Glucose (singer)

Glucose (Gluc'oZa). Real name - Natalya Ilyinichna Chistyakova-Ionova. She was born on June 7, 1986 in Moscow. Russian singer, songwriter, film and voice actress, TV presenter.

In some sources, Syzran is called the birthplace of the singer, but according to the singer herself, this is not true. The myth of Syzran was part of Gluk'oZa's PR campaign and the legend of the appearance of a new artist on the music market.

Father - Ilya Efimovich Ionov.

Mother - Tatyana Mikhailovna Ionova.

In some interviews, Natalya claimed that they were both programmers by profession, in others - that her father was a design engineer, and her mother was a graduate of the State Technical University with a specialization in salesman-controller-cashier.

She has an older sister, Alexandra Sidorova, who is a pastry chef.

Grandmother - Lydia Mikhailovna. Great-great-grandfather - craftsman Kirill Afanasyevich Ionov.

Natalya Ionova in childhood

She says about herself that she "very changeable by nature". As a child, she imagined herself as a teacher, then a doctor: "I always wanted the best and different". “And my sister and I, when we played something, always said:“ Here we have a grandfather in America, he will die of old age and leave us his inheritance. ”I always lived with the feeling that I should achieve something in this life. And, first of all, I always relied on myself, realizing that my parents would not be able to help me "- said the singer.

In 1993, at the age of seven, she entered a music school in the piano class, and left at eight. As a child, she attended many school circles, from chess to ballet. Natalya entered the secondary Moscow school No. 308, where she studied until the 9th grade.

In 2001, she moved to the Moscow evening school No. 17 for the daytime department, where she graduated from the 10th and 11th grades.

At the age of 11, Natalya auditioned for participation in the children's TV magazine "Yeralash" on Channel One. The following years, Natalya participated in several series of the TV magazine, including "Toadstools" in 1997.

Yeralash - Toadstools

In 1999, she starred in the film Princess War, which was released 14 years later in 2013.

In 2002, Natalya participated in the extras of the clip "Childhood" by Yuri Shatunov.

Back in 2001, Natalia recorded her first single "Suga", which together with the family published on the Internet.

On the set of the film "Triumph" Natalia met the producer Maxim Fadeev, who wrote the music for this film and organized the Gluk'OZA group, where Ionova became a soloist. “There I met a daring, impudent, drunken girl. She vomited from the balcony of the lower balcony of the director", - talked about meeting the future star Max Fadeev.

According to Fadeev, he "pulled out" Natasha at the moment when she started sniffing glue and drinking port wine. The singer herself does not hide the truth about her turbulent youth. So that Gluk'oZa would not suddenly break loose and go into all serious trouble, Fadeev took a cunning move: he hired a female FSB officer as an administrator, who was constantly next to the violent artist.

On Christmas Eve from 2001 to 2002, in the Elf production center, which deals with the administrative affairs of Maxim Fadeev, a disc appeared on which the marker was written: Gluck ':za "Shuga". The song hit the air of several metropolitan radio stations, but in Moscow no one paid attention to the new song. Meanwhile, "Suga" entered the "top ten" of the Kiev "Our Radio", where no one even knew the name of the project. Belatedly, Moscow labels began to look for Glukoza to offer a contract. The most agile of the capital's labels turned out to be Monolith Records, the company's managers found out that the project was directly related to Maxim Fadeev. In March 2002, a contract was signed with the label.

“I hate” is the debut video of Glucose, followed by a whole animated series.

Personal life of Natalia Chistyakova-Ionova:

As Natalya said, she always liked men who are older than her. "When I was 16, I dated a 24-year-old. At 18, my boyfriend was 30" she said.

She met her future husband, Alexander Chistyakov (co-owner of the Ruspetro oil company, former top manager of JSC FGC UES), when she was 19 and he was 33 (Chistyakov was born on January 25, 1973).

