Andrei Kobzon: biography and personal life Poor Nastya Kobzon's son and his family

This beauty needs no introduction. former model agency "Red Stars", with which she collaborated for ten years, the face of "Givenchy" and "Tiffany", model Valentina YUDASHKINA ... Today, Ekaterina POLYANSKAYA is a famous designer, the owner of the company "Feeric". Naturally, during our interview, Katya kept turning the conversation towards the latter. fashion trends and glorious modeling past. I was more interested in the period when my interlocutor was the daughter-in-law of Joseph KOBZON.

Inessa LANSKAYA

- Ekaterina, when you married Andrei Kobzon, many probably envied you?

I don't think. This is not the kind of supermarriage that could be envied.

- How did your romance begin?

We met, we got to know each other. Then I flew to Milan, and Andrey constantly called me - that's how it started. I was fascinated by him: among all the dirt that surrounded me in the 90s, he was like a pearl: very kind, open. For two years we existed in civil marriage, “they were homeless” (they didn’t want to live with their parents, but his apartment was being renovated). In general, in the beginning it was a difficult time, almost starving. They came to dine with them.

- Didn't Iosif Davydovich help you?

At that time, Andrei positioned himself in such a way that he was separate from his family. He had a very specific relationship with his dad. At first, I didn’t even feel that the Kobzons had anything to do with us. Although she knew everyone, she communicated. Thank God, then Andrei reconciled with his father.

- Joseph Kobzon did not resist the fact that his son chose a Russian girl as his wife, and not a Jewess?

Andrei himself is not a Jew in the conventional sense. He was brought up by a Russian pious woman - his nanny. She baptized him in Orthodox faith secret from everyone. There is a lot of Russian spirit in Andrey. Here is his sister Natasha - a real Jewess. It all depends on upbringing.

- So, you celebrated the wedding not according to the Jewish tradition?

Russian was a wedding. They celebrated at the Metropol. Iosif Davydovich gave me some kind of ring. I have had Nice dress from Yudashkin, and this is the only bright memory of this day, reminiscent of nightmare. About a thousand people kissed me, after which I came down with the flu for two weeks. Of course, I wanted to marry Andrei - I had a very precarious position, we converged, diverged. I wanted to strengthen the relationship.

There was no love

- Why did you return during a divorce maiden name- Polyanskaya?

I became Kobzon when I became pregnant (by that time Andrei and I had been together for five years), for the sake of the children. But living under such a well-known surname is difficult - it raises many questions.

- The reason for the divorce - is love gone?

Was she at all? We were connected by friendship, that's why we stayed together for so long - eight years. Andrei - fixated on himself, rather allowed himself to be loved than loved himself. And I was always ready to support, listen, help. But over time, I began to realize that this was not enough for me. Life passes, but there is no feeling of happiness: I was truly happy only twice - at the birth of children. At first, the thought that I was respected as a person helped to hold on. Well, when I realized that this was not so, I realized that nothing was holding us at all.

- Your mother did not ask you to wait with a divorce?

She begged me to wait for the sake of the children, she cried. Now he says it's all for the best. Andrey and I have already decided to divorce for a year. It was during that period that I realized that children should be born out of wedlock - there will be no problems later. Andrei threatened to take my daughters away from me, and I replied: “Take it. Just what are you going to do with them? You need to feed them, walk with them, put them to bed.

- Do you allow your husband to see your daughters?

After the divorce, the girls see him more often than when we lived together. He loves them very much. Five-year-old Anita went into their breed: she is white, but very curly - the spitting image of Andrei's mother. Polina, she's seven, is my copy.

- Tell me, why did you give birth in Israel? Grandfather Iosif Davydovich insisted?

This country has the best medicine in the world. Plus, children born in Israel automatically receive a second citizenship and all the benefits due. According to the documents, my husband and I recognized ourselves as Jews, took a second citizenship and went to give birth.

