In addition to participating in theatrical productions, Oleg worked part-time at one of the radio stations, where he voiced commercials. The initial period of Yakovlev’s life in the capital could not be called rosy and carefree. At one time, the artist even had to sweep the streets.

The arrival of Oleg Yakovlev in the group was preceded by filming in a video that accompanied the song “Doll”. Direct participants also appeared in the frame musical group.

It so happened that at the very beginning of 1998 the group was left without its lead singer Igor Sorin. The guys held out with an incomplete team until March, after which they strengthened it with Oleg Yakovlev. Fifteen years later, Oleg Zhamsarayevich parted with the group because he intended to perform on his own.

Despite the fact that Oleg Yakovlev made a fairly successful career as a performer, his theater mentor did not forget about his pupil and declared his readiness to accept him back into the troupe at any time.

Hobbies

Oleg Yakovlev was involved in athletics. So seriously that he became the owner of the title of Master of Sports. He also loved to play billiards.

Departure

Premature death famous artist shocked his fans. Oleg Yakovlev died on June 29, 2017. The reasons given were varied - from liver cirrhosis and lung problems to AIDS. According to the singer’s last beloved woman, with whom he lived in a civil marriage, death occurred from cardiac arrest.

Alexandra Kutsevol asked the public not to speculate on this tragic theme, and warned journalists against the temptation to place false information on the pages of their publications. Over time, she will write a book about the man.

Oleg Yakovlev left very early, he was only 47 years old. The news of his death on June 29 came as a shock to all his loved ones, friends and fans. Before latest artist performed, worked. In his last interview for the site, he dreamed of coming to his small homeland, Buryatia. However, this was not destined to come true. What caused the tragedy? The singer was diagnosed with pulmonary edema, which occurred due to cirrhosis of the liver. Yakovlev’s friends said in an interview with kp.ru that alcohol was to blame.

"Cursed place"

Oleg Yakovlev came to conquer Moscow from Irkutsk. Graduated from GITIS, worked at the Armen Dzhigarkhanyan Theater. National fame covered him in 1998, when he joined the group “Ivanushki International”.

Now they are talking about mysticism - they say that Oleg was taken to the “cursed place” instead of soloist Igor Sorin, who died early and tragically. Some warned then: the one who comes instead of Igor will not be happy,” says the lead singer of the Na-Na group, Mikhail Igonin. - Oleg himself treated prejudices with irony; he was a believer and did not pay attention to mysticism. And what kind of curse could there be?

Oleg left “Ivanushki” for free swimming in 2012 to sing what was interesting to him, to perform solo, recalls singer Nikita. - But from conversations with him it became clear to me that promoting creativity in our show market is very difficult. And he had a hard time with it. Oleg had very sad eyes, even if he was joking and having fun. His last album very interesting! But he did not find the proper response. Oleg was worried that after his great fame he found himself out of work. His songs were not played on the radio. And hence psychosis and breakdowns. He was very vulnerable.

His main problem was alcohol. As often as I saw Oleg, he was always drunk, it started when he was in the group “Ivanushki,” said “KP” former director t.A.T.u group Leonid Dzyunik. - At events, tours - say, flying on an airplane - he always drank. Everyone is sleeping on board, tired, and he is either champagne or cognac. Oleg was lucky, he was accepted into popular group. And then the alcohol started. And he was asked from the group precisely on this occasion. Oleg was a rather reserved person and kept to himself. The “green serpent” is his problem. And the fact that after “Ivanushki” he did not receive the popularity he had hoped for only made it worse bad habit. He had a diseased liver, cirrhosis, and he was absolutely forbidden to drink. But he couldn't overcome alcohol addiction. Although I tried. This is the reason for his early death.

“He had yellow whites of his eyes.”

I called Oleg’s common-law wife Alexandra Kutsevol, who was also his director.

Oleg was sick, but worked for concerts,” Sasha said about last days singer - He tried to behave as he was used to in “Ivanushki”: a temperature is not a temperature, it doesn’t matter what happened in life, but you have to go on stage. He performed in any condition. And he did this until the last day.

- Did he know he was unwell?

