When Valery Meladze married. Albina Dzhanabaeva and Valery Meladze - a secret romance, wedding, joint photos

On the eve of the Day of the registry office on December 18, StarHit met with Dmitry Kulakov, who saw more stellar celebrations than anyone else. He worked all his life as a driver and at the same time was fond of pigeons - the pensioner has more than a hundred birds, every day he goes to their own dovecote to feed and tidy up the cages. Kulakov's wife and children approve of his hobby, as well as the fact that he spends the last ten years five days a week at the Kutuzovsky registry office - he invites the newlyweds to launch a pair of snow-white birds into the sky.

Among his clients are Keti Topuria and her husband Lev Geykhman, Lera Kudryavtseva with Igor Makarov, Ekaterina Volkova and Andrey Karpov, Gennady Zyuganov and others.

Run, Valera, run!

Most of all, Kulakov remembered the resident comedy club Garik Kharlamov, who married actress Christina Asmus in August 2013.

“Both he and his bride were respectful, addressed me as you, smiled a lot,” says Dmitry Ivanovich. - I offered them pigeons, Garik agreed, asked how much it would cost. I replied that 2500 was the standard fee for my services and he handed me the money. I did not count, but I felt that there was more than necessary in the palm of my hand. Later I saw that Garik gave twice as much - until now, for this he kind word I remember. After all, this work is a good addition to my pension, which I have only 15 thousand, which is not enough to feed and vaccinate the birds.”

With a smile, the dovecote also recalls the wedding of TV presenter Lera Kudryavtseva and hockey player Igor Makarov.

“As soon as the organizer of the celebration saw me, she immediately shouted: “No pigeons!” - says Dmitry Ivanovich. - Well there is no way. I stood on the sidelines and watched the ceremony. Here comes a man. He held out his hand: “Hello, I’m Sergey, the father of the groom. Do not listen to anyone, we must have pigeons!” He paid, and after the newly-made spouses left the registry office, I gave him the birds so that he would give them to the young. Lera was delighted - the pigeons flew in one direction, she clapped her hands, kissed her husband.

But the singer Valery Meladze Dmitry Ivanovich, unwittingly, scared.

“Two years ago, there were almost no guests at their celebration with Albina Dzhanabaeva, only a couple of friends,” continues the dovecote. - It was clear from everything that Meladze did not want to attract attention to himself - he entered the building, looking around. I decided not to approach him and just watched. Valery looked at me disapprovingly, while saying something to his friends. And after painting, they immediately went to the exit, then Valery even quickened his pace, ran to the car, holding Albina by the hand. I didn't understand anything... "What's wrong with him?" - I ask the registry office workers. It turned out that Valery decided that I was a photographer, standing here for exclusive shots from his wedding.

PEOPLE OF ANOTHER LEVEL

Dovecote notes that the stars with whom he had to communicate are brave people. “Everyone took the birds in their hands without fear,” Dmitry Ivanovich shares. - And rightly so, what to be afraid of! They are trained by me, besides, I don’t feed them before going to the registry office. For 10 years of work, only once a dove on Wedding Dress done. But this is not dangerous - these birds have a special droppings, splash water on it, and it will roll down.

Among the clients of Dmitry Ivanovich are not only movie stars and pop stars. He also had to work with politicians. On the eve of Victory Day in 2013, a representative of Gennady Zyuganov called Kulakov.

“He asked on May 9 to deliver 68 white doves to the Chairman of the Council of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation at Lubyanka Square - one for each year since Victory Day. That's exactly what I did. He did not take money from the politician - in honor of the great holiday. And the pigeon, which Zyuganov held in his hands, still lives with me - it is considered elite.

But not all celebrities react kindly to Kulakov's offer to use his services. For example, Marat Basharov on May 31, 2014 - on the day of his marriage to actress Ekaterina Arkharova - considered the "pigeon service" intrusive. “The salesgirls from a nearby store told about this,” Dmitry Ivanovich recalls. - I’m not on the Internet, but they read on social networks that Basharov wrote on his blog after the wedding - they say, some uncle came up, he had 15 pigeons with him, very zealously tried to sell them to me. How do I get 15 of them? I always stand with two ... Yes, and I don’t impose my birds on anyone - I’ll offer it once and that’s it.