I won't leave with Dima

- I heard your new lover- the famous footballer of the capital "Dynamo" Dmitry Bulykin?

Yes, this is my boyfriend.

Did you start dating when you were still married?

Of course not. I do not accept cheating and until I finish one relationship, I do not start another. Dima and I met at one event and at first we were just friends: I had a family, he had a girlfriend. There was not even a hint of anything more. Then he dated my girlfriend for a while. And when I broke up with my husband, Dima and I somehow immediately grew together. As if the two halves found each other.

- Why don't you formalize the relationship?

I do not need it. Official marriage is important only in the case when one of the spouses dies, in others it does not give anything.

- A lot of young fans always revolve around Bulykin. Are you afraid of competition?

He lived with one girl for a long time before me. Right now there is no reason to be jealous. And then... I don't know. After all, Dima is six years younger than me.

How does he feel about your daughters?

He did not want to get acquainted with them for a long time, he avoided them. And when he decided that everything was serious with us, he made contact with the girls. They love him madly. My daughters now live in a dacha with my parents - I built this house myself, using my earnings. Andrew didn't want to deal with it. Well, when Dima and I finish the renovation in the apartment, we will move the girls to us.

- If Bulykin is offered a contract, will you go abroad with him?

He was going to leave two years ago, but in the end he preferred a contract in Russia. Now I understand that because of me. As a result, in this moment him big problems. If he decides to leave, I will visit him. But my life and my children's is connected with Russia.

- There is a luxurious Hummer at your entrance. Your car?

Andrew gave it to me for my birthday. Once I said that I saw the car of my dreams, and my beloved gave me a surprise. Then it turned out that with such a machine you need to have a category C, I had to take an exam. But traffic cops stop my car infrequently - there are few such models in Moscow.

REFERENCE

* Ekaterina POLYANSKAYA was born in 1973.

* Graduated from the Pedagogical College (Department of "Servicing Labor"), Pedagogical Institute (specialty "Teacher of Drawing and Drafting"). The second higher education is the Moscow Architectural Institute with a degree in Landscape Design.

* Manages Feeric, a company specializing in tailoring exclusive toilets. Ekaterina herself prefers to work on evening dresses (the cost is from 20 to 80 thousand rubles).

Katya about her career in the fashion world:

I worked as a model for about ten years. I came into this business in the early 90s quite by accident. Previously, scouts walked around Moscow, looking for girls for modeling agencies. One young man literally pursued me, approached me several times with a proposal. As a result, it became simply inconvenient for me to refuse once again and I appeared at the Alexander Borodulin Fashion House, co-owned by the famous Petya Listerman. It was almost the only office that supplied girls to the West, to good French, Italian agencies. But in Russia, as I later realized, it was a pimping enterprise.

Being the son of Joseph Kobzon is not an easy task. Andrey, as he himself admits, endures this test with difficulty.

Now there is no certainty in his life: Kobzon Jr. is divorced from his ex-wife Ekaterina Polyanskaya, while from his marriage he has two wonderful girls - Polina and Anya, 8 and 6 years old.

At the end of last year, Catherine gave birth to another daughter, Agatha, from her boyfriend, football player Dmitry Bulykin. In the family of Andrei himself, there is also a replenishment - his 23-year-old girlfriend Nastya on January 26, 2008 gave Kobzon an heir - son Misha. However, Kobzon-son is not going to marry yet, which he frankly admitted to Life.

Father

When did you really realize who your father is?

- I was three years old, and I committed some small offense in kindergarten. As I remember now, it was in the kitchen: dad called me and calmly explained that any of my actions is associated with his last name. And Kobzon is no longer just a surname, but, using modern slang, the brand he created. And I have no right to dishonor him, because I did nothing to make our surname famous. All these merits belong to him. Basically, he was right! And at the age of three, I began to think that my surname was not simple.

- I realized that you had a life with your father difficult relationship?

