Interview
(ABOUT MEETING NATALIA VETLITSKAYA)
“That evening, after the play “Juno and Avos,” a group of musicians and I were planning to go to our friend’s house for dumplings. His wife had been making them all day, preparing for our visit. When we met at the service entrance, the friend, nodding towards the young girl, said : “Well, I was hanging out alone on Tverskaya, eating ice cream. I took her with me." When the car started moving, it suddenly dawned on him that he was taking some underage girl home to his wife. What should I do? It’s inconvenient. “Listen,” he tells her, “decide for yourself, whose girl will you be - Pashina or Yurina? Just not mine.” No one pulled her tongue, she answered: “Pashina.” We arrived at a friend’s house. The friend’s wife, a cunning woman, was watching us all the time: she thought it was suspicious that I was not paying attention to my girlfriend. Seizing the moment, when we went out to smoke on the balcony, she suddenly asks: “Pasha, who will accompany her?” Remembering that this is “my girlfriend,” I answer: “Of course, I!” “Where does she live?” she doesn’t let up? “In Chertanovo,” I blurted out without thinking, and only because I lived there myself. It turns out that my friend’s wife then asked Natasha, just to be sure, where do you live? She answered: “It’s so wonderful.” coincidence! While driving in the car, I found out everything about her. She’s seventeen years old. She graduated from school and doesn’t plan to go anywhere. I only spent time with her for ballroom dancing, fortunately we live in the same area. The girl was young, not yet very spoiled, I was young and free."
(HOW VETLITSKAYA’S RELATIVES TREATED TO HIM)
“I caused a shock in this family. Although we made no secret of our relationship and there were traditional viewings. I introduced her to my parents, Natalya introduced me to hers. Her mother didn’t like me right away - I really don’t look like a diplomat. Neither you have a tuxedo, no bow tie. Just jeans and a beard. I felt that war had been declared on me on the very first day! One day, her parents even came to my house at night, shouted at me all over the entrance, and threatened me with prison. I live with a young girl. When I finally opened the door, her mother began shouting from the doorway: “You’ll see, you’ll be in prison for exactly as long as she’s old!” I will put you in jail for molestation!" By the way, if she wanted, my mother-in-law could really put me in jail - the laws at that time were harsh. But, we must give her her due, she did not do this, although she hated me fiercely. Even when we got married, my mother-in-law solemnly swore that she would lay down her life to separate us.”
(WHAT WAS NATALIA'S WIFE)
“Of course, Natasha was not any kind of wife. She was a spoiled mother’s daughter. She didn’t know how to cook anything, for which she received it from time to time. She raised her, it was the case... She could give a slap on the head if once again the cutlet was fried to the point of a sole. Or, I remember, for several days in a row she cooked me exclusively scrambled eggs - I took it and threw the plate against the wall. Well, how many times can Natasha eat the same thing? Naturally, Natasha did not like this method of education. ".
(DID YOU SERVE YOUR WIFE COFFEE IN BED)
“What more! What debauchery! She’ll get up and drink coffee on her own. She’s not small. Women are like that: if you put them on their necks, they’ll just sit there, their legs dangling. They’ll never get off. The New Testament says: “Let a wife fear her husband.” !"
(ABOUT VETLITSKAYA’S VOCAL DEBUT)
“Once, when they were recording a song from “Mary Poppins...” (“Bad weather.” - Ed.), I dragged her into the studio and asked her to sing the chorus: “Nowhere, nowhere...” That’s where it all started. She was very tense , sang poorly. The first video in our country was shot for this song. In it, Natasha looked out from behind a tree with an umbrella.”
(DID YOUR EX-WIFE CHANGE AFTER THEIR SEPARATION)
“So much time has passed. I don’t know if her character has changed. They say she has become a very tough person. This probably helps her in her career. Yura Titov, her godfather, told me the story. It was eight years ago. He’s great in life It got to him, he even got into some kind of sect and, when he returned to Moscow, he lost his qualifications as a drummer, he didn’t know what to do, so he turned to Vetlitskaya for help, and she got him a job in her studio... as a commandant. complained: “Natalya makes me wipe the dust off the flowers. And he checks it every time - runs his finger. If he suddenly discovers dust, he starts screaming!”
(HOW WOULD YOU COMMENT ON RUMORS ABOUT YOUR DEATH)
“And at that time I was just in the monastery. There is an expression: “If you go to the monastery, you die for the world.” One day I was convinced of this myself. One day I drove up to the “A Thousand Little Things” store. I parked the car and showed the valet the cover of my license “Lenkom.” And for some reason he froze and didn’t move - he stared at me like I was an alien. I came back, and he knocked on my window: “You look so much like one artist, Pavel Smeyan. Are you a relative by any chance? True, he is already dead...” - “Has he been dead for a long time?” - “Yes, two years ago.” I opened my ID. He remained standing on the sidewalk with his mouth open.”