The dovecote also remembered the incident at the wedding of the scandalous singer Prokhor Chaliapin and businesswoman Larisa Kopenkina.

At a recent celebration of the birthday of Vladimir Presnyakov, held in one of the restaurants in Moscow, Valery Meladze and Albina Dzhanabaeva appeared together among the guests. We have already published a report from the evening, and now we present new photos of the couple that were at the disposal of HELLO.RU. Looking at these pictures, you can see how happy Albina and Valery are with each other - at the holiday they enjoyed every minute spent together, danced to the cover version of the song "Zurbagan", laughed a lot and wished Vladimir all the very best.

Volodya, like his songs, has so much warmth! - said Valery Meladze HELLO! - He always has a smile - both for a friend and for a simple passerby. He is constantly joking. Vova came up with the idea of ​​calling Agutin Agutka, himself Presnyachk, and me Meladzerka. It's cute and funny.

Dance of Valery Meladze and Albina Dzhanabaeva

Valery Meladze and Albina Dzhanabaeva, raising two sons - 11-year-old Kostya and 2-year-old Luka - are considered one of the most closed couples Russian show business. They rarely appear at events together and talk about their family too often. Valery and Albina made an exception only a few times - for example, in the Tonight program on Channel One in September last year. Then Valery said that so far none of the sons has shown the ability to be creative: Luka is still too small for self-determination, and Kostya, named after Valery's brother Konstantin Meladze, gravitates more towards the exact sciences.

Kostya is most likely to be an engineer or an inventor. He has a very well developed brain in this direction, he is very well versed in technology, - said Valery.

As Albina noted in an interview with HELLO!, the sons get along well with each other.

Kostya was so looking forward to the birth of Luka! At one point, he began to behave like an older brother should. I do not see jealousy on his part, only brotherly care and interest, he notices all the little things, draws attention to the new things that Luka is learning.

Valery Meladze and Albina Dzhanabaeva are still trying to avoid public coverage of their personal life. Despite the fact that Valery officially divorced his wife Irina and has been living with the mother of his two sons, 11-year-old Konstantin and 2-year-old Luka, for two years now, the artists are still not official spouses. Or they simply do not want to advertise it.

The first rumors about the wedding of Valery and Albina appeared exactly a year ago. The source was Vera Brezhneva, who posted a picture on her Instagram wedding cake with the initials VA. And the other day this information was confirmed by… dovecote Dmitry Ivanovich Kulakov.

This middle-aged man lives near the Kutuzovsky registry office in Moscow and has long been breeding pigeons. And recently, his hobby has become for a pensioner extra income. He invites the newlyweds to launch snow-white birds into the sky during wedding ceremony. And thanks to his unusual occupation, he saw a lot of star couples ...

Valery Meladze secretly married Albina Dzhanabaeva before the birth of her youngest son

Many paparazzi can envy an elderly dovecote today. The man told reporters that he saw with his own eyes the wedding of Valery Meladze and Albina Dzhanabaeva. True, according to the words of the dovecote, it was two years ago.

According to him, the star newlyweds were in a hurry, and all the time they looked around, fearing the annoying attention of journalists. Apparently, they also took Dmitry Ivanovich for the paparazzi, since Valery kept looking warily in his direction.

There were few guests with them, only a few people. The stars also left the registry office quickly, and, sitting in cars, sped away. Pigeons, of course, the pensioner did not even offer them.

Here is how Dmitry Ivanovich himself tells about this case:

Two years ago, there were almost no guests at their celebration with Albina Dzhanabaeva, only a couple of friends. It was clear from everything that Meladze did not want to attract attention to himself - he entered the building, looking around. I decided not to approach him and just watched. Valery looked at me disapprovingly, while saying something to his friends. And after painting, they immediately went to the exit, then Valery even quickened his pace, ran to the car, holding Albina by the hand. I didn't understand anything... "What's wrong with him?" - I ask the registry office workers. It turned out that Valery decided that I was a photographer, standing here for exclusive shots from his wedding.

One can only guess why Valery and Albina let in so much fog around such a joyful and significant event. Would take better example from the wise Konstantin Meladze, who does not hide his family happiness with his young wife Vera Brezhneva.

Opposites attract. This law of nature is once again confirmed by famous artists in their first joint interview.

