Tall Russian singers. The youngest, most talented, beloved and scandalous singers of Russia

Nobody in the world knows Soviet and Russian pop musicians. Especially in the West. However, musicians from Russia in different time entered the Western charts.

All attempts to promote and impose our popular music on the Western public have failed. Russian pop music is very secondary and backward - both technologically and stylistically.

But it has already become good tradition telling the Russian public lies about the successes of certain performers in the West. It's getting really funny.

Kirkorov traveled to Monte Carlo for The World Music Awards are a show of the best-selling performers in their countries, but it is quite difficult to find a person in Russia who has Kirkorov’s album. Pugacheva, as you know, in 1997 took only 15 place out of 25 at the useless Eurovision.

For some reason, Sergei Lazarev sings in English, something the human brain simply cannot handle. Joseph Prigogine, who became an obsession with pushing Valeria to the West, once said in a paid article in a British newspaper that his wife had sold 100 million albums in Russia.

Most big success was with the rapper Timati when the Swiss DJ Antoine made a remix of Timati's song Welcome to St. Tropez. The song topped the charts all over the world, except for the UK and the US. In Switzerland, the song took sixth place at the end of the year. This is our peak pop singers recently.

Which of our musicians really achieved high places in the Western (and this, in a musical sense, is primarily the USA and Great Britain) charts and is generally more or less known in the West.

1. Composer Aram Khachaturian - 1972

One of the recordings of the music of his ballet “Spartacus” called Spartacus, which Khachaturian made together with the London symphony orchestra, entered the British albums chart in 1972, reached number 16 and stayed there for 15 weeks.

By the way, his music is so popular in the world that it was even used in such famous films as “2001: A Space Odyssey” by Stanley Kubrick, “Aliens” by James Cameron and “Caligula” by Tinto Brass.

2. Boris Grebenshchikov - 1989

His album Radio Silence, released in England and the USA, took 198th place on the Billboard200, despite the fact that it was recorded with the then super-popular group Eurythmics. The video shows BG's performance on David Letterman's popular TV show.

3. Gorky Park-1990

The success of Gorky Park in the USA cannot be exaggerated. They did not conquer America. Just look at their achievements on the charts. On the Billboard Hot 100 they only scored with the single Try To Find Me (81st place and 6 weeks on the chart), and on the Billboard 200 with the album Gorky Park (80th place and 21 weeks on the chart).

But Gorky Park generally sold well - 300 thousand copies sold in America alone - this is a very good result. The group achieved much greater success in Scandinavia. Gorky Park in Norway reached 9th place, and the single Bang - 5th. In Denmark, the album Moscow Calling It even went platinum.

4. Alsou-2000

With the song Before You Love Me "under Britney Spears" got to 27th place for only a week, during the period when they were trying to promote it in Europe after 2nd place at Eurovision.

5. PPK-2001

The Rostov trance project PPK, with the release of a separate single ResuRection (Eduard Artemyev’s melody from the film “Sibiriyada” by Andrei Konchalovsky with the voice of Yuri Gagarin), debuted in the UK immediately in third place!

The song became the first track from Russia to be in hot rotation on BBC Radio One. ResuRection was then released in other countries, where it also charted successfully - number 5 in the Netherlands, number 9 in Belgium, and number 15 in France and number 36 in Australia.

6. Tattoo-2003

In 2002, the English version of their album “200 in the opposite direction” was released and “Tatu” generally became the most popular Russian group in the world. The girls did not become stars of the first magnitude, and their success was not that long, but they sold about 10 million of their records abroad. This is an unattainable result for Russian performers.

The English-language album now has gold status in four countries and platinum in Europe as a whole, the song “All the Things She Said” occupied the first line of the British chart for several weeks, and a cover of The Smiths was performed in the TV series “Gossip Girl” in 2009.

7. Leonid Agutin - 2007

Author " barefoot boy"And Angelika Varum’s husband graduated from the Moscow Jazz School and from his youth was fond of not only pop music, but also a variety of acoustic guitar music- from jazz to flamenco. In the early 2000s, Agutin began playing concerts, and then recorded the album “Cosmopolitan Life” together with Al di Meola, an American virtuoso of the genre. In Germany the album had more than good sales.

8. Eduard Khil - 2009

A well-known, sad and beautiful story, due to which the great pop singer is known in the world as “Mr. Trololo”. On November 26, 2009, user RealPapaPit posted on YouTube the vocalization “I’m very happy, because I’m finally returning home” - today this video has 19 million 700 thousand views.

They say that the singer was even offered an international tour - but he refused. Both Gawker and The New York Times wrote about Gil's death.

9. Pussy Riot-2012

This is the only group here that has not been on the Western charts, but it cannot be ignored. From a musical point of view, this is a comical story. The group, whose songs no one had ever really heard anywhere, became the most famous musical group from Russia in recent times. Suffice it to say that in the West the Cathedral of Christ the Savior is known as Pussy Riot Church.

Soon after the arrest of Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, Maria Alekhina and Ekaterina Samutsevich, musicians around the world began to carry out actions in their support - ranging from Madonna and Paul McCartney to Mike Patton and The Knife and Die Antwoord.

