Comedy battle uncle Vitya Ilya Sobolev. “Uncle Vitya sat on the journalist’s face” - the first interview with the scandalous comedian

Of course, there is a certain intrigue. But still, the majority of those interested are sure that this is Ilya Viktorovich Sobolev. True, this secret is not finally revealed on the channel, in order to stir up interest further, apparently.

There were also versions that these were Artem Pushkin, Maxim Korchagin and Mishlanov.

If Uncle Vitya were a real person, but I doubt that his behavior and speech would change during the course of his speeches. Still, I’m inclined to think that this is Ilya Sobolev.

Moreover, although the make-up artists do an excellent job, they don’t always do it. Why do some pictures with Uncle Vova give off an old look in different areas of the skin, while others don’t?

It seems that the make-up artists either did not have time to do the make-up on time, or that different make-up artists worked on the image. Some did it in more detail, while others were less focused on it. It turns out that there is some kind of imbalance in the image. A person cannot rejuvenate and grow old from one show to another.

Uncle Vitya from Moscow with an unconventional sense of humor was able to win over his audience and take a respectable second place in the tenth season of Laughter without Rules. This condition allows him to enter the Slaughter League.

The main mystery of the project is the assertion that a completely different character is hiding behind the sluggish image. One of the opinions was that Uncle Vitya is the made-up Ilya Sobolev from the duet Beautiful, but there is no confirmation yet.

Wikipedia says that this is Roman Vitalievich Klyachkin! https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klyachkin,_Roman_Vitalevich

The official website of this comedian hides any data that could indicate the identity of this person.

But many sites indicate the year of birth of Uncle Vitya - 1983. This means that he is 32 years old today.

Date of birth of Ilya Sobolev is February 25, 1983. Place of birth - Krasnoyarsk, which also suits the famous comedian.

Maybe this is a coincidence, but it seems to me that behind the makeup of Uncle Vitis it is Ilya Sobolev.

Yes, this is really Ilya Viktorovich Sobolev, it’s stupid to deny it. Even now, if you watch episode 124 when Uncle Vitya says something, the intonation is like Sobolev’s, only the timbre of his voice has changed.

For some reason, it still seems to me that it is Ilyusha Sobolev who is hiding under the guise of Uncle Vitya, there are a lot of similarities in these characters, especially since Uncle Vitya once spoke completely like Sobolev. As for age, the skill of modern make-up artists is very great, which is proven by shows like One on One. Moreover, it is not age-related changes on the face or hands that are alarming, but their inconsistency; in some photographs they are clearly visible, in others the face appears completely young. Apparently the makeup is not always applied equally diligently. But even if Uncle Vitya is not Sobolev, I won’t be too upset, there will simply be one more interesting comedian.

One can definitely say about Uncle Vitya that he is Uncle Vitya, a comedian, showman and resident of the Comedy Club. And the most mysterious resident. There is a lot of controversy about his persona, is this a real character or a made-up Ilya Sobolev



I am also inclined towards the version with Sobolev and good makeup.

I think this is done to maintain intrigue. That is why they hide the person’s real name.

The public is still inclined to believe that this is Ilya Sobolev. My opinion is also that it is him...

Uncle Vitya is another intrigue of the TNT channel. While the real name of this character is not known to the general public. But with a high probability we can assume that the role of Uncle Vitya is played by Ilya Sobolev in high-quality makeup.

Uncle Vitya is a participant in Comedy Battle, one of the most mysterious participants in the project. Firstly, his jokes are too dirty (which the audience likes, but the judges don’t like). Further - in fact, he is not an uncle, but a young guy. Many assume that his name is Ilya Sobolev. Date of Birth, facial structure - in general, everything agrees that Uncle Vitya is Sobolev (humorist).

The fact that no one knows who is hiding behind the image of Uncle Vitya makes the project more attractive.

If you take a closer look at the photo of this man, namely at his hands, then you can say with confidence that this man is much older than Ilya Sobolev. And the eyes are different.

