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 of the older generation, offering the public new songs, new presentation, new creative experiments.

Many popular singers in Russia, 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.

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 in Russia...

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

Not far away, an authoritative and foreign, namely British, magazine New Musical Express conducted a survey in which twenty outstanding musical performers in the history of music were named. Over 10 million people took part in the survey, which indicates a relatively large audience reach. However, like everything like this, the results of this action are very, very controversial. But that’s why they are statistics, so that they have nothing to do with life. For example, for some reason my interests constantly do not coincide, so to speak, with the people's jury in the Miss Bikini competition and similar ones.

The leader in the poll is the now deceased Michael Jackson, with the result in 9.2 points from 10 possibly recognized as the best performer in the same history of music. Without wishing to slander this wonderful “singer,” however, for me his victory is more likely a big misunderstanding than a pattern. A performer is first and foremost a vocalist, and what kind of vocalist is Jackson? If you compare him with Kirkorov, then he is incomparable, but when such names appear next to each other in the list as competitors, then the singer’s first place looks simply ridiculous. Yes, he is a great showman, a super-duper dancer, the best performer of pop ideas among the masses, but by no means the best performer of songs. This is what it means to leave on time. Where is the world heading?
In general, all polls, ratings and other unknown measures of pathos are called differently, but they carry one question as old as the world - who (what) is more popular. And what does this have to do with the best performers, the best guitarists, the best songs, etc.? All these things are very subjective.

The band's frontman took second place in the top Queen - Freddie Mercury, with their 8.39 points. He has not yet matured to the glory Michael's, needless to say. To make sure of this, you can listen to their song together for comparison. State Of Shock, recently brought to public attention from the dark corners of recording studios, where Freddie completely fades against the background of the wonderful moans and squeals of his colleague.

Lennon ranked fifth Plant, McCartney, Cobain and even lower.

Almost half of the chosen ones, namely nine people, are no longer present in the world, but the relatively young talent Matthew Bellamy from a recently popular group Muse managed to gain a foothold even in the middle of the list. The rating also included two representatives of the fair sex - Aretha Franklin And Tina Turner. Discrimination, and that's all!

So, the list itself of the best performers of all time from New Musical Express. If you also hope to see the rest of the greatest vocalists and performers in it, the same Dio, Klaus Meine, Joplin, Bonnie Tyler or similar, screw you. One good thing is that the ubiquitous Lady Kwa-Kwa and Britney, who is Spears, for some reason did not penetrate here, and old Madonna is not visible.
