Lubov Uspenskaya's country house of 16 rooms, 8 bathrooms and a swimming pool, stunning in its splendor and scope, opened its doors to journalists. The hostess is proud of her new home and believes that there is nothing superfluous here, and every room, every detail in the interior is thought out by her personally...
Hall with 8-meter ceilings
8-meter ceilings are the main element of a large and very bright room. Huge full-height windows provide natural light even in winter, when it is so lacking. Curtains, consisting of several layers of tulle, are controlled using a miniature remote control.
Light walls, upholstered furniture, even a table with flowers in a transparent and rather expensive vase create an atmosphere of comfort as soon as a person enters the house.
A massive crystal chandelier, resembling a crown, hangs from the ceiling. The singer ordered both the chandelier and the curtains in Italy. On the other side of the hall there is a snow-white piano, at which Lyuba's daughter spends a lot of time, and a luxurious chair without a back is chosen to match it.
Now the hall plays the role of a living room, but Uspenskaya plans to make a fireplace room here in the near future. The fireplace has already been bought, so it's up to the small - an easy alteration for a perfect "fit" into the overall interior.
"Black room" or a dining room with secrets?
It is difficult to say why Love gave such a mysterious name to the dining room. In the "Black Room" light furniture is a stunning set consisting of a table and chairs made of solid wood. The legs of the items in the set are inlaid with colored crystal. The TV, located on the wall, is also decorated with a frame to match the interior, in fact, like all plasma TVs in the singer's house.
From the "Black Room" you can immediately get into a cozy bar, and very soon a wine cellar will appear nearby - only the decoration remains.
The storage is already fully equipped.
On the floor, handmade parquet with applied drawings of famous wine brands.
The cellar maintains the optimum temperature for storing wine...
Recreation area on the ground floor
The basement floor is a recreation area, decorated with original frescoes with forest motifs. In the future, the singer plans to equip a karaoke bar here.
Lyubov Uspenskaya even has her own spa at home.
Which is equipped with a special sink for washing your hair, a huge mirror and a hairdressing chair, a manicure stand, a massage table that transforms into a pedicure chair.
According to the singer, having professional equipment at home can save a lot of time.
You can climb the white marble staircase to the second floor, and here...
“I myself chose stone, wood and other finishing materials, traveling the world, ordering appliances and decorative elements. I found every doorknob, bolt and screw on my own!”
What is special about the second floor?
Lyubov Uspenskaya decided to go against the advice and sound logic. On the second floor of her country house there are not bedrooms and guest rooms, as is usually the case with most people, but ... a pool.
The original interior and very beautiful design of the pool allow you to forget about your daily business and enjoy swimming in clear cool water.
Perfectly matched mosaic of blue, white and blue tones, "smooth" steps, 6 tons of water...
There are sconces on the walls with brown brickwork, chandeliers hang from the ceiling, the sun shines through the huge windows...
Warm, light, cozy, and what else is needed in order to get rid of negativity and fatigue at the end of the working day?
Bedroom with leather floor...
The master bedroom is the centerpiece of the home. The first thing guests notice is the floor. Each parquet board is covered with natural light leather. You can walk along the leather floor to the dressing room, which consists of several zones (a pharmacy cabinet, a corner of gifts from fans and jewelry, a corner where all the singer's music awards are stored) and to the bathroom. And, of course, there are a lot of closets for clothes, where Lyubov Uspenskaya keeps outfits for performances, designer dresses and suits for going out, casual clothes.
Dog bedroom - not a booth - a room!
Next to the bedroom of the mistress of the house is another room that was "given away" to a Yorkshire terrier named Frankie. In the bedroom, the dog has its own huge bed and wardrobe, which stores designer dog jackets and coats, shoes and socks...
Frankie even has her own private closet, where the letter "F" was laid out on the mosaic wall - the initial of the four-legged pet. There is also his own bathroom, specially equipped for the comfortable bathing of the dog, a dressing table where cosmetics for dogs are stored, his personal toothbrush and toothpaste. And also a sofa on which Frankie likes to relax and "go crazy" while they do his hair.