Ilya Sobolev is a popular Russian comedian, a resident of the Comedy Club, has his own show “Uncle Vitya”, where he performs in the image of a mischievous grandfather, and has recently become a Youtube blogger.

Childhood and youth

Ilya Sobolev, a famous Russian comedian, was born in the Siberian city of Krasnoyarsk, February 25, 1983. Already in his school years, he was attracted by the theater stage. And he did not miss a single opportunity, trying to participate in almost all school amateur performance shows. He was best at short humorous skits in the school KVN team.

The future artist began to seriously engage in creativity in 2003, when his team “First Coast” received first place in the KVN Premier League. 18 teams participated in the season, but in the end, with the highest score, “Vyshy Bereg” shared the gold with the Saransk team “Region-13”.

The next year, the young man enters the Major League, where comedians from the First Coast team were able to reach the 1/4 finals. In the same year, the Siberian team achieved gold medals at the Voting KiViN 2004 festival. In 2005, the artist, as part of a humorous creative association, received third place in the Russian Premier League, leaving behind only the Tomsk team from Maximum and the Friends team from Perm.

Sobolev Ilya on television

Thanks to his charisma, the young artist receives an invitation to participate in television comedy programs. Thus, TV viewers remembered the comedian in such projects as “ Slaughter League«, « Laughter without rules" And " comedy club". Soon the young man receives the status of permanent resident of a television program Comedy Club.

In the first season of the television project " Laughter without rules“Ilya, together with Roman Klyachkin, was able to surprise the judges and achieved second place. And in the ninth season, in which the finalists of previous years participated, he reached the gold prize.

Ilya Sobolev is also associated with the television character “ Uncle Vitya", which appeared for the first time in the ninth season of the television show " Laughter without rules". Despite the fact that the management of the TNT channel denied this fact, television viewers are sure that the young KVN player had a lot of fun on the television set. However, no one has seen Uncle Vitya without makeup and who actually plays the host of the “Money or Shame” program.

In the middle of winter 2010, Ilya Sobolev left the television project “ Slaughter League" and goes to work on a TV show called " Comedy Battle«.

But the young artist “feeds” not only on humor. In 2009, together with the famous St. Petersburg musician Andrian, he recorded two tracks called “Gansta” and “Don’t Think.” Together with the creative association " Ivanov, Smirnov, Sobolev"and the group "3NT" Ilya participates in the filming of a video clip for the song "Nuances".

Sobolev Ilya and his personal life

According to the artist, he is truly happy, as he is married to the best woman in the world, Natalya Pakhomova. The comedian's wife works in real estate and law. The couple has two daughters, Sofia and Eva. After giving birth, the girl developed her own program about women’s nutrition and recovery after childbirth, presenting it on her page in Instagram.

Sobolev Ilya now

At this point in time, the artist has permanent resident status of the project Comedy Club. He was repeatedly invited as a presenter to the MuzTV television channel.

In the spring of 2017, together with the creative association " Ivanov, Smirnov, Sobolev"visited the People's Republic of China, where the annual Comedy Club festival was held.

At the beginning of the summer of the same year, Moscow police accidentally stopped the artist. When checking the documents, it turned out that Ilya was using a fake driver’s license. Later, the comedian justified himself, saying that he did not know that he had been deprived of his driver’s license by a court decision for 3 years.

Ilya Sobolev YouTube

At the beginning of autumn 2017, Pavel decides to continue filming vlogs for his own YouTube channel. In short videos, he raises many topical issues, in particular, he talks about old age, fears, show business stars, and the LGBT community. In mid-autumn, the comedian, together with other participants in the Comedy Club show, goes on a tour of the US, Canada and Mexico.

At the beginning of 2018, the release of another humorous show, “Prozharka”, took place. As a participant, Ilya Sobolev will have to make fun of the invited guest. In the first episode I experienced a barrage of sharp jokes.

Uncle Vitya is a shocking character in humorous shows that air on the TNT channel. Viewers are sure that under his mask there is a young comedian, whose name is still kept secret. The funny old man became the star of the show “Comedy Battle”, “Laughter without Rules”, and then created his own project.

