Emin Agalarov's apartment

The musician travels a lot around the world, he has living space in Baku and New York, and an apartment in Moscow. These apartments on the top floor of the Agalarov House residential complex in the Krasnaya Presnya area were given to him by his father back in 1997. At that time, the project was one of the three best luxury buildings in the capital and is still included in the list of the most prestigious residential complexes.

The interiors of the entrance lobbies, decorated with elite grades of marble and granite, amaze with their richness and beauty. There are ancient paintings by Dutch masters on the walls, crystal chandeliers are hung everywhere, and there is also a huge and always fresh bouquet of flowers - this business card developer.

In addition to 24-hour security and separate parking, the complex is equipped with Turkish and Russian baths, a swimming pool, a solarium, billiards, a bar and a beauty salon. In general, here you will find almost everything you might need for life and recreation.

The apartment is located on top floor and is decorated in the minimalist style that is popular today. The design is dominated by light, unobtrusive colors, which highlight the interior details and emphasize the light and hospitable character of the owner. All the rooms are filled sunlight due to the many panoramic windows and a simple interior, without unnecessary details and overhanging furniture.

Large and spacious rooms containing not only expensive pieces of furniture, but also many gifts from friends, fans and favorite performers. In one of the aisles there is a huge white vase with the lyrics of the song “Incredible”, and autographed photographs of celebrities hang on the walls.

Like most musicians, Emin has a white grand piano in his living room. This room has a pleasant, warm atmosphere. Here the owner receives friends.

The star has a small music studio in which he and his musicians are preparing for their next performances. This room is mostly filled with professional tools. Emin does not have to worry about the peace of his neighbors, since his father’s apartment is located directly below him. The singer admits that this was done specifically for better sound insulation.

From the studio you can enter the attic with a magnificent view of the Stalin's skyscrapers and Krasnaya Presnya. There is a wooden table and chairs installed here; if you wish, you can sit in the company of friends or admire the evening capital alone.

On average, apartments in the Agalarov House residential complex cost from 3 to 8 million dollars and more.

Performing under the pseudonym EMIN, he has long become one of the most sought-after artists. However, Emin is successful not only as a solo performer: he is responsible for organizing the “Heat” music festival in Baku, in addition, he is the first vice president of the Crocus Group. And now Agalarov has also made his film debut: he is currently starring in the film directed by Marius Weisberg " Night shift", which is scheduled to premiere in 2018.

Despite the huge number of projects that take up almost all of Emin’s time, he was still able to find a “window” in his schedule to talk with the site. The meeting took place in St. Petersburg on film set"Night shift", but the conversation was not limited to the topic of his acting career. Raising children, relationships with women, plans for the future... We managed to discuss a lot!

Emin, it’s worth saying right away that your film debut is a pleasant surprise. How did you get involved in Marius Weisberg’s project “Night Shift”?

The situation is very interesting, I’ll start from the very beginning. Director Marius Weisberg and I have been friends for almost 20 years, and it was clear that sooner or later something in the field of cinema would happen in my life. And then Marius came with the “Night Shift” project. He showed me the filmed 20 minutes of the film, saying that there is one character there - Chernyavsky, who is one hundred percent me. The filming process, as Weisberg predicted, was supposed to take ten days, and in my case it was impossible to find that much time in my schedule. In general, we thought, tried, searched, and I agreed. And I didn’t regret it!

Tell us more about your role in the comedy film.

The film is generally about classmates who life paths separated. My role is really comical: I play the owner of an elite car dealership - a businessman. As you understand, it wasn’t that difficult for me to get used to the role =)

The main character of the film, as planned by the scriptwriters, agreed to a part-time job - striptease. Don't you have similar scenes?

I don’t dance according to the script, but I want to persuade the director (laughs).

If you imagine that your role would still involve such a scene, would you agree to star in it?

Actually, it's unlikely. It would be too hot for the screen (smiles).

You have a very busy concert schedule, you work a lot, but at the same time everyone knows how much you love your children. How do you manage to find time to meet with them?

FaceTime on the phone helps us - I'm always in touch with them. Soon I will return to Moscow for a few days for work, get back on schedule and again fly to see my children every weekend. Because of the tour in America, I haven’t seen them for more than three weeks, and I think that now I’m making up for the time of my absence. I plan to spend a lot more time with them this summer.