“We met Sasha on the plane when we flew to Chechnya. And at first I mistakenly took his sofa (laughs). I was 19 years old then, and it was the very first concert in the Chechen Republic after the war. After the wedding, Sasha told me, that he liked me, even when he first saw me on TV, and it was after that that he decided to invite me to participate in a Chechen concert. And at first he wanted to call Borya Moiseev. Therefore, now I'm making fun of him, they say, if he had not me then chose, I would be married to Bor. Then in Chechnya we went on excursions together, and upon returning to Moscow we began to correspond by SMS. And after a month and a half I moved to his country house "- said Natalya.

She also invited Alexander to marry: “I myself said to Sasha: “Take me as your wife, you won’t find it better.” He didn’t expect such impudence, and in the morning we all forgot. But a week later, my future husband officially proposed to me..

Before that, Alexander had a common-law wife, from whom he has a son.

On June 17, 2006, the couple got married. May 8, 2007 in Spain, Natalia gave birth to a daughter, Lydia. September 8, 2011 (ibid.) gave birth to a daughter, Vera.

The singer's husband Alexander Chistyakov was involved in a scandal with the money he owed to Elena Baturina, the wife of ex-mayor of Moscow Yuri Luzhkov. Inteco Beteiligungs, controlled by Baturina, demanded about 100 million euros from Chistyakov.

In 2007, Alexander Chistyakov approached Elena Baturina with a proposal to take part in a development project in the north of Morocco for the construction of commercial and residential real estate with an area of ​​more than 2 million square meters. m. It was about the construction of a large recreational complex, which was supposed to enter the hotel empire of Baturina, which at that time had hotels in Russia, Austria and the Czech Republic, and is now replenished with a hotel in Ireland.

In 2008, Baturina entered into an agreement with Chistyakov, after which she provided financing for the project in the form of loans to his company Sylmord Trade Inc. As the court later found out, the project was not implemented, and Chistyakov did not return the money received.

In January 2013, the court ruled in favor of Inteco Beteiligungs, obliging Chistyakov's company to return the funds he received along with interest. Moreover, the court ordered Sylmord to pay the costs of the Baturina structure for lawyers in this case. Chistyakov's side twice unsuccessfully tried to challenge the decision.

Where does glucose live

The Ionov-Chistyakov family has a large amount of real estate, both abroad and in Russia: apartments in the capital, St. Petersburg and a house in the Moscow region.

Apartment in St. Petersburg

The situation in St. Petersburg was completely thought out by Alexander, the wife only expressed special wishes, and the husband and the designer were already involved in everything else. Actually, there were only two wishes: a transparent dressing room and a separate bathroom.

Living space of 213 sq. meters is located in a historic building.

The kitchen is made in monochrome style and is combined with a spacious dining room. The set was brought from England, and in the dining room, above the dining table and velor chairs, there is an original crystal chandelier, presented for the wedding.

A glazed balcony adjoins the dining area - one of Natalia's favorite places. It's nice to drink coffee with a croissant in the morning and admire the golden spire of the Engineer's Castle. Large curtains hang on the windows - this is also one of GlukoZa's whims.

The walls and floor of the bathroom are framed with black marble and mosaics. By removing the partition between the master and guest bedrooms, the architects managed to place a second bathroom with a sauna, which Glukoza wanted.

In the guest room, stylized in the Chinese style, next to the entrance stands a mirror striking in its beauty and size, framed in a carved gilded frame.

The soft living room adjoins the study, at the intersection there is a sculpture of a samurai, the work of Dashi Namdakov, beloved master V.V. Putin.

The guest bedroom looks very warm and calm.

The second bedroom is sunnier due to the yellow walls.

Apartment in Moscow

The living space is located on the twenty-third floor in the famous "House on the Embankment" (Serafimovich St.). Rooms: entrance hall, kitchen-dining room, living room and bedroom.

The overall design is thought out in white-gray-black tones with red accents. Brick walls are painted with plaster.

For a change, there are unusual elements in the interior: a huge scarab or a magnificent aquarium in the living room.

The kitchen is also done in black and white with lots of cabinets. In the dining room, the accent is made on chairs in red tones.

In the bedroom, along with black and light, there is a red accent in the bedside tables and chest of drawers on the entire wall.

The bathroom is completely decorated in black design with marble.

