CSKA hockey player Ivan Telegin abandoned his common-law wife Evgenia and newborn son Mark.

The romance of the famous 29-year-old performer with the young 24-year-old hockey player Ivan Telegin began at the moment when common-law wife The athlete was eight months pregnant.

Telegin left his family for the famous artist immediately after his ex-common-law wife, 25-year-old Evgenia, returned from the maternity hospital with her newborn son.

Evgenia found out that Ivan Telegin was having an affair with the singer shortly before giving birth. Although the hockey player himself carefully hid his relationship with Pelageya from the public. More recently, in February, when his son Mark was born, his colleagues at CSKA vigorously congratulated him on his newborn.

Evgenia learned about Ivan’s infidelities from the Internet. According to the girl, her ex-lover abandoned the family as soon as she arrived from the maternity hospital with the baby.

“Mine didn’t hang out, and then he lost his temper. I just arrived from the maternity hospital, he told me that he needed to think about our relationship, and left. I saw Pelageya once, at a mutual friend’s birthday party. I was eight months pregnant. He I didn’t show her any signs of attention, just like she did to him. I’m just shocked,” she said.

According to Evgenia, the athlete explained his constant absences by being busy in training. Now the hockey player does not take part in raising the child at all and does not help his ex-wife financially.

According to rumors, Ivan and Pelageya are preparing for the wedding. The singer even flashed her ring on ring finger right hand, which may indicate an engagement.

On the recent set of the show “The Voice. Children,” Telegin and Pelageya revealed their romance to general public. On film set they appeared holding hands. And during breaks, Ivan sat down with Pelageya and they took pictures together.

Let us add that not so long ago they talked about the romance of Pelageya and participant in the show “The Voice” Dmitry Sorochenkov.

At the same time, viewers were more than once indignant at the fact that the singer biasedly assessed Dmitry’s performing skills - clearly pushing her favorite.

In turn, Sorochenkov himself publicly called his mentor " beautiful woman, which turned his heart upside down."

And Pelageya’s first marriage with Comedy Woman director Dmitry Efimovich ended in divorce after two years of marriage.

Pelageya got married again! Photos of the singer with her new husband have already spread throughout the scandalous media. Rumor has it that Pelageya took her lover, hockey player Ivan Telegin, away from the family. This is perhaps the first scandal in which the name of a celebrity appears.

Pelageya celebrates her thirtieth birthday with a cherished wedding ring on the ring finger. IN lately The singer’s personal life is surrounded by a huge amount of gossip.

The increased attention to the artist is primarily due to her new novel. Pelageya and hockey player Ivan Telegin hid their relationship for a very long time. But they couldn’t hide the photos from the wedding. This joyful event was captured by close friends of the couple invited to the celebration. Some time later, they shared photographic evidence of this joyful event on their social media pages.

Pelageya and Ivan Telegin are now husband and wife

The lovers never tire of demonstrating their tender feelings for each other, appearing together everywhere. Whether it’s a hockey match for Telegin’s team or filming a new episode of the show “The Voice,” where Pelageya acted as a coach-mentor for more than one season. Now she easily exchanges feminine concert outfits for a hockey sweater with her lover’s name on it.

Does Pelageya have children? Yes, and not alone. She can rightfully consider her children from the show “The Voice. Children". The star is especially pleased to remember the vocal Nastya Titova, with whom she sang a duet at a big Christmas concert in St. Petersburg, the persistent and hardworking Katya Bizina, who waited a whole year to perform brilliantly at her favorite talent show, and the self-confident, reckless Ranel Bogdanov. Why, the singer became a real second mother to every young talent from her team!

This attitude towards small artists is no coincidence. Pelageya herself probably remembers very well how thorny the path to song projects can be. Especially when you are still just a child. The star herself began her singing career in early childhood. The audience well remembered the young talented Siberian who sang a cover version of the Queen song on the KVN stage.

Beautiful, talented, open, sincere - this is how her fans know the star. The femme fatale, for whom a man is capable of leaving his family - in such an unusual image, the singer appeared before us quite recently.

For the sake of the singer, the man left his pregnant common-law wife Evgenia Nour. Although the “hope of Russian hockey” was not officially married to her, he considered her his soulmate. Before meeting Ivan, Evgenia was a striptease dancer. Actually, “at work”, in a club, the couple met and almost immediately began to live together.

Ex-wife of Ivan Telegin

Even the birth of the long-awaited baby, Mark, in February 2016, did not convince the hockey player to return to Evgenia. Because of this, many took up arms against the folk star: they say that Pelageya took her betrothed away from the family, leaving little son without a father! Although the singer’s representatives denied this information. They stated that the lovers began dating after the athlete decided to break up with his ex-wife.