Yours ex-wife Leyla Aliyeva adopted a girl, and you, as it became known, are taking part in her fate. Can you tell us how the children get along with each other?

They became friends immediately, from the first day. But for me she is dear, my child.

Are her sons jealous of her?

There is probably no jealousy. There are some misunderstandings regarding toys. Sometimes they say: “This is mine, dad, she touches my toys.” And I explain that she can do anything, she’s a girl. This is a person dear to us, so my attitude towards her, of course, is exactly the same as towards my sons.

You strict dad? Can you spank me or put me in a corner?

I have to be strict, because my boys are very rowdy. And during my absence they somehow manage to go beyond what is permitted, so I have to put on a stern face. I can’t slap you, I can shake you and say: “What are you doing?”

Are you raising your children the same way you were raised as a child?

I raise things a little differently. I grew up in different conditions: the Soviet regime, we lived quite modestly, at first we had a one-room apartment, then a two-room apartment. My children are growing up in fairly prosperous conditions: in large houses, there are nannies and security guards. If I could be happy about a bottle of Coca-Cola brought home, then my children will no longer be surprised by this. As my grandmother said: “In our childhood, our parents tried to hide our lack of income from us, but in modern world sometimes you have to hide your wealth from your children." I think I'm up to the task.

You have a lot of fans, girls shower you with compliments, in a word, you are not deprived of female attention. Give advice on what a woman should do if her man is so popular and if others are constantly paying attention to him? How not to be jealous, to feel like the only one in the eyes of your loved one?

Patience is the only salvation. I understand everything, I myself have a jealous character, so I can say for sure that this is a heavy burden that is difficult for any woman to withstand and also for any man whose other half is known.

Since we're talking about women, I can't help but ask what kind of girls you like. It is clear that a woman should have a zest and so on, but do you have any weakness? I don’t know, snub noses, for example?

I don't want to draw any frames. I might also like a snub-nosed girl. Now I began to understand that men still pay attention to blondes more often. But in general, it has always been important for me to communicate with a person so that I like him or vice versa. If we talk about character, then I like soft and calm women. Those with whom you can agree.

How do you feel about the fact that now many girls, in pursuit of beauty and thousands of likes, change themselves to suit modern standards: they enlarge something, build something up. Do you even notice when a girl looks unnatural, or do men not pay attention to this?

If a person has some kind of defect, for example, a nose twice as large as that of the average person, then this can be corrected. And if a girl is pretty and wants to further improve her appearance, then in my opinion, this can only ruin her. I prefer natural beauty.

There is such a humorous saying: “When you quarrel with your girlfriend, think carefully: you want to be right or happy.” How do you feel about him? Are you ready to forgive women's weaknesses? What are you not ready to forgive? Is it possible to forgive betrayal?

I am not ready to forgive anything at all: neither deception, nor betrayal, nor any other betrayal.

And if you look from the other side? Should a wise girl forgive?

It depends on the man. There are men for whom you want to forgive. There are girls like that too, but my character doesn’t allow me, unfortunately.

You are not only an artist, but also a businessman. Now you are also acting in films. Where does this energy come from and what happens next? What else would you like to try?

Energy comes from the desire to realize one’s projects, to realize oneself as a person in different directions. That is, if I touch something, for example, today it is cinema, then immediately on the basis of this many new ideas and projects are born, because you see all the possibilities. The same thing happened with music. First I started singing, then I met many producers, got involved in the festival and the Zhara music channel. And now I have many ideas that do not yet exist on the “canvas” of Russian show business.

Yes, a network of advanced fitness clubs. This business is not as creative as, for example, music or cinema, but I think it will be successful. It’s interesting, because now there are many other clubs available.

How do you plan to attract customers, will your network be different from everyone else?

Everyone. I travel all the time to different countries, in hotels I try to go to sports clubs and spas. Everything that I have seen there over 20 years, I am integrating into the network. This fitness club will not only be the best in Russia, it will be able to compete with the world, because we have invested there all the best that was and is in this area.

Have you already thought of a name?

Yes, the name was chosen right away - Crocus Fitness.

Which other foreign performer would you like to record a duet with?

My dream is Sade. In general, in October we want to organize a big solo concert in London at the Palladium. Duets are also planned, including with foreign guests. All detailed information we will share soon.

When Emin Agalarov’s wife, Leila, two years after the wedding gave birth to her wife with two twin sons, she began to spend most of her time with the children in London.
