eyed. Both Topalov and Kerimov were attributed to her as fathers. From whom Natasha actually gave birth to her, I don’t know. Maybe she even used donor genetic material from a data bank. One of my students gave birth to a daughter this way. I went somewhere and chose. No one knows where dad is. Information from the data bank is not disclosed. Maybe Natasha did the same.
She now lives with her daughter in Spain. According to her, living abroad is calmer. From time to time I receive links from her on social networks - either to some photographs, or to excerpts from yoga, or to advice on how to “let go of the brain.” But I communicate with her extremely rarely. We somehow grew apart from each other. Despite the fact that my health does not allow me to perform, I still continue to make music. And Natasha lost all interest in her. Once, friends from Israel sent me their songs. I asked Natasha for advice on who to offer them to. “I cut ties with everyone in show business,” she replied. “I’m far away from all this now.” It was very strange for me to hear this. If music is your calling, it seems to me that you can’t just pick it up and throw it away. Maybe Natasha will also shudder and remind everyone of herself. Personally, I'm very sorry that she doesn't sing anymore. Our stage is full of musical “hillbillies” that I hate. And there are practically no such intelligent “urban” singers as Vetlitskaya.Ofigela from Kerimov
“I think I’m one of the few who have recently communicated with Natasha Vetlitskaya,” suggested famous composer and an arranger who asked not to be named in the newspaper. – She has always been a person of mood, and keep with her good Not everyone succeeded in relationships. Our acquaintance began back in the mid-90s. Natasha then broke up with Pasha Vashchekin and hung out with Vlad Stashevsky, with whom I collaborated. When Stashevsky recorded with Arkady Ukupnik at the studio at Olimpiysky, she constantly came and left with him. I often went to his apartment, where he lived with his mother. She brought him gifts. And then they suddenly quarreled to smithereens. They had a joint concert at the Harlekino club in the Cinema Center. And Vetlitskaya had a conflict either with the make-up artist or with the costume designer, who did something wrong.
And the producer of Stashevsky Yuri Aizenshpis had the temerity to interfere. Natasha freaked out and started yelling at him. It almost came to a fight. After that, she no longer communicated with either Aizenshpis or Stashevsky. Even her director got it from Vetlitskaya Andrey Chernikov, who had worked with her since the days when she lived with Dima Malikov. “Natasha sometimes beats me,” he complained to me. - When does she have Bad mood, she’s going to punch me in the face!”
Having met Suleiman Kerimov, Vetlitskaya did not hide her delight. “I was blown away by what kind of person this is! - she told me. “He doesn’t spare anything for me.” He gives me bags of money.” But the material benefits that fell on her also had a downside. Once Stashevsky mentioned in an interview that Vetlitskaya was his mistress. Kerimov became furious and began to attack Aizenshpis: “What kind of bullshit is this?!” You owe me 100 thousand dollars in compensation. If you don’t bring this money in two days, I’ll kill you.” Aizenshpis, who usually threatened to kill and bury everyone himself, was so scared that he went to the hospital with a heart attack. As Vetlitskaya said, Kerimov was not pleased with her director Andrei Chernikov. “Who is this bald fagot hanging around next to you? – he was indignant. - I hate fagots! Get him the hell away!”Gradually, Natasha practically stopped communicating with her show business colleagues. She performed only on television filming and at expensive “reserves”, where she was paid 30-40 thousand euros. And then, according to Vetlitskaya, Kerimov tensed: “What the hell are concerts?! How much do you need? "Half a lemon" of dollars? Take it and don’t go anywhere!”
And four years ago Natasha and her daughter moved to Spain. Her house is located on the coast opposite the island of Ibiza. She said that she bought it at a big discount - almost half the price. It was just the height of the crisis then. Real estate prices collapsed. And she successfully took advantage of this situation.
During our last conversation on the phone, Natasha complained that she wanted to sell her house in New Riga, which Kerimov left her, but could not find a buyer. Her house is huge - 3000 square meters.All stuffed with electronic stuffing. As they say now, “smart home”. You can, say, being in America, press a button, and the cameras will show who went where. A house like this costs a lot of money. Well, who will buy it? The price needs to be greatly reduced. However, Natasha is determined to get rid of Moscow real estate. “I’m not going to return to Moscow,” she said. “There’s not much to do here.” I'm already tired of show business. I don’t want to be like Alla Pugacheva or Sonya Rotaru. They are already old ladies. But they go on stage for the sake of money. Why do I need this? I have no problems with money. I just live for my own pleasure."
