Today's telephone conversation with the former soloist of the Demo group and designer Sasha Zvereva for the editor of the Stars and Children column Tatyana Silina was not the first. They had seen each other for several years. Then her daughter Vasilisa was 7, her son Makar was only 2 years old. They gladly met Tatyana in their Moscow apartment and enthusiastically talked about their favorite toys.
That conversation with the mother of two children was remembered for a long time. And especially the phrase: "I do not strive for peace and to be supported by a man." 6 years have passed - and it became clear that Sasha Zvereva was not cunning at all.

Sasha, you are now in Los Angeles. With three children. In the status of an unmarried girl. That is, it turns out that the desire to constantly do something and be financially independent has not disappeared?
Nothing has changed since our last interview! I am not supported by a man and I am not in such a state that I can relax and, like most women, do housework and take children to circles. There was not, is not and will not be. I live in America, pursue a career, develop my business, dedicate myself to children. And when a person appears in my life, I will make sure that he is not another man whom I will need to help financially and pull this share on myself. And inner peace… I finally found it!
About 5 years ago, I didn’t have the confidence inside me that I have now. I didn’t feel like if something happened, I could handle everything on my own. I had some dependence on a man. When our relationship went wrong, I tried to save them. And at the same time, not because I love and can’t live, but because it was scary. This is what happens to most women in Russia. They do not know where to go, what to eat, what to do in case of separation. I have gone through this fear.
I know that I will do everything myself, I know that I will endure everything and that everything will be better than it could be.

And so it happened. You alone with three children moved to live in the United States. What prompted you to do this?
Just a few days ago I wrote a post about why I moved. You see, when you tell Russian people that it happened because of the weather, they don't believe it! (laughs) For them, this is not a serious reason to leave their comfort zone and move to a distant country, because "it's expensive, difficult, scary."
But you know, there is such an expression: “Nothing is impossible if you are crazy to the right degree.”
This is what happened to me! I was so crazy about Moscow, from the dirt around ... I am a person for whom all the little things are important. This can even be understood from my Instagram. I always describe the weather in detail, I look at the soil, grass, leaves, clouds. For me this is really very important. In Moscow, you left the supermarket with bags, put them in the trunk, and on your jeans there was a giant stain of dirt from the car. Dirt is everywhere - on tights, on the windshield, when you drive along the Moscow Ring Road ... And here, clean jeans all year round, a clean car, it smells delicious of the ocean. For me, these details are everything! It is very comfortable to live here. Comfortable inside and out - from shopping for underwear to the smell of water in the sink.

Comfort is, of course, great. But in a foreign country you need to do something, and this is probably more difficult than at home ...
Of course, you need to practice. I have a business. The SZstyle project is a Russian production of “universal clothes” that can be worn by pregnant women, nursing women, and ordinary girls (there are special rubber bands and hidden zippers for feeding in the clothes). And also SZLA - store in Los Angeles. I bring excellent vitamins and dietary supplements from America, super-effective cosmetics based on plants and superfoods. All of these are sold in my store. I also give concerts in Russia and America.
I am also engaged in my informational activities - I tell women how to prepare for childbirth.
In general, in America there is a very large percentage of births by caesarean section. But in Los Angeles right now the trend is all natural and natural, women's minds are changing. And I can come in handy here, because I have a wonderful example of three natural births, I have moved to another country behind me. I think that all this inspires confidence in me as a person who can be listened to and who can be trusted.
Sasha calls her parents very wise people
Instagram@sashazvereva
Sasha, how did your parents react to your decision to move?
My parents are very wise people. Maybe I would not be equal to them in some everyday or business matters, but in their attitude towards children - definitely! They never impose their opinion and vision. They accept any choice of their children. They can warn, talk about their concerns, but there has never been pressure or rejection on their part. I try to transfer this wisdom to my children - whatever you are, even if the whole world is against you, know that there are people at home who will always be for you, who will be on your side.
I understand that you are a very independent and independent girl. But still three children - not one baby. They require enormous attention, expenses ...
