Andrey Kobzon: biography, family
He was born in 1974 in Moscow. His parents don't need much introduction. Andrei's father is the People's Artist of the USSR Iosif Kobzon. His mother, Ninel Mikhailovna, is an Honored Worker of Culture of the Russian Federation.
Andrey has a younger sister, Natalia (b. 1976). She is married to lawyer Rappoport Yuri. The couple live in London and have four children.
Childhood and youth
Our hero grew up as an active and inquisitive boy. At first, his parents did not attach importance to his pranks. But every year the situation only worsened. Andrei turned into a bully and rowdy. He could get into a fight with a neighbor boy, step on a dog's tail, or smash windows in the house with a ball.
Nanny Cook looked after our hero. The woman tried to teach him the rules of etiquette, proper communication with children and adults. But Andryusha did not succumb to such upbringing. Perhaps he simply did not have enough attention from his father. Joseph Davydovich was constantly on tour. And my mother had Andrey's younger sister, Natasha, in her upbringing. He was very jealous of her parent. When the girl grew up, Ninel Mikhailovna began to accompany her husband on his trips. And the children were taken care of by a nanny or their own grandmother.
Adult life
In high school, Andrei was still able to pull himself together and graduate from high school. His parents wanted him to become a diplomat. Therefore, they sent the offspring to study in London. But there the guy stayed only 3 days. And all thanks to Vladimir Spivakov. He convinced Kobzon Sr. and Ninel that their son had a talent for music. Andrei was returned to Moscow. And a couple of months later he went to the USA. Our hero successfully graduated from the Music Institute in Hollywood.
Relationship with father
Iosif Davydovich has never been an exemplary parent. He practically did not raise his son when he was small. But when Andrei matured, Kobzon Sr. decided to interfere in his business and personal life. Because of this, conflicts often arose between father and son. Recently, their relationship began to improve. The only thing that the People's Artist of the USSR still cannot come to terms with is Andrey's hairstyle. Or rather, with her absence.
Music
From an early age, our hero showed his creative abilities. Seeing this, the parents enrolled their son in a music school. The boy enjoyed attending classes.
For several years Andrey Kobzon was a drummer in a group"Sunday". If you think that he got into the team thanks to his last name and good connections, then you are greatly mistaken. Our hero was selected on an equal footing with everyone. Members of the Resurrection group noted that he had great talent and perfect hearing. He became friends with Andrei Sapunov and Alexei Romanov. Together, the guys moved to another team - "Moral Code".
In 1990, Kobzon Jr. created the Giusto club. Fans of such a musical direction as house were regular visitors to this institution. In 1997, Giusto turned into a nightclub, which only representatives of the capital's beau monde could get into.
Andrey Kobzon: personal life
Our hero cannot be called a womanizer and ladies' man. He never recognized fleeting romance and relationships that do not oblige to anything. The young man is used to being responsible for his actions.
Kobzon Andrei Iosifovich twice went to the registry office. He met his first wife, fashion model Ekaterina Polyanskaya, at the age of 19. The young rock and roll player immediately realized that he wanted to marry her. But then he could not offer the girl a comfortable life. To remedy the situation, Andrei went into business. At first, he was a co-owner of clubs and restaurants. And at the age of 21 he opened his own establishments. We are talking about the Maxim restaurant, a jewelry store and the Giusto club.

In 2001, another replenishment took place in the family of Andrei and Ekaterina. Their second daughter Anita was born. The famous grandfather doted on his granddaughters. He spoiled them with expensive toys and various goodies.
Divorce
Katya and Andrey have been married for almost 10 years. Over time, their feelings faded. The only thing that connected the couple was their common daughters. Catherine chose a public life. As a professional model, it was important for her to go out and make new acquaintances. Andrei tried not to appear in crowded places.
The couple parted quietly and peacefully. Katya found herself a new man - Dmitry Bulykin. It was he who has been raising Polina and Anita for several years. The girls rarely see their father. But meeting him is always looked forward to.
New love
In 2007, at one of the social events, Andrei Kobzon met a Korean Anastasia Tsoi. The girl conquered him with her exotic appearance and rich inner world. During her stay in Moscow, she managed to work as a fashion model, yoga teacher and actress.
Andrey Kobzon did everything to achieve the location of the oriental beauty. And in the end, Nastya agreed to become his soulmate. He was in no hurry to inform the famous father about the affair with a Korean woman. But when the girl became pregnant, Andrei decided to talk. The news that he will have a grandson-Korean, plunged Joseph Davydovich into shock. Just imagine: the successor of the Jewish surname Kobzon has an oriental appearance.
Soon Andrey introduced Nastya to his family. The girl made a good impression. She was kind, funny and educated. Iosif Davydovich and Ninel Mikhailovna accepted her as their own.
In January 2008, Anastasia's wife gave Andrei a long-awaited son. The boy was given a Russian name - Mikhail. Despite the presence of a common child, Kobzon was in no hurry to enter into a legal marriage with his beloved. Yes, and the girl considered the stamp in the passport a mere formality.
Bachelor again
Andrey's friends and relatives were sure that he would live with Anastasia Tsoi for many years. However, fate had its own way. At some point, the couple realized that they had become strangers to each other. Even a common child could not save the family from disintegration. In 2011, Andrei Kobzon and his Korean wife finally broke up.
The girl has maintained a good relationship with a famous family. Andrei sees his son as often as he can. He provides the boy with financial and moral assistance. Anastasia is often seen in the company of a young actor Alexei Smirnov. Perhaps he will become the new dad for Misha.