Pelageya and Telegin: we are happy!

According to unofficial information, the artist is now in “ interesting position" This fact explains many people’s refusal to participate in the next season of the “Voice” project, as well as the sudden cancellation of her performance at the “Invasion” rock festival.

Pelageya and Dmitry Efimovich: was their marriage a mistake?

The difference of 11 years did not bother them at all: Pelageya and her first husband Dmitry Efimovich managed to experience not only joy family life, but also the bitterness of disappointment in a loved one. One of the most probable causes Divorce refers to the husband's numerous infidelities. Another version is the singer’s reluctance to have children. The demand for TV and the extremely busy touring schedule simply did not leave time for family.

Pelageya and Efimovich met thanks to KVN. Dmitry Efimovich was a member of the KVN team of Novosibirsk University, and Pelageya was a guest star of the young, ambitious team. Then no one could have imagined that years later they would meet again in Moscow, where the couple would have a whirlwind romance.

Pelageya and Dmitry Efimovich seemed happy spouses

The wedding of Pelageya and Dmitry Efimovich took place in the strictest secrecy. I still can’t find a photo from this solemn event on the Internet. The divorce of the artist and director turned out to be just as secret. The fact that the couple did not part amicably is evidenced by the fact that the celebrity immediately after the divorce again took her maiden name - Khanova.

Before becoming Pelageya’s husband, Efimovich was married to Polina Sibagatullina, better known to viewers of the TNT channel as Madame Polina from Comedy Woman. By the way, he is the director of a comedy TV show. After the divorce, neither Efimovich nor Sibagatullina commented on the failed marriage. But among the reasons for their divorce, the same reluctance of the wife to give Efimovich a long-awaited heir was mentioned.

Dmitry Efimovich’s first wife is Madame Polina from Comedy Woman

Artist for a long time lived in the world with the common name Polina. So it was until adulthood. Only after receiving her passport, the singer corrected the name Polina to the familiar one - Pelageya. By the way, the folk rock star’s group also received an identical name.

Pelageya “lights up” at a concert

The singer first appeared on stage at the age of 4 and immediately realized that music was her calling. And this talented star of the domestic stage has read only serious books since childhood. The artist mastered Rabelais’s work “Gargantua and Pantagruel” at the age of 3, and at the age of 9 she was already engrossed in Bulgakov’s novel “The Master and Margarita.”

The radical change in the singer's image - a stylish bob plus light hair color - was greeted by fans with a bang. “Finally, I woke up in a reckless, cheerful girl real woman! - they exclaimed. Photos from Instagram of the updated Pelageya were commented on by thousands of followers.

New Pelageya - new personal life

Pelageya and Bilan is a topic that haunted fans of both sides. But the stars themselves quickly dispelled the wave of rumors surrounding their possible romance. “We are just good friends,” they said in one voice.

Pelageya and Bilan: we are connected only by friendship

Pelageya also includes Dmitry Sorochenkov, a participant in the “Voice” project, among the “former” people. Viewers of the show suspected something was wrong when the singer, being Dmitry’s coach, left him from episode to episode young man. Despite the fact that in terms of his vocal abilities he was frankly inferior to other participants. Fans of “The Voice” were finally confirmed in their guesses after Sorochenkov’s words that the pretty mentor conquered him and “turned his heart over.”

Dmitry Sorochenkov, according to rumors - ex-boyfriend Pelagia

But, as you know, this office romance was fleeting. Having met the hockey player Telegin, the flighty Pelageya chose the latter. All that remains is to wish them happiness in their personal lives!

Always smiling and cheerful, Pelageya is used to keeping a respectful distance from strangers. It’s not easy to earn the trust of the girl hosting the “Voice Children” show. The owner of a beautiful voice is very shy and believes that she has no competitive spirit, so all competitions are held as the next step to achieve the desired goal.

But modesty and small stature do not prevent the singer with a gorgeous biography from remaining the most beloved performer of our time. She always looks great and this is not surprising given such parameters: Pelageya Sergeevna’s height is 163 cm and her weight is 53 kg. But just recently the girl looked different.

The lover of high-calorie Siberian cuisine weighed 7 kg more. Helped a show business star proper diet when food is consumed in small portions 5-6 times a day.

The folk diva was born on July 14, 1986 in Novosibirsk, which is considered the third city in the Russian Federation in terms of population. According to her horoscope, she is Cancer, so she is always sensitive to people and suffers from increased emotionality. I am an introvert by nature.