There is an opinion that after the birth of three children it becomes easy even with the fourth, even with the fifth. No! Each child is an even greater burden. Both moral and financial. And the most important thing is responsibility. I feel a huge, incredible responsibility. In principle, I arranged everything in my life so that now I can breathe and wake up in the morning happily and easily. But responsibility... It will last until, probably, the youngest child is at least 21-22 years old. Here, for example, a girl, in any case, needs to be provided with initial capital in a bank, a car, housing.
I understand that I must be able to do everything and be in time for everything. How - I do not know yet, but, as they say, the road will be mastered by the walking one.
Makar and Vasilisa spoke English 3 months after moving
Instagram@sashazvereva
How are children in a new country? After all, moving is a new language, new friends, a new school ... This is not always painless ...
At first it was very difficult. But absolutely everyone who moves with children over 10 years old faces this. Until the age of 10, they tolerate such changes normally, at this age it is simply important for them that their mother is nearby. But after that it is more difficult, because children form a certain circle of friends that they do not want to change. And so Vasilisa was given a difficult move. Everyone told me: "Sasha, give her a year to adapt." But I remember that a year has already passed, but still things did not move much from the dead center. I even began to worry ... We worked with a psychologist - Vasilisa told him on Skype about all her problems. Everything fell into place when the daughter had a large team of friends. She became more self-confident, fell in love with this country.
Tell us how Vasilisa and Makar reacted to the fact that at one moment the family was left without a dad?
Vasilisa saw that something was wrong. Makar didn't care - he was still too small. To explain how we all reacted to parting with Ilya (father of Vasilisa and Makar - ed.), I will give an example: just imagine - a man was walking along the road and his car was hit. He was gone in an instant. And it happens that a person is sick for a long time and the whole family understands that he will soon be gone. Yes, it is hard, but there is an internal readiness for this.
So it was with Ilya - we all understood that this story was ending.

Is there anything you can't forgive your loved one?
It’s difficult… With age, the boundaries expand and you are more ready to accept a person as he is, you move away from material ideas, for example, “I can’t forgive him if he doesn’t earn a lot of money”, “I won’t be able to forgive him if he will cheat on me with another woman.” It is more important for me if a person cannot accept me, my side, fails to defend my interests, and I cannot feel protected next to him. This is going to ruin my relationship.
You lived with a man without a stamp in your passport, you were a legal wife. During this time, have you changed your view of what a family should be like?
I lived with a man for 10 years with the hope that if you don’t sign, then it’s forever. However, the relationship ended. Then she lived in marriage for 4 years and thought that now it was definitely forever. Also no. You know, I think that the most important thing is love between people. If there is love, then it doesn't matter if there is a seal or not. Probably the most important thing is the wedding. I didn't have a wedding. This is where you need to approach.
You are a very outspoken person. Especially in the reality show "Pregnant" on "Home". Are you afraid to open up to the world like that?
Believe me, in the reality show “Pregnant” and on Instagram, you saw 1/8 of everything that happens in my life. I do not show the true state of things, I do not tell how my affairs really are.
Sometimes I even play such complicated games to lure people away from what I really want to hide.
So don't worry about me. What I need, I safely hid (smiles).
Naturalness is Sasha's original motto
Instagram@sashazvereva
You have half a million subscribers. That is, you are the person who is interesting. Whom you want to look up to. After all, this is a big responsibility! Not scary?
I can’t answer for people whether they adequately perceive the information on Instagram or not. I judge myself. Sane people will always give their assessment. I read a lot of people on Instagram - these are psychologists, and valeologists, and adherents of a healthy lifestyle, and coaches. Of course, I do not agree with all of their postulates. I take note of something, I apply something in life, but I immediately forget something. I believe that this should be the case for every sane person. I try to write neatly, I feel this responsibility. For example, I never said that you need to give birth only at home, that hospitals are bad, scary and wrong. I can calmly talk about this with people who, I am sure, will understand everything correctly and will not blindly imitate. But I will not discuss this with a large audience.