“Dad is a complex person. His life is also very difficult: he had to survive and fight for his principles, for his Jewish surname. This was reflected in his character. It is very difficult to find an approach to it. In addition, he has a heavy schedule: he sleeps very little, gets up early, goes to the Duma, then sits down to work.

Iosif Davydovich became a father late - at the age of 37, so he was especially happy about the long-awaited first-born

You seem to respect him. So what's wrong with you then?

- I respect him very much. We have a discrepancy only in relation to life. If he has an attitude - to live life and die at work, then I have an attitude that work is needed in order to live. The first time we had a big fight was when I was 17: I had transitional age and I wanted to prove something. BUT last story happened last year: he and I had different views on my business. It seemed to him that I was making some serious mistake. And I didn't want to listen to him, because I'm not afraid of anything. As a result, for some time we stopped talking.

Are you helping him now?

- The fact is that dad, as a deputy, has no right to do business. Accordingly, I am engaged in business and officially help him in some matters.

Andrey Kobzon grew up as a hooligan and rowdy, neither his parents nor Cook's nanny could cope with his unpredictable character

- Why does Joseph Davydovich need deputy activity?

– I don’t know why others need it, but dad ... He has long been living not on the scale of his life, but on the scale of the country.

Jealousy

Did you become independent early?

- Quite early. My father spent about 8 months a year on tour, and my mother, in order not to lose him, went with him. My sister Natasha and I stayed with our grandmother or with the nanny, whom we loved very much and called Koka. But the nanny was old, and I was energetic, so I spent all my childhood on the street. I was a bully, I fought all the time.

- Admit it, did mom really have reason to worry?

- She thought so. The father is a public figure...

A happy family in the collection: Joseph and Nelly Kobzon, daughter Natasha, son Andrey and mother-in-law Polina Moiseevna

- ... and, like any famous man, he could not resist the temptations?

“I don't think I could. In general, it seems to me that we, men, often think in the wrong place.

Let's discuss another "forbidden" topic. Everyone knows that Iosif Davydovich wears a wig...

- For dad, this is the reason the most terrible complex! We do not discuss this topic even at home. For us, all his relatives and friends, dad's worries about hair are not at all clear. There I am 33 years old, I am bald and nothing, I like it. Although, maybe thanks to his dad's wig, he still has so many fans: they are used to seeing him that way.

Music

- My parents predicted a diplomatic career for me and sent me to study at English school. I studied there for three days. And then Vladimir Spivakov came to our house and spoke rather harshly with his father: “What are you doing? You're ruining a child's talents! He himself became a musician, but you don’t allow him. ” And, although dad did not see any special talents in me, after that he brought me to the school at Gnesinka. Before that, he asked what I want to play. I replied that only on drums. He laughed it off: “Well, at least you don’t want to become a brass player!” - after all, in the musical world they joke about them, they say, they blow their brains out and do not differ in a special mind. I remember very well the day when my father and I first came to Gnesinka. The director of the school personally examined me, as I was late for the general enrollment. We sat down at the piano - when he played me tunes, I did not look, and then I picked up the notes - and quickly enough. Dad stood and watched - for him it was a kind of revelation.

From the marriage with Ekaterina Polyanskaya, Andrei Kobzon left two beautiful daughters Anya and Polina

- Wait, was it an installation that there simply couldn’t be a second Kobzon?

- It is difficult to be the second Kobzon in a family of musicians. This is objective. And it's stupid for me to compete with Joseph Kobzon. In addition, the genre in which I would like to sing does not imply a voice like that of my father. For example, I like the way Sting sings! But imagine: I will perform like him, and people will immediately say: “He has no voice. And it’s also called Kobzon!” Everyone will compare me with my dad, but this comparison is unpleasant for me. Or rather, in my youth, my psyche would not have endured this. Now I don’t care who says what, but then I had a lot of complexes ... By the way, I had serious conflicts with my father because of the music!

