How old is Allegra's daughter in a year? “Beloved Husband” Allegrova

YEREVAN, February 5 - Sputnik. The famous Russian singer of Armenian origin Irina Allegrova got married four times, and each marriage has its own special story, writes Channel Five.

Today, 66-year-old Allegrova rarely performs, and for “reserves” she sets a fee of 4 million rubles. Allegrova's daughter Lala is her director and manages all affairs. And grandson Sasha is studying and will soon become a diplomat.

Irina spoke in the program “My Truth” on Channel Five about how she fell in love for the first time with a neighbor’s guy.

“If I fell in love, then head over heels. Baba is in love, she’s wearing rose-colored glasses...” the singer admitted.

Then she decided to take a desperate step - she married Baku’s Alain Delon, basketball player Georgiy Tairov. To spite the neighbor guy who was going to marry someone else. The athlete was head over heels in love with the future Russian pop star, but Allegrova herself was sure that they were different people.

“We were completely different people. But it’s useless to try to dissuade me. I always believed that I had to get big on my own,” the artist explains about the quick wedding against the will of her parents. From Tairov she gave birth to a daughter, Lala.

However, Allegrova was never able to love her husband and filed for divorce. The singer’s daughter was raised by her grandfather, since Irina left Baku for Moscow to conquer the Russian capital.

“From my early youth I was an ambitious comrade, I wanted to go forward and conquer,” says Allegrova.

She sang in Moscow restaurants, and later was able to transport her parents and daughter to the Russian capital. The director of the Young Voices ensemble, Vladimir Blekher, saw Irina at an audition and fell in love. She agreed to get married, and her husband lived for a long time without money. The singer shared that she stood at the stove at night.

“I baked cakes to order of amazing beauty, at night. Then the dream was born to open my own bakery someday,” noted Allegrova. But this marriage ended with Blecher’s arrest - he was accused of currency fraud.

After this, Allegrova had to decide on an important step: bake at night, help her convicted husband, or become a Soviet pop star. Then the singer again decided to divorce.

The actress's third husband was producer Vladimir Dubovitsky, who invited her to become not only a soloist of the Moscow Lights ensemble, but also to become his wife. Then the modest brunette turned into a fiery blonde, just as her producer husband wanted.

The whole country fell in love with the daring blonde Allegrova. The singer wanted a solo career, but her husband saw her in a group. Then the brave Armenian woman went against the will of her husband and divorced him.

“For those close to us, our divorce was nonsense... I think I would have turned into a very good wife,” the singer noted.

Allegrova began performing as a solo artist, performing the hits “Wanderer”, “Photography”, “Toy”. Then she started her own ballet, in which her future fourth husband, Igor Kapusta, danced, eight years younger than the singer.

Irina stole her lover from his common-law wife. In 1994 they got married. The couple lived together for six years, but conflicts destroyed the family. Later it turned out that he cheated on Allegrova. And the singer said that Cabbage had been sitting on her neck for all six years.

Singer Irina Allegrova before the concert "Song of the Year"

After the divorce, Allegrova had a nervous breakdown. Having recovered, she began a relationship with Alexei Garnizov, because after the young dancer she wanted to see an adult next to her.

But this relationship did not bring happiness to the singer; she became addicted to alcohol. Then her daughter Lala saved her, breaking off all contacts with Garnizov. Today Allegrova is a free and happy woman. According to the singer, she has everything she dreamed of.

The title of People's Artist was given to Irina Aleksandrovna Allegrova very difficult. Her path to fame was long and thorny, but in the end she achieved what she wanted, despite all the difficulties. Now Allegrova is a famous actress and pop singer. “Crazy Empress” is how you can describe this amazing woman. In Irina Alexandrovna’s personal life, not everything is going smoothly either, but she does not lose heart and moves forward, as before, with her head held high.

Allegrova's relatives are mostly artistic. The singer's parents are very creative individuals. Alexander Allegrov was an Honored Artist of Russia and the Azerbaijan SSR; in the world of art, this man established himself as a talented actor and director. Being of Armenian origin, Alexander Grigorievich in his youth had the surname Sarkisov, but along with the fame of the actor, he came up with the idea to change it to the surname Allegrove.

Irina’s mother was no less talented and famous. Serafima Mikhailovna Sosnovskaya’s career couldn’t have worked out better. She had an operatic voice, sang and acted beautifully on stage. It is clear that their daughter has inherited acting and vocal talent.