Singing a hit about the sun in her hands, the mother of two children, the soloist of the Demo group Sasha Zvereva sometimes wanted to cry from impotence. Even being at home, the singer could not feel protected. About the humiliation that she had to endure, and about how she found her new happiness, Sasha told Alla ZANIMONETS.
Decision made, no return
- Early in the morning I go to my husband. "Ilya, we have to pay for the dances Vasilisa. Give me two thousand rubles. In response, I hear: “Pay yourself. I'll give it back later. You know I didn't pay off my loans." This eternal "later" and blatant lies about some mythical loans infuriated me! From resentment for the children, on whom my own father spares money, I lost my self-control. I released my claws like a wild cat, clung to his back, scratched, shouting that he had already got me with his stinginess. The rage was so strong that I realized: yes, I'm ready to kill him! And suddenly, as if I woke up, I said to myself: “Sasha, what are you doing? So far from sin. And then you go to jail." My head immediately cleared up, I say quite calmly: “That's all for today! Go to work. Good luck!" I turn around, go to the children's room and freeze in place. And then suddenly I jump from the thought: "I'm starting a new life."
I wake up the children and tell them to get ready as soon as possible. I am writing a note to Ilya: “You have lost all the best that you had.” I put Vasilisa and Makar in the car, calling my friends along the way: “Does anyone have an empty apartment?” One of the acquaintances responds: "Sashka, stay with me on Chertanovskaya." The apartment was tiny. We piled things in a corner, and in the evening we went to sleep on a narrow bed with a valet. But I felt happy. The Rubicon has been crossed - the decision has finally been made and there is no going back. Joy was mixed with fear: will I still have a personal life with two children in my arms? In order not to be afraid and not to return to an established life, she ordered herself: “Sasha, be patient! You won't live like you used to."
Ilya cut off the phone, but I didn’t answer: I didn’t want to see him or hear him, I was afraid that he would ask for forgiveness again, convince me that I had to return. Four days later I found this apartment in which we now live. I understood that it was already not easy for children and it was necessary to preserve their usual way of life, not to change Vasilisa's kindergarten, so I rented a house in the same house where Ilya and I lived for almost ten years.
Get out of here, you stupid fool!
- Ilyusha and I met in 2001 and immediately fell in love with each other. I was already known at that time, the song "Sunshine" was played on many radio stations, the group Demo, whose soloist I was, actively toured. Ilya at that time studied at the Bauman ( MSTU them. Bauman. — Approx. "TN") University, then graduated from graduate school, got a job in a bank. Although he is a smart guy, he did not have a stunning career. I have always worked and earned more than him. I remember that even at the 39th week of pregnancy I rushed off on tour. Ilya took it for granted, and it seemed to me that everything was fine, the family needed to be provided for. And if Ilya does not do this, then it remains for me to take care of food myself. But resentment against him grew like a snowball. While I was carrying Vasilisa, I forbade myself to think about it. To cheer up, she undressed in front of the mirror and painted the sun on her stomach - eyes, a smile. I look and rejoice, I say to myself: “All is nonsense! But soon you will become a mother! I love children very much and when I found out that I was pregnant, I was in seventh heaven with happiness. Ilya too. But besides questions of a material nature, others were added.
In the third year of family life, Ilya became addicted to the bottle. It would be nice to have a glass or two at dinner, but no! Hide in the room and drink. I go in, I feel - it smells of wine, and he assures with a blue eye: “I swear! I didn't drink!" I say: "Swear on the health of children." - "I swear!" And the next day the child has a temperature under forty ...