- Tell me, what side did your mother take in conflicts?

She was in a neutral position. Mom loves me very much, she always stands up for me, but for her, dad's opinion is always more important. That's why she told me: "The drummer is the fifth spoke in the chariot." But I performed with Volodya Presnyakov, “ moral code"," Resurrection "...

Wife

I started doing business because I fell in love with beautiful girl who later became my wife. I was 19 years old. I was unpretentious - the same rock and roll, and she was a model. And although Katya comes from a modest family, I looked at her and understood that she was worthy. luxurious life... At that time, dad was already engaged in serious matters. He himself and all his friends dragged me into business almost by the ears. But at first I didn’t want to, I said: “You don’t understand anything, you have never been on stage! The joy of receiving money can never be compared with the joy received on stage! But then I slowly started earning money... At the age of 21, I opened the Maxim restaurant, the Zili clothing store, the Giusto club and one jewelry store.

Did dad help?

- Helped negotiate. I tried not to take money. He just lobbied for my projects.

- Did your parents interfere in your family life?

- Intervened. Before the appearance of children, they tortured me with questions why children do not appear. After their birth some other problems. Mom interfered to a lesser extent, and dad very much, and I still remember it with horror. He taught us all the time, saying that we live wrong, that we need to do everything differently.

- Nevertheless, your parents maintained a relationship with Katya.

- Exceptionally diplomatic. For our children. And Katya and I, in spite of everything, kept a very good relationship. In the end, we lived with her for 10 years and we have two wonderful daughters.

- Why did you break up?

- First of all, because I chose a non-public life for myself and did not want my wife to choose a different lifestyle. She was a model, then she graduated from Moscow Architectural Institute with a degree landscape design. I really liked it, I told her: "Make landscapes, be my wife, live my life, be my soul mate." She said, "I want to be a fashion designer." I met Denis Simachev and began to help him, but I didn’t want Katya in principle. She was very offended by this and, probably, still cannot forgive me for this.

- Are you not jealous that your daughters are being raised by another man?

- You see, they are girls, so there is no jealousy. Katya has Dima Bulykin - normal, honest man I know he won't do anything to them. They love him, he is also very kind to them.

Bride

- Tell me about Nastya ...

We have been dating her for four years now. She is 10 years younger than me. For some time she was a fashion model, then a yoga teacher, acted in films. And now Nastya maternity leave.

- Your son Misha ... This is an unplanned child, isn't it?

- Yes! Planning for kids is weird. Of course, Nastya was not quite ready for this. But it happened.

– Were you ready?

- I'm always ready! Me, what? I love children! Very good boy. I didn't want a girl. Firstly, there are already enough girls in our family, and secondly, I am soon 34 years old, I want an heir.

- It turns out that the only successor to the name Kobzon is a Korean!

– Aha! Kobzon is oblique! It was from this position that my parents reacted to Nastya's pregnancy somewhat unexpectedly. They were shocked, did not understand how to relate to this. Dad immediately began to ask: “Will you marry her ?!” And I'm not going yet.

The fact that the spouses lived in happy marriage almost 40 years, of course, the merit of his wife Nelli Mikhailovna

- But are you ready for a new family life? Have you been walking?

“I don’t know a single normal man who would walk up. Either he is already old, or he is m ... k. I continue to like other women. But I think so: it doesn’t matter in whose hands the male genitals were, the main thing is how a man treats his family. So I'm ready for a serious relationship.

Iosif Kobzon cannot come to terms with the choice of his son - after the divorce, he got himself new girlfriend without consulting the parents.

But the heart of the great artist will soon soften: Andrei's bride is pregnant and ready to make Kobzon Jr. happy with her son. Ultrasound has already revealed the sex of the baby. And since Joseph Davydovich has only granddaughters (five girls!), He will be happy. And he will probably forget about the disagreements with his son.

