From the public, such an award caused bewilderment and a flurry of criticism on social networks. Among those who have not found an answer to the question of what the award is for is the famous trainer Edgard Zapashny, who spoke on this topic in his Instagram:

“When you and your colleagues work like horses for years and to some extent in order to someday stand in front of the President and, proud of yourself and your work done, receive a worthy reward, then at this time such “singers” suddenly receive the Order, and even the second degree. I admit that I don’t want to work less after this, but I don’t want your name to ever be on par with such a “singer”!<…>Friends, there are things called overkill, and this is exactly the case!”

“He said it correctly!”, “I agree with Zapashny and all those who agree with him!” - users of social networks support the famous trainer and are perplexed “for what merit Nelson received the award.”

Among those who respect the singer’s work, there were also those who could not understand “what the medal was for.”

Some users took the news about Irina Nelson’s award as a joke and were upset when they learned the opposite, noting that such an award reduces the status of the medal itself.

Others regarded the whole story as a PR stunt.

There are also those among the commentators who considered such a negative reaction of the majority to be ordinary envy, and Zapashny was advised to look at his work activity.

Another contemporary Russian pop star we want to talk about is Irina Nelson. The singer’s biography is rich in creative events and sharp turns that fans will be interested to know about.

How old is Irina Nelson?

Tereshina Irina Anatolevna(before marriage) was born on April 19, 1972 in the small town of Barabinsk near Novosibirsk. Since childhood, the girl was fond of music and sang excellently, which was what predetermined her fate; already at the music school she became a soloist of a jazz project. Then there was a competition in Yalta, where the young artist caught the eye of the musician V. Tyurin and he invited her to become a member of the Electroversion group.

Today she is a world-famous performer, winner of many awards and recognitions:

  • FHM magazine includes the star in the top 100 most beautiful women in the Universe;
  • Video clips of her solo performances receive millions of views on the Internet;
  • This is the first singer in the world to enter the American Billboard chart within six months after the release of one of the songs.

And this is not all of her achievements. At 45 years old, she has achieved incredible popularity. The singer combines work in a group and has become famous as a solo performer, is a producer, author of many songs, wife and mother, and even grandmother.

Career and popularity

Irina's creative path is an endless search. After “Electroversion,” the girl tries herself as a solo singer and performs under the pseudonym Diana in honor of her favorite performer Diana Ross. But after releasing six albums and touring, she leaves Diana and begins work on a group project.

Nelson and Tyurin are launching the group Reflex, and it is with her that the young performer will gain real popularity:

  1. One of the compositions “Go Crazy” occupies a leading position in the main music tops of Russia in 2001, as well as on radio Europe Plus;
  2. In 2002, the group received the popular Golden Gramophone award (there will be five in total);
  3. In 2003, the fifth album “Non-Stop” was released, which broke all records. For several years, songs from it have not left the airwaves of all radio stations, and clips shot on compositions from this record are constantly played on the screen;
  4. Tyurin organizes the company Reflexmusic, which begins cooperation with famous London music labels. Reflex is recording a joint project with German composer DJ BoBo.

In 2007, the soloist announced her decision to leave the project for further creative search; she was going to make a solo career, but in 2012 she returned and combined positions.

Irina’s personal life: husband and children

Ira received the surname Nelson from her first husband, Swedish citizen Adreas Nelson. The marriage did not last long, and the couple soon divorced. Irina has a son, Anton, from this union. Now he is an adult young man who followed in his mother’s footsteps and devoted himself to music. Anton graduated from one of the Moscow universities with a degree in show business management, but he does not only manage and organize work. The young man is talented and can play many musical instruments.

Ira married her longtime colleague for the second time Vyacheslav Tyurin . Their long-term collaboration over time grew into more than just work. The couple did not sign for a long time, living in a civil marriage, but in 2000 they registered their relationship without unnecessary celebrations. Now this is a happy family; for many years husband and wife have lived practically without arguing. Only a few controversial issues arise at a professional level, but they can be resolved quickly, according to the star herself.

While living abroad, the singer discovered Eastern culture. Today, Nelson is a yoga teacher, qualified by her degree from Kundalini University.

The singer also gave up meat forever and eats only plant foods in the form of vegetables, fruits and legumes.