I could not react calmly to this, I was scandalous. The fights between us didn't stop. When he drank, he became completely insane. Once, for no apparent reason, right in bed, he began to choke me. And Vasilisa slept with us, she was about two years old, so she woke up, got scared, peed ... Then I realized that that was all, it was a collapse. But then she dragged on for almost five years, and even gave birth to her second child. Why? Yes, because in my head in childhood there was a matrix of a happy family life - such as my parents. They have been together for forty years, raised two children and have always believed that divorce is a real disaster, a disaster. But Ilya's parents disliked me right away. I do not know why. They probably wanted their smart and educated son to have a wife, at least a candidate of sciences. And here I am - a girl from show business. But I love to learn, I constantly go to some seminars, I listen to lectures. It is interesting to communicate with me, and the presence of diplomas has nothing to do with it. I know people with two higher educations, but the most boring and narrow-minded! Although, maybe my relatives didn’t like me for something else - they never expressed specific claims to me. When my husband and I, having lived together for a year, came to visit them with the good news that they would become grandparents, the faces of our parents turned to stone. “Well, it means that our life has now collapsed…” we heard. For others, with the birth of grandchildren, life begins anew, while for these it “collapsed”. Then I suddenly thought: "Ilyusha and I will not see happiness." And so it turned out. When I was in my ninth month, my mother-in-law advised Ilya to do a genetic examination. She came to visit me right away and said: “We all think that the child is not Ilya.” I am dumbfounded by such assumptions. Not his child ... Yes, Vasilisa is like two drops of water similar to her dad and with the same birthmarks on her hand, like her grandmother!
To be honest, I had certain hopes for the appearance of Vasilisa. She reasoned like this: “Ilya is the only son, which means that his parents will love his granddaughter, and at the same time they will treat me more favorably.” I couldn't figure out why you couldn't love me. I was a good wife to their son, caring, earned money, gave birth to beautiful children and was engaged in raising them myself. The attacks of my relatives wounded me to the very heart. Of course, I asked my husband to intercede for me. But he remained neutral even in egregious situations. Once we came to the father-in-law and mother-in-law at the dacha. Vasilisa was very tiny then. A bunch of relatives gathered, everyone drank, they sit at the table, making noise. Suddenly, the father-in-law rises, looks around at everyone with a heavy look and says: “It is a pity that there is one weak link among us.” And points to me: “You! It's time for you to leave us." I was taken aback and, restraining myself so as not to say impudence to the elderly man, I got up, packed my things, put my sleepy daughter in the car and rushed back to Moscow. On the way, Ilya made a terrible scandal, sobbed: “Keep your relatives!” And he, a uniformed seal, replies: “You understand me too, Sash! So what do I tell them? They rotted me all my life, reproached me with every ruble - it was always difficult with them.
Actually, I am a gentle person, I tried to appease my pride, to endure for the sake of my family. Therefore, even after such humiliation, she did not stop communicating. Somehow they call: “Come, our cucumbers are ripe.” I collect the child, we arrive ... And the mother-in-law picks up cucumbers, holds out the unwashed Vasilisa. I say: "Oh, dirty little cucumber, you need to wash it." And in response it rushes: “Ah, you disdain my cucumbers, point to uncleanliness ?! Get out of here, you stupid fool!" My mother cried when she heard about everything. And dad called "relatives", tried to explain that I was a good wife and mother. But no use!
At the news of my second pregnancy, my mother-in-law squealed: “Your child will die, drug addict!” And she told me this, a person who has been leading a healthy lifestyle since school. Yes, I breast-fed Vasilisa until she was three years old! And they decided: if from show business, then, then, a drug addict.
While I was wearing Makar, our relationship with Ilya improved dramatically. Both had the hope that now everything will be fine. But after the birth of a son, quarrels broke out with renewed vigor. We generally stopped behaving like spouses - hugging, kissing ... We slept in different rooms. But Ilya kept saying that he loved children and could not live without me.