The family practically does not use the capital's living space, now grandmother Ionova lives there.

According to CIAN, prices for three-room housing on Serafimovicha Street, 2 start from 40 million rubles.

House in the suburbs

The family lives permanently in a country cottage in one of the elite settlements of the Moscow region. The situation here is completely different from urban housing. There are many colors, bright and warm shades, but the beloved red is still present in these interiors.

In addition to Glucose, her husband, two joint children and the eldest son Alexander from his first marriage, the owners' favorite pets live here.

Since two children live together, their playroom is spacious and bright with many interesting toys, games and books.

Like most modern musical figures, the hosts have a small white grand piano installed in the front door. On it, in addition to the hostess herself, her children also like to play music.

The large original wood-burning fireplace with granite cladding attracts attention.

The kitchen is implemented in a warm milky white design. The entrance is framed by floor-to-ceiling white columns, and air curtains hang from the windows.

The love story of the singer Natalya Ionova, better known under the pseudonym Glukoza, and the successful entrepreneur Alexander Chistyakov is a story about how a tomboy girl turned into a real lady, and a stern commander-manager became a gentle family man.

Gluk'oZa Nostra

Everyone remembers Natasha as a teenager in huge boots, accompanied by a Doberman. A little more than ten years ago, she was exactly like that: impudent, wayward, but at the same time touchingly defenseless. The meeting with producer Max Fadeev was a real lucky ticket, thanks to which the yard girl became a star on an all-Russian scale. And she was only 16 at the time!

After marriage, from a tomboy girl, Glucose turned into a real lady.

The surging popularity and constant employment did not reflect very well on the singer's personal life: parting with her first love was replaced by several minor novels, and then completely led to disappointment, and then Natalya decided for herself that she needed a person who would be smarter, stronger, more interesting than herself.

It was such a person that she met on the plane, going to a concert in Chechnya. The flight was early in the morning, so, having reached the seat, Natasha immediately fell asleep. But it turned out that the seat was intended for the VIP person Chistyakov, who kindly gave it to the tired singer. And so it happened that Natalia and Alexander, having met, spent the whole day before the concert and the way back to Moscow. She played an important role in this amorous story, which has long-standing friendly relations with Glucose. It was she then on the plane and introduced the future spouses to each other.

Little mistress of a big house

A pleasant acquaintance was followed by a correspondence romance with infrequent dates, since the singer was on the road almost all the time. An important moment in the development of relations was the meeting in Paris. It is not for nothing that this city is called the city of lovers: having returned to Moscow, Natasha and Sasha no longer parted. At first, Natalya, with a small suitcase with the most necessary things, had to shuttle between her apartment in Moscow and Alexander's country house. But soon Chistyakov invited his beloved to move in with him in order to save her from constant moving.

The relationship between Alexander and Natalia began after they met on the plane

From that moment, the mutual beneficial influence of the couple on each other began. Previously, in the best traditions of the "neighbor girl", Natalya preferred sneakers, was not at all interested in fashion brands and frankly missed women's conversations in Alexander's circle of acquaintances. She recalls only one conversation with a laugh: "One lady says to another:" And I keep my fur coat in the refrigerator. I was surprised to myself: I wonder how she keeps it among jars and pots? In the package? Maybe put it in the freezer? Then I asked Sasha, he laughed: “Fool, there are special refrigerators for fur coats.” Alexander had to teach his chosen one a lot: follow the rules of etiquette, wear elegant dresses, live in the solitude of a country house, refusing noisy city parties. But Sasha, in turn, became infected with Natasha's gaiety and frivolity, he began to smile more often and hide his former severity.

Glucose herself made her beloved an offer

According to the official version, the marriage proposal came from Natalia, and just because of her naive spontaneity. “Marry me, you won’t find better anyway,” she burst out in the company of friends. And two weeks later, Sasha presented a ring with the words "I agree." And although the lovers were from families of different social status, this did not become an obstacle to marriage: Natasha was warmly received in the new family, and Sasha only aroused fears in the singer's mother for the first time. The wedding festivities stretched over three days. The bride had three different outfits, three locations and hundreds of guests.