Irina Nelson: Instagram

In addition to other social networks, the singer has Instagram page. Here fans can see excellent footage from concerts and other events, as well as family photos and posters about upcoming events with her participation.

But the star did not stop only on pages on social networks; interested users can visit the artist’s project “life 108”. It is dedicated to beauty and health. Here Ira, as a yoga teacher and simply a beautiful woman, shares advice with those who dream of creating harmony between soul and body.

Regular yoga practices with her participation are very popular, people are very satisfied with them, you can find out about them on this site.

The blog on life 108, which is maintained by the hostess, will be interesting to those who love the philosophy of knowing themselves and others, trying to comprehend the science of ideal relationships with people and finding inner harmony.

Irina Nelson: “Order of Merit for the Fatherland”

The star herself reacted emotionally to the award, expressing deep gratitude to the Fatherland for such high attention. The girl does not react to harsh criticism from the public, as befits a wise person.

It is indeed a serious responsibility to have such an award, and it is impossible to please everyone. Such a number of critical statements speaks of popularity, which not everyone can achieve.

In addition to ill-wishers, Nelson’s work has many fans who are sincerely happy for their idol; they believe that the artist, like no one else, is worthy of the order.

For our part, we congratulate the singer and wish her new creative achievements.

So, another star has become a little closer to the people. We told you who Irina Nelson is, whose biography interests so many. This is a person who has achieved respect and recognition not only in our country, but also abroad, thanks to his enormous creative potential, charm and ability to work.

Video: is the award deserved?

This report tells about the presentation of the medal of the Order of Merit to the Fatherland to Irina Nelson:

The ceremony of presenting state awards took place in the Kremlin. Among the recipients was the leader of the Reflex group Irina Nelson: the singer was awarded the medal of the Order of Merit for the Fatherland, II degree. According to the official wording, the singer was awarded “for high professionalism, many years of artistic activity, extensive accumulated experience and great personal contribution to the development of youth, popularization of the image of kindness and romance, active life position, promotion of the principles of non-violence and impeccable reputation.”

The laureates included a large number of people from various fields of activity - science, sports, politics, business, culture. Among them were famous theater, film and pop actors Alexander Kalyagin, Sergei Nikonenko and Mikhail Derzhavin. Irina herself admitted that she was very worried at the award ceremony:

I want to sincerely thank everyone for the unanimous opinion that I truly deserved this award! That my more than 20 years of creativity did not go unnoticed. I started as a solo singer in a pop project, then became the creator and leader of the trendy group #Reflex, and now, despite a busy touring schedule, I have started working on a new social project aimed at improving the health of our nation.

True, not everyone agrees that the singer deserved such an award. Bloggers have created a real scandal on the Internet. Lena Miro was outraged by Nelson's statement that she deserves this award:

- “I really deserved this award” - how to react to this? No one remembers, no one knows, but the medal is deserved. They called me to the Kremlin, handed me over, shook my hand and poured me champagne. I took a photo on the street, came home and posted it on social networks. She deserved it. Worthy. In addition to intense artistic activity, Irina is also involved in social projects that are aimed at improving the health of the nation. How she makes this nation healthier is completely clear to me personally - we have such health providers a dime a dozen. I don’t even know how to feel about state awards after this. Do you know?

Journalist Natalya Radulova made a selection of piquant photos of Irina Nelson. In the comments to the material, subscribers confirmed: Nelson from Reflex is remembered exactly like this - half naked.

Like the state, like the heroes.

Beautiful woman. Who is our husband?

By the way, Irina Nelson’s husband, composer and producer Vyacheslav Tyurin, reacted furiously to criticism on the networks. He promises to “find out” and “bury” everyone who criticizes his wife:

In 2006, the singer was already awarded the medal of the Order of “Professional of Russia” for her impeccable, long-term work and contribution to the culture of Russia.

Reflex

  • The Reflex group was created in 1999 by Irina Nelson’s husband, producer and musician Vyacheslav Tyurin. The team has received 17 national music awards.
  • The group, in addition to Irina Nelson herself, included Olga Kosheleva and Denis Davidovsky. “As soon as the decision was made to come up with a name for this whole action,” recalls Vyacheslav Tyurin, we began to read all the inscriptions around and one day we saw this word. “Reflection” translated from Latin means reflection, and it seemed to us that Reflex is exactly the word that accurately reflects our inner world.”