On the anniversary concert Joseph Kobzon in the Kremlin all famous family was in the collection. Next to the singer shone his wife Nelli Mikhailovna. His mother-in-law Polina Moiseevna, daughter Natalya and her husband Yuri Rappoport came to congratulate the birthday man, ex-daughter-in-law Ekaterina Polyanskaya, as well as granddaughters - Idel, Michel, Arnella, Anya and Polina.

In January, Andrei's girlfriend will give him an heir

Arrived at the celebration and the son of Joseph Davydovich Andrey with his bride Nastya. The guests of the hero of the day immediately whispered, and there was something! The girl was pregnant and did not hide it. When asked what he had prepared as a gift for dad, Kobzon Jr. replied: “I presented my father with news of my future grandson!”

Nastya

Andrei's parents painfully, to tears, experienced his divorce, they could not come to terms with the fact that their beloved daughter-in-law Ekaterina and The only son broke up. And the new girlfriend of their son Nastya did not look to them.

Andrey and Nastya left the celebration without saying goodbye to the hero of the day

The ex-wife Ekaterina, who gave birth to two granddaughters to Joseph Davydovich, is still accepted in the family as if they were her own daughter.

And when Andrei presented his parents new girl their patience has run out. The father made it clear that he did not approve of the choice of his son.

“I hid Nastya for a long time,” Kobzon Jr. admitted to “Life”. - Our family is very difficult situation: I am divorced, I have two children from my first marriage, I am expecting a child again, but I have not been married so far. So far, I can say one thing about my personal life: the baby will be born in January and we will call him Mikhail.

The women of Kobzon Jr. were in a position at the same time: and the current girlfriend Nastya ...

A step towards reconciliation was the appearance of Nastya at the anniversary of Joseph Davydovich. During the concert, it was noticeable that the singer's inner circle was looking at Andrei's girlfriend with interest. Nastya was embarrassed and clung to her fiancé, as if looking for protection. However, Andrei was tense and cold. He came here to make peace with his father, but left without even saying goodbye to the hero of the day!

Split

“Parents should be glad that their son is well,” Andrey is experiencing discord with his father. - And no one should be embarrassed that my Nastya is Korean. After all, we do not have an Orthodox Jewish family: we eat pork, moreover, I am baptized!

And ex-wife Ekaterina

Recall that Andrei Kobzon and Ekaterina Polyanskaya divorced three years ago. At the same time, a split occurred between the master and Andrei, as a result of which they did not communicate for about a year and a half.

Kobzon's wife suffered the most because of these scandals. It was for her sake that Kobzon Sr. agreed to make peace with his son. Agreed, but did not forgive ...

Despite all efforts, the girl fails to win the favor of the future mother-in-law

Iosif Davydovich could not come to terms with the fact that Andrei did not get back together with his ex-wife. However, Catherine did not suffer from loneliness for a long time. Being a fashion model, she easily arranged her life. Ex-wife Kobzon Jr. is also expecting a child, whose father will be footballer Dmitry Bulykin.

At one time, the only heir to the legendary family married a pretty Korean woman. However hasty, but, full of passion, even the birth of a couple's first child did not save the marriage.
As it became known, Anastasia Tsoi and Andrei Kobzon divorced three years ago.

Andrey Kobzon and Anastasia have been married for a little over three years
With his chosen one - actress and poetess Anastasia Tsoi - Andrei Kobzon met in 2007, and introduced his beloved to his parents only a year later, when the girl was on recent months pregnancy. As the singer's son later admitted, he was afraid of his father's reaction. In 2008, the newlyweds had a boy, Mikhail.


In 2008, the oriental beauty gave Joseph Kobzon a grandson
The people's artist himself rarely, but nevertheless admitted that he does not have a soul in a charming daughter-in-law. And in 2011, Anastasia and Andrei unexpectedly divorced. The divorce proceedings went as quietly as the wedding. In the same year when family life Oriental beauty and heir to the famous family cracked, the girl met the young actor Alexei Smirnov. The student of VGIK, like the aspiring actress herself, was among the hosts of the international film festival of debuts "Spirit of Fire", where they were invited by the famous film director Sergei Solovyov.