And his relatives at this time stepped up their onslaught. One day I come home with the children (and we lived in an apartment that they “gave” to their son, but registered it for themselves without even registering the kids there!), And there Sveta, Ilya’s second cousin, is in charge with her husband-ambala. “In a good way, you don’t understand, so it’s time to explain in a bad way! Immediately pack your things and get out of this apartment with your children, ”Sveta tells me, putting her hands on her hips. I answer: “Actually, it’s already late now, eleven in the evening, it’s time for Makar to sleep. And it's minus twenty outside. Where will I go? She suddenly rushes at me, clings to my throat and chokes me! I hear Vasilisa's heart-rending cry: "Mommy, mommy!" Forces came from somewhere, pushed the boorish away. And then a phone call. Her hubby picked up the phone in a businesslike way: “Yes? She will leave this house soon,” and hands me the phone. On the other end of the wire, the father-in-law: “We don’t intend to tolerate you anymore!” Sveta's husband is chewing on a sausage and suddenly spitting in my face! Now it is difficult to tell all this, because in the head of a healthy person it does not fit at all how one can behave like this ... My mind has become clouded, the only thought in my head is to run! But the body could not stand it, I lost consciousness. When I came to my senses, I heard: “Yes, let it lie, don’t pick it up, be a man, let’s go and have a drink.” It turned out that Ilya was at home and, drunk, saw and heard all this ... The children were yelling in two voices, a company of crazy people was sour in the kitchen, and I was lying in the corridor ... I got up, wandered along the wall to the nursery, where the children were crying, dressed them , I throw things into bags and go to Kupavna, to my parents. A few days later, Ilya rushed over, fell to his knees: "Sasha, I'm sorry!" And here is the mysterious soul of a Russian woman! I'm sorry and I'm back!!!
When I nevertheless left Ilya, aggression appeared. For many months in a row I had the same terrible dream: I scalp my former relatives, I cut open their stomachs ... So my subconscious released the accumulated resentment. To feel more confident, I became interested in Thai boxing. She beat a pear, imagining that these were my offenders.
I was categorically against marriage
- At first, I couldn’t even think about forgiving Ilya and starting to somehow communicate with him again. Our relationship was established ... my girlfriend. She persuaded me: “Sashka, no one asks you to return, but the children are suffering! Vasilisa cries all the time, has become twitchy. Children need a father." I growled back, "No!" Then she, without telling me anything, went to our old apartment. The front door is open, in the semi-darkness of the living room he sees Ilya, lying face down on the sofa in headphones. Nearby is an empty bottle. She pushed him aside: “Ilya, Sasha lives with the children in the next entrance.” And he came to us, swollen with tears, with trembling hands...
Now he comes in, plays with Vasilisa and Makar, sometimes takes them on weekends. But even if we spend fifteen minutes together, we will certainly quarrel - and again because of money. Fortunately, our marriage was not registered, so there was no trial. Why didn't we formalize the relationship by having two children? Yes, I just always did not consider it necessary to put a seal under my feelings for a man. But the parents pressed: it is necessary that everything be like people have. And when I was pregnant with Vasilisa, we still went to the registry office. We go up the stairs - and suddenly I turn inside out, although before that there was no toxicosis! Ilyusha looked and said thoughtfully: “I see that you don’t physically want to get married.” Well, we turned around: we considered it a sign from above.
I thawed out gradually
- On October 26, I left Ilya, and on November 16, Dima appeared. Not long "sitting in the girls." Now I’m teasing Ilya: “You see, a good person is always in great demand!”
I asked a friend for the phone number of DJ Dmitry Almazov in search of new musical material. Dima creates and plays trance music in his Bobina project. I heard one of his compositions in the hit parade, and I really liked it.
For some reason, my friend began to get dark: they say, I have a phone, but I need to ask his permission, and in general he is a disgusting type. As Dima later told me, he also asked us to introduce this girl - he saw our photo with her on a social network. And in response he heard: “Yes, why do you need it? She is married, has two children, and is also a rare bitch.” It turned out that our mutual friend really liked Dima. And she was afraid that his acquaintance with me might prevent her from receiving his attention and gifts. Be that as it may, I beat Dima's phone number out of her. I remember writing a playful text message: “Hello to the star from the star! Let's talk". Meanwhile, Dima was in China and offered to go to Skype. We chatted for two hours about everything.
A few days later, some guy drove into the rear bumper of my car. I had to take it in for repairs. I took it and wrote to Dima - a man whom I had never seen: "Can't you borrow your car for a couple of days?" The answer came instantly: “Take it!” He just didn’t need her: he flew somewhere again. We met in a hurry: Dima was already late for the airport, so we just exchanged a couple of phrases: "I'm Sasha." - "My name is Dima. Here is the car, here are the keys,” and left. Then we talked every day on Skype already with video. It was like this: the children were sleeping, and I, afraid to wake them up, put on my headphones, listened to what Dima was talking about, and simply nodded in response.
