The name of the soloist of the Vintage group is Anna Pletneva. In modern Russian show business, she is one of the most sexy, liberated and charming women. Despite her age, and the singer is already 38 years old, she looks like a maximum of 25.
Childhood and youth
Little Anya was born in Moscow. A joyful event occurred on August 21, 1977. From childhood, the girl actively demonstrated her vocal abilities, so her parents sent her to a school with an in-depth study of musical and choreographic skills. At the same time, the baby danced in the Ostankino ballet. The future soloist of the Vintage group received her higher education at the Maimonides State Classical Academy: she became a specialist in pop-jazz singing.
Young Anya was head over heels in love with the popular Russian singer Vladimir Presnyakov Jr. Being his avid fan, she never missed a single concert.performer. At one of these shows, Pletneva's brother got her an idol's autograph: the girl hid a piece of paper under her pillow and slept with it for many years until it crumbled into small pieces. Falling asleep, Anya imagined how she would grow up and sing a duet with Presnyakov. The dream came true many years later: during the joint tour, the performers sang “Zurbagan” together.
Lyceum
The creative biography of the soloist of the Vintage group begins with this project. She came to the Lyceum at a young age to the vacant seat of the dismissed Lena Perova. To get into the famous and popular group of the late 90s, she went through a cruel and strict competitive selection. 80 girls applied for the coveted place, each of which had a good voice and good looks. But Anna was the best.
"Lyceum" girl gave 8 years of her life. Her career here lasted from 1997 to 2005. During this time, she showed herself as a true fan of her work: she always went on stage, even if she felt bad and cats scratched her soul. With her perseverance and diligence, the girl surprised everyone during pregnancy. Being in an interesting position, she sang until the last day, covering her stomach with a guitar. "Lyceum" became for Anya a kind of school of life, here she developed her singing talents, learned to be independent, decisive and purposeful.
Transition to Vintage
After the "Lyceum" Pletneva went on an independent voyage. She founded the author's project "Coffee with rain" while inHe is both a producer and a main performer. The first single was called "Nine and a half weeks", it was written for the girl by a longtime friend Alexei Romanov, author and composer, former soloist of the famous Omega group. It was he who pushed Anya to the conclusion that "Coffee" is just a transitional stage, and you need to think about creating something grandiose and innovative. This is how the Vintage group was formed, which, in addition to Pletneva and Romanov, included the dancer Miya.
In 2007, the first album called "Criminal Love" was released. He just blew up the audience. People and colleagues on the stage drew attention to a talented woman who devoted herself entirely to her beloved work. The soloist of the Vintage group not only sang well, she attracted the attention of the public with her slightly impudent behavior. In 2008, together with Elena Korikova, she presented the scandalous clip "Bad Girl", a little later she shocked with lesbian motives in the song "Eva, I loved you", dedicated to the singer Eva Polnaya. After that, the soloist of the Vintage group finally became a scandalous girl for the public.
First marriage
While still a member of the Lyceum group, Pletneva became pregnant and got married. For a long time, a cute curly-haired girl tirelessly traveled throughout the CIS and participated in numerous concerts. It should be noted that the 23-year-old singer, as soon as they noticed her rounded tummy, immediately set a condition: either a family or a stage. It is clear that a woman chose personal happiness, sacrificing a brilliant career anda resounding success.
Despite all the efforts of Anya, her husband left her. It turned out that he was not ready for the birth of a baby. In his heart, this adult man remained a small child, requiring constant care, not wanting to shoulder responsibility. The future performer (Vintage group) got into a difficult life situation. The soloist, whose personal life did not work out, had a hard time going through a divorce. She was brought out of depression by her little daughter, whom she named Barbara. Taking care of the girl, the singer gradually accumulated strength to again conquer not only the stage, but also men's hearts.
Second marriage
After breaking up with her first husband, Anya tried her best to find personal happiness. Paradoxically, she was destined to meet her fate when she least expected it. Having fun with friends in one of the nightclubs, the singer met a man there. He himself approached the girl and asked for her phone number. Anna never took such acquaintances seriously, so she deliberately gave the wrong number. She forgot this meeting after a few minutes, continuing to dance and have fun. Businessman Kirill Syrov, and that was the name of the man, could not find the girl, so he married another woman who gave birth to a baby. The relationship did not work out, so three years later he filed for divorce. At this time, he again met Anya, but she again ignored him.
The next meeting will take place in 10 years. Pletneva met Syrov on the plane, which was on its way toDnepropetrovsk. And then a relationship began - in the sky at an altitude of a thousand kilometers. The couple could not decide to live together for a long time, fearing to hurt little Barbara. Nevertheless, after some time, the businessman and soloist of the Vintage group legalized their relationship. The children born from this marriage are daughter Maria and son Kirill.
Always fit
The soloist of the group carefully monitors her appearance. "Vintage" can boast of a slender, beautiful and young performer. With a height of 152 cm, Anya weighs 47 kilograms. Having become a mother three times, she continues to shine in the bright spotlight, causing envy among her colleagues. Each time after childbirth, the woman quickly returned to her former shape. Pletneva says that constant vocal and dancing lessons help her stay thin. The girl does not follow any special diets, but only tries to lead an active lifestyle.
Besides singing and choreography, Anna loves to ski, so she tries to spend her holidays in the mountains. Here she fearlessly descends from the peaks, having fun and maintaining harmony. And Pletneva is well aware of the numerous techniques of karate - she is also actively engaged in this martial art. The woman says that moving on stage also helps her lose weight. In just one concert, she loses about two kilograms.
Style
We all remember the girls from the Lyceum group. Their outfits were casual: plaid shirts, jeans, sneakers. Sometimes they appeared in rather revealing costumes, but usually the clothes of the participants were unsightly andboring. Anya from this trinity has always been distinguished by her desire to experiment with style. Therefore, after leaving the team, the soloist of the group developed her own fashion: "Vintage" began to conquer the heights of show business not only with new hits, but also with bold outfits. Once the singer appeared wearing Mickey Mouse ears and a dress from glossy magazines, the other time she surprised with a transparent dress made of chains and without lining.
Besides, everyone knows the girl's love for accessories. She believes that these details can transform even the most nondescript dress. Her personal collection contains a thousand straps of different lengths and widths, styles and colors. Friends, knowing about this passion, one day gave her a gothic necklace and black metal earrings. Anya was delighted, because such jewelry will go perfectly with both an evening dress and everyday attire.
