From the age of 14, Maxim actively begins to take part in various music competitions, for example, Teen Star and Nefertiti's Necklace, and also begins to write songs. The first were the compositions "Alien" and "Winter", which were included on the disc "My Paradise".
It is worth noting that the musical preferences of the future celebrity were very diverse. As the singer Maxim herself admits, she listened to everything - from "Spleen" to "Guests from the Future". However, the singer's preferences were also influenced by the music that her father listened to - these are The Beatles and Pink Floyd. And besides this, the girl spent a lot of time in the company of her brother and constantly listened to courtyard music.
The beginning of MakSim's career
At the age of 15, Maxim had already firmly decided that she would become a singer and began to take her first career steps. At studios in her hometown, the girl collaborates with the Pro-Z group and records her first songs Start, Alien and Passer-by. The first song becomes a number one hit in Tatarstan, played on local radio and in all clubs.And after some time it gets into the “Russian Top Ten”, although the then popular “t.A.T.u.” were declared by the authors. according to the singer herself, she wrote this song long before the group appeared.
Singer Maxim begins to engage in her own promotion. The girl records songs as part of a low-budget project and collaborates with little-known bands.
And the radio gets Maxim's single "Difficult Age", however, it does not have such success as the second one - "Tenderness". A year later, the composition "Centimeters of Breath" hits the air. Suddenly, the song becomes popular. And this despite the fact that there was no promotional company. However, despite such success, the name of the singer is still not known to the general public.
The singer decides to go to Moscow. In the capital, the girl begins to write new songs. By the way, they say that at first the singer Maxim performed in the subway.

The unexpected success of the singer Maxim
Maxim collected enough material for the album and began to look for a company that would agree to work with her.“Once I unexpectedly arrived at a dance festival in St. Petersburg and saw that the song “Difficult Age” was being sung by 15 thousand people with me. With this video, I came to the Gala Records company - it was already obvious to the management that this was perceived positively by people, ”recalls singer Maxim.
Maksim - Do you know
This is how the first album of the singer “Difficult Age” appears, the hallmarks of which were the songs “Become the Wind”, “Do You Know?” and "Let go". And the song “Tenderness” gets to the first place of the chart of the “Russian Radio “Golden Gramophone” and stays there for 9 weeks. By the way, in the first few weeks, more than 200 thousand records of the artist were bought and the album becomes platinum.

The fans perceive the first single of the album "My Paradise" with a bang, and the video becomes popular and in demand on television.
MakSim - Stamps
“Unlike “Difficult Age”, where there were only two songs about me, and the rest were all sorts of observational situations, in the new album I sing only to myself. That is, it is autobiographical. It contains all my emotions - from panicky fun to tearful sadness - over the last two years of my life, ”says Marina.
Critics noted that the new album sounds much better than the debut, moreover, more sincere and warm. However, opinions were also expressed that there were too few hits on the disc.
The artist admits that before the release of the album, she experienced the so-called “second album syndrome”. The girl was afraid that the disc would not be as successful as the first one.
For the first time, singer Maksim plans to perform at the Olimpiysky. The question is being raised in the press - will the singer gather such a huge hall. Contrary to popular belief, the site was sold out - more than 18 thousand people came to the performance.

MakSim's personal life
In mid-2008, information appears that Maxim is pregnant. Representatives of the singer do not comment on the rumors, however, the release of the song "Best Night" confirms the veracity of the assumptions. And in the video for the composition, the girl appears already with a rounded tummy. This single again storms the top of the charts, and the singer becomes the most rotated in Russia in 2008.According to unverified reports, in October 2008, Maxim on the Indonesian island of Bali marries sound engineer Alexei Lugovtsev. The singer herself comments on changes in her personal life rather reservedly. On March 8, 2009, Maxim gives birth to a daughter, whom she names Alexandra. Immediately after that, the song “I won’t give it back” appears on the radio. And again the single is waiting for success.
A few months later, the song “Lonely” from the upcoming album of the same name hits the Internet. The composition shocks fans with its content. A young mother, in particular, sings: "I'll sit at home - it's better to smoke, I'll smoke." The girl began to be accused of promoting drugs. However, the artist herself again decided to remain silent.
