Chaliapin Prokhor and his women: biography facts, musical career

Future famous singer(despite widespread legends about his family ties with Fyodor Chaliapin) was born into the most ordinary Volgograd family: his father worked as a steelmaker at one of the local factories, and his mother was a cook there.

A poor life and the most ordinary reality, associated with the hardships of ordinary Soviet life, forced our today's hero to dream of successful career pop performer.

While still in elementary school, he began to seriously study vocals, and also participate in concerts as a soloist of a local choir.

After that there was School of Music, in which Prokhor (or rather Andrey) learned to play the button accordion, and also musical ensemble“Boundweed”, with whom the future musician performed for some time.

A few years later, our today's hero also began performing with the teenage show group "Jem", and at the same time improving his innate abilities at the Samara Academy of Arts and Culture.

At the age of fifteen, driven by a dream of fame, the future participant in the “Star Factory” moved to Moscow, where he began to study singing music school named after Ippolitov-Ivanov, however, even in this educational institution the young artist did not stay long - a couple of years later, Prokhor Chaliapin entered the Russian Academy music named after the Gnessins, where he subsequently studied for several years.

At the age of eighteen, with the support of some familiar musicians, Andrei Zakharenkov recorded his debut album, called “The Magic Violin,” which turned out to be completely uninteresting to the public. Despite the fact that the first album, in fact, was sold only among the singer’s friends and relatives, Prokhor Chaliapin did not give up and very soon began to appear as a participant in various music competitions and festivals.

In 2006, the singer became the winner of the Sound Track award, as well as the bronze medalist of the Star Chance competition, which was held in New York and organized by Edita Piekha.

Real popularity came to the singer only after successfully passing the casting of the Star Factory-6 project, with which the most significant successes of the Volgograd performer are associated.
The thing is that, within the framework of the project, Andrei Zakharenkov has repeatedly stated that he is the great-grandson of the legendary opera singer Fyodor Chaliapin, but this fact was refuted by many journalists, as well as my own daughter famous performer- Maria Fedorovna.

Despite the revealed hoax, Prokhor Chaliapin became very popular and very soon began to work closely with producer Viktor Drobysh. Together they created variety adaptations of Russian folk songs, which later became the basis of the young performer’s repertoire.

Currently, a graduate of “Star Factory-6” is one of the most popular “manufacturers” of all time, and also leads in the number of recorded songs.

Chaliapin Prokhor and his women: about personal matters

Despite the fact that the artist works a lot and often tours the CIS countries, the main attention of the public, as a rule, is drawn not to his new performances and albums, but to his scandalous novels.

Prokhor's first love was Vlad's girlfriend, with whom he was together in his hometown Volgograd, but Prokhor went to the capital alone, where he became involved in a whirlpool of new acquaintances.

One of his first “friends” was Luzhkov’s adviser, member of the Union of Journalists and poetess Alla Penyaeva.

She gifted Prokhor not only with her care, but also with quite tangible manifestations of her affection - she bought him a car as a gift and became a reliable assistant in his first steps in bohemian life.

And today they see each other periodically, maintaining good friendly relations. In Alla’s office you can see many framed photographs of Prokhor, from which she wipes off the dust every day, remembering those short days of real happiness when they were together.

Perhaps, without wanting it, Alla opened the way for Prokhor to new acquaintances.

Alla Penyaeva helped Prokhor enter the faculty folk singing, where he met his future first wife Inna Shevchenko.

Inna performed in singing groups; recordings of her performances can still be found today. A beautiful red-haired girl captivated Prokhor and he rushed headlong into a new relationship.

The seriousness of the intentions can be indicated by the fact that Inna Shevchenko became Prokhor’s wife, having registered her marriage with him in 2006, but it is not known whether this marriage was happy, since Inna’s friend Alena says with a smile that Prokhor periodically visited her , as they called it, “pull up solfeggio.”

Starting as an innocent flirtation, their communication grew into a relationship, and then into deep feelings (according to Alena herself). She herself believes that she was the culprit in Prokhor Chaliapin’s divorce from his first wife Inna.

Prokhor was also not with Alena for too long, as he soon ended up on television show“Factory”, thanks to which he gained wide popularity, a large number of new acquaintances and the most tempting offers.

Prokhor's next high-profile romance was an affair with model and pop singer Adelina Sharipova.

The young people met during the casting of “Star Factory-6”, but began dating only after joint participation in the “Let’s Get Married” project. A whirlwind romance was discussed several times in the press. However, the artists became truly famous only after a series of their candid photographs appeared on the Internet, which supposedly accidentally ended up on the global network.

Some time later, the couple broke up, and Prokhor Chaliapin started new novel, which ended in a wedding - in mid-2013, the young singer married wealthy businesswoman Larisa Kopenkina.

It is quite remarkable that the happy bride was already 52 years old at that moment (according to other sources, 57!). Ceremony passed on a specially rented ship, and then moved to new apartment young singer, presented to him only the day before by his rich lover.

Some time later, a young (or not so young) couple appeared on the “Let Them Talk” project, where they actively proved to the assembled public that they love each other and have the right to happiness.

Periodically appearing on various talk shows, this couple gave the impression of a happy married couple. There was nothing to suggest that this could end as unexpectedly as it began.

And then, like a bolt from the blue, the news came that Prokhor was expecting a child from Anna Kalashnikova, and was divorcing Larisa Kopenkina.

The wedding with Kalashnikova took place in December 2014. There seemed to be no end to the happiness of the young people. And they were really happy, literally reveling in their love.

And then it became known that Prokhor Chaliapin found his young bride and the mother of his child with another man, which, according to him, he could not forgive and wanted to break off the relationship.

Anna called this a ridiculous mistake, the unknown man was not a lover at all, but her fitness trainer, with whom they discussed restoring muscle elasticity after the birth of a child, it later turned out that this was not Prokhor’s child.

Prokhor started his next romance with Ekaterina Kuzmich, who confirmed that they have a very warm relationship and they are really together.

Some time ago Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya, ex-wife Armen Dzhigarkhanyan, appeared on the top lines of online news due to scandalous divorce with him.

Less than a year had passed before she reminded herself again. Journalists “ambushed” Vitalina leaving the door of one of the Moscow registry offices hand in hand with Prokhor Chaliapin, a participant in one of the seasons of the show “Star Factory”.

They told reporters who were there “quite by accident” that they would not comment on anything, but the media began writing about the alleged marriage of Chaliapin and Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya.

Prokhor Chaliapin and Vitalina Tsymbalyuk, as it turned out later, went to the registry office to get rid of the stamp in her passport - the divorce from Armen Dzhigarkhanyan was finally completed.

In the first week of September, a celebration took place in one of the capital's restaurants - Eva Bristol's birthday.
Colleagues, friends and relatives of Eva came to congratulate the artist on her birthday and premiere: Margarita Pozoyan, Natalya Vlasova, Polina Griffis, Anton Zatsepin and many other celebrities.