Lyubov Uspenskaya was born on February 24, 1954 in Kyiv. Mother, Elena Chaika, died in childbirth. Until the age of five, she was raised by her grandmother, and then her father, director of the Kyiv factory of household appliances, remarried, and they began to live with their stepmother. The family saw in their girl a music school teacher or a choir conductor. This is probably why, in early childhood, the father began to teach his daughter how to play the piano on his own. Lyubov graduated from a music school and the Kiev Glier Music College. She worked in Kiev, where she recorded with Grigory Balber, the author of the song and album "Podil." When I came to enter a music school, the teachers listened to my piano playing and exclaimed in unison: "Well, he plays normally. It remains only to teach her notes! "But how could I limit myself to studying notes? After the music school - the Kiev Musical College, and then work," recalls Lyubov Uspenskaya.
At the age of seventeen, friends called me to work in the "golden place" - Yerevan.
In 1978, together with her second husband Yuri Uspensky, she emigrated from the USSR and lived in Italy for about a year. Before leaving, friends persuaded Lyuba to emigrate to the United States, convincing her that only there she could realize herself as a singer. Having received permission to enter, Lyuba went to the United States, but her relatives went to live in Canada, where they still live. When Lyubov Uspenskaya first flew into the New York airport, she was ready for any job, but it turned out that many of those who heard her performances in Armenia and the North Caucasus remember her. In the very first days, the singer began to receive offers to perform in Russian restaurants. The owner of the restaurant "Sadko" was the most efficient. While his competitors greeted the singer, he put the "star of Armenia" in a car and took him to a Brooklyn hotel. The very next day, she performed in the hall of the Sadko restaurant in New York, packed to capacity. After working in the restaurant for some time, Lyuba was able to record an album with her own money, which was almost impossible to do in the Soviet Union. Also, Willy Tokarev wrote several songs specially for Lyuba's album, which became popular and are still in her repertoire. At the same time, Lyuba met Mikhail Shufutinsky, and they created the first album, which became the number one album immediately after the release. It was they who glorified the Assumption. And all because, as it seems to the singer, she sang the way she wanted - in her own way, without anyone's dictation. Of course, in a foreign country it was difficult at first. Especially the first five years. After all, there is a completely different language, a different mentality among people. Lyuba left without knowing English, the customs and laws of the United States. But thanks to her stubborn nature, Lyuba managed to learn how to live and create in a foreign country. After several years of living in New York, Ouspenskaya moved to Los Angeles.
The singer, performer of Russian chanson has lived in America for 20 years, but currently lives in Russia. Uspenskaya settled in Moscow. However, she acquired her own housing here only in 2003. She chose a 160-meter apartment in an elite new building on Volokolamsk Highway, not far from the school at the American Embassy, where Uspenskaya's daughter, Tanya Plaksina, studied. Luba ordered a bar counter and all the plumbing from a fashionable design studio in Los Angeles - she has an apartment there. And the very first "acquisition" for Moscow housing was the Yorkshire terrier Frankie. My daughter was educated at an American college, where it is almost impossible for Russians to enter. Great people studied there: Barbara Walters, Yoko Ono, George Lucas. Lyubov Uspenskaya's husband has his own car business in America - a whole factory, they wash cars, repair them, they sell gasoline.
In 2011, the queen of Russian chanson bought a house in Moscow and celebrated a housewarming party in 2013. The 4-storey mansion, with an area of about 1,000 square meters, is located in one of the most elite areas of the Moscow region, not far from Novorizhskoye highway. In such a spacious house, Lyubov Uspenskaya admits, there is enough space for all her many relatives and friends. Daughter Tatyana also moved closer to the mother's wing and now helps her with household chores. One of the attractions of the new mansion is the room of the artist's favorite pet, a dog named Frankie, who not only has his own room, but even a personal bath, where his name is laid out of rhinestones and mosaics. “The house has a lot of beautiful furniture, curtains, up to 8 meters high, lacquered stairs. All this is accompanied by amazingly beautiful lighting. However, my pride is a large Turkish bath. And in the bedroom there are white leather floors,” says the queen of chanson. In addition, the house has a large swimming pool and a luxurious fireplace. Lyubov Uspenskaya takes care of her figure, and in order not to waste time traveling to sports complexes, she decided to equip her own yoga room. it is interesting that the house even has a special room, with a piano, on which Lyubov's daughter, Tanya plays, it is very pleasant for the queen of chanson to wake up to the sounds of the classics. Construction work was completed in May 2013, but, according to Lyubov Zalmanovna, a lot of effort remains to be spent on furnishing the royal home. Designers specially developed the concept of the house, based on the wishes and ideas of the artist. "Modern chic" - this is how the singer describes the style of her mansion. In addition to shirkar apartments, the star has got famous neighbors who also live in the area, such as Valery Meladze and Dana Borisova. However, not everything worked out so perfectly for the artist - she also had to face problems. The star now and then tried to deceive dishonest builders, who, according to the singer, tried to get more money out of her. Lyubov Uspenskaya has long dreamed of her own castle, and, finally, all her wishes came true.