Character history

When Uncle Vitya first appeared on the stage of Slaughter League, people wondered who played him. Some had no doubt that this was a real person. After all, the actor transforming into him cleverly hid under professional makeup and did not give himself away.

Uncle Vitya always has the same image. Old worn trousers, plaid shirts worn over a turtleneck, and a vest or jacket. And the movement around the stage, characteristic of an elderly person, casts even greater doubts. The man came up with the name Uncle Vitya, or rather his pseudonym, himself, which further emphasizes the created image.

A comedian is good at the conversational genre, when he has to quickly come up with a funny answer to the questions of the jury members and improvise. However, the man was not seen in other directions. It is not known for certain who is hiding behind the mask of a grumpy old man. The organizers of the shows in which he participates assure that the man communicates with them in the same way as on stage.

Although Uncle Vitya tries to keep the intrigue to the last and does not reveal his true face, attentive viewers have drawn conclusions for themselves. The main version is that he is hiding under the mask of a rollicking pensioner. This is a comedian on the TNT channel and a former member of the KVN team, who has a reputation as a cheerful guy who performs in miniatures in stand-up style.

Viewers of humorous programs made such conclusions after carefully comparing photos of Sobolev and Uncle Vitya. Despite the applied makeup, users found similarities in the facial features of these two people. Moreover, as “experts” assure, the image of the old man is not accidental. It is partially copied from the film “Man on the Moon”, Sobolev’s favorite film.

Those who carefully watched “Laughter Without Rules” also made their own conclusions. Uncle Vitya’s voice, rude and harsh, broke during the broadcast of the program, and the phrase “He is no longer a defender” was uttered in Sobolev’s voice.

The main distinguishing feature of this character is his jokes. More precisely, in the translation of any questions addressed to him on the topic of the love affairs of an elderly man. The boorish, unbridled Don Juan seems repulsive and outrageous to the audience. However, his wit allows him to quickly come up with a suitable answer and make the whole room laugh.

No matter how much journalists and simply fans of TNT’s humorous projects tried to get to the bottom of the truth, the attempts were in vain. Sobolev and the channel’s management claim that these are two different people, Ilya has no relation to Uncle Vita.

In May 2018, in an interview for the Talking Heads Youtube channel, Sobolev personally answered an exciting question, assuring the host that Uncle Vitya was not him. Therefore, everyone is left to continue to wonder whether this character is real, or whether he is skillfully played by a professional actor.

Humor and TV shows

For the first time, viewers saw Uncle Vitya on the stage of the humorous show “Laughter without Rules” in 2007. He turned his speech into a dialogue with the jury. The jokes were directed at the girls who sat in the judge's chairs. The man “flirted” with, and. Nobody took him seriously, although the mysterious character's approach to humor and charisma captivated thousands of viewers. So other television programs began to appear in his biography.

In the show “Killer League”, the purpose of which was to select comedians to advance to the next stages and fight for the place of the best, Uncle Vitya was seen again. The man performed on par with other participants and captivated everyone with his jokes, from young people to the elderly.

Uncle Vitya appeared more than once in Comedy Battle. More precisely, he became a full-fledged participant in the project, along with other performers in three seasons. While on stage, the man improvises; he does not prepare for his appearances, but tries to get the jury to talk. Moreover, he always has the same image - a grumpy old man who doesn’t love anyone.

During the entire time Uncle Vitya participated in this project, he even managed to reach the finals. In the 7th season of the project, which took place under the slogan “Experience vs. Youth,” the man took 4th place and received the right to open his own project on the TNT channel.

He also competed in Season 8, again finishing in 4th place, but this time the cash prize was only for the sole finalist. However, he was not upset, because he began promoting his own program called “Money or Shame.”

Uncle Vitya's new show started in the summer of 2017. He invites famous guests to the studio and does not change the created image when communicating with them. The stars of Russian show business experience sophisticated “set-ups”, sharp facts and scandalous details of their lives from Uncle Vitya.