("Caravan of Stories", December 2006)
Becoming at the end of the fiery 80s soloist of the group "Mirage", Natalya Vetlitskaya won the hearts of millions. In the 90s, her songs were heard from all radios. The bright, flexible blonde instantly became a sex symbol of the time. But where did she go at the peak of her popularity in 2004 and why does she attract such interest from journalists?
In one of her posts on social networks, Natalya stated that she did not want to return to her homeland and only wanted peace. Editorial “So Simple!” I decided to find out what happened to the talented singer and what made her leave the country.
Natalya Vetlitskaya and her daughter
Star Vetlitskaya's career began back in 1983, when she took part in recording songs for the film “Mary Poppins, Goodbye.” In 1985, the film “Train Off Schedule” appeared on the screens, in which a song performed by Natalya sounds. In 1988, the artist became one of the soloists of the Mirage group, with which she toured almost the entire USSR. The songs of this group are still listened to and sung to this day.
The singer also pursued a solo career. She released 8 albums, sang with many celebrities, and also starred in several films. By the way, her first solo video was directed by Fyodor Bondarchuk himself. She set trends in haircuts, young girls imitated her, her songs sounded everywhere. But in 2004, she suddenly left the stage, although she was at the peak of her popularity.
Vetlitskaya decided to radically change her life at the age of 40 - she became a mother. True, at first she did not want to give birth, but producer Viktor Yudin persuaded her to keep the child. However, Vetlitskaya has not announced the name of her daughter’s father to this day.
As you may have guessed, Natalia devoted herself completely to the child. She is also very interested in yoga and makes pilgrimages to India several times a year. The former singer lives with her daughter in a small two-story house in the small Spanish town of Denia. She has a nanny and a gardener. Natalya never got married. In her free time, she decorates and restores houses, and also rents out housing in Spain.
Not long ago, Natalya was invited to appear on television in Moscow. To which she gave a very sharp and bold answer, which she posted on the Internet: “When I needed Channel One, it didn’t need me. And now, when I don’t need him at all, he desperately needs me. There is no justice in life."
Glory must no longer attract her at all, because the other day Vetlitskaya posted a daring and arrogant message to media representatives on a social network: “To everyone interested in my interviews and who wants to get in touch with me through my friends and acquaintances, at all costs I want to say only one thing: leave this hopeless idea.
You can try to hound me in your media all you want in an attempt to anger or scare me in order to provoke a response, but the interview will never happen. Because I despise you. Look for another object for your bourgeois curiosity.”
The ex-singer monitors the political and economic situation in her homeland, constantly watches and reads news from Russia. And he speaks quite sharply about life in Moscow, criticizes everything: new laws, roads, changes on television, etc. She has not appeared in the capital for about two years: “For me, Spain is no less dear, but even more so...”
Natalya rarely publishes new photos, but they clearly show that she looks much younger than her 52 years. Apparently, the radical changes in her life only benefited her.
Natalya Vetlitskaya (August 17, 1964, Moscow) - Soviet and Russian singer.
From the age of ten she began to practice ballroom dancing professionally, and then entered a music school to study piano, from which she graduated in 1979 with a gold medal.
At the age of 17, Natalya began running a ballroom dancing school on her own. For ten years, starting in 1974, the future singer repeatedly took part in various ballroom competitions.
Having become the wife of singer Pavel Smeyan, Natalya performed a duet with him several times. In 1985, their performance was shown in the program “Morning Mail”. The song performed by Natalya Vetlitskaya and Pavel Smeyan was called “Ci Sara” (a re-covering of the song by Al Bano and Romina Power). She also participated in the recording of the song “Bad Weather” for the film “Mary Poppins, Goodbye” (she sings along with Pavel Smeyan in the chorus). Pavel and Natalya then performed this song in the same “Morning Mail” (the credits indicated “Pavel and Natalya Smeyan”).
In 1985, having previously worked for about a year in ballet with Alla Pugacheva, Natalya moved to the popular group “Rondo” as a choreographer, dancer and backing vocalist. Then, for two years, starting in 1986, Natalia performed as a dancer and backing vocalist in two more well-known groups: “Class” and “Idea Fix”.
In the same 1985, the disaster film The Unscheduled Train was released on the screens of the country, in which a song performed by Pavel Smeyan and Natalya Vetlitskaya was heard.
And finally, in 1988, Natalya became the lead singer of the super-popular group “Mirage” (All-Union Studio “SPM Record” by Yu. Chernavsky). As part of this group, she toured almost all the cities of the former USSR. At the end of 1987, Natalya, along with other Soviet pop stars, took part in the recording of the song “Closing the Circle,” which was shown on New Year’s television.