The singer performs in Moscow, St. Petersburg and other cities. He takes part in radio and television programs. Every year he performs at the Chanson of the Year, in the Kremlin. Currently he collaborates with the poetess Regina Lisits and the composer Igor Azarov. Her repertoire is very diverse - the singer performs both old, well-known hits, and many new modern songs. Lyuba is really lucky both in her personal and creative life. She collaborated with many composers, poets and musicians, including Igor Azarov, Regina Lisits, Mikhail Tanich, Sergey Korzhukov, Ilya Reznik, Willy Tokarev, Arkady Ukupnik, and many others. She sang in a duet with Mikhail Shufutinsky ("Lyuba-Lyubonka", "Old Park"), Slava Medyanik ("I'll miss you very much", "I'm on my own, you're on my own", etc.), Alexander Rosenbaum ( "Marusya", "White Clouds"), the group "Shtar" ("Guitar", "Boat", "Another Minute", etc.), Igor Sarukhanov ("Bitter Chocolate", "Invented Love"), as well as with many by other performers.

Description:
This pretty house made of foam blocks has two symmetrical terraces facing on opposite sides: one of them is combined with a porch, and the other can be accessed from the living room, continuing to relax in the fresh air. And above the terraces under the roof overhangs there are large balconies: on one you can watch the sunrise, on the other - to watch the sunset.
Having acquired an additional terrace and two balconies, "Uspenskoe", in comparison with its closest "relative" - the project of the house from foam blocks "Melikhovo", - has lost two bedrooms, which turned it into a very spacious economy class country house for a small family. And the presence of two bathrooms on the first and second floors makes it extremely convenient for both summer and winter living.
In a small technical room adjacent to the bathroom on the ground floor, you can arrange a shower room, a boiler room, or place filters and water treatment tanks in it. It can also accommodate a suspended boiler for the heating system of such a country house. Such boilers operate on both gas and liquid fuels and do not need a separate chimney.
In addition to the Melikhovo project, Uspenskoye makes sense to compare with the projects of country houses made of foam blocks Marfino and Rakhmanovo, which are somewhat larger in area and have a larger number of living rooms.

Ouspenskaya had fun with a black man in her husband's bed
Singer Lyuba Uspenskaya does not like to talk about herself. As written in her biography: dad was in prison, and mom died in childbirth. The girl was raised by her grandmother. The singer does not talk about her three previous husbands, she insists that her fourth husband, Alexander Plaksin, is the love of her life. The media decided to shed light on the past of the queen of chanson.
The secret of the birth of Lyuba Uspenskaya would have remained unsolved if she had not decided to fire all employees, including housekeepers. The scandal erupted because of the press secretary Alina Makova, who dared to tell the singer that her second album was written as if she had a hangover. After that, Uspenskaya fired Alina, and at the same time the rest of the staff, so that information would not leak.
Lyuba lies a lot, - said a friend of the singer Clara. - He says that dad, Zalman Sitsker, was in prison, where he fell seriously ill. The nurse who treated my dad fell in love with him and got pregnant. This is how Luba was born. But, as Lyuba's nephew, Rolan Melandovich, told me, in fact, Uspenskaya was born in Kyiv by a gypsy Elena Chaika, who was imprisoned for theft. Lyuba was born in prison, but the gypsy really died in childbirth. Nobody knows where her grave is. Three years later, Zalman took the girl and brought her to his mother. It is clear that Lyuba does not want the gypsy truth to come out.
This story was hidden from Lyuba herself for a long time. She called her grandmother mother and could not understand why her father also calls her mother.
