Biography of the scandalous comedian Shcherbakov
Alexey Shcherbakov first saw the light in the city of Zelenograd. This happened in December 1988. Lesha was still a little boy when his family noticed that he had a great sense of humor. When the guy grew up, he always became the life of any company thanks to his sparkling jokes.
However, as a schoolboy, Shcherbakov showed not only humorous talent. The guy was actively involved in sports, in particular martial arts. The comedian admitted that he watched all the films starring Steven Seagal, Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan. Alexey also mastered percussion instruments and guitar, and played in one of the local rock bands. But that's not all.
Soon acrobatics and parkour were added to the young man's hobbies . He created a group of parkour athletes with two friends, and, according to the comedian himself, conquered more than two dozen high-rise buildings. The now famous singer Sergei Lazarev was also active in sports as a child.
Alexey Shcherbakov
After graduating from school, Shcherbakov went to the capital to receive higher education. However, his studies did not stop the comedian from doing what he loved most.
Next in his biography was military service, which became a real school of life. During his service, the young man jumped with a parachute 14 times. Shcherbakov also stated that his Zelenograd roots helped him during his service - no one bothered him, but Muscovites were not particularly favored there.
When Alexey returned, he immediately began looking for work, because he needed to earn money. As a result, he got a job in two places - combining work at a construction site and in the subway.
early years
The future stand-up comedian was born on December 15, 1988. His small homeland is Zelenograd near Moscow. Alexey Shcherbakov’s family can be called quite ordinary. His mother is an accountant. The father was a policeman. The boy grew up to be a well-rounded personality. Among other things, he was interested in music and even performed as part of a rock band. After graduating from school, the young man wanted to enter the theater school, but his family dissuaded him. Then he chose the University of Management, located in the Russian capital. Subsequently, the guy also managed to serve in the army.
For some time, Alexey had to work two jobs at once. During the day, he worked on conducting electricity in underground parking lots at construction sites. At night, the young man worked as an installer in the Moscow metro. A friend brought him there.
First, Alexey quit his day job. Then he had to say goodbye to the metro. Not least of all, this happened due to problems with wages.
Wife – Elena
The personal life of comedian Alexei Shcherbakov was simply wonderful. He is married to a beautiful girl whose name is Elena. However, in order to achieve the beauty’s favor, the young man had to work hard. Alexey admitted that he had been in love with Lena since the 8th grade of school - she studied in a parallel class. However, then the girl was dating another guy and did not pay attention to Shcherbakov. To be closer to his beloved, Alexey even tried to enroll in the same university with her. However, he failed the exams and their paths diverged for a while.
With my wife
A year later they met by chance on the road. Alexey was going on business in his old Skoda, and Elena was driving a brand new Opel, which her father gave her. That same evening they met in an informal setting, walked and talked. After this, the young people did not see each other again for about a year. This relationship, in the “a couple of meetings a year” format, continued for several years. Shcherbakov admits that during this period of time he had other women, but he did not start a serious relationship - he still hoped that everything would work out for him with Elena, the girl he truly loved.
Alexey said that Lena seemed to feel the moments when he was going on a date with someone else. Suddenly she sent me a message inviting me to go for a walk. Shcherbakov canceled everything and hurried to see his beloved.
A truly serious relationship between Alexei and Elena began when he returned from the army.
In 2011, the loving couple got married, and soon there was an addition . His wife gave birth to a son for Alexei, who was named Yegor.
Despite the fact that Shcherbakov has an exceptional sense of humor, and he cannot imagine his life without jokes, he tries to raise his son in severity. Just as his parents raised him in their time. And a few years ago, the comedian became a father for the second time, Lena gave him another son. They named him Daniel. By the way, a photo of Shcherbakov’s wife can be seen on her Instagram page. Popular artist Mikhail Galustyan also met his future wife in his youth; their marriage is already more than 10 years old.