In an interview, the singer admits that she always starts crying when talking about her loved ones. Such amazing feature A strong and strong-willed star seems something incredible to fans. Many people mistakenly consider the name Pelagia to be a pseudonym, but it is real and is translated as “sea”.

Childhood

Pelageya Sergeevna Khanova became a world star thanks to her mother. Jazz performer Svetlana from early childhood provided her daughter with the opportunity to do exclusively what she liked. But at the same time, the girl knew that there were certain prohibitions that should not be violated.

For example, Pelageya was not allowed to watch TV programs that did not carry important information. And Soviet cartoons were encouraged because they helped my daughter develop as a person.

From the age of three, the plump girl loved to dress up in her mother’s clothes and perform independently invented performances. Polya, as they used to call her at home and at work, sang songs from the popular film “Goodbye, Mary Poppins!” and danced. Then mother Svetlana, who worked as a director at a local theater, decided to send Pelageya to ballet school.

But the girl was not accepted because excess weight. Therefore, it is very rare for an adult woman to dance. She talks with admiration about her mother, who, having used up her resources as a singer, managed to start everything from scratch, becoming not only a director of performances, but also a teacher of acting and directing.

Interesting fact! Little Polya made her first performance on stage at the age of 3 years. Mom, who organized an exhibition of her fabric paintings in the city on the Neva, included the restless singer in the program. But Pelageya, who received enthusiastic applause from art connoisseurs, got scared and burst into tears on stage. The girl still remembers this moment, considering the performance a failure.

Pelageya managed to correct the mistake three years later. Mom Svetlana was invited to the radio for an interview. The singer, who had lost her voice, was unable to sing, and the daughter decided to take advantage of the moment and show her talents. This performance in front of a large audience of listeners with the Siberian lament song “Dropped the Ring” restored the little girl’s self-confidence.

Studies

Her creative mother, who instilled in Pelageya a love of books and art, helped her become a bright and interesting person. A young intellectual at the age of 8 read Mikhail Bulgakov’s book “The Master and Margarita”, enjoying the fantastic story of the main character.

Seeing that her daughter was not inclined towards exact sciences, Svetlana Khanova allowed her to focus on humanitarian subjects. It was this attentive parental approach that created Pelagia into who she is now.

The singer admits that grades in chemistry, physics and other exact sciences were given to her simply so that she would move to the next class. But she knew literature and other subjects better than her classmates. She owes everything that Pelageya has achieved to her mother. According to the star, there was no such figure in her life as dad. And Polya’s grandmother did not live to see the birth of her granddaughter. It was in her honor that the folk music performer was named.

Start of a career

The young soloist with a strong voice appeared on stage at the age of four. And already at 8 she became a student at a specialized school at the conservatory of the city of Novosibirsk. The girl managed to get into the course without competition. She was invited by a teacher who was fascinated by her voice.

A year later, at one of the competitions, the girl was noticed by the founder of the Kalinov Most group, Dmitry Aleksandrovich Revyakin. The composer persuaded Polya to take part in the “Morning Star” show in the capital of the Russian Federation. The performance was stunning. The gifted singer received her first significant award, becoming “Best Folk Song Performer of 1996.” But the most unexpected thing was receiving a bonus of 1000 in foreign currency.

In 1997, the aspiring pop star entered into a contract with the independent music company Feelee Records and recorded his first two songs: “Kozak” and “Lyubo, brothers.” Having decided to start a career as a performer of non-standard music, the gifted girl moves to Moscow with her mother and begins a new life in the world of show business.

To become a professional in the pop field, Pelageya agreed to enter school No. 1113 with a musical and choreographic focus. She also attended classes at RAM. During her school years, the artist distinguished herself by singing in a duet with the following world stars:

rock musician Garik, founder of the “Manual Sunset” groups, P.S. "Brigade C";
leader of the Nautilus group Vyacheslav Gennadievich Butusov;
the legendary British rock band Depeche Mode, performing music in its own unique style;
Alexander Feliksovich Sklyar, founder of the Va-Bank group and organizer of the alternative music festival;
Inna Yurievna Zhelannaya is the leader of the folk group Farlanders and the soloist of the Alliance group.

A talented girl is repeatedly invited to interesting and bright projects, but they all take place during the holidays. The girl’s mother does not allow her to leave school for a long time. In 1997, the aspiring artist became a member of the KVN team of her hometown.