The complex of the absence of a mother has always lived with me, ”Uspenskaya said. - I felt deprived, inferior. Dad still somehow understood my desire to sing, and all the other relatives said: “Let him learn to play the button accordion!” One thought that I should drag 15 kilos to a music school discouraged all desire.
When the girl was five years old, Sitsker married a second time. Since that time, her stepmother Sarah was engaged in the upbringing of Lyuba.
At the age of 16, I started performing on the stage of the Kyiv restaurant "Jockey," Uspenskaya recalls. - We came there for grandma's birthday, and dad asked me to sing. Everyone liked it. The head of the gypsy orchestra offered me to work for them. I hid from dad for three months that I sing in a restaurant. But soon he found out that I was skipping classes at the Kiev Musical College, lying to the teachers that I had broken my arm. Dad hit me so hard that my throat bled. The parent kept saying: "Sorry!" And I, like Zoya Kosmodemyanskaya: they beat me, but I grow stronger: “I won’t!”
Lyuba USPENSKAYA left Russia with her husband Yuri (left)
And he snapped: “I thought you would be a real musician, but you went to a tavern! I don't care what you do next!" Thus began my independent life. We reconciled after some time, when I began to help the family with money.
Ouspenskaya matured early: money and success on stage turned her head.
Lyuba fell in love with some guy and had an abortion at the age of 16, which she was afraid to admit to her future husband, musician and arranger Viktor Shumilovich, says friend Clara. - She only told her cousin Nina that she was "flying". Instead of lying down after the abortion, Lyuba went to sing in a restaurant the next day. A strong inflammatory process began.
The doctor warned the girl that she might not have children. Lyuba never confessed to her husband, and when she felt the symptoms of pregnancy and the diagnosis was confirmed, she was all glowing with happiness. Alas, Luba had the flu, and, probably, because of this, the twins were born dead. Because of this tragedy, she divorced Viktor Shumilovich.
Marrying for the first time - for Viktor SHUMILOVICH,
Luba put on a white wedding dress
pounded musician
Lyuba met Yuri Uspensky when he was married to another woman. They worked for some time in a Kiev restaurant. Ouspensky at that moment was the administrator of the orchestra. He promised to marry, but was in no hurry to get a divorce, and at the same time arranged scenes of jealousy with assault on the singer.
I had not yet separated from my first husband when this relationship began, ”recalls Ouspenskaya. - Soon I went to work in Yerevan, and we were far from each other. But I thought about Yura every minute.
Ouspensky was in no hurry to get a divorce, while he was jealous, every now and then, having learned about Lyuba's boyfriends, he flew to Yerevan.
Having decided to leave in the early 70s to my father who lived in Canada, I was faced with denunciations, - Uspenskaya is indignant. - I was enrolled in the ranks of unreliable, and I was left without a job. There was money, but I understood that something had to be done. She began to sing at weddings. For two and a half years I was not given permission to leave. Because of the protests in which she participated, she ended up in prison. I understood that if I did not leave, they would destroy me. She hung around at the OVIR, where she met dissidents who were dangerous to the authorities. What just happened: the KGB was chasing me, and they made a hooligan out of me ...
On the beach, Love showed her magnificent forms
Yuri Uspensky, realizing that Lyuba was emigrating, nevertheless took her to the registry office. As the husband of a dissident, he was removed from the leadership of the Ukrainian radio and television orchestra. He was not even taken to the ordinary musicians, but only to the funeral orchestra at the cemetery.
Leaving the USSR in 1978, the Uspenskys stopped for some time in Italy. Lyuba went to work as an assistant to a salesman who sold pottery. Soon she was offered to sing in a restaurant, and then she fulfilled her old dream - she moved to the USA.
Lyuba sang at the Sadko restaurant on Brighton Beach, says Clara. - Yuri sat on her neck, because he did not have a job. At the same time, in fits of jealousy, he sometimes beat her. Lyuba had to ask the owner of the restaurant to take her husband as a manager.
She broke up with Ouspensky because of an affair with a young boy named Vladimir. Yuri soon married, became the father of two children and continues to work in a restaurant.
Ouspensky wanted to forbid her to bear his last name, Clara claims. - He said that she dishonored him with her behavior. Emigrants told how Lyuba behaved in the first years. If there is no audience in the hall, she could go on stage and, spreading her legs, show that she is without underwear: the glory of Sharon Stone haunted her. She had to leave the Sadko restaurant because of Mikhail Shufutinsky, who survived her from there. Lyuba was offended by him for a long time.