ABOUT neither enter the frame, and the only thing left for the camera is to click the shutter. Any angle is good, in front of the lens is a real movie, what is called the chemistry of relationships. The retro style is close to them - it seems that the observers have fallen into the past and see the usual picture at the bar, and not modern artists who tried on the images of Bonnie and Clyde. Valery showers Albina with compliments. “I told Albina many times that I would like to see her in such a way,” he notes. “It is quite possible that this photo shoot will help her adopt this style. In my life, shooting a video or photo shoot often led to image changes. a secondary thing comes to the fore. Many years ago I had a similar photo session, but the main thing was missing - a woman. A shadow in the background, a female silhouette - and everything would have worked out. When there is a mood in the frame, it immediately works on the image. With duet songs too.If a real duet happens between a man and a woman, no one pulls the blanket over himself, then the song shoots powerfully.In the case of Albina, we don’t even need to agree, everything worked out for us a long time ago ( laughs)".

At the "Heat" festival in Baku, you and Albina presented a duet. How did you choose the song "No fuss"?

We prepared it for television program, and then decided to sing at my evening as part of the festival. They did not take it seriously - they thought it was a one-time action. But the success of the duo suggests that it may be worth continuing in this direction.

Before that, Albina sang your song "Samba" of the white moth ...

Yes, she chose it herself, she always liked this song very much. She did a great arrangement.

Albina and Valery have different tastes, outlook on the world, temperament, but this does not prevent them from "looking in the same direction"
(Albina: blouse, Alberta Ferretti; trench coat, Escada; beret with veil, Bessarion; earrings, ring, Mercury. Valery: shirt, Kiton; suit, Brioni; coat, Ermenegildo Zegna; chain watch, Patek Philippe)

I am surprised by the comments "Do you really want to cover Valery?". Not at all, no one can do it. We have different temperaments and I wanted to sing it my own way. I invited the arranger Alex Davia, and we created a dance composition.

November 16 in the Kremlin anniversary concert"Valeriy Meladze". The program turned out not to be too strict, as one might think ...

I am strict and restrained only when I bring up children. But in life, and especially on stage, I am very emotional person. Spectators are convinced every time that emotions at the concert are overflowing. After all, my songs are about love, about relationships. With a touch of sadness and humor. Concert in the Kremlin consisted of best songs, which were invented during the 20+ years that I have been on stage, and a block of new compositions. Sometimes I consult with the audience, choosing the repertoire, I ask what they want to hear.

Many artists go to different experiments to "catch the hype", to attract attention. It's hard to imagine you in their place. Is this path unacceptable for you?

As much as I don't like the word "hype", I don't like everything that it means. And many for the sake of this make inappropriate steps. My brother Kostya and I never give in general flow. Some time ago even a duet with a band" VIA Gra"was perceived as a challenge. Like, how can you, an adult solid singer, sing with a frivolous team. But it turned out two great work that I'm proud of. Especially "Attraction No More". Then Kostya and I don’t have the feeling that we have reached a creative dead end. I have an image creative reputation, which I did not easily get, which I value, and there is a great prospect for activity. Why take drastic steps away from what is already so good?

In understanding your personality, it is important to take into account the fact that you are the son of Georgia, although you have been living in Moscow for a long time, and in terms of the amount of talent you have long become a man of the world. Or have you moved away from your small homeland?

In no case did I move away from her, but I met many people who were consonant with me, with the same views on life, who were born and raised in Uzbekistan, Azerbaijan, Armenia, the Baltic States ... Then we all influenced each other. Now they see more negative things in the USSR, but, in my opinion, there were many positive things: the penetration of cultures. This merger gave a very interesting powerful effect in art, music, literature... Of course, I have a Georgian mentality to some extent, but my life principles not so much national as universal. I look at everything simply - from the point of view of a responsible person. And my children take an example from me.

Every man is pleased when next to him bright woman. But is it hard for you to accept that she is so independent, brave?

I like it. Once upon a time I realized that human relations are based on freedom. Either you trust a person, or you don’t, then at least surround him with fences, don’t let him go anywhere - nothing makes sense. The high of a relationship is in a situation where you give a person complete freedom, and he chooses you. If allowed to be realized, he will be happy. And not to give - he will feel inferior. I like everything in our relationship.