Irina Nelson, the lead singer of the Reflex group, received an important award: in the Kremlin, the artist was awarded the Order of Merit for the Fatherland. However, the presentation of the order to Irina led bloggers to bewilderment: now there are large-scale discussions on the Internet about the appropriateness of this award.

Irina herself reacted emotionally to the order, publishing a post on Instagram: “I thank everyone for such a unanimous opinion that I really deserved this award! That my more than 20 years of creativity did not go unnoticed. I started as a solo singer in a pop project, then became the creator and leader of the trendy group #Reflex and now, despite a busy touring schedule, I have started working on a new social project aimed at improving the health of our nation. And 2 days ago, standing in the Catherine Palace of the Kremlin, among venerable and respected people, I, the only girl from show business, who was awarded this medal of the Order of Merit for the Fatherland, second degree, had not yet fully realized the significance of this event and simply thanked Fate for the accomplished fact. I sincerely love my Fatherland, and I definitely believe in the Brightest Future and I wish this for all of us together!!!” (Spelling and punctuation hereinafter are the author's - editor's note).

Bloggers began to quote the decree awarding Nelson: “for high professionalism, many years of artistic activity, rich accumulated experience and great personal contribution to the development of youth, popularization of the image of kindness and romance, active life position, promotion of the principles of non-violence and impeccable reputation.”

Irina’s husband, producer Vyacheslav Tyurin, also did not stay away from the discussions, who shared a very emotional comment in which he promised to “beat off” all those who disagree, all at once. However, the comment was later deleted.

Meanwhile, Internet users are perplexed why it was Irina who received the award: “I would do the same, just like she could, give me some money!!! since she sings - EVERYONE can!!! And only a few can sing like Svetikova! And you are complete *** for clapping for such freaks!!! Thanks to you, they stay on stage and jump. Yulia Volkova still sings, I'm crazy, I need her. And my daughter herself will soon be running around with suitors,” “What can I say. In Russia we love impostors. All sorts of chichikovs. This has been the case since time immemorial. And I don't envy her. I envy and admire Utyasheva, Slutskaya, Navka... and why should I envy them? With their money, everyone will look like this,” “And they clap for her. young people don't care what to listen to. Any nonsense will be accepted. These are young people. The main thing for them is that it is new, fresh, fashionable. And quality, how can they comprehend quality??? their parents were used to standing in lines for sausage for hours and riding in trains full of sausage. I didn’t know the concept of “quality” back then. Their children don’t know either, and don’t WANT to know! That’s why we live like this!”, “Services to the Fatherland??? We remember your videos, yes, a group of singing cowards. What kind of trolling is this? I’ve never sworn, but I can’t do it here!”

Photo posted on Instagram Irina Nelson, made a lot of noise. The singer boasted that the Kremlin appreciated her 20 years of experience on the stage and presented her with an award.

“I am the only girl from show business who was awarded this medal of the Order of Merit for the Fatherland, second degree,” Irina wrote and posted the photo. It shows a happy blonde standing on Red Square after an award ceremony, with a medal pinned to her little black dress.

What started here! Commentators bombarded the girl with sarcastic phrases: “Can you be more specific, for what such great merits?”

The famous trainer couldn’t resist making an angry post Edgard Zapashny.

When you and your colleagues have been plowing like horses for years, and to some extent, in order to someday stand in front of the president and, proud of yourself and your work done, receive a worthy reward, at this time such “singers” suddenly receive an order, and even and second degree,” he was indignant. And even in his hearts he added that he himself no longer wants this award: “I don’t want your name to ever be on a par with such a “singer”!

Orthodox activists from Novosibirsk, whose fame spread throughout the country after their fight with Sergei Shnurov, Tannhäuser and Marilyn Manson, also did not stand aside.

I watched her videos, and in them there was propaganda of same-sex love, like “Tattoos”, and I was outraged Ivan Kvasnitsky, member of the Novosibirsk Coordination Council for the protection of morality, culture and traditional family values. - And since she was awarded, what happens: is it presented as an example for young people to follow, or what?

Komsomolskaya Pravda tried to figure out why the star of the 1990s was awarded.

PIANIST FROM THE OUTDOORS

Irina Nelson, according to her passport - Tyurina, was born in the town of Barabinsk, Novosibirsk region.