When Dima returned to Moscow and we met, I had to stop by the studio. He suggested: "Come to me, I have a studio at home." Frankly, I thought Dima would take the opportunity and at least kiss him, but he kept aloof. Which pissed me off even more. It turned out that he, accustomed to quick victories, this time decided to act differently and not rush things.
When we became close, everyone around, including my beloved mother, kept saying: yes, he is frivolous, he will fight and leave.
But Dimino's environment turned out to be kinder. Even his mother - it would seem! - said: "Well, nothing, Dima, Ivan Urgant also married a woman with two children."
Although I didn’t believe for a long time that Dima took our romance seriously, I still gradually thawed. But one day I almost decided that Dima was my mistake. It was in Yekaterinburg, where we flew to celebrate Vasilisa's 7th birthday. Dima had a performance scheduled there. In the morning I decorated my daughter's room in the hotel room with balloons, wrote posters with congratulations. The girl was supposed to wake up, see all the gifts and go with us down to the restaurant to the festive table. I wake up Dima: “Get up! It's time to go congratulate Vasya! And he: "You go, I'm now ..." And fell asleep. We are waiting for him downstairs, we are waiting ... Vasya put her bear on his chair. I sent Dima an SMS: "Misha is now sitting in your place." And at the very heart of the cat scratching: do I need a man who did not take my child's birthday seriously. But when I saw Dima running from the elevator, combing his hair on the go, I realized that he was simply not used to getting up so early and slept not at all from indifference ...
Laughing, Dima tells me: “Sasha, God heard my prayers! I asked to give me both a wife and children as soon as possible, because suddenly in 2012 the end of the world will come! As for the wedding ... Ironically, I, an ardent opponent of officialdom, now suddenly wanted a white dress and a celebration for the whole world. And I’m even trying on Dima’s last name for my name. And I love the sound!
After some decline in her singing career, she returned to the ranks of the most talked about and famous people, expanding her field of activity to the sphere of giving birth and raising babies. Along with conceptually new vocal DJ sets, she began to offer her own perspective on the process of childbearing and childbirth during her training workshops. Many Russian women began to consider her an expert in matters of pregnancy and assigned the status of "motherhood guru".
Childhood and youth
Sasha was born and raised in Potsdam, Germany, where her father served in the Western Group of Forces. The baby's mother was a teacher. There, the girl went to first grade and began to study music. Nature endowed her with excellent vocal abilities, which allowed her to successfully graduate from a music school. 
In 1996, the family moved to the Moscow region, settled in the small village of Staraya Kupavna. Sasha had the usual childhood of a Soviet teenager - yard games, spending the night with girlfriends, night walks around the field.
Having received a secondary education, Sasha entered the Moscow Linguistic University. While still a student, she heard an announcement on the radio about the recruitment of soloists in a new youth musical group. Without hesitation for a long time, the girl went to the audition and made an indelible impression on the producers by performing an aria from Eugene Onegin. A contract was immediately signed with her, and from that moment Sasha's quiet measured life changed dramatically.
Career
In March 1999, Sasha signed a contract and became the soloist of the group, where two dancers performed in addition to her, and on April 26 their debut public performance took place on the stage of the Moscow Palace of Youth. In the summer, the first compositions of the musicians - "The Sun" and "2000 Years" - already occupied leading positions in the charts, they were known by heart and the whole country sang: "The sun in the hands and a wreath of stars in the sky ...". 
For several years in a row, there was not a single break in the Demo tour schedule. During this time, the group traveled all over the vast expanses of the former CIS and gained wide popularity abroad: they went on tour in the Baltic States, Great Britain, Australia, and Israel. The concerts of the group gathered full halls and stadiums, including the Olympic, Ice Palace and Luzhniki. The audience was captivated by the beautiful voice of the performer, her charisma, spectacular outfits, and the fact that she never performed to the phonogram. Over the eleven years of its existence, the band has released seven albums and won many honorary music awards, including the Golden Gramophone in 1999. In this Zvereva, who won the hearts of millions of listeners with her “live” performance and powerful charisma, was a great success.