It is obvious that Alexey has the deepest and most tender feelings for his wife. He once admitted that he missed Elena a lot when he didn’t see her for a long time. And when he looks at her, he feels the same inner awe that he experienced as a boy. Alexey Shcherbakov tries to spend his free time with his wife and children. The man is extremely happy that he is raising two sons from the woman he loves. They live in the apartment where Alexey himself grew up. The eldest son attends the school where his dad studied, and the youngest is still in kindergarten.
Opinions
I'll be honest. I watch all Dudya's episodes. Almost all the way to the end. I get a kind of pleasure from this and watch with interest what note the snake charmer, who has now become, perhaps, the main liberal propagandist, will play on his flute this time.
It is sometimes difficult for adults to believe that a schoolchild or even a student can watch the program “Vdud” or “Let’s Talk?”, or Danila Poperechny’s blog and wake up with a headache the next day. Every week, young guys are indoctrinated with certain sentiments and values under the guise that YouTube is a free platform, so there is an opportunity to find out the truth without cuts.
The last guest of Yuri Dud was the star of Stand Up Club No. 1 Alexander Dolgopolov - a young, promising, progressive, autistic comedian.
After harmless conversations about how difficult it is to perform at karaoke and why Russian television is not ready to accept stand-up comedians with due respect, we moved on to the topic of Dolgopolov’s female alter egos, which he does brilliantly.
Well, on the built platform they began to talk about “important” things, for example, about the fact that our society is very chauvinistic and it is extremely difficult for people like Dolgopolov to be in it, who would like more freedom, the opportunity to wear a woman’s dress, if necessary, etc.
In general, there is too much masculinity and tension in our society and vulnerable groups of the population feel uncomfortable. Then, of course, we talked about sexual minorities, transsexuals, even women and children fell into the category of the vulnerable. Well, it couldn’t do without feminists: “Every self-respecting person should support feminists in their fight for the rights of minorities.” The comedian uses feminists and believes that if “you are angry at feminists, most likely you are a very stupid person.”
Dud listened so intently that he forgot about the interview and simply began listening to the stand-up comedian’s heart-warming monologue.
For example, the comedian admitted that if there was no comedy in his life, he would most likely do very terrible things. We also talked about bipolar disorder. Joker, no less: “I thought my life was a tragedy, and my life was a comedy.”
Dud woke up briefly (there was no need to talk before this, since all the main work was done without his participation) and asked about Dolgopolov’s sharply political jokes, in particular about harsh jokes about Putin. The comedian happily said that now the curtain has fallen and everyone is joking about politics, about the regime, and if they didn’t laugh at such jokes before, now they are trending. The comedian also noted that no one is persecuted for these jokes - at least something good.
Dolgopolov would not be Dolgopolov if he had not discussed threesome sex in an interview. The fact is that the comedian and his ex (!) wife practiced a similar life, which he spoke about in detail.
"You can't lose someone because they don't belong to you."
Dud admitted that in a threesome he was always scared (no, don’t think about it, not the moral side of the issue) that there wouldn’t be enough for everyone. I mean two. But it turned out that this was not a problem. Everyone there helps each other and everything is fine. True, the progressive comedian is not ready for a threesome with a man. The composition of the interview was verified to the smallest detail, so then the guys discussed the divorce from their wife. They broke up! Who would have guessed. True, a little later we learn that the sex giant Dolgopolov is indifferent to sex and engages in it very rarely. So much talk about sex - and such offensive indifference.
Then my favorite section continued, which is called “In our society.” Throughout the interview, the comedian begins every second thought with this phrase.
In our society, oh, in our society, oh, oh this society, but in our society!
“In our society, sex is an act of possession,” the young Freud philosophizes. Women are considered property in our society and blah blah blah. I even compared it with the Middle Ages.
Another thing is our noble husband, who will never object if his significant other sleeps with someone else, because the woman is not his thing. It's simple.
An ideal client for broadcasting Dudya's liberal ideas.
It turns out that Dolgopolov thinks that he is the subject of humor, and he, with all his complexes and phobias, is the object. Funny.
Like the icing on the cake, Dolgopolov’s confession that he can’t stand comedian Alexei Shcherbakov.
“Alexey Shcherbakov is the materialized prejudices that I would like to fight as a comedian and as a person... that prevent me from living.”