I knew, but I thought it was not serious. I was sick, coughing, and thought it was a cold. He self-medicated - took cough drops. But it turned out that he had double pneumonia. Launched. He was connected to a ventilator, but it didn’t help.

-Did he go to the doctors?

No. I didn’t want to - character! I contacted him when things got really bad. And then they barely persuaded him. He began to choke and could not breathe. And he could barely walk. They called an ambulance.

- Which relatives does he still have?

No one is alive.

- Did he leave a will?

Don't know. It's not time for that now. Of course he didn't intend to die!

On the Russian Musicbox channel, ex-soloist of “Ivanushki International” Oleg Yakovlev hosted the program together with his common-law wife Sasha (Alexandra was a former professional TV presenter, worked on the Muz-TV channel).

I was Oleg's last guest in this program. Really the last one. It’s even creepy,” singer Katya Lel told KP. - What did Oleg look like? Not very... I noticed that the whites of his eyes were very yellow, it was noticeable. And he behaved somehow strangely, not entirely naturally. Not like a healthy person.

When I found out that he was admitted to the hospital, for some reason I immediately had a bad feeling,” says singer Nikita. - But I drove him away and sent a text message to his wife Sasha: “Is everything okay with Olezhka?” Oleg was lucky that he met such a beautiful girl. It's a pity they didn't have time with the kids. I asked Sasha: when will you give birth? She answered: “Soon, soon, while we have creative projects!” It was clear that they loved each other.

Epitaph

“Believe me, I’m very sorry too,
That it was all over so soon.

And I love your quiet city.

Already past concerts.”
From the song “Believe me, I’m also very sorry” by the group “Ivanushki International”

Biography

By Oleg Yakovlev’s own admission, he became a member of the Ivanushki International group almost by accident. And at first, not all fans of the most popular musical group of the 1990s received the new member favorably. After all Oleg Yakovlev took the place of Igor Sorin, who tragically passed away just a few months later.

However, for long years successful work in the group, Oleg Yakovlev could not help but win the hearts of the audience with his positive image, obvious optimism and bright, warm smile. And when Oleg Yakovlev left Ivanushki for the sake of solo career, this was a big disappointment for many fans.

As a young man, Yakovlev received the specialty “puppet theater actor”, after which he went to the capital, entered the Moscow GITIS and got into the workshop of Armen Dzhigarkhanyan. Oleg called the great artist his second father and teacher. But, having worked in his theater for some time, I received a non-winning, in my opinion young actor, role. And then I saw an advertisement on TV that a certain group was looking for a new lead singer.

Oleg Yakovlev and the group “Ivanushki International” in 1998


According to Oleg, he did not hope for anything and even forgot about the old recording sent to the studio. However, this particular entry out of hundreds and hundreds of others interested the group's producer Igor Matvienko. And after a month " probationary period“Oleg Yakovlev became a full member of one of the most successful Russian pop groups at that time.

With Oleg Yakovlev, “Ivanushki” recorded their loudest hits: « Poplar fluff", "Bullfinches", "Revi", "Golden Clouds", "Beznadega.ru". Both Oleg's image and character provided a good contrast with the other two members of the group, Kirill Andreev and Andrei Grigoriev-Apollonov. And after fifteen years collaboration “Ivanushki” and Oleg Yakovlev parted on friendly terms, periodically continuing to work together.

Regarding his solo career, Oleg Yakovlev was full of ideas, strength and creative plans for the future. His endeavors were strongly supported by his common-law wife, Alexandra Kutsevol, with whom the singer lived for many years and planned to be legally married in the future. No one could have imagined that bilateral pneumonia in a matter of months would lead first to hospitalization and then to the death of this smiling, energetic and seemingly eternally young artist. Oleg Yakovlev died at the age of 47 from cardiac arrest. The artist’s relatives refused a traditional funeral, preferring cremation.

Cause of death of Oleg Yakovlev

The sudden death of such a young and seemingly healthy artist could not but give rise to a wide variety of versions regarding the true background of the circumstances of his death. Thus, Yakovlev’s friend and colleague in the group “Ivanushki” Kirill Andreev suggested that the fact that he smoked a lot and for a long time played a role in the sharp deterioration in Oleg’s health. Some rumors cited the artist’s overall unhealthy lifestyle as the cause of death. However, the singer’s common-law wife, Alexandra Kutsevol, said that the culprit was self-medication and Yakovlev’s categorical refusal to seek medical help until it came to emergency hospitalization.