Six months after the birth of their daughter, Marina Abrosimova and Alexei Lugovtsev celebrated their wedding and got married. The church rite was held in the capital's church of All Saints. Singer Maxim, despite the status of a young mother and newly-made wife, continues to work actively. And already in early December 2009, the singer will present her third album "Single". Two months later, the disc topped the Russian chart.
By the way, following the results of 2010, Maksim received quite a few awards. Among them are VOIS (“All-Russian Organization of Intellectual Property”) and “Golden Phonogram” for album circulation and song rotation on the radio.
However, in 2010, the artist presented only two songs “Rain” and “My answer is Yes!”. In December of the same year, information appeared that Maxim and the father of her child were getting a divorce. The news was confirmed a couple of months later. After that, the singer said that she had no plans to release the fourth album in a row and was just writing songs.
Soon after the divorce, a new love came into the personal life of the singer MakSim - to the lead singer of the famous St. Petersburg rock band Animal Jazz Alexander Krasovitsky. They became close while working on the video and at first hid their relationship for a long time, but rumors soon appeared that Marina settled with Alexander in his Moscow apartment. The novel did not last long.
On October 29, 2014, MakSim gave birth to her second daughter, Maria, from businessman Anton Petrov. In September 2015, it became known that MakSim broke up with her second common-law husband.
"Tender May" number two
In a very short period of time, Maxim was able to become one of the most popular performers not only in Russia, but also in the CIS countries. The girl developed her own unique style, and thanks to her perseverance and work, she was recognized as the most successful singer in the country in the first decade of the 21st century. 
The artist is already being called a pop princess and the best-selling performer in Russia. And many media outlets drew a parallel between Maxim and the Laskovy May group, which was insanely popular in the early 90s. This is because there are many lyrical and touching songs in the girl's work.
Marina loves her family for everything and despite the lack of time, she constantly visits her.
The MakSim family lives in Kazan. Parents work, and brother Maxim lives with his family and child. But let's talk about everything in order ...
Mother: Svetlana Viktorovna
Marina's mother brings up the kids in a kindergarten, where Marina and her brother Maxim spent their childhood. Marina loves her mother with all her heart and thanks her for teaching her to always be herself. However, in adolescence, Marina, like all other girls at her age, had disagreements with her mother, but the harmful Marina always won, and if not, she did it out of spite. For example, as Svetlana says, her daughter made her tattoo to spite her. “At first, her brother made a tattoo, and we talked a lot with him on this topic, scolding him for what he had done. Marina immediately stood up for her brother, and the next day she had a tattoo of this cat on her arm,” says Marina’s mother. Svetlana Viktorovna always worried that Marina did not have serious relationships and novels. And in general, according to Svetlana, Marina is not an amorous person. By the way, with regard to MakSim's career, the singer's mother always wanted Marina to become a lawyer.
Father: Sergey Orefevich
Marina's father works as an auto mechanic and has been happily married for 28 years. If we talk about character, then we can safely say that MakSim is daddy's daughter, because Marina's character is very similar to the character of her dad. Sergey says that his wife Svetlana always wanted their daughter Marina to be feminine, and her father did not worry about it and believed that growing up like a kid was not bad at all either. His son and Marina's brother, Maxim, could climb the rope anywhere at the age of three. Marina was the same. “I couldn’t sit still. And her hobbies were not girlish, ”says Sergey. Unlike Svetlana, Marina's mother, Sergey was never a strict father, so Marina always knew that if dad was at home, then you can have fun. And father MakSim always protected his daughter and never doubted that Marina would achieve a lot in the future!
Brother: Maxim Sergeevich
As a child, Marina followed her brother Maxim as if she was attached, and his friends simply called her Max. Maxim always loved and supported his sister, despite the fact that in childhood they often quarreled and did not get along with each other. When Marina was still very young, Maxim always took her to karate lessons, and then picked her up and escorted her home. Marina almost always hung out on the street only with her brother. She talked with his friends and sang along with them on the street songs with a guitar. But unlike the always cheerful and active sister, Maxim is calmer by nature. At the moment, Maxim lives with his wife and child, but never forgets about his younger sister. For example, when Marina won one of her awards, Maxim called her before everyone else and congratulated her beloved sister on her victory from the heart. By the way, Marina says that Maxim hangs posters around the apartment with the image of his sister, and also collects various articles.