About happiness and the meaning of life

This year marks the ninth wedding anniversary. Today Natalia is a serious married lady, a real mistress of a large house and a mother of two children. For the eldest - Chistyakov's son from his first marriage - Natasha became more of an older friend than a stepmother.

The parents bring up their daughters Lydia and Vera strictly, although they do not deny them anything, pamper them and do everything that can please the girls. Strictness is manifested only in exactingness. In her microblogs, Natalya often publishes photographs of girls, accompanying them with touching captions: “It is very important to have people for whom you are ready for anything, they fill your life with meaning.”

The singer was very lucky that her husband did not demand that she give up her creative life for the sake of her family. Thanks to his support, she manages to do everything: combine a busy work schedule, housekeeping, raising children, and at the same time find time for self-care and sports. By the way, they do yoga together. “Separately, we sometimes seem a little inferior, but together, turning into a single whole, we become a powerful force,” the singer commented on a photo in which she and her husband perform a complex asana.

Alexander's position obliges to be more restrained in public manifestations. But he does not miss the opportunity to confess his love to his wife on the pages of his microblogs. “A real man has a good heart, strong hands, honest eyes and an open soul. A real man does not scatter empty words, but does things! What a blessing to know that he is there and he loves me,” says Natalia. It remains only to wish that these words do not lose their relevance in a few decades.

Glucose (Natalya Chistyakova-Ionova) is a Russian pop singer. This young nugget was found and cut by producer Max Fadeev, who developed for Natalia an original animation concept with his micro-universe, which was very fond of the youth audience after the release of the debut album Glucose Nostra.

She may not have been able to surpass the success of the songs “The Bride” and “I Hate” and other compositions from her early work, but Natalya successfully tries herself in other roles: an actress, wife, mother and Instagram blogger.

Childhood and family

Natalya Ilyinichna Ionova was born in June 1986 in Moscow, in the family of Ilya Efimovich and Tatyana Mikhailovna Ionov. Regarding the type of activity of Glucose's parents, information is contradictory. In some interviews, the girl claimed that they both work in IT, in others that her father is an engineer by education, and her mother graduated from college with the profession of a cashier.


When Natasha was born, her two-year-old sister Sasha, the daughter from Tatyana Ionova's first marriage, was already growing up in the family. The parents were still very young, so they raised their daughters in a very liberal way.

The childhood of the future pop singer fell on the dashing 90s, which could not but affect the formation of her personality. Prior to this, a relatively stable financially family began to experience serious material difficulties. At some point, the parents had to rent out their apartment, and Natasha's family moved in with her paternal grandmother, Lidia Mikhailovna.


Grandmother played a big role in Natasha's upbringing - she made up for the lack of parental affection, and while her parents were at work, she helped her granddaughter with lessons that were not given to her, sometimes, when the girl did not want to go to school, shielded her in front of teachers.

Most of the time the girls were on their own. Natasha studied poorly, and her parents were well aware of this, but they never punished her. Complete trust reigned in the family, and Natasha could tell mom and dad about anything.

She attended school reluctantly, although she liked to take part in a variety of extracurricular activities. The girl attended all kinds of circles, played tennis and ballet, and even tried to master the piano, but quit after the first year of study.

Unlike the feminine older sister, Natalya grew up as a tomboy. Among her friends there were only boys, with whom she enthusiastically rushed around the yard, climbed trees, set fire to garbage cans. In one of the interviews, the singer recalled how, together with friends, she opened the windows in the apartment of a circus artist who lived on the ground floor, and his trained monkeys scattered around the yard. While the police were catching the animals, Natasha and her friends watched the show with laughter.


Everything changed when Natasha was 15 years old. She noticed that friends have ceased to be interested in the usual tricks, but instead look at the girls. She stole her mother's cosmetics and did bright makeup, imitating the popular singer Linda in those years.

First steps to glory

At the age of 11, Natasha auditioned for the children's film magazine Yeralash, selflessly standing in line with her grandmother for many hours. She was not even embarrassed by the tearful children coming out of the doors of the studio.