Testaments

“Not many popular songs allow you to find sincere, kind energy, a good message... Maybe this is why the girls, our fans, need us so much.”

“My happiness is the mutual understanding of two close people, this is the ability to change, this is family, children, love, this is what I love.”

“...I consider it a rule to always smile!”

Condolences

“It’s a pity that it’s so early. I prayed for him...I grieve. Olezhka, my dear, the Kingdom of Heaven to You."
Kirill Andreev, member of the group “Ivanushki International”

“He worked actively, very nice, very friendly, very creative person... The news shocks me. As always, the news is shocking when people die untimely. Of course, these are tears, drama, and tragedy for the whole family and fans, everyone who loved and knew this man. My condolences".
Dmitry Malikov, National artist Russia

“The feeling that he is infinitely young, infinitely bright, he still has time to live and live... All this is so unexpected, so hasty and so early...”
Mitya Fomin, singer, ex-member of the Hi-Fi group

“It’s sad when young people pass away, especially a person you know. This is sad news, it cannot but cause indignation, so I want to express my condolences to my family, friends, and team. And once again I would like to remind you that you need to take care of yourself from your youth, and not succumb to such moments that can unsettle you.”
Joseph Prigozhin, producer

The most modest in Ivanushka’s group, even intelligent. Similar to Kirill's younger brother, but softer. Similar to Andrey, but less frivolous. His fans did not immediately accept him: after the death of Igor Sorin, it was extremely difficult. Oleg knew all this very well. However, art requires sacrifice. We must be able to endure and wait. After all, he is not the first.

vilo, motto, saying

I don’t say anything special, but I consider it a rule to always smile!

My happiness is the mutual understanding of two close people, this is the ability to change, this is family, children, love, this is my favorite thing. I dream that my family and friends will be happy, and... all the homeless cats and dogs will live in their own houses.

Born on November 18 in a small Mongolian town - his parents were on a business trip, so the future “Ivanushka” spent the first year of his life among the hills of Mongolia. He graduated from school in Irkutsk. When, at the age of six, Oleg independently, without the help of his parents, entered music school, he almost “ruined” his mother, a teacher of Russian language and literature, by purchasing a piano. He was involved in athletics and sang in the pioneer choir something like “either a birch or a mountain ash...”. He received a diploma as an actor and until recently played in the theater of Armen Dzhigarkhanyan. He became “Ivanushka” only during the recording of his second album, first appearing in the famous video “Doll”...

My previous occupation is acting. As a child, I dreamed of being a musician - a singer or a pianist, I have

I had good makings for this... Like all actors who are looking for a way to make money, I worked on radio, on TV - you’ll act there, you’ll voice something there. I thought I’d give the tape away, maybe there’ll be some work in the studio. When they called me after the audition, I was surprised. It was a complete surprise for me that they took me. Apparently, childhood dreams do come true!

It is very important for me when, while performing on stage, you see the normal eyes of friends, friends who will help and cover you, because it is impossible otherwise. The three of us, and every day, every tour, we go together, chat, drink mineral water from the same bottle.

Sometimes I surprise myself. After all, “Ivanushki” is shown very little on television, but they are very loved. A lot has been done, a lot has been written good songs. Albums "Of course he", "Your letters" and new album“I’ll be screaming about this all night” - there are so many hits in them... I think we sing good ones good songs- not many popular songs can contain sincere, kind energy, a good message... or humor. Maybe thanks to this, the girls - our fans - need us so much

Earlier, he spoke about Yakovlev’s health former colleague by the group "Ivanushki International" Kirill Andreev. "We filmed together new clip and were recording a song, and I didn’t know that he had any problems.

Just a month and a half ago he was full of strength,” the performer noted.

Journalists learned about the death of Oleg Yakovlev thanks to a message from Alexandra Kutsevol, which she left a sad message on her official page V social network Instagram. “Today at 7:05, the main Man of my life, my Angel, my Happiness, passed away...