Working in a humorous group helped Polya open up and realize the significance of the scene in her life. But then the girl realized that KVN is not what she wants to spend time and energy on. Therefore, Pelageya left the team, maintaining warm friendly relations with its members.

In 1988, the girl spoke at the Summit Big Eight before the heads of foreign countries.

In 1999, a crisis ensued and the artist was forced to terminate her contract with the creators of alternative music, Feelee Records. Svetlana Khanova becomes her new producer. Fascinated by non-standard melodies, the daughter and mother gather a company of virtuoso musicians and become the organizers of the Pelageya group.

The first performance of the group performing folk-rock music takes place at the Central House of Artists. A crowded hall and completely sold out tickets are the first resounding success, followed by a series of performances at the cult club “Chinese pilot Zhao-Da”. The group gains its first loyal fans.

Rise, popularity

The artist admits that real touring life for her began only as a student. Living in a metropolis, Pelageya often took part in competitions and recorded her first albums. But Svetlana’s mother believed that her daughter should not be distracted from her studies.

After graduating from high school as an external student, the girl goes to receive higher education at GITIS, faculty of pop vocals. Folk music has repeatedly attracted the attention of the government. Pelageya and her team are invited to important events for the country.

And in 2001, the aspiring star received an apartment under the patronage of the government of the Russian capital. In 2003, the group's first album was released and solo songs recorded in childhood were released.

In the Pelageya team there are minor changes. Instead of two solo guitars, there is a solo and bass. Young people led by leader Pavel Deshura receive an invitation to the main square of Moscow. The unusual sound attracts the attention of new fans, and alternative music performers are awarded the title “Discovery of the Year” by the popular magazine FUZZ.

According to the press and critics, the Pelageya group has become a symbol of the revival of Russian alternative rock and roll. A strong team managed to make a breakthrough in the world of music, returning people's love for folk and folklore motifs. Every time they perform in front of an audience, members of the group give their fans an unusual fairy tale.

That is why Pelageya always attracts full houses, and tickets for her concerts are sold out several days before the start of the performance.

Personality and character

Pelageya admits that fame forced her to change and become more closed to the public. At a certain point, the girl stopped liking the idea of familiar and unfamiliar people prying into her personal life.

The artist never allows herself to make rash decisions. The girl considers every proposal from people famous in show business, weighing all the pros and cons. The talented performer doesn’t consider herself ambitious either. She cares about the opinions of her family and not strangers who know her only from press interviews.

The star loves solitude and regularly travels to Israel to devote free time meditation and take a vow of silence. Even when going on tour to other cities and countries, the artist prefers to spend time in her room and only occasionally has dinner with the team.

But despite her isolation, Polya loves to travel and always expresses emotions without hiding behind masks. She lives with her heart, and is very reasonable, but not restrained. Previously, in her youth, Pelageya was amorous and expressed her contradiction to everything.

So she became a blonde when she heard that light hair color would not suit her. But, having repainted her hair, the girl realized that she had become more feminine and soft. After all, hair color plays a role in personality development. great value. As a person with a strong emotional background, Pelageya suffers from frequent mood swings and admits that she should have been born under the sign of Libra.

A quiet wedding with family and the same divorce without a scandal in the press still caused a lot of gossip in the journalistic community. But interest in ex-husband Pelagia quickly faded away.

In 2016, Ivan Telegin and the folk diva announced their upcoming wedding, and along with this, rumors appeared that the singer had destroyed the hockey player’s family. A man in love not only divorced his wife, but also abandoned his newborn baby. Long time Pelageya continued to sing on stage and behave as if nothing had happened.

All possible options accounts are fake. In past years, the artist regularly visited the forum on the Pelagea.ru website, but now it is practically inactive.

Singer Pelageya is a completely unique performer in the genre of folk song and pop-folk. Becoming a real star Russian scene, this talented girl never tried to be “fashionable” and “relevant”. She always followed her own path, and therefore was always very close to ordinary listeners. She was a mentor in the shows “The Voice” and “The Voice. Children”, as well as the jury in KVN.

Childhood and family

Our today's heroine, Pelageya Sergeevna Khanova, was born in distant and snowy Novosibirsk, in a family that was closely connected with musical art. Pelageya’s mother, Svetlana, was once a fairly famous jazz singer. Having lost her voice after a long illness, the courageous woman did not break down and changed the musical stage to the theater stage. Throughout her subsequent career, Pelageya’s mother worked as a director and taught acting in one of the Novosibirsk theaters.