The audience appreciated the show of the outrageous old man, so filming did not stop after the release of the first filmed episodes. In January 2018, the 2nd season of the show was released, and in the summer of the same year, viewers saw the 3rd. The man continues to look for new “victims” for his show, shoots new episodes and remains afloat for now.

Uncle Vitya now

On November 5, 2018, the 4th season of Uncle Vitya’s show “Money or Shame” started, where the participants, represented by eminent guests, will have to answer the host’s tricky questions. For completing all stages of the program, the guest star receives a cash prize.

Other actors, comedians and singers have already come to visit Uncle Vita in previous episodes. The largest sum of money was earned by a businesswoman and former participant in the television project “Dom-2”.

• The fact that Uncle Vitya and Sobolev are one person has not yet been proven. Attentive viewers noticed an important detail in one of the episodes of “Slaughter League”. After the next performance, when the comedian went down the steps from the stage, Ilya Sobolev, or a guy similar to him, appeared in the same frame for 10 seconds. This video is freely available on the Internet.

• The interviews that Uncle Vitya gives for online publications are conducted in the same style as communication on stage during performances. The comedian turns questions from journalists into jokes and does not answer any questions seriously.
• In the program “Money or Shame,” where the invited guest was an actor, Uncle Vitya paid most attention to the latter. Moreover, the jokes were daring and arrogant. Although they made the audience laugh, Ruslan did not like such attention. He even went up on stage to “deal” with the man, but everything ended well.

Is he a real character or is there a well-known comedian hiding behind pounds of makeup?

Conquering the public

When Uncle Vitya first visited the humorous program “Laughter without Rules” - and it was there that he made his debut - no one took him seriously. Baggy clothes did not distinguish the artist from the crowd of those who wanted to conquer the audience. But a special approach to humor and unusual jokes helped everyone’s favorite get ahead, beating his rivals with the help of his indescribable charisma and mystery. But no one could answer the question of who Uncle Vitya is. Intrigue arose. And everyone around was wondering who Uncle Vitya really is, “Laughter Without Rules,” with whose participation people will remember for a long time, easily reached the finals.

Popularity

Thanks to the created unsurpassed image, after conquering the “Slaughter League”, the comedian was bombarded with offers of cooperation. This became the main springboard in the life of a comedian. The strangest thing is that despite his popularity, the artist has been skillfully hiding for several years, leaving viewers bewildered. Not every fan can answer the question of who Uncle Vitya is and how he manages to maintain intrigue for so long.

Next step

The artist did not stop there; he set off to conquer another famous project of the TNT channel. “The Killer League” was already the second step in the career of the mysterious comedian. This time the comedian chose the tactic of insults and behaved defiantly. But the audience really liked his unconventional approach to humor, and everyone understood perfectly well that the show was reaching a new level with the help of a mysterious character. But no one knew who Uncle Vitya really was ("Lethal League"). Who could it be?

The character's appearance resembles a grumpy old man who is dissatisfied with everything and decides to go on an adventure. No one could understand who Uncle Vitya was. Is this the famous actor in makeup? Or is this a really funny grandfather who decided to shake up the old days? Or is this a project of the TNT channel itself, created to dilute the general mass of similar speakers with an extraordinary person? To this day, one can come up with a whole string of guesses. Fans of the project are trying to find similarities between Uncle Vitya and other comedians. But there is no evidence yet. And Uncle Vitya is in no hurry to reveal his true face.

Ilya Sobolev - Uncle Vitya?

The intrigued public knew no rest. Therefore, on the Internet, fans began to share guesses. So, suspicions fell on comedian Ilya Sobolev, who is very reminiscent of Uncle Vitya. Or vice versa, Uncle Vitya is very reminiscent of Ilya Sobolev in old age. Fans began comparing photos, and some even saw a striking resemblance to this Comedy Club resident. Others are sure that this is a character with a completely different story and that he has nothing to do with popular comedians. But it's worth noting that most people find the character very interesting and don't really care who's behind the mask.

One of the main advantages of a comedian is improvisation. He does not prepare speeches, but acts according to the situation. This shows his talent and high professionalism.