Continuing to list eminent ancestors, one cannot help but recall Grigory Minaevich Sarkisov, his grandfather on his father’s side. At one time he was a famous musician in Baku, and even managed to work as an accountant. His wife Maria Ivanovna was a heroine mother, she gave birth to seven children. She had nothing to do with music; her job was to raise heirs. Grandfather and grandmother on my mother’s side were simpler people. Mikhail Yakovlevich Kalinin was famous throughout Tashkent for his talent as a shoemaker. His wife Anna Yakovlevna worked in a hairdressing salon.

Childhood of Irina Allegrova

“The Empress” was born in Rostov-on-Don in 1952 on January 20. In the same city, Ira went to school until she was nine years old. Then the entire Allegrov family moved to Azeybarjan. In Baku, the father and mother of the future star conquered the stage of the local musical comedy theater, their daughter tried to keep up with them, trying to become the same famous artist. Moreover, they always had a large number of eminent guests in their house such as Magomayev, Khachaturyan, Shmyga and many others.

The first thing the girl did upon arrival in Baku was to enter the music school at the conservatory. Ira was so talented that she was immediately enrolled in 3rd grade. At the entrance exam, she amazed the committee with a perfect performance of one of Bach's works.

In addition to music, Allegrova was seriously involved in ballet, participated in various festivals and competitions, taking first places. In a word, the schoolgirl’s life was in full swing!

The choice that determined the future of life

Naturally, after the high school graduation, the girl went to enroll in the local conservatory. All her close people were sure that Irina would easily pass the entrance exams and begin her studies. Unfortunately, the plans were disrupted by illness, due to which Allegrova was unable to come to the exam. Despite the obstacles, she did not deviate from her choice, but for now she got a job doing voice-overs for films.

The hard path to fame of Irina Allegrova

The vocal abilities of the young singer were appreciated by Rashid Behbudov. Being the head of the song theater, he enrolled Ira in his team. Then her first tour and work in the Yerevan orchestra awaited her. Tours have become an integral part of Irina’s life.

Although Allegrova was already in the musical world, the thought of studying could not get out of her head. She really wanted to enter Moscow GITIS, but she did not succeed. Still, fate had mercy on her and “introduced” her to Igor Krutoy. At that time, the talented composer was a pianist at the Fakel VIA, where Irina also worked.

Producer Vladimir Dubovitsky helped Allegrova take a significant step on the path to fame. It was he who convinced the famous Feltsman to write a wonderful musical creation, “The Child’s Song,” especially for his protégé. This allowed the young singer to perform at “Song of the Year-85”.

"Electroclub"

Next, Irina had to take another step up to popularity. She is taken into the group “Electroclub”, which is led by David Tukhmanov and which was considered an already well-known ensemble. In addition to Allegrova, the soloist of the Electroclub was Igor Talkov.

After a little time, the singer, having left the band, began performing solo. His place was given to Viktor Saltykov. This change brought the group stunning success. “Electroclub” brings together full halls and stadiums at its concerts. With the beginning of the nineties, Allegrova makes the difficult decision to leave the group and pursue a solo career. As it turned out later, the decision was correct.

Long-awaited popularity

During this difficult time for the singer, she was lucky enough to enter into a collaboration with Igor Nikolaev. The composer writes the song “The Wanderer” for Irina, which instantly becomes a hit. To ensure that the fire of long-awaited popularity does not subside, a whole series of hit works appear that are still successful. This glorious list includes the following songs: “Womanizer”, “Transit”, “Photography”, etc.

Then her longtime friend Igor Krutoy joins Allegrova’s career. His songs take the singer to the top of Olympus. It is worth noting the following mega hits: “The Hijacker”, “The Empress”, “An Unfinished Novel”, “My Wanderer”, etc. In addition to concerts and tours, Irina appears in music videos, which makes her even more popular. What Allegrova had been striving for all her life had finally come. She was at the top of the musical Olympus!

The swing of life - up and down!

It's time to talk about the personal life of the famous singer. A beautiful, talented, successful woman tried more than once to build her family nest and become a beloved wife. Let's try to break it all down now:

  • Allegrova lived with her first husband for only a year, but during this time she managed to give birth to his daughter Lala. Georgy Tairov was a handsome man, a basketball player, but the singer believes that marrying him was a mistake. She married to spite another man. Now George is no longer alive.
  • For the second time, the pop star went down the aisle with the director of “Jolly Fellows.” Vladimir Blekher was her husband for 6 years, then the marriage broke up. Vladimir was convicted of currency transactions; in the seventies this was considered a serious crime.
  • From 1985 to 1990, Allegrova lived with Vladimir Dubovitsky. He significantly contributed to the artist’s advancement to fame. Together the couple looked great, but in 1990 the singer filed for divorce and left her husband.
  • Having decided to live with a man under the same roof for the fourth time, Irina flatly refuses to walk down the aisle with her chosen one. She was only in a civil marriage with Igor Kapusta. The relationship lasted from 1994 to 1999. The guy was very handsome, worked as a dancer in Allegrova’s group and knew how to look after beautifully. After breaking up with Irina, fate was not kind to him. In 2012, he was caught selling drugs.