In many ways, it was the mother who had the greatest influence on her daughter’s creativity. Pelageya hardly knew her father; she was replaced by her stepfather, who not only raised her as his own daughter, but also gave her his last name - Khanova. As for the singer’s name, there is also a rather interesting story associated with it. The thing is that when registering the baby, the registry office employees mistakenly considered the rare name that her mother chose in honor of her grandmother to be a derivative of the name Polina, and therefore Pelageya spent her childhood with a “fake” name on the birth certificate. Only upon receipt of the passport was this error corrected, and even then the promising artist finally officially became Pelageya.

However, let us not focus too much on issues of genealogy. Mine creative path Pelageya started at the age of four - it was at this age that she first appeared on stage during a performance in kindergarten. That debut was successful. Fascinated by everyone's attention, the little one literally fell in love with the stage, and therefore was only glad when, at the age of 8, she was enrolled by her mother, who decided that her daughter should definitely connect her life with music, to the Novosibirsk Special Music School at the city conservatory.

However, Pelageya was talented in everything - she learned to read while still in diapers, at the age of three she mastered her first novel, “Gargantua and Pantagruel” by Rabelais, and at ten she voraciously read “The Master and Margarita.”

Vivid performances on the stage of the Novosibirsk Conservatory attracted the attention of the famous musician Dmitry Revyakin (leader of the Kalinov Most group) to Pelageya. Having heard the performance of a 9-year-old girl, the artist invited her to try her luck on the vocal project “Morning Star”. As a result, the little girl became a laureate of a prestigious competition and holder of the title “Best folk song performer in Russia in 1996.”

After this there was a series of new achievements. The young artist successfully performed at the “Young Talents of Siberia” and “New Names of the Planet” competitions, and also appeared on the KVN stage (as part of the Novosibirsk State University team) and sang for three presidents at once at the trilateral summit of Russia, France and Germany.

In 1999, 14-year-old Pelageya graduated from school as an external student and entered the Russian Academy theatrical art in Moscow. In the same year, the singer became the lead singer of the group “Pelageya”, with which she soon released her first single “Lyubo!” Despite the very unusual musical style (or perhaps precisely because of it), the composition became very popular.

Pelageya - Lyubo!

From that moment on, Pelageya began her artistic life at her usual crazy pace: tours, performances, studio recordings, searching for musical material and constant work on her vocal abilities, because there is no limit to perfection.

In 2003, the young artist released her debut album - a retrospective of her best compositions over the years of her career, and also graduated with honors from the theater academy. The girl showed similar miracles of productivity in the future.

However, there was also “Chubchik” - a duet with Garik Sukachev, the song “Under the caress of a plush blanket” with lyrics by Marina Tsvetaeva, a cover of “Nyurka’s song” by Yanka Diaghileva. The album received mixed reviews. For example, the authoritative music magazine Rolling Stones gave Pelageya’s disc 4 out of 5 points, while some critics accused the Pelageya group of having “discolored and withered” in its performance of folk songs.

In 2009, Pelageya presented to the public a new album - a recording of a live performance at the Ice Palace in St. Petersburg. The accompaniment of the Transbaikal Cossack choir gave the record a special charm. This record provided Pelageya with first place in the “Chart’s Dozen” hit parade in the “Soloist” category. In the same year, she sang a duet with the late lead singer of the group “King and the Jester” Mikhail Gorshenev on the air of “Our Radio”.

In the same year, the popular artist appeared as a participant in the “Two Stars” project, where she performed together with Daria Moroz.

In 2012, the girl was invited to the vocal talent show “The Voice” as a mentor. Taking the chair next to Dima Bilan, Alexander Gradsky and Leonid Agutin, she recruited a team of talented stars. And although Dina Garipova, who was part of Gradsky’s team, became the winner, her ward Elmira Kalimullina took second place - also a very solid result.

Pelageya occupied the position of “The Voice” mentor for the first three seasons: in the second, Tina Kuznetsova from her team took fourth place, and in the third, her student Yaroslav Dronov received a silver prize.

In 2014, the girl became a mentor at the subsidiary project “Voices”, in which young talents demonstrated their skills. Since her ward Ragda Khanieva (a native of Moscow, but Ingush by blood) took second place in the project, the head of the Republic of Ingushetia, Yunus-bek Evkurov, awarded Pelageya the title of Honored Cultural Worker.

Although Pelageya left “The Voice” after the third season, giving way to Polina Gagarina, the wards of the show “The Voice. Children” she took care of in both the second and third seasons. In both cases, she brought two girls to the finals, Saida Mukhametzyanova and Taisiya Podgornaya, who were awarded third places.