10. Anna Netrebko - 2007 - present

The opera singer was able to achieve real world fame, including the United States. She enjoys particular success in Austria, where she received citizenship. Also lives in New York. Her records are constantly on the charts classical music, but in some countries they also appear on general music charts. Especially in Austria and Germany. Thus, 15 of Netrebko’s albums entered the Austrian chart .

Bonus: The most famous Russian music video in the world

Bloody viral hit "Bad Motherfucker" from Russian group Biting Elbows, shot in first person and therefore more reminiscent of an action video game than music video. The clip was publicly celebrated by Samuel L. Jackson and Darren Aronofsky. 24.6 million views on Youtube.

Modern show business surprises us every year with new faces. New popular Russian singers appear on the starry Olympus more and more often, delighting fans with an original and sometimes rather banal repertoire.

The most popular singers of Russia shine at the biggest concert venues, decorate glossy magazines, perform at important events and excite fans on TV screens.

Often popular Russian singers try themselves in a different role, acting in films, or trying themselves as leading grandiose television projects, but at the same time they manage to successfully perform and tour not only in Russia, but also abroad.

Popular singers of Russia, who have long taken their place in the bowels of show business, and already have their own audience of listeners and fans, cannot always boast only impeccable vocal abilities, they have a special charm, charisma, and, to be honest, gorgeous external characteristics that are a defining feature of their development in show business.

Young popular singers of Russia confidently compete with Russian celebrities the older generation, offering the public new songs, new presentation, new creative experiments.

Many popular Russian singers, despite their star status, are very simple and open people, who do not have star fever at all.

But there are popular Russian singers whose pathos is off the charts. They are stellar in their behavior, in their demands, in their lifestyle.

Such popular Russian singers are not just artists, they behave and present themselves like true stars, which is why they often stand out among the crowd of famous personalities in the world of show business.

Also in our photo top are popular Russian singers from young talents who have been on stage for only a few years, but are already collecting thousands concert halls, delighting his fans with good music.

Who do you think should receive the status of the Most Popular Singer in Russia? Is he on our list of The most popular Russian singers? If not, tell me who he is - the most famous singer Russia...

Who are they... The most popular singers in Russia. Our photo rating of famous showbiz men

In this article you will learn about the most famous, popular and sought-after pop artists in our country. They are very different - young or emerging, beautiful and unique, talented or not. But the public loves them, no matter what, be it a new hit or long legs.

Pop centenarians

These are the “oldest” singers in Russia. Photos of divas regularly throughout for long years appear in and yellow press, and crowds of fans are still hunting for their autographs. This list includes: Alla Pugacheva, Sofia Rotaru, Larisa Dolina, Kadysheva, Lyubov Uspenskaya, Irina Allegrova and Valeria. Of course, this is not a complete list; only those pop artists who are currently able to attract full houses at their concerts are included here. Note: although Alla Pugacheva left the stage, she can return at any moment and gather a whole crowd of fans.

The most beautiful singers Russia

This list includes those pop divas who don’t even have to sing. It’s enough just to go on stage, and millions of men’s hearts will skip a beat from such unearthly (and barely covered) beauty. Well, if they are also talented, have good voice, then nothing can resist this crushing force. So, the most beautiful singers in Russia are Vera Brezhneva, Pletneva, Zhanna Friske, Nyusha, Tatyana Kotova, Tanya Tereshina (group “Yin-Yang”), Sati Kazanova, Svetlana Svetikova, Valeria, Yulia Kovalchuk, Anna Semenovich. It is these divas who not only sing well, but also invariably attract male glances. Many of these singers starred for men's magazines: Playboy, Penthouse and other similar publications. And this once again serves as proof of their beauty.

The most popular singers in Russia

You can be both beautiful and talented, but only the desire of the audience to see a particular singer at a concert or to get her to a corporate event or private party is a real objective indicator of the star’s demand. And demand always creates supply, and the most sought-after artists receive the highest fees. However, I would like to note the fact that Russian singers, like their foreign colleagues, often inflate the amounts they receive for their performances. There are several reasons: firstly, the thought - “what if they give just that much”, secondly, self-promotion - “look how popular I am.” And, of course, the expectation of a purely psychological effect - for many people who “book” stars, the status of the performers is important, and not at all the quality of the songs. This is what many Russian singers take advantage of, asking hundreds of thousands of dollars for a half-hour performance accompanied by a soundtrack. Alla Pugacheva is considered the most expensive: she asks €250 thousand for 5 songs, and only on condition that she does not need to travel further than 500 km from Moscow. Next comes Elena Vaenga - she asks “only” €200 thousand for a forty-minute performance. Among younger generation You can mention the singer Elka - she charges €100 thousand. Zemfira can be ordered for €150 thousand. But the entire “Brilliant” group, wholesale, will cost only €20 thousand.

As a result, we can conclude: Russian singers do not yet reach the level of fees of world celebrities. And none of our stars can yet compare with Rihanna, who earned $8 million in one evening, Beyoncé ($2 million for performing at a private party on a yacht) or Christina Aguilera ($1 million in one hour).

Russian women have been considered the most beautiful and attractive for many centuries. It’s not for nothing that almost all foreign men prefer to marry our girls. In their opinion, they are sexy, charming, proud and loyal. All these qualities distinguish our girls from other representatives of the fair sex. The most beautiful women of Russia are presented in this article.
