How many people with disabilities achieve great success in their careers? And now you can safely discard at least half of those who were able to climb to the top from among them. One of these is Yulia Samoilova. It is hardly appropriate to talk about luck or luck here, because what this girl did is not a miracle, but the result of hard work on herself, and, of course, talent. But in order to perform on stage in front of an audience of thousands, Yulia had to overcome many fears and complexes.
The girl wanted to be seen as a talented performer, and not as a miserable disabled person who received applause only because she decided to go on stage. I must say that she succeeded and now the whole country knows about her and is proud of Yulia.
Height, weight, age. How old is Yulia Samoilova
As soon as the young girl began to gain popularity, rumors immediately spread about her height, weight, age. How old is Yulia Samoilova? She turned 29 this year. There is no data on the height and weight of the girl. No one for sure was interested in what parameters a disabled girl has.
Today, Yulia Samoilova (photos in her youth and now almost do not differ) is very popular, but many prophesy that the peak of the singer's fame is yet to come. One cannot but agree with this, because all the Eurovision participants automatically attract the views and attention of millions of compatriots. In the last year, Yulia was not allowed to compete in Ukraine for political reasons, but this year she will definitely get there.
Biography and personal life of Yulia Samoilova
Since the girl woke up famous, everyone is interested in the biography and personal life of Yulia Samoilova. The singer was born in Ukhta (Komi Republic), in a working-class family. Mother - Margarita Samoilova, father - Oleg Samoilov. As the girl's parents say, she was born healthy, and the illness that made her disabled caught Yulia later.
Despite all the difficulties that disabled children often face, Yulia went to a regular school, despite the ridicule of children. It was hard, but also instructive. The girl did not want to feel flawed, wanting to gain knowledge in a regular school.
Everything that Yulia Samoilova faced in her childhood and youth made her stronger, she became independent and stubborn, which helped her achieve good results in her career.
Of course, Yulia did not dream that the girl would be able to perform on stage with popular Russian singers. The first enthusiasm for vocals was still at children's matinees, since that time Julia began to study vocals with her mother, and later with a teacher.
In her youth, Yulia Samoilova often sang at discos, won prizes at song contests in the region. 10 years ago, the girl also managed to lead a group that lasted two years.
The first and main step of Yulia in show business was participation in the song TV project "Factor A". Then, she managed to conquer the jury and touch the audience with a gentle performance of the composition "Prayer". At the end of the project, Yulia took second place and received the Alla Pugacheva prize.
In 2017, Yulia Samoilova was supposed to perform at the Eurovision Song Contest, but due to political differences between countries, the girl was banned from entering Ukraine. In the same year, Yulia Samoilova will go to the international competition, only with a different song.
Although it is difficult for people with disabilities to arrange their personal lives, but this is not about today's heroine. Yulia Samoilova is the wife of Alexei Taran.
Family and children of Yulia Samoilova
The network often flashes news on the topic "Family and children of Yulia Samoilova." As you know, the girl leads her own vlog, in which you can see how the everyday life of a rising star goes. It was from the vlog that fans of creativity learned that she became the godmother for the baby of her friends. Unfortunately, the girl cannot have her own children.
In general, the family of Yulia Samoilova consists of her parents, husband and cousin, who turned out to be the notorious Oksana Samoilova, model and wife of the popular Dzhigan. Whether Oksana keeps in touch with her relative Yulia is unknown.
Yulia's mother worked in the service sector, and her father was a miner.
According to the singer herself, now a whole team has also become her family, which is preparing her to participate in Eurovision 2018.
Husband of Yulia Samoilova - Alexey Taran
The husband of the wheelchair-bound singer attracts a lot of attention. The first and only husband of Yulia Samoilova is Alexei Taran. Usually, girls with disabilities do not bathe in male attention, and therefore, they do not sort out offers. This is definitely not an option for Yulia, who gained self-confidence over time. The girl met a guy on a social network without reporting her disability. When meeting in reality, the guy was not scared away by the sight of Yulia. But this was only the beginning of the trials that she prepared for her chosen one. As the girl herself admits, due to her bad character, she repeatedly tested the man for strength, and he steadfastly endured Julia's whims, thanks to which he received love and reciprocity.
To this day, Julia is surprised at their union with Alexei, because they have little in common, apparently, a simple law played a role here: “Opposites attract!”.
Illness of Yulia Samoilova - why is she in a chair
As soon as the girl went on stage, they immediately began to wonder what kind of illness Yulia Samoilova was - why was she in the chair? According to the singer, she was born completely healthy, but with the disease gene. She could have lived a normal life with the Werding-Hoffmann gene for spinal amyotrophy, but the polio shot had dire consequences.