Demo - The sun in the hands (1999)
In the fall, a video for the song "The Sun" was shown on television. At the end of the year, for this composition, the musicians became laureates of the Golden Gramophone award, the award ceremony of which was held in the Kremlin. In terms of popularity among domestic stars, the group was second only to Alla Pugacheva and The Time Machine at that time. Then there were shootings on the streets of Prague of a video for the song “I don’t know” and a grandiose tour of the cities of the USA and Germany, where they were inevitably successful.
April 26, 2009 in the Moscow club "Tochka" the singer shone at the anniversary concert in honor of the 10th anniversary of the group. Then, as part of a team, she visited more than 40 cities of the Russian Federation, Europe and America with concerts. In the same period, the compositions “First Kiss”, “Point”, “Don't Be Silent”, which later became hits, saw the light. A video clip was filmed for the last of the named songs in the Northern capital by director Mikhail Lapis, a friend and admirer of Sasha's work. Interestingly, his shooting took place in the scenery of the film "Peter FM" by Oksana Bychkova.
In total, with the participation of Alexandra, the Demo group released 7 studio albums, including "DJ Remix 2000", "Above the Sky", "Goodbye, Summer", "Rainbow", and received many music awards ("Stopudov Hit", "Song of the Year", "Bomb of the Year" In May 2012, she officially announced the end of their joint activities, deciding to pursue a solo career.
In a new capacity, she released the singles “Stay”, “As Before” (ft. El Ray), “Superboy” (ft. Sasha Dith & Steve Modana), “Woman”, “Poisonous”, video clips for the composition “I'm Going Crazy” , "Why", "Maybe".
The fans of the singer were enthusiastically greeted (even in Ulan-Ude in July 2014) and her conceptually new two-hour concert performance "Dj-singer-show", during which her strong live vocals sound among the hit tracks, charging those present with amazing energy and breaking the performance about traditional DJ sets.
In 2015, the artist presented her debut solo album “Thanks” to the public, on the cover of which she appeared with a “belly in a rounded tummy,” as the media jokingly noted.
In parallel with her musical work, Sasha was a guest, an expert, a host of a number of entertainment television programs on the central channels of the country, with her friends - TV presenter Ksenia Borodina and wife of rapper Guf Aiza Dolmatova - she was opening her own clothing store. In 2015, being pregnant with her third child, she took part in the reality show "Pregnant" on the family TV channel "Domashny". Together with two other participants in the project - and Polina Dibrova - she told the audience the secrets of preparing for motherhood.
Sasha Zvereva - Maybe (2015)
Personal life of Sasha Zvereva
The personal history of the singer is full of ups and downs. There is information on the Web that at the age of 17, Alexandra had a lover named Pradesh, who left to study banking in Australia. Allegedly for him, suffering from separation, she then sang "even after two thousand years ...".And her first common-law husband, the father of her two children (Vasilisa, born in 2003 and Makara, born in 2008), was a bank employee Ilya Gusev. Despite a good education, her companion's career did not work out. While Sasha was earning money on tour, Ilya was sitting at home with the children, making unrealistic plans and jealous of the success of his famous wife. His addiction to alcohol aggravated the situation, scandals began, and the singer, unable to stand it, left.
Ilya took steps towards reconciliation several times, but Sasha was adamant. In addition, she soon got a new admirer - Dmitry Almazov (DJ Bobina), with whom they got married in August 2011 at the Kazantip electronic music festival in all the canons of the event - climbed the 5-story tower and swore eternal love in front of the starry sky. In April 2012, they officially formalized the relationship in one of the capital's registry offices.
A year later, their family broke up. Sasha then turned to the clergy for help, visited monasteries and managed to overcome the crisis of relations. However, in 2015, their final break happened, the main reason for which was Alexandra's move for permanent residence in the United States. Dima did not want to leave and did not even come to meet her with their common son (the boy was named Leo) from the hospital. However, Sasha is very happy to move to the "country of eternal summer", in particular, because of the proximity of the ocean, which has always inspired her.