From early childhood, I knew that we had neither a stake nor a yard and no one would give me anything just like that. Perhaps that is why the queue for the casting has defended.

Boris Grachevsky at first was going to take her to a minor role, but during the filming he changed his mind and made the main character of the Toadstools series (1997). She later appeared in five more episodes. For the first fee of $ 200, Natasha bought a TV and warm clothes for her parents.

Release of "Yeralash" with Natasha Ionova

Already an adult and accomplished artist, Glucose admitted that at the age of 12 she first tried drugs. And the matter was not limited to the banal "weed". “There was glue, and gasoline, and mushrooms, and harder drugs - ecstasy,” the singer recalled, adding that she also used heroin several times, it was such a time. She started smoking cigarettes in high school, struggled with this habit for many years and still cannot completely give up nicotine.


At the age of 13, Ionova got a role in the drama film "War of the Princess", where young Arthur Smolyaninov and Lyanka Gryu also starred. That's just because of the conflict between the producer and the director, the picture was never completed.

At the age of 14, Natalya Ionova starred in the film "Triumph", which largely duplicated the material from the "War of the Princess". The music for the film was composed by Max Fadeev. On the set, he noticed a young actress and saw great potential in this lively, charismatic girl. Although the first impression of her was not the most pleasant: "an impudent drunk girl who threw up on the director's balcony."


Fadeev knew that working on a new artist would not be easy. Legend has it that he even hired a female administrator from among the former FSB officers to Natalya to control the young star and stop her bad habits. Natasha graduated from high school at an evening school, where she transferred not so much because of poor grades, but because of the inability to combine her studies with her career as a singer.


Fadeev sent Glukoza's first single "Shuga" to radio stations on the eve of the 2002 offensive. Due to the pre-New Year fuss, the song was left without attention, but when the track got into the rotation of a couple of stations, the world of the music business started up. No one knew who the artist with the "cartoon" voice was, but everyone wanted to find out.

Glucose - "I hate"

The traces led to Max Fadeev, who did not hide the fact that Glucose was his brainchild. But the personality and appearance of the singer were carefully hidden. Instead of Natasha's real face, viewers of music channels saw a cartoon blonde in black glasses with two ponytails.


Fadeev came up with the concept of the Glucose project before he invited Ionova. On the demo versions of the early songs, the voice of Fadeev and his wife sounded, which went through computer processing.

The similarity with the virtual group Gorillaz was noticeable, but the Glucose girl with her faithful Doberman companion and other members of the group lived in their own, original world. Each clip - "I Hate", "The Bride", "Glucose Nostra" - seemed to continue the previous one. The commercials were full of references to popular culture, for example, in "The Bride" the popular film "Kill Bill" was parodied in those years.

Glucose - Bride

The debut album "Glucose Nostra" was released in May 2003. Critics at first could not avoid comparison with the style of Gorillaz, and the singer's voice was compared with a "bad version of Zhanna Aguzarova", they also walked through the primitive musical component. But at the same time, venerable musicians praised texts unusual for the pop genre and predicted a great future for Glucose, comparable to the meteoric rise of Zemfira.


Soon after the release of the album, Glucose's appearance ceased to be a secret. Natalya Ionova took the stage in the final of the Star Factory project with the song "Bride". Glucose's second album was released in 2005 and was called "Moscow". The songs "Schweine" and "It's snowing" received a clip in the usual cartoon style, but in the videos for the songs "Oh-oh" and "Moscow" the audience saw the real Natalya Ionova.

Shortly after the release of the second album, Natalya Ionova released the single "Wedding". A month later, she got married and became pregnant, which is why she took a short creative break. Six months after giving birth, she returned to the stage. By this point, her contract with Fadeev's Monolith production center had expired. The singer understood that the conclusion of a new contract would entail endless tours, titanic work on new material. She wanted something else - to be close to her husband, to raise her daughter.


The label was sympathetic to the desire of Natalia and parted with her peacefully. It was assumed that the rights to the repertoire and the stage name would remain with Monolith, a new vocalist would be found for the Glucose project, and Natalya, if she wanted to continue her career, would start everything from scratch. However, at the end of 2007, the single "Butterflies" was released, which marked the continuation of the collaboration between Natalia Ionova and Fadeev.