Lost my diamond ring
Ouspenskaya met her third husband in a Kiev restaurant. Married Vladimir Franz suggested that young Lyuba take off his wedding ring from his finger, saying that in this case she would definitely marry him. Then Lyuba failed to do this: the legal wife returned and took her husband to the other end of the restaurant, away from sin.
Lyuba told me that she met the same Franz eight years later in New York, Clara recalls. - According to Luba, Franz was engaged in gold and oil mining in Africa. He spoiled her. Once gave a diamond ring, and she lost it in the sand on the beach. Bad sign...
Soon Uspenskaya was offered to work at the Arbat restaurant in Los Angeles, and she readily agreed. There she met Alexander Plaksin. Meeting him changed her life. Lyuba once again fell in love and divorced Franz.
Lyuba said that on the second day of their date, he gave her the same convertible, and on the third he said that he wanted a child from her, ”Klara said. - Lyuba was afraid that because of their age, they might have a down. But everything worked out: Tanya was born healthy. Although Lyuba insists that Plaksin is her destiny, he shakes her nerves. Lyuba gave her husband a million dollars for business in America. He organized a car wash "CarWash", the business did not go, and now Lyuba is saving him. The husband, you know, is such a "sofa recliner". Even when she bought a house in the suburbs, he retired. Impractical and grumpy person. When he drinks, he starts yelling obscenities at her.
Plaksin had a hard time with Lyuba. Accustomed to the status of a star, she demanded increased attention.
Somehow they lay on a beach in the USA. Lyuba, seeing that her husband was looking at the sunbathing girl, took off her bra, and all the men began to stare at her magnificent breasts. Plaksin slapped her, there was a scandal.

The dog avenged the mistress
The queen of Russian chanson, Lyubov Uspenskaya, has finally moved into her own country house. The 4-storey mansion is located in one of the most elite areas of the Moscow region, not far from Novorizhskoye highway. I would like to note that in addition to shirkar apartments, the star also acquired famous neighbors who also live in this area.
The singer proudly talks about her palace with a total area of about a thousand square meters. In such a spacious house, Lyubov Uspenskaya admits, there is enough space for all her many relatives and friends. Daughter Tatyana also moved closer to the mother's wing and now helps her with household chores.
The house is so big and spacious that there is enough space for everyone. My acquaintances, friends and relatives can find a corner for themselves in it and be sure that there they will be able to take care of themselves and their business, without being distracted by anything, - the singer shared her joy. - My daughter, for example, constantly plays the piano. Imagine, I wake up to the sound of classical music.
One of the attractions of the new mansion is the room of the artist's favorite pet, a dog named Frankie, who even has his own bathroom, where his name is laid out of rhinestones and mosaics. In addition, the house has a large swimming pool and a luxurious fireplace. Lyubov Uspenskaya takes care of her figure, and in order not to waste time traveling to sports complexes, she decided to equip her own yoga room.
Construction work was completed in May 2013, but, according to Lyubov Zalmanovna, a lot of effort remains to be spent on furnishing the royal home. Designers specially developed the concept of the house, based on the wishes and ideas of the artist. "Modern chic" - this is how the singer describes the style of her mansion.
The house has a lot of beautiful furniture, curtains, up to 8 meters high, lacquered stairs. All this is accompanied by amazingly beautiful lighting. However, my pride is a large Turkish bath. And in the bedroom - white leather floors, - says the queen of chanson.
Lyubov Uspenskaya admits that she has long dreamed of living in nature, gardening and growing lilacs, currants and strawberries. But before the star had to be content with only an apartment in the center of Moscow, where the air was smoky with the exhaust gases of cars. But now the diva feels like a truly happy woman and says that from the first days of her life she had to settle in the village.
However, not everything worked out so perfectly for the artist - she also had to face problems. The star now and then tried to deceive dishonest builders, who, according to the singer, tried to get more money out of her.
Lyubov Uspenskaya plans to celebrate the New Year 2014 surrounded by her family exactly there - outside the city in her own house, where for the first time in her life she will be able to put a blue spruce in the yard and decorate it with her own hands.