The singer did not want to experiment anymore with family happiness. According to her, life in terms of love threw her, now up, now down, like on a swing.

A daughter and grandson are the meaning of life!

Allegrova never considered herself lonely. She has a wonderful daughter and beloved grandson Sasha. Lala works as a director of variety and mass shows, her husband Artem Artemyev is a co-owner of the Artemyev Wrestling School. He himself is an excellent athlete - a judoka and sambist. Irina was lucky with her son-in-law, as well as with her daughter and grandson. His career was also successful. What else is needed for happiness?

Lala

The first love of the still very young Ira did not work out. The guy did not appreciate the talents of the still simple girl from Baku - neither vocal nor gastronomic. Left Irina. However, the beautiful and ambitious girl had other admirers. One of them, basketball player Georgy Tairov, in order not to miss the beauty, soon proposed to her. Out of anger, hating her first boyfriend, she agreed. Having decided to take revenge on her beloved, she did not think that she would hurt the feelings of another person.

But she was never able to live with her husband. She persuaded herself that she would endure it and fall in love and even set herself up to build a family home. But pregnancy next to an unloved person did not bring the couple closer. The man felt that his wife was moving away, and more and more often lingered somewhere in the evenings. A few months later, Irina asked to return to her mother. Six months after Lala’s birth, the couple divorced.

Teplokhodik

Mom took care of Lala, and Irina decided to conquer the capital. The first steps were not successful. She told her mother on the phone that she had no end to groups, and she wandered around Moscow, trying to get a job as a singer in a restaurant. The first attempt ended in failure: the director promised to give the new girl the entire repertoire as soon as she went with him to the dacha. Allegrova created a temperamental southern scandal in the restaurant. She swore at the lustful boss, and in the end she threw her hat at him. So she went out into the cold, uncovered.

But the next attempt was a success. Irina began to sing with the young musician Vladimir Bleher. He was attentive to the young girl - he looked after and cared for her, treated her relatives in Baku with understanding and often let her go to see her parents and daughter. Irina appreciated such a warm attitude.

One day, Blecher invited a colleague to take a boat ride on the Moscow River, and there he got down on one knee and opened a box with a ring in front of a charming blonde. She agreed. And only after registration it turned out that Vladimir was looking for a classic housewife in Irina, who would sit at home and cook dolma for her husband. Allegrova is a delightful hostess. But she wanted to pursue a career and had no intention of staying at home.

Triangle


When everyday life began to overwhelm both of them, problems arose in their joint creativity. Meanwhile, Irina was noticed by the smart producer Vladimir Dubovitsky. He not only offered her a new round of creative development, but also asked for her hand in marriage.

A stately man, intellectual and diplomat won the heart of a difficult star. She agreed to get married again. And after a short time she realized that she was not alone with the handsome and heartthrob Dubovitsky.

Fans of Allegrova especially remember the love scandal that broke out between the lovers. They whispered to Irina that Vladimir had an affair with one of the Mirage soloists... True or not, they say that the singer had to get into trouble with Tatyana Ovsienko. However, the husband quickly decided on love and literally crawled on his knees to return Allegrova. But she was adamant. The third marriage also broke up.

Stolen


It is known that Allegrova dedicated the song “Womanizer” to her good friend and former lover Igor Talkov - for his frequent and high-profile romances. But Allegrova performs the confession about the theft from the stage in honor of his other love.

In the mid-90s, a new dancer came to Allegrova - Igor Kapusta. A handsome, flexible, curvy man was 9 years younger than the celebrity, but he immediately realized that he liked him. For a long time he tried not to pay attention to Allegrova’s hints and sighs, and devoted his free time to his beloved girlfriend Tanya.

But Tanya noticed the singer’s special attitude. She began to throw scandals and suspect her loved one of cheating. One day, after such a hysteria, Igor came out of the entrance and saw Irina’s “nine” in the yard. Without saying a word, I got into the car and they drove off.

They arrived for an official marriage and even a wedding. Rumor has it that Allegrova “removed” her competitor with the help of money. Allegedly, only after receiving a certain amount of money did Tanya abandon Igor.

However, this marriage was also bursting at the seams. Much later, in an interview, the man admits that both were wrong: Irina behaved too temperamentally, and he simply cheated on her.