Glucose - Butterflies

In 2007, the singer and producer organized a joint company "Glucose Production" and became its full partners. The result of their successful creative tandem was new hits - "Dance, Russia" and "Daughter" - tours throughout Russia and abroad, numerous awards at prestigious music festivals.

New creativity

In 2008–2009, videos for the songs “Daughter” (with mini-Glucose, obviously the singer’s daughter) and “Money” were released. The latter marked the decline of the "old" Glucose. Natalia Ionova changed her image. The daring "rocker" outfits were left behind - the singer turned into a tender, feminine blonde and became a regular at social events.


Not all fans took the change positively. When in 2011 Glukoza presented her third studio album Trans-FORMA to the audience, she faced criticism. In an interview, she emphasized that she and her work are changing, she likes to experiment with styles. Cartoon Glucose, which has been with her for ten years, will forever remain in her memory, but there will be no more cartoon clips.

Glucose ft. Leningrad - Zhu-zhu

More than eight years have passed since the release of Trans-FORM, but Natalya Ionova has not recorded her fourth studio album. Over the past years, she has released 12 singles, including duets with Artik and Asti “I only smell of you” and the Leningrad group and the rapper Zhu-zhu.

Other projects

On the wave of success, Glukoza became a frequent guest on television, in 2006 she appeared in the first season of the popular show "Stars on Ice" on Channel One, where she skated with Anton Sikharulidze.


In 2008, viewers of the STS channel were able to see her as the leading author's program "Children's Pranks".

In 2009, Glucose voiced the character of Reese Witherspoon in the cartoon "Monsters vs. Aliens", as well as the character of computer games Nancy Drew. Ionova also participated in the project "Dancing with the Stars" in 2012 on the channel "Russia".


Natasha did not forget about the cinema either - she periodically appears on screens in films of the entertainment and comedy genre, mainly in the role of herself. So, in 2017, Natasha again tried her hand at cinema, starring in Marius Weisberg's comedy "Grandmother of Easy Virtue" with Alexander Revva in the title role, and in 2019 she appeared in its sequel as a caring nurse at a nursing home.


Natalia Ionova is a volunteer of the Best Friends charity foundation, which helps people with developmental and intellectual disabilities adapt to life in modern society.

Personal life of Natalia Ionova

At the age of 17, Glucose met a young man with whom she began her first serious relationship in her life, which lasted 2 years. However, the young man turned out to be very jealous, and parting with him was a matter of decision.

The love story of Natasha Ionova and her current husband is reminiscent of a fairy tale about Cinderella. A girl from a simple family accidentally met a rich and influential businessman Alexander Chistyakov on an airplane. Exhausted by the tour, she fell asleep in his place, but the man did not wake up the young artist. It turned out that he organized a concert in Chechnya, to which Glucose flew to perform.

They returned to Moscow together and never parted again. Glukoza believes that it was love at first sight, and still remembers the day when they went to the Bi-2 concert and declared their love, kneeling in front of each other.

Alexander turned her life into a bright holiday. The St. Petersburg millionaire surrounded the girl with care and attention literally from the first meeting, so Natasha had no doubts about the seriousness of his intentions.


However, not everything was so smooth: Natalya quickly felt the difference in origin with her lover. He is a fifth-generation Petersburg intellectual with professor parents, she is a daredevil girl from a simple family, with bad habits and not at all feminine style of clothing. But does it matter when two loving hearts meet?

The couple lead a healthy lifestyle. First, Alexander Chistyakov refused meat, then Natalia followed his example. Both do yoga, and the singer often pleases Instagram followers with photos of difficult asanas performed by her.

In the house of the singer lives a dog of the Akitu Inu breed - a snow-white good-natured giant named Muftik.


Glucose now

Glucose rarely pleases fans with new creativity, but at the beginning of October 2019, congratulating Instagram subscribers on Music Day, she promised that they would hear a new song soon.

The singer devotes a lot of time to the development of Instagram: she uploads photos from everyday life, gives self-care tips, and records beauty videos.
