Oksana Sergienko May 7th birthday. Oksana Sergienko: biography, path to success, personal life

Sergienko was born in Ukraine in the city of Mirgorod. Xana started singing on stage at the age of three. At six, her parents enrolled her in a music school, which she successfully graduated from. Over the years of study, a talented girl has repeatedly become a participant in various festivals and music competitions. Sergienko was a soloist in the school choir. The girl danced in the city children's group "Rodnichok". At the age of twelve, Xana's mother, at her request, spent all her savings so that her daughter would have the opportunity to record her first song in a recording studio. To do this, each time, mother and daughter drove for two and a half hours in an old Cossack to neighboring Poltava. It was the song recorded then that became the debut on local television.

At the age of thirteen, Sergienko took part in an international competition held in Romania. Its name is "The Little Prince". There, the girl read poetry in Ukrainian, sang and danced. At this competition, Xana became the winner. The girl considered winning first place in the Black Sea Games competition a real achievement for herself.

First songs

After finishing nine classes, Ksana continued her studies at the Kiev Variety and Circus College. After studying there for three courses, she made an attempt to break into the Moscow show "People's Artist". After going through several castings, the girl received an invitation to go to work in New York at the Rasputin cabaret. Despite her young age, she agreed. Of course, Ksana was afraid to go to a foreign country, a strange city for herself. It didn't turn out to be as great as she thought. The reality turned out to be more prosaic, in addition, she was very bored. Being a winner in life, Xana decided that she would not return without achievements. The girl had to study the language a lot, at the same time she sang in a cabaret. In 2009, Sergienko received an offer to sign a contract with the British label Lizard King Records. The singer began performing at concerts as a member of the Oxzana Band.

Back in America, Xana filled out an application for participation in the American The Voice. In the spring of 2014, the girl went through three stages of casting. She had to sign a contract to perform in "blind" auditions. Surprisingly, in the same period of time, the vocalist received an invitation to a casting from the Russian show "Voice". Deciding that in Russia, with knowledge of Russian, English and Ukrainian, she would have much more opportunities for self-expression, she decided to go to Moscow. Of course, the singer had some risk of such a decision. She weighed the pros and cons and decided to go. According to Sergienko, having lived in the USA for eleven years, she practically did not develop in terms of creativity. All she achieved was performances in a club where up to fifty people came to listen to the singer, invitations to corporate parties and parties. The girl wanted a creative breakthrough that "Voice" could give her.

In the Russian "Voice", according to Ksana, the selection was more scrupulous and serious. There she performed the song "Show Must Go On". Most likely, because of this, Sergienko began to be compared with Nargiz Zakirova, who sang this song in the finale of the second season of The Voice. Another reason for such a comparison is that Ksana, like Nargiz, performs alternative rock, which in itself is unusual. At the “blind” auditions, the girl performed the song “Why” by Annie Lennox, forcing all the mentors to turn to her. Ksana chose Dima Bilan as her mentor.

Best of the day

At the "fights" Ksana's rival was Aygun Askerova. Together they performed "I will win you back", a song from the repertoire of Irina Allegrova. Both performers remained on the TV project. At the stage of "knockouts" Sergienko appeared before the jury and the audience in an unusual way, wearing a classic men's suit. She had a sixties hairstyle. Brilliantly performing the song "Broken vows", she went to the next stage of the show. Together with Sergienko, Sevil Velieva and Olga Oleinikova participated in knockouts. Olga and Ksana remained in the show, while Sevil came to leave. The performance in the quarterfinals brought the vocalist passage to the next round. She sang the song "Beat it".

Personal life

The singer met her boyfriend Vitaly in America. Surprisingly, he is also Russian. He supports Xana during all her performances. While Sergienko was on the Russian television project "Voice", Vitaly was worried, wrote instructions and creative prayers, chose the right words for Ksana to help her cope with her excitement. Vitaly is a businessman, his company manufactures and sells furniture. According to the singer, she and her young man are completely different in character, which most likely makes their relationship harmonious. Sergienko does not rule out that he may well continue his performances in Moscow, having moved there to live.