Sasha is fond of motorcycling, loves to ride a motorcycle on mountain roads, through the forest and along the ocean. During such voyages, she receives cleansing from all negativity.
Sasha Zvereva now
Now the main priority in Sasha's life is her children. She does not forget about the career of the singer, trying to completely ignore the group "Demo" and "The Sun in Hands". She even changed her hairstyle from a short haircut with side bangs to long hair. Her tastes in music have also changed: if earlier she liked the genre of pop, now she sees the future in electronic club music. The singer also often conducts seminars on motherhood.Living on the Pacific coast in Los Angeles, Alexandra gained an impressive army of followers on Instagram who are interested in the issues of giving birth and raising babies - by the middle of 2017, about 600 thousand. Now she records songs and gathers full houses not only at her solo concerts, but also at motherhood seminars in different cities of the Russian Federation, while simultaneously creating clothes for pregnant women.
On April 1, she posted on Instagram a picture with a positive pregnancy test, the fourth (!), Intriguing her subscribers. Many of them decided that this was an April Fool's joke, but the artist noted that she had a delay of 17 days, and that it was funny for her to see two stripes on the test on such a day.
Singer and designer Sasha Zvereva, who became a mother in July of this year, having given birth to her third child, has recently been forced to constantly stumble upon questions about where her husband and father of the baby are now. DJ Dmitry Almazov, known under the pseudonym Bobina, did not react in any way to the fact that he became a father, did not visit Sasha in America and did not want to see the heir. All this only strengthened Zvereva's fans in the opinion that the star parents had finally separated, but Sasha remained silent and stoically ignored the appeals of her fans on Instagram, who demanded clarification of the situation. The artist called the questions tactless and even posted this kind of post on her page: “I would like to stop these endless questions about “agdemuzh”. I am ready to share my strengths: children, life at the Big Water, clothes, dance music, appearance, moto .... But I will never cover topics in which I have not excelled, because this makes no sense. Because I don’t want to and I have every right to do so,” thus preventing any attempts by fans to interfere in their personal lives.
However, in the end, Zvereva still decided on a frank speech. She spoke about how the break with Almazov happened as part of the reality show Pregnant, which is now successfully aired on the Domashny channel. Sasha admitted that she is still married to the father of her youngest son Leo, but in reality, the ex-spouses hardly see each other. The stumbling block was the decision of the singer to move to Los Angeles. Dmitry did not support the decision of his beloved and preferred to stay in Moscow, saying to Sasha in the end: “If you leave, I don’t promise you anything.” Several times during the filming of "Pregnant" Zvereva called Almazov, but ran into either a wall of indifference and misunderstanding, or even long beeps - the star's husband simply did not pick up the phone. According to Sasha Zvereva, her eldest daughter Vasilisa is experiencing the most difficult situation - the girl believes that they need a man in the family. Now this role is successfully performed by Zvereva's father. He communicates with his grandchildren via Skype, deals with them with those subjects that are not taught in an American school, and recently visited Sasha with his children in California, where, by the way, he became the godfather of little Levushka.
Recall that Sasha Zvereva broke up with Dmitry Almazov twice. The first break occurred in the summer of 2012. The star mother was very upset by what had happened, often visited various monasteries, turned to priests for advice, and in the end managed to establish a relationship with her beloved. For the second time, Zvereva gave a hint of discord in the family in the winter of 2015, already pregnant with her third child. While on vacation in Thailand, she wrote a heartfelt post on the network that from now on she hopes only for her own children and is not looking for anyone's loyalty and support. All this allowed fans to assume that the family broke up.
By the way, Sasha Zvereva gave birth to her older children, Vasilisa and Makar, being in a relationship with businessman Ilya Gusev. Officially, the marriage was not registered, and after parting, Zvereva told a lot of unpleasant details about her ex-wife: they say, he lived at her expense, and raised his hand, and applied to the bottle. In that case, Sasha herself initiated the breakup, taking the children and leaving to live in another apartment.