First husband: Alexey Lugovtsov
Originally from the Moscow region, the city of Zhukovsky. At one time he lived and studied in St. Petersburg. When MakSim came to perform, he decided to go to a concert. I arrived early, met the director and found out that the group needed a sound director. Without hesitation, he offered himself and received a positive response. A little later, Marina and Alexey began to meet, but they did not advertise their relationship. The reason for legalizing the relationship was pregnancy, which became known a little later. The wedding process took place in Indonesia on the island of Bali in a very romantic setting. Later, the couple got married in the church. They decided not to hold “magnificent” celebrations - the wedding dress was ordered from a familiar designer Shura Tumashova, and only relatives, close friends and OK! magazine were among the guests. The wedding took place in the Church of All Saints in Krasnoselsky Lane on the last fine day of October. From the church, the newlyweds went to the Luzhkov Bridge near Bolotnaya Square, where, according to tradition, they hung a padlock on the “tree of love”, and threw the key to it into the Moscow River. We ended the day at the "Sorry, Babushka" club, where Marina and Aleksey sang songs and played the guitar."
Daughter of Alexander
March 8, 2009 at 22:49 in the capital's Family Planning Center MakSim gave birth to a daughter named Alexandra. Height - 51 cm, weight - 3 kg 100 gr. According to MakSim, she never dreamed of children, but when Sasha was born, Marina simply stuck to her and could not come off. When the singer has to go on tour, her father, Alexei Lugovtsov, looks after her daughter. MakSim's parents come to visit them once a month and also help with the baby. "They pamper her terribly!" Marina says. According to her, the girl is all in her dad. “She doesn’t like falling asleep to lullabies. On the contrary, it starts to hang out! says the young mother.
Daughter Maria
She was born on October 29, 2014. The birth went well, so the artist did not linger in a medical facility and hurried home. At one of the most popular among domestic celebrities of the Moscow maternity hospital, Marina was met by her relatives.
Singer and composer Marina Maksimova (MakSim) was born on June 10, 1983 in Kazan. The name familiar to many is just a stage name; at birth, the girl was registered by Marina Abrosimova. Her father was a car mechanic, and her mother worked as a kindergarten teacher. The children of Marina Maximova appeared in different marriages, the girl was never able to find happiness in her personal life. However, she loves her daughters immensely and is ready for a lot for them.
From early childhood, Marina began to get involved in music. She liked not only vocals, but also playing musical instruments, in particular the piano. Only the interests of the young lady were not limited to music: she also visited the karate section. In this type of martial arts, she managed to achieve quite impressive results.
While still a schoolgirl, Marina began to pursue her own musical career. The girl took an active part in many music competitions, won first places, won prestigious prizes. At the same time, she began to write her own songs, which could not go unnoticed. Some of her first works were subsequently included in the singer's albums.
At the age of fifteen, Marina had already accurately decided on the choice of profession and was moving in the right direction. Together with the Pro-Z musical group, she recorded several tracks. The song "Start" has gained immense popularity in the territory of his native Tatarstan. However, breaking through to the top of fame was not so easy. At the same time, the now popular TATU group also tried to climb to the musical Olympus. It even got to the point that the singer Maxim began to be accused of imitating the group. However, this was wrong.
The first steps on the road to success were very difficult. But Marina did not give up and continued to build her career. In 2003, the girl decides to move to Moscow. This is where the trouble just started. Relatives who were supposed to shelter the young star abandoned her. I had to spend the night at the station for several days, and then I met one dancer. It was she who suggested that Marina jointly rent an apartment in which Maksimova lived for the next six years. Now she remembers this already with a smile in her eyes, but at that time it was not a laughing matter. Difficulties helped to significantly temper the character and achieve success with even greater perseverance.