After the divorce, Anastasia found new happiness in the arms young actor Alexey Smirnov
Anastasia and Alexei still prefer not to advertise their relationship, only occasionally forgetting about the close attention of the public. So, during one of the parties, heated up by dancing and wine, the former daughter-in-law of Joseph Davydovich forgot about the conspiracy for a while and dissolved in the arms of a new lover.
AT exclusive interview Anastasia commented on her divorce and admitted that she had kept ex-husband good relationship with his family. According to the girl, their 7-year-old son does not even suspect that his parents are divorced.
- My son is my love! Anastasia admits. - I try to devote every free minute to him, which is why I don’t study at GITIS at full strength. With the father of the child, we have preserved great relationship. And thanks to the fact that he is simply wonderful, noble, very good man and because we have a child. He lives in the country, and my former spouse We mostly live in the city. But as soon as there is an opportunity, we go to him and spend the weekend together, we also get together on children's holidays, so he does not even realize that, in principle, something is wrong.
When asked if her heart is free now, Tsoi smiles embarrassed, but does not admit her feelings for Smirnov. “My heart is free,” Anastasia cuts short, continuing her answer with verses of her own composition.


In 2011, the film director Sergei Solovyov introduced the actress to the new chosen one.








We know a lot about the life of celebrities, we are interested in almost everything: their wives or husbands, houses, cars, bills, children. We will tell you about the latter in this material.

Everyone knows the name of this man, but what else do we know? We are talking about the son of one of the most famous singers Rossiy- about the son of Joseph Kobzon, Andrey.

Andrei Kobzon is the eldest child in the family People's Artist, and since he was born at a time when his father's career was in full swing, his parent paid little attention to him. Iosif Davydovich remembered that his son needed to be dealt with when he was already fully formed as a person and was taking his first, but very confident steps in his career. The father began to stick his nose not only in work, but also in his personal life, which greatly depressed Andrei and led to quarrels between relatives.

Andrei was born a talented boy, with early childhood he went to music school. This helped him decide on a profession in life - Kobzon Jr. became a musician. It’s hard to believe, but the guy didn’t have any cronyism when trying to get into this or that group. For some time, Andrei played drums in one of the most popular Russian bands, Sunday.

His then colleagues noted that Kobzon Jr. had perfect hearing, they said that the guy was incredibly able-bodied and talented. A little later, Andrei continued his musical career as part of another popular group - "Moral Code".

The singer's son also tried himself in business - in the 90s he opened the Giusto club, which soon became one of the most popular hangouts for the Moscow beau monde. He also owns a restaurant and even a jewelry store.

Andrei Kobzon has always been enviable groom, but he was never a womanizer - he took relationships very seriously. His first wife was Ekaterina Polyanskaya, for whom the guy grew up very quickly and went into business. The couple lived in marriage for almost 10 years, they had two daughters - elder Polina and the younger Anita. Over time, disagreements began in the family and the couple decided to leave.

After some time in the life of Andrei appeared new love- Korean Anastasia Tsoi. Like her first wife, she also worked as a model. Feelings between young people flared up very quickly and they almost immediately began to live together. In 2008, a boy was born, who was named Michael. Andrei's parents were very worried that their grandson would have a slightly specific appearance, but they did not begin to love him less because of this.

It would seem that this time the union of Kobzon Jr. will last for the rest of his life, but even with this woman the marriage ended very quickly.

Now Andrei is again in the ranks of the most enviable bachelors in Russia. Unlike his father, our hero tries to devote more time to his children. He also actively develops his business - on this moment he is the owner of the Zhiguli pub and the most luxurious restaurant " silver Age", and is also engaged in real estate business.