Singer Oksana Sergienko became famous after enchanting performances in the television project "Just Like It", where she parodied celebrities. Each of her numbers is a show within a show. Xana manages to imitate any artist incredibly accurately, regardless of their gender, age and appearance.

There was a small incident connected with Alexander Marshal. They sang in a duet, and the host said father and daughter. In fact, there are no family ties, much to the regret of the Internet public.

The girl performs alternative rock, but easily "trying on" other genres and stage images: Sergienko's repertoire includes hits by Lara Fabian, Irina Allegrova and Freddie Mercury.

Oksana Sergienko was born in the provincial Ukrainian town of Mirgorod, Poltava region in 1984. Ksana's mother noticed the girl's singing talent early: the baby made her debut on the kindergarten "stage" at the age of 3. At 6, parents took their daughter to a music school, and a couple of years later Ksana Sergienko soloed in the pride of Mirgorod - the children's group "Rodnichok".

The dream of the 12-year-old vocalist to perform on local television was realized by her mother: the woman spent all the accumulated funds to pay for the studio recording of the song. Even then, my mother understood that this was an investment in the future of her daughter.

The calculation turned out to be correct: after the show on the local TV channel, the sonorous girl was noticed. Since then, she has become a regular participant in various festivals and competitions, where she invariably occupies a leading position. Ksana Sergienko is regularly invited to all regional concerts. She often visits Kyiv.

A resounding victory awaited Sergienko the following year after the show on television: the singer was sent to Romania to participate in an international competition called "The Little Prince". Mirgorod talent brought home a prize for the first place.

Musical career

Best of the day

In the 4th year of college, Ksana Sergienko, having heard that a casting is being held in Moscow for the TV show "People's Artist", comes to the capital and goes through several stages. But during this period, the vocalist receives an offer to work in America. The young singer fearlessly goes to a distant and foreign country. Far from her mother and homeland, the girl had a hard time, but the promised prospects seemed very tempting to Ksana.

The reality turned out to be much more prosaic than the promised "mountains of gold". Instead of performing in Broadway shows, the young performer sang for visitors to inexpensive restaurants and bars. At the same time, the girl had to learn the language. For several years, Ksana Sergienko sang in the popular New York cabaret club Rasputin, but Sergienko refused to return home without a victory, as was the case in childhood and adolescence.

In 2009, Sergienko was lucky: the British label Lizard King Records offered Ksana to sign a contract. The singer signed and began performing at concerts as a member of the Oxzana Band. This period of Oksana's creative biography can be traced on the Twitter page, registered in New York in November 2009.

A few years later, having finally settled down in the USA, the singer recorded her debut album. And Ksana Sergienko closely monitored all competitions and shows for young performers, planning not to miss the chance and become famous. And in 2014, life brings her two such chances at once.

At the qualifying round for the third season of The Voice, Xana sang Freddie Mercury's hit "Show Must Go On", captivating the jury with the power of her voice and manner of performance. The girl was compared with Nargiz Zakirova, a participant in the second season of the show, who performed this song in the finale of the Voice. Both singers prefer alternative rock.

At the “blind” audition in Moscow, four members of the jury turned to the Ukrainian-American performer, who soulfully sang the song “Why” by Annie Lennox. In an interview, the girl admitted that before participating in the project, she thought about which of the mentors to choose, but did not decide. Sergienko made up her mind at the last moment, choosing the team of Dima Bilan.

According to Alexander Gradsky, Sergienko sang in such a way that "it was a shame not to turn around."

The singer managed to impress the mentors and the audience in every round. At the knockout stage, Ksana Sergienko made a double bet: on vocals and appearance. Dressed in a classic men's suit, with a hairstyle in the style of the 60s, a slender girl was remembered by the fans of the project for a long time. With a height of 1.68 meters, Xana weighs 55 kilograms.

At the knockout stage, Sergienko sang Lara Fabian's hit "Broken vows" and stayed on the project. Her rival Sevil Veliyeva had to leave.