The personal life of Marina Maximova was not very rosy. She repeatedly tried to create a happy family, but these attempts were unsuccessful. After working on the video “Let go”, the star was credited with an affair with actor Denis Nikiforov. However, the guys did not give any comments about this. The first official husband of Maxim was the sound engineer Alexei Lugovtsev. Very soon, Alexander's daughter was born in a young family. A few years later, the couple nevertheless decided to leave. Despite the severe stress after the divorce, Marina did not put an end to love and the possibility of a new relationship. After parting, she completely immersed herself in work.
Some time after the divorce, Marina started an affair with musician Alexander Krasovitsky. This did not lead to anything serious and the couple decided to leave. In 2014, the singer remarried businessman Anton Petrov. From him was born the second daughter of an artist named Maria. But this time, it was not possible to create a strong and happy family.
Recently, rumors have actively begun to spread that Marina has resumed relations with her ex-boyfriend Alexander Krasovitsky. The guys do not give any denials or confirmations about this.
1345 ViewsPossessing a surprisingly strong female energy and a romantic image, the singer with the male pseudonym Maxim absolutely does not need an official introduction, since for many years the army of her fans has continued to arrive. Naturally, the stellar path for her, as well as for many of her colleagues, was not so simple. The performer had to experience disappointments, betrayals, and outright betrayal. However, no ups and downs in either creative or personal life could affect the quivering and tender relationship with both the eldest daughter of singer Maxim Alexandra, born from her first marriage with Alexei Lugovtsov, and with the younger Maria, whose father is businessman Anton Petrov.
The performer became one of those women who managed to combine the development of a successful career with the birth of children. Today she is a happy mother of two daughters, whom she loves madly. The story of the birth of the youngest daughter of the singer Maxim is known to many, firstly because it happened relatively recently - only almost two years ago, and secondly, because it is connected with the scandalous story of the betrayal of the civil husband of the heroine of our article. Nevertheless, Maxim does not make a difference between his daughters, having managed to survive the negative of those days and leaving him in the past. Probably, fearing unhealthy curiosity for the baby after everything that happened, the singer hid her from others for a very long time and only recently showed her to the public.
As for the eldest daughter of the singer Maxim, Alexandra is already a schoolgirl. Last year, the performer took the girl to the first grade of a general education gymnasium. Naturally, like any caring mother, Maxim is responsible for the education of her daughter, so a year before the start of school, her daughter began to attend preparatory classes. Inherent in the star and a sense of maternal pride. And there is something to be proud of, because, although Alexandra's age is quite young, the girl is already doing an excellent job of cooking some dishes. Obviously, she inherited her love for cooking from her mother, who from childhood was taught to bake and cook.
The fact with which the celebrity treats her girls with trepidation and care is also evidenced by the fact that she does not deny herself or them the joy of communication, paying a lot of attention to children, despite the fact that, of course, she also has assistants in face of the nanny and parents. Having stepped over her own experiences from failures in past relationships, Maxim did not leave her babies without the attention of their fathers, which also speaks of her feminine wisdom.
“Masha from the very beginning was just a gift option for a child. I have never seen such cool children, honestly. From the very first days, she aroused both me and everyone around me with complete delight. Just turn on the camera and shoot 24 hours a day - a good mood is provided to all viewers, ”said MakSim.
According to the singer, the youngest daughter is growing up as a real lady: she is always very careful and tries not to get dirty when she eats. After the birth of the heiress, MakSim was in no hurry to return to work. The woman promised herself to go on stage again when she stopped feeding the girl. However, it turned out completely differently.
“Almost immediately after the birth of my daughter, I started working on a video for the song “Golden Fish”. I played a ballerina there, and I had to take choreography lessons - I stood at the barre for three hours, made racks and bridges, ”the singer admitted in an interview with TV Program.

MakSim tries to pamper his heirs. A few months ago, she arranged a grand celebration for Sasha. On her seventh birthday, the girl was presented with a cake with fairies, children were entertained by fairy-tale characters, dancers, circus poodles, and colorful confetti was sprinkled on top of the guests of the evening.