She lived on the very outskirts of the regional center - the infrastructure there is worse, as the locals describe.

There were two sisters in the family, Irina was the youngest. Parents sent both girls to music school.

Our family is melodious, our grandmother is from Ukraine. When she was six years old, she was resettled from the Kharkov region to Siberia. And since childhood, everyone in the house sang, everyone had a natural voice,” says Irina’s older sister, Vera Samosenko. - Our uncle could pick up any instrument and play it - such a natural gift. Ira and I both had an ear for music. I studied at the folk department, played in the folk orchestra, and she was a pianist and played classical music.

At the local music school Ira Tereshina(maiden name) was proud - she took first place in piano playing competitions.

After music school, she went to a music school, and then even wanted to study at the Novosibirsk Conservatory, but it didn’t work out due to family circumstances. In Novosibirsk, she already became interested in jazz,” Vera recalls. - I remember, no matter how I come to visit her, she’s wearing headphones. Ira is generally a hard worker and if he takes on something, he gives it his all. And then she was noticed at some competition...

All-Russian fame came to the singer in the early 1990s, when she performed under the stage name “Diana” (in honor of Diana Ross - editor's note). And in 1999, the history of the Reflex group began, where Irina became the lead vocalist.

I WENT TO LUGANSK IN MEMORY OF MY GRANDMOTHER

The singer’s sister says that at the beginning of the 2000s, in the wake of the popularity of Tatu, stars often flirted with the theme of girlish love in their videos. There was also plenty of nudity at that time.

All these accusations against Ira are some kind of nonsense! Just envy - that's how I perceive it. They picked up photographs from a hundred years ago and began to stir up the past. Well, who among us is without sin? - Vera stands up for her sister. According to her, Nelson deserved the award. And not so much with his songs, but with his performances in Donbass in 2016. The star also visited Crimea - there she shot the video “Talk to Me” in 2016.


I remember our relatives calling us: “Ira is performing in Lugansk! They show it on TV.” Our mother is shocked: from there every day they transmit combat reports about where her daughter has gone! But Ira has roots in Ukraine, and, apparently, she wanted to help, support and inspire the residents of Donbass, so she went with a concert to the hot spot. Although, of course, my sister took a risk,” Vera explains the award.

And I wasn’t even surprised when I saw her performance in Lugansk. My sister has always been like this: she’ll jump with a parachute... She’s not afraid of anything,” Nelson’s cousin describes Nelson’s character Ivan Molchanov.


“AND LEPS IS BETTER?”

In her native regional center of Barabinsk they rejoiced at Irina’s success. The local newspaper “Barabinsky Vestnik” immediately published an editorial under the headline: “The success of the Barabinsky stars.” In the photo: Nelson with a medal at the Kremlin and her little fellow countrywoman, who took a prize in a small competition.

“We, of course, know Irina, remember her and are proud of her,” says a deputy of the Barabinsky City Council Konstantin Tereshchenko. - When she received the award, of course, there was no big celebration, but everyone was discussing it.

The attacks on fellow countrywoman Tereshchenko are upsetting.

I read why they give this medal. And here it is written that it is awarded, among other things, for “success in maintaining high combat readiness of units, units and formations” and “for strengthening law and order,” says Tereshchenko. “I’m sure it was no coincidence that her name was on the list of awardees, because such awards are not given out of the blue. If you look at the award list itself, then there is also a certain Lepsveridze on the list - this is Grigory Leps. Please tell me why Leps didn’t raise any questions from anyone, but she did? Is he distinguished by some kind of highly moral behavior? On the Internet you can find videos where he is on stage in an inadequate state, which, by the way, has never been noticed with Irina. And again, he received the medal of the Order “For Merit to the Fatherland”, 1st degree Anatoly Yakovlevich Shenderov- concert director of the group “Zemlyane”. At the same time, if you go to the website of the Lugansk region, you will see news there that Russian musicians Leps, “Zemlyane” and “Reflex” performed in Lugansk. In my opinion, everything is deserved. And it’s clear why Irina received this award. Therefore, I will defend Irina in this regard. Yes, our stage is built on demonstrating various nudity, but this is due to the demands of the public. And I really believe that despite all this, you can remain a hero!