The “Empress” of the Russian stage was born in Rostov-on-Don on a cold winter morning on January 20, 1952. Her father, Alexander Allegrov (Sarkisov), was a theater director, held the title of Honored Artist of two Soviet republics: Russia and Azerbaijan, and her mother, Serafima Sosnovskaya, was a theater actress and opera singer.

(childhood and adolescence)

Irina spent her infancy in the most international of Russian cities - Rostov-on-Don. There the girl went to first grade. However, when she turned nine, their family moved to the capital of the Azerbaijan SSR - the city of Baku. In those distant times, this city was also considered international. Azerbaijanis, Armenians, Russians, Georgians, Jews, etc. lived here peacefully, side by side. And Irina’s family, despite their Armenian origin, felt very comfortable in Baku. Her parents got jobs in the musical theater: her father was a director, and her mother was a singer. Their hospitable home was often visited by such Soviet stars as Muslim Magomayev, Galina Vishnevskaya and her husband Mstislav Rostropovich, who also lived in Baku in those years. Allegrova’s biography, in a word, began in a creative environment, and the fact that Irina later became seriously interested in music was more a pattern than a surprise.

From early childhood, the girl studied at a music school, took piano classes, went to classes at a ballet school, and also attended a drawing club. As a schoolgirl, she took part in a jazz festival and took second place. In 1969, young Irina, after graduating from school, decides to enter the conservatory, but due to illness she misses the exams. She gets a job in a song theater and, as part of it, goes on a tour of some cities of the USSR. A year later, she receives an invitation from Konstantin Orbelyan to sing as a soloist in the legendary Armenian jazz ensemble and goes to Yerevan. So Irina - Armenian by origin - finally finds herself in her historical homeland, but not as Irina Sarkisova, but as Allegrova. Her biography, however, does not briefly connect her with this city. Almost at the same time, she married basketball player Georgy Tairov. Later she admits that she took this step because of unrequited love for another guy. Due to pregnancy, she has to leave the stage for a while. At the age of 19 she gives birth to her daughter Lala. But Irina soon divorces her father.

Irina Allegrova: biography. The difficult path to success

In 1974, leaving her daughter in the care of her mother, Irina goes to conquer Moscow. Here she gets a job in the famous pop ensemble under the direction of her compatriot Levon Mehrabov. However, the ensemble soon breaks up. Irina becomes a soloist of the vocal and instrumental ensemble "Young Voices", whose artistic director is Vladimir Blekher. In the same capacity, she becomes a laureate of the All-Union vocal competition "Sochi-78". Soon Vladimir Blekher announces his engagement and upcoming wedding. His bride, naturally, is Irina Allegrova. The singer’s biography contains information that this union, like the previous one, does not last long. Irina files for divorce.

After this, she begins to have a creative crisis. She is even thinking about leaving the stage forever. However, Irina manages to cope with the blues, she has a fighting character, because she is the future “empress” of Allegrova! Her biography is replenished by her acquaintance with the then unknown pianist Igor Krutoy. Then Irina performs with Igor Talkov and Lyudmila Senchina at the Margarita Terekhova Music Theater, and also works part-time in restaurants. Chance introduces her to her third husband, producer Vladimir Dubovitsky. From this moment on, her career is on the rise: first, she worked in the group “Moscow Lights”, then in the legendary group “Electroclub”, where she performs as a soloist together with Talkov. She has hits: “Wanderer”, “Photography”, “My affectionate and gentle beast”. The name of Irina Allegrova is known throughout the Soviet country. Endless tours, new cities, millions of fans. Here it is, the long-awaited popularity!

On the throne of the Empress

In 1990, Irina broke up with Dubovitsky and set out on a solo voyage both in her work and in her personal life. The best composers - Igor Nikolaev, Igor Krutoy - write songs for her. In 1995, her solo concert “The Empress” was sold out, and Irina was recognized as the best singer of the year. She conquers the hearts of millions of listeners, tours many cities in Russia and the CIS together with her dance group. Soon a rumor spreads across Moscow that a wedding ceremony took place in some Moscow church, where the groom was the dancer Igor Kapusta, and the bride was Irina Allegrova. The biography (photos from the wedding immediately appeared in the press and online) of the singer states: she got married for the 4th time, although according to official sources she was married only three times.

In the late 90s, the tandem with Igor Krutoy brought Allegrova great popularity. In the new millennium, Irina experienced a new wave of popularity. In 2007, she was awarded the title of People's Artist of the Russian Federation. Today, the 62-year-old singer has not lost her army of fans and continues to delight them with her new songs.