After leaving the Mirage group, Natalya begins a solo career. Vetlitskaya gained popularity with the song “Look into your eyes.” The video clip, shot by the famous director Fyodor Bondarchuk, created a sensation in show business. At the first international video clip festival “Generation 92” this clip unanimously won first place. Natalya became the owner of the Golden Apple. Natalya instantly became famous. The press and television declared Natalia a new sex symbol. In the wake of her popularity, the singer released two commercially successful albums, “Look into your eyes” and “Playboy”. Songs from these albums, taking the top lines of various charts, strengthened the singer’s success. Video clips were shot for many compositions, including: the stylized 18th-century costume video “Soul”, the lyrical and tender “Magic Dream”, as well as the defiantly sexy “Playboy”.
In 1996, the singer’s next album, “Slave of Love,” was released. Natalya regained the public's interest in herself and began appearing on screens again. Songs from the new album were constantly in rotation on many radio stations. This was followed by the album “The Best” - a collection of Natalia Vetlitskaya’s best hits.
In 1997, the famous director Dean Mukhametdinov made the musical film “The Newest Adventures of Pinocchio.” Our popular artists starred in this film, and one of the main roles - the insidious and seductive fox Alice - was played by Natalya Vetlitskaya. In the film, the elegant fox Alice performed several compositions, including the lullaby “Sleep, Karabas”, the gangster escapade “Taj Mahal” in a duet with Sergei Mazaev, who played the cat Basilio in the film, and “Whales of Hits” with Bogdan Titomir, who played on the screen image of Karabas Barabas.
Natalia Vetlitskaya's next album, “Think What You Want,” was released in 1998. A video was shot for the title track, in which the singer appeared in the guise of a vamp. The commercial success of this album was secured by several more hit songs, including two lyrical songs performed in a duet with Sergei Mazaev - “Words You Can’t Say” - and Dmitry Malikov - “What a Strange Fate”. During the same period, Vetlitskaya recorded the song “Rivers” in a duet with the leader of the group “Nogu Svelo” Maxim Pokrovsky.
At the end of September 1998, Natalya takes part in the opening ceremony of the MTV Russia television channel, as well as in a concert dedicated to this event.
In 1999, Vetlitskaya’s next album, “Just Like That,” was released. Several tracks from this album took first place in the charts and charts throughout the year. The new gorgeous video “Been there, wasn’t” was constantly in rotation on television. The hit song “Stupid Dreams” that followed it and the video clip that was shot showed that Natalia’s image can be not only defiantly sexy, but also simple and dreamy. The clip was filmed in a virtual studio using the latest computer advances. The success of the album was consolidated by the hit “Bees”. In the same year, Natalya takes part in the filming of the comedy melodrama “Criminal Tango” directed by Dean Mukhametdinov.
At the beginning of 1999, Natalya Vetlitskaya began creating her own production center. “Ramona,” the singer chose the name for her center, included two studios, a dance hall, a VIP dressing room, a bar and an office part. Subsequently, this center became one of the best in Russia, both in terms of musical and technical equipment, and in terms of design.
The beginning of 2001 for Natalia was marked by a new turn in her work. New image, new style and new songs. The new song “Boys” is heard in clubs and discos. TV channels are playing new compositions from the upcoming album: “Snowflake”, “Three Days Until September”, “Boys”, in which Petlyura and his models took part, “Cool, Okay” and “I’m Waiting for a Call”. In addition to working on the new album, Natalya recorded the compositions “Hare Krishna” and “Pushkin”, which were released on various collections. A collaboration between Natalia Vetlitskaya and English DJ and producer Tee Smith, a resident of the English club Ministry of Sound, called “Mama Loka (Tee Smith’s zone edit)” is heard on the dance floors of Europe. Having visited Natalia Vetlitskaya’s studio at the end of 2002 to work on her new songs performed in English, French and Spanish, T. Smith made several remixes of the song “Mama Loka” (“Crazy Mom” translated from Spanish). One of them premiered in November 2002 on the English radio station Soul City. As a result, it took 30th place in the hit parade of club and dance remixes in English, German, French and other European countries. Plus the official release of a remix on the “CLUB TOOLS” compilation by the German record company Edel Records. On the eve of the release of Natalia’s new album, fans saw several more fresh video clips: “Halves”, “Eyes the color of whiskey” and “Petals”. The release of the singer’s latest album to date, “My Favorite...”, took place at the beginning of 2004. At the moment, Natalya is recording two albums in parallel in the studio, one of which will be non-commercial, with a jazz-rock focus. Thus, Natalya is making her long-time dream come true.