Your work requires a lot of dedication. Both you and Albina need a rear. Have you ever discussed the question that being two stars under one roof is incompatible with ordinary life?

There is such an opinion. Not only did we not face this problem, we just adapted. When I have concerts, Albina is waiting for me at home, where comfort and order reign. When she has concerts, I am waiting for her: I sit quietly at the TV in home clothes. And it happens that we go to some kind of "Heat", and both are already in the role of people who are preparing for the stage. Everything human is forgotten, the artistic comes to the fore, but this requires a certain concentration. It is necessary that no one touches you, does not interfere. We have different dressing rooms, and we can arrive on different flights and not even cross paths backstage. Everyone on their own, at their own pace.

Albina, your comment is simply needed here. Valery destroyed the stereotypes about the Georgian man...

From the very beginning of our relationship, he understood that freedom and realization were important to me, and he supported me in everything. I know that he will always wait, listen. He is really the rear for me in this regard. Maybe this role was not so easy for him. After the birth of Luka, our youngest son, in my creative life there was a pause. So comfortable for me, I even caught myself thinking that I had disappeared into the family. I think Valerie was fine with that. I was at home for as long as I wanted. A year later, she gradually began to work, everything went naturally, and there were no obstacles on his part. And now, having returned to the stage, I have not given up my female role. There are people who help, but a woman needs some functions to maintain the right energy. I love doing housework and cooking. The man feels it.

Albina took place not only as a singer, but also as an actress. In 2012 she played leading role in the film "Treason" by Kirill Serebrennikov, she can also be seen in a private performance " Bad habits", where she performs with Igor Ugolnikov, Sergei Shakurov and Daniil Spivakovsky.

Can Valery insist on something?

Can explain so that I will listen. For me, of course, his opinion is important. So - do not insist, but convince.

Albina, does your education as a psychologist help in life?

Interferes! ( Laughs.)

I must say that I am not a real psychologist. It’s just that once in my life a not very simple moment came, and I wanted to help myself figure it out, switch, get to know new people. Sometimes you are so obsessed with the problems in your world that you need a look from the outside to look at the situation from a different angle. I continued to work on stage, and during my studies my problems began to resolve themselves. But I was brought up in such a way that I bring things to the end. Therefore, I finished my studies, defended my diploma. Valery acted directly as a tempter. I have an exam, I'm sitting at the computer, lined with books, and he: "Let's go to the cinema? Let's go to a restaurant?" I so wanted! But I refused.

In fact, I was surprised, delighted. I am an inconsistent person in this regard. I don’t like it - I’ll suffer, suffer and break off.

Well, how can you like a session? 15 credits... I wanted to drop everything and go to the movies with you! When I entered, it seemed to me that it was something easy, but there were so many different disciplines! And this is a directly academic education - a psychological and pedagogical institute, people conduct receptions after graduation.

Russia is a country where they don't go to psychologists. People go to the baths, go hunting, fishing, gather at the table, chat with friends.

Not true!

I tried. Talking with friends is much easier to decide. In general, the further you go, the more clearly you see the whole matrix of life: why complicate everything, everything is so simple! Sometimes I get downright insights about this. I even wrote down my thoughts one evening. In the morning I read - what nonsense!

But the introspection session took place. Albina, the theme of your diploma is devoted to relationships with teenagers. Does this study help you live with your 14 year old son?

Maybe yes. As a child, Kostya was more accommodating, but now he is rebellious.

He rebels delicately but persistently. Kostya is calm and scrupulous. If he is interested in something, he can enthusiastically study the subject. He read a lot of technical adult books. Whatever we talk about - and it's very different areas- he is able to maintain a conversation on deep level. It pleasantly surprises me how today's youth can assimilate and analyze a huge amount of information. But if he doesn't want to do something, we can't force him. He is a strong guy, and we are sympathetic to this.

It took me a lot of effort to get into this position. I was brought up differently. In addition to the diploma of a psychologist, Valery helps, he has enough patience, love and attention. I admire the way he communicates with the guys. I would be more emotional.

Albina and Valery are raising two sons: 14-year-old Konstantin and four-year-old Luka. After the birth of her youngest son, Albina took a year off, now her career is actively developing

It turns out that Valery acts as a senior comrade, wise with experience ...