It was vaccination that became the impetus for the fact that at the age of 13 Yulia received a disability (the first group). This is a terrible disease that forever chained the girl to a wheelchair, but did not break her spirit. Nevertheless, despite all the obstacles that Yulia has to overcome on her way, she not only did not give up, she spread her wings and flies towards her dream.
Yulia Samoilova song for Eurovision 2018
Yulia Samoilova's song at Eurovision 2018 made a lot of noise. Some consider the girl not talented enough to participate in such a large-scale song contest from Russia. Someone suspects that the country is using the singer's limited opportunities to take first place in the competition. Nevertheless, most of the listeners approved of the song with which the girl will go to represent the country in Portugal this year.
Yulia Samoilova will represent Russia at the Eurovision Song Contest. She was supposed to fight for victory last year, but the Ukrainian authorities banned her from entering the territory of their country. Since the competition was held in Kyiv, even the founders of the event itself could not influence the situation.
Relatives and just those who were not indifferent to her situation helped Yulia to survive this and other difficult events. Who influenced the life and fate of Yulia - we will find out right now.
Julia's husband Alexei Taran
After an unsuccessful vaccination (according to the singer's relatives), Yulia Samoilova became a disabled person of the first group, she developed spinal amyotrophy. But thanks to her strong character and determination, Yulia did not lose faith in herself and continued to do what she loved, in which she eventually succeeded.
Husband Alexei Taran also had a considerable influence on her. The girl met him through the Internet.
“Actually, at first I didn’t like him, and I thought that we would be nothing more than just friends!” - the singer said in one of her interviews.
But everything turned out not at all the way Samoilova could have imagined. She honestly admits that at first she did not behave very nicely: she was capricious, she constantly didn’t like something, but Alexei was persistent and endured all the quirks. He became a reliable support for her and helps to cope with all the difficulties. By the way, administrative issues in Yulia's work are also Alexei's business.
They have been together for the ninth year, but have been officially married for a little over three years. They didn’t have a wedding as such, but they are planning a magnificent celebration a little later.
Alla Borisovna is known for supporting young talented musicians and helping them on their way to success as best they can.
When Julia came to "Factor A" and first appeared on the stage of the show, Alla Pugacheva, who was on the jury, immediately warned the girl: "Do not think that we will give you a discount for the stroller." Julia was not offended at all, because she herself also believes that indulgence is the worst help in relation to people with disabilities. But after such an introduction by the Primadonna, the singer did not expect that at the end of the song Pugacheva would rise from her chair and applaud with tears in her eyes.
Alla Borisovna also appreciated Yulia's composing talent, even bought one of her songs.
During the difficult situation before Eurovision in 2017, Pugacheva also did not stand aside and supported Yulia.
“Many thought that the choice of such a participant from Russia was a provocation. But what is the provocation? Does she not have the right to enter this competition? She is a talented singer and composer and can take part if the organizers of the competition have nothing against it, ”Prima Donna told the Dozhd channel.
Gosha Kutsenko also supported Yulia and sang a duet with her.
The singer said that she wrote the song and initially saw Gosha Kutsenko in it, and he, in turn, was not opposed to participating in such a small project. True, the song seemed sad to the actor (and singer), and he asked to remake the words, but in the end everything was left in its original form, finding another way out of the situation.
“Gosha listened to the song and said that it was too “cargo” - the text had to be redone. My husband and I tried this and that, but the alternatives did not work, this text seemed to have become attached to the song. As a result, it remained the same, but was “highlighted” with a competent New Year’s arrangement by Ruslan Lukyanov,” Yulia said in an interview with StarHit.
Oksana Samoilova and Djigan
Few people know that Dzhigan's wife is Yulia Samoilova's cousin. Until the age of 15, the girls grew up together and for some time even lived in the same house. Later, Oksana left for Moscow, where she met Dzhigan.
Despite family ties, Yulia does not want anyone to think that Dzhigan is helping her in her career. Even when the question arose about a serious expensive operation, Yulia did not consider it right to turn to her sister for help, but collected the necessary amount herself.
However, the girls are on good terms. Oksana is proud of her sister, as she said in her video message, which was broadcast on the program “Let them talk” with the participation of the singer.
“Julia wanted to sing all her life, but I didn’t want anything. (Laughs.) We were punished in the same way, scolded in the same way, that is, our parents did not make any difference between us. She grew up like a completely normal child. Perhaps because of this, what is happening now is happening. We are proud and happy. Julia wanted to sing all her life and all her life she aspired to this (to participate in Eurovision. - Approx. ed.), ”Oksana shared.
There is little time left before Eurovision, now Yulia has thrown all her strength into preparing for the performance and rehearsing the number. They say that some countries have already offered Yulia to come to them with a performance, music lovers from different parts of the Earth already want to meet her.
Recall that the Eurovision semi-finals will be held in Lisbon on May 8 and 10, and the final on May 12. Julia Samoilova will come with the song I Won't Break.
