A person cannot live without music, it is so strange that he is arranged. Music and songs are always in our heads and souls throughout our lives. Who in Russia contributes to what we hear and what we listen to? Let's talk about "women who sing ...".

The youngest female singers

The Russian stage today is “staffed”, and new young stars appear less and less on it. Although, it is worth noting that our singers look so good on stage and screens that it is difficult to guess their age.

But just a couple of years ago, the music charts were attacked by very young singers. Largely thanks to the "Star Factory" at concerts and on the radio, girls began to appear more and more often, who were far from even coming of age. The Forge of Stars presented the stage with Julia Savicheva, Victoria Daineko, Polina Gagarina and many other beautiful and talented singers. Today, these girls have already achieved a lot: they have their own albums, awards, participation in the most prestigious competitions and charts. But, alas, age takes its toll, and they no longer fall into the top three of the rating “The Youngest Singers of Russia in 2015”.

Of course, it is indecent to find out and announce the age of a woman, so let's talk about only three of the fair sex with good vocal abilities. You can still not hide the age of these singers, but, on the contrary, be proud that in their years the girls became famous:

3. Yulia Parshuta (former member of the Yin-Yang group), a native of the resort city of Sochi. She turned 27 this year.

2. Nyusha (Anna Vladimirovna Shurochkina), place of birth, Moscow, will celebrate her 25th anniversary in August this year.

3. Nyuta Ranetka (Anna Dmitrievna Baidavletova) is from Stavropol. In November of this year, the talented and cheerful girl will turn 23 years old.

Honored and beloved singers of Russia

Everything comes and goes, but art and music live forever. Just like the music, songs and singers that we know and love for a very long time live in our hearts. For many, they evoke warm memories of childhood, carefree youth or blooming youth. Their songs are stories of love, sadness, joy and fate.

Folk singers of Russia are whole epochs both in the musical annals of the country and in the life of almost every citizen. There may be plenty of merit, awards and victories in various tops, but not everyone is awarded the title of "People's Artist of Russia (RSFSR, USSR)".

1. Pugacheva A. B. received this title in 1985, 1980 and 1991.

2. Rotaru S. M. - in 1988

3. Allegrova I. A. - in 2010

4. Zykina L. G. - in 1973

5. Tolkunova V. V - in 1987

The most persistent

Musical tastes change with each new generation. Once loved romances, then - rock and roll, music in the style of pop, chanson, rap, and so on ad infinitum. It is very difficult to always be on the crest of a musical wave. But there are Russian singers whom we have known for a very long time, they grow creatively and change before the eyes of their beloved listeners.

    Valeria recorded her first album in 1992. By the way, a few years ago she received the title of "People's Artist". To date, the singer has 15 albums (56 singles).

    Anzhelika Varum released her first album in 1991, 13 albums have been released to date.

    Kristina Orbakaite released her first album in 1994, since then more than 150 songs, 10 albums have been released. Christina also participates in musicals, theatrical productions and acts in films.

Of course, these are not all Russian singers who have long delighted listeners with their singles. These are just three of the leaders who were popular at the beginning of the career ladder and are not losing ground to this day.

Most Popular Female Singers

In musical circles, various ratings are very often compiled. Every music show, radio station, TV channel, print publication and website considers it their duty to compile a list of the most popular musicians.

So, today the popular singers of Russia are the following representatives of the musical world:

  • Ani Lorak;

    Elena Vaenga;

    Polina Gagarina;

    Anna Netrebko;

    Vera Brezhneva;

The most scandalous singers

Russian singers do not earn their popularity with singles alone. Often, information from their personal lives leaks into the press at the suggestion of the artists themselves. So that the listener does not forget about the artist, even when he has a sabbatical, you need to make sure that they talk about him. Here the stars go to various tricks to raise at least a little hype around their name.

Nyusha's outfits always arouse interest and long discussions. Fashion critics and reporters go to her concerts with curiosity to express their opinion about the scandalous and revealing costumes.

Masha Rasputina was famous for her spectacular introductions from the first years on the stage. Her appearance on stage and in the hall attracted the eyes of viewers, who watched the eccentric singer with surprise and a smile.

The viewer did not know what to see when Lolita Milyavskaya sings on stage. She always brought a spark to the concert program.

The plastic surgery of the singer Sasha Project has also become a scandalous topic.

The press informs the fans about the illness stories of the artists with lightning speed. Not so long ago, everyone was worried about Zhanna Friske and was horrified at how the fate of Tamara Miansarova turned out.

Their concerts still attract millions of fans. And all this despite the fact that they also have the right to call themselves "old-timers of the stage."