This is a slightly exaggerated image, we do not particularly feel the difference in age. In some matters related to the house, life, I feel more competent. We are like communicating vessels. And over time, they generally turned into a single whole.

Do kids distract you from each other or make the relationship richer?

We always find time for ourselves. Children fill our lives, with the birth of Luka, she shone with all the colors of the rainbow. This new level, and our relations as well. Like all parents, we had sleepless nights, and Valera helped a lot. Opened up to me like a dad. He was fully engaged, intercepted the initiative.

Some perfect man...

Valery is very the responsible person. And the fact that we chose each other was a conscious decision that did not relieve him of responsibility in relation to all those with whom his life connected him.

If we talk about Bonnie and Clyde, then their relationship was fueled by criminal stories, in your case, what is it? When you look at your photos or performances on stage, it seems that you just met. You have an enthusiastic attitude towards each other.

Maybe it's just true?

I'm sure it's true because it's true. ( Laughs.)

Albina: trench coat, Yana; dress, Chanel; shoes, Ekonika; earrings, Pasquale Bruni; ring, Garrard. Valery: shirt, Kiton; suit, Brioni; coat, Ermenegildo Zegna; hat, Borsalino; boots, Pantanetti

What allows you to look at each other in a new way?

You know, I want the first love to last longer, so the inner mood is important. Then I realized that you definitely need to talk if something is wrong. Pouting and being silent, freaking out, slamming the door, harboring only resentment and the thought “they don’t understand me” is the road to nowhere. We are with different planets, this should be taken for granted. You can’t wait for a person who fully understands you, this will not happen. We must talk. Another thing is that in order to start communicating first after a quarrel, you need to step over yourself. Probably because I am older, wiser, as a rule, I start the conversation first. Although Albina also now, sometimes, initiates a movement towards, and this makes me very happy. To be honest, I don’t need anything else, the essence of the conversation is secondary to the desire to communicate in principle. You can not talk at all, just sit next to each other, look at each other. But I hope we will master this level in 20-30 years.

Recently, Albina Dzhanabaeva congratulated Valery Meladze on June 23 popular singer turned 53 years old, and now she spoke about family life with him in an interview with the Russian edition of Telenedelya.

In 2014, Valery and Albina registered their relationship, which began long before that. Now the couple is raising two sons, 14-year-old Konstantin and Luka, who will turn four next week.

On the birth of children and difficulties:
In my life there were different periods. With my youngest son, Luka, I sat for a long time in maternity leave— this is my own decision, and it was a pleasure for me. With the eldest, Kostya, it turned out differently: I started touring very early - at that time he was not even six months old. And the work is so intensive that it was difficult to combine it with the upbringing of a baby. The VIA Gra group was in its prime, we traveled a lot - we gave concerts almost every day. Of course, when I came home, I tried my best to compensate Kostya for my absence. But what can you do when you have two days left with your child, and he has not seen you for a week before? Of course, I was nervous all the time because of the whole situation. But I became part of the group and could not say: "You know, I need to stay at home - I'll probably miss this tour, I won't go with you."

About the hobbies of the eldest son Konstantin:
While doing a little of everything. Swimming - here he has serious successes, medals and awards. Golf, teaches languages. We try to encourage his interests. Surprisingly, with a complete, it would seem, lack of free time (studying at school, lessons at home, sections), he manages to watch movies and manages to show us knowledge about these films - both premieres and old films, 1970-80s . Maybe he mastered some secret way high-speed movie viewing? Don't know. But when we discuss what we saw with him, I understand that he has his own special view of cinema - the view of a film critic. He knows how to clearly and correctly discuss what he has seen, to see the goals and objectives, their implementation, he structures everything very competently. And maybe that's his future.

ABOUT younger son Luke:
He is a very energetic child. We recently sent him to gymnastics, for an hour a day he runs there, jumps, jumps on trampolines, and only after that, after leaving the training session, he slightly loses his excess energy, and you can communicate with him like a human being. Otherwise, he does not sit still for a second.

On the influence of Valery Meladze on his sons:
It seems to me that in general, any dad is connected to the upbringing of children when they are already becoming a little older. They love to go to the pool together, walk, watch movies. Sometimes Kostya comes with some kind of microcircuits, light bulbs, the two of them sit down and figure out how everything works.