In addition to her musical activities, Natalya is also involved in charity work. Since 1999, Natalya has constantly provided financial assistance to children of psychoneurological hospital No. 4, located in the village of Nikolskoye, Ruza district.

There is practically no news about the singer. It is known that she lives with her daughter in a beautiful house in an elite area of the Spanish city of Denia. Recently, paparazzi photographed Natalya Vetlitskaya and Ulyana in a local supermarket: 
Natalia's devoted fans still hope that someday they will see the singer in new musical projects in Russia.
The biography of Natalia Vetlitskaya has never been a secret, but because of this it has not become less interesting and entertaining. Today we will trace not only the life, but also the creative path of the singer. Let's try to reveal a few secrets that Natalia Vetlitskaya's biography hides.
Childhood and teenage years of the future star
On August 17, 1964, the family of nuclear physicist Igor Vetlitsky and piano teacher Evgenia grew by one person. They had a daughter, Natalya.
Starting from the age of ten, the girl began to show her creative abilities: she was actively involved in ballroom dancing and studied at a music school. Young Natasha followed in her mother’s footsteps in her musical passions - she chose a piano class, which she graduated from in 1979 with a gold medal.
Shortly before the release of the first album with the participation of the singer, Natalya worked as a choreographer in the ballet “Recital”.
The beginning of a musical career
Natasha took her first steps as a member of the Rondo group not as a singer, but as a choreographer and dancer. Only after some time she became a backing vocalist.
The singer did not stop there; since 1986, she has continued to develop and performs backing vocals in two more groups: “Class” and “Idea Fix”.
And in the disaster film “Unscheduled Train,” the soundtrack features a composition performed by vocalist Vetlitskaya.
Career advancement was marked by Natalia’s ideal entry into the Mirage group. Since 1988, she became the soloist of this mega-popular Soviet group, but at the beginning of 1990 she left it.
In the same year, the girl appeared on television for the first time.
Vetlitskaya's solo career. European recognition
The song “Look into your eyes” became the composition that paved the way for the singer to the pop Olympus. This happened in 1993.
Now the biography of Natalia Vetlitskaya began to be perceived not as the life of a Soviet singer, but as the creative path of a Russian star and main sex symbol.
In the same year, the performer’s video, based on the song “Look into your eyes,” went beyond the borders of our country - it was shown on European MTV.
The only clip that could surpass Natalia's brainchild was the work of the French woman Rita Mitsouko. It was she who was awarded the title of owner of the best European video.
Discography of Natalia Igorevna Vetlitskaya
After a slight failure at the European level, the biography of Natalya Vetlitskaya began to be enriched with new achievements. The albums “Look into your eyes” (1992) and Playboy (1994) were released one after another. Then the girl took a short sabbatical, but in 1996 “Slave of Love” was released. It thundered throughout Russia and returned the singer to the top of the charts.
This is how Natalya Vetlitskaya resumed her solo career. The girl’s biography (see photo in the article) says that the video based on this composition was the pinnacle of her creativity. And the album The Best (1998) is still considered the best collection.
The last album of the outgoing century was the collection “Just Like That,” released in 1999. And the debut for the new century is ClubTools (2003).
Before the release of the disc “My Beloved” (2004), Natalya Vetlitskaya, whose biography is positioned as a solo one, shoots several more videos: “Halves”, “Petals”, “Eyes the color of whiskey”.
In the period from 2004 to 2009, fans were presented with several more videos for the composition: “Bird” and “It’s not that simple.”
Natalya Vetlitskaya: biography, husband, children
In 2015, Natalya Vetlitskaya crossed the fifty-year mark: the singer turned 51 years old. Over the years, the woman’s life has progressed not only on the star stage, but also on the personal front.
She was married 4 times. And this is only if we take into account official marriages.
Natalia's first marriage was with Pavel Smeyan. At that time, the girl was barely 17 years old.
The second officially lasted 10 days. The girl was in a relationship with Evgeny Belousov for only 3 months.
The divorce from her third husband, Kirill Kirin, became the most difficult for her, and so she decided to take a break from family life.
This vacation accommodated four common-law husbands. Among them we meet such famous personalities as Vlad Stashevsky, Mikhail Topalov, Dmitry Malikov and Suleiman Kerimov.
The fourth marriage of the Russian singer became more successful, because it still lasts.
The birth of a daughter in 2004 caused a temporary break in her musical career. Considering that the name of the girl’s father is still unknown, there are rumors that Mikhail Topalov was involved in this. But this has not been proven, so it is officially believed that Alexey is the father.
Trying to escape public gossip, the singer buys a house in Spain. She now lives with her fourth husband, a yoga trainer, in this villa.
The woman abandoned her singing career and is exclusively engaged in interior design of residential premises: she buys, restores and resells them.
