Vera Brezhneva is an outstanding singer, actress, TV presenter and model. She writes books and does charity work. Her captivating beauty, fantastic vocal data, artistry and charisma have created an army of fans. And their number only increases every year. After all, she never tires to please the public with her songs, clips and movie roles. But the path to national love and fame was long and difficult, and everything that the girl has today is the result of her hard work.
Childhood and early years
Vera's real last name is Galushka. In it, the historical homeland of the girl is clearly seen. She was born in a small Ukrainian town of Dneprodzerzhinsk (now Kamenskoye) on February 3, 1982. Her parents had nothing to do with creativity: her father worked at the Pridneprovsk chemical plant, her mother - at the metallurgical plant. In their family there were 4 children: the eldest Galina, the middle Vera, two younger twins Victoria and Anastasia.
From an early age Brezhneva loved to dance, attended clubs, performed in school plays. A little older, addicted to sports: engaged in sections of gymnastics, handball, basketball, karate. With great pleasure attended music school, although at that time did not even think about a career as a singer. Interestingly, in her younger years, Vera considered herself an "ugly duckling": high height, short haircut, old-fashioned clothes, glasses because of poor eyesight. She was not at all popular among her peers. Even at the graduation she was not lucky enough to be - poverty was a hindrance.
When the girl was 11 years old, her father was in an accident. Multiple surgeries and rehabilitation period - big expenses. Vera started working to help her family somehow. Cleaning the park, saleswoman at the market, babysitting, part-time waitressing - the girl grabbed every opportunity to earn a penny. She was not afraid of hard work, and it was it that allowed her to bring up a strong personality and indestructible character.
With the same assertiveness as to work, Brezhneva treated Brezhneva and self-development. Entering the correspondence department of the Faculty of Economics of the Dnepropetrovsk Institute of Railway Engineers, she enrolled in courses secretary-referents, intensively studied English, got a driver's license, mastered computer science. Then she forgot about her childhood dream of becoming an artist. But a happy accident turned her life around.
Vera in the golden lineup of "Viagra"
Once at the city festival of Dnieper performed a very famous group "Viagra". To perform the cult hit "Attempt No. 5" they invited everyone on stage to sing with them. Vera on emotions took a place in the front row. She sang and danced so well that she conquered literally everyone: both performers and the audience. Then the manager of the group took Brezhneva's contacts. And what was the girl's surprise when she was invited to the composition instead of Alena Vinnitskaya, who decided to start a solo career. Not being able to professionally neither sing nor dance, Vera was attracted by her beauty, magnetism, energy. Moreover, the producers knew that "a poor girl from Ukraine is ready to plow" even for a little money. They gave her a chance. And the artist used it to the full!
In 2003 she moved to Moscow and performed for the first time as part of "Viagra". It was then that she took the creative pseudonym "Brezhneva". Having worked in the group for 4 years, she turned into a real star. The sexy blonde fell in love with millions of viewers. The collective released hits one after another, shot clips, songs occupied the top positions of the charts. Their exhausting labor - constant moves, studio recordings, press conferences, shootings - was rewarded with success. They rattled all over the CIS, their album "Stop! Cut!" sold 500 thousand copies and was awarded the "Golden Disk".
After Nadezhda Granovskaya's departure, the members of the group began to change constantly. And in 2007 came the moment when Brezhneva also said goodbye to "Viagra".
Solo career
After leaving the group in her creative biography there was a small pause. About a year she spent in Kiev. But in 2008 she came back to Moscow as a presenter of the TV program "Magic Ten". With the return to show business on Brezhneva fell on Brezhneva different proposals. The talented beauty was welcomed everywhere.
She began a solo career. "I do not play", "Nirvana", "Love in the big city", "Summer always!", "Love will save the world" and other of her songs immediately after the airing became hits. She distinguished herself and dancing abilities - took part in the show "Ice Age". Maxim magazine recognized her as "The Sexiest Woman in Russia".
At the height of her popularity, she made her debut in cinema ("Sorochinskaya Yarmarka", 2004), and her first feature film was "Love in the Big City". She got the lead role, with which Vera Viktorovna perfectly coped. Then followed several more films, where she played at the level with professional actors.
The demand for the singer did not fade. She took part in the improvisation show "Yuzhnoe Butovo", led the program "Dembel Album" on the radio, came as a guest in various TV programs. At the same time continued to write songs and shoot videos. And each of her creations once again confirmed that Brezhneva has a lot of talent.
Personal life
The first serious relationship was in early youth. Then Vera lived in a civil marriage with Vitaly Voychenko. At the age of 19, she gave birth to a daughter Sonia. But soon the couple broke up.
In 2006 her husband became Mikhail Kiperman, a well-known millionaire businessman in Ukraine. Three years later they had a daughter Sarah, and a year later the couple officially registered their marriage. But it lasted only a couple of years.
The next chosen one became a famous Russian producer Konstantin Meladze. They were long acquainted, they were often noticed in the same company. How long their relationship lasted before the wedding, they hide. It is only known that in 2015 they secretly got married and Italy. As the singer admits, "only with this man she managed to feel like a real beautiful woman".
Today, Vera Brezhneva does not cease to surprise her fans: she stars in films, clips, performs at concerts and festivals, realizes herself as a presenter, releases albums. She manages to be a great mom, a good wife, remains an insanely attractive woman.