Will explain. Alexey Shcherbakov is a simple guy from Zelenograd who served in the special forces, got married, has two children and is now successfully doing stand-up. Machismo as it is, its living embodiment. Horror, and that's all. It is not surprising that Dolgopolov’s subtle and tolerant nature cannot stomach him.
And here the conclusion arises.
A young, progressive, free (in the broadest sense of the word) defender of gays, lesbians, feminists, simply wounded and weak people, will endlessly, like a wounded parrot, talk about the fact that in our medieval society everything is not as it should be. A fighter against the norm.
Moreover, he himself will never show the tolerance that he so zealously calls for in the most popular YouTube program.
He does not want and cannot understand “our society,” although this is precisely the work of a comedian, and a simple average guy from Russia, who served in the army, got a job, got married, fathered children and will break anyone for his beloved woman, causes Dolgopolov fear and horror. And he will never be tolerant of this guy.
He will mock him in his jokes, he will say that all his problems are because of this guy, he will complain about this guy Dudu, because it is because of this guy that we have such a regime and such a backward country.
Shcherbakov, it’s all your fault!
Alexey's height and age
The young man does not forget to play sports and leads a healthy lifestyle. Shcherbakov does not smoke, and is very careful about alcohol. All this allows him to look good (his height is 180 cm and his weight is 80 kg). And so good that some fans of his talent don’t even know how old he is. Many people think that Shcherbakov is not yet thirty. However, Alexey has already crossed this mark. In December 2020, the comedian will turn 32 years old.

Show with Nurlan Saburov
At the end of 2020, the famous journalist Yuri Dud interviewed Kazakh comedian Nurlan Saburov. The key topic was the discussion of the popular humorous project “What Happened Next,” in which Saburov and four other comedians (including Shcherbakov) are doing their best to make fun of a studio guest who tells ridiculous stories from his life.
Dud asked Nurlan if Alexey was really as narrow-minded as he seemed at first glance.
Soon Shcherbakov recalled this question to Dudu and beautifully ridiculed him . After this, viewers literally bombarded Yuri with comments asking him to do an interview with Shcherbakov. The journalist satisfied the interest of Internet users and talked with the comedian.
Among other topics, Dud touched on the show with Nurlan Saburov, and asked why the comedians failed the show with Garik Martirosyan. Then the comedians failed to make fun of Garik, and Martirosyan himself did not miss the opportunity to poke fun at Shcherbakov and company.
Alexey admitted that they really couldn’t do anything with Garik. The comedian also noted that they were warned in advance that Martirosyan had a very strong aura.
Let us remind you that Alexey received a pass to the big world of stand up after participating in the TV show “Comedy Battle”. This was in 2012.
Humor and television
Shcherbakov first appeared on television screens in the humorous show “Crazy Beautiful,” which aired on the Muz-TV channel in the fall of 2011.
Alexey Shcherbakov loves to read
In the summer of 2012, the guy took part in the qualifying round of the first season of the comedy show “Comedy Battle”. The contestant’s talent was assessed by Garik Martirosyan, Semyon Slepakov and Garik Kharlamov, who voted against Alexey’s continued participation (he performed under the pseudonym “Lyokha”) in the show, although many of the comedian’s jokes seemed successful to both the judges and the audience.

In the spring of 2013, Alexey again tried his hand at the new season of the show “Comedy Battle. Without Borders". This time, Kharlamov was replaced on the jury by Sergei Svetlakov, who “saved” the young participant by letting him through to the next stage of the competition. And although the novice comedian did not manage to reach the finals - Shcherbakov was not good at improvisation - many viewers remembered and fell in love with the comedian Lyokha.

Success went side by side with tragedy. The night before the first recording for the new season, Alexei’s father died of a mini-stroke. He wanted to give up filming, but his mother stopped him, understanding that his son had been working toward this all his life. He also understood that the creators of Comedy Battle had given him a second chance, but there would be no third attempt. And the constant lack of money (by that time Shcherbakov had already become a father, and now his mother was left without the support of her husband) and hard work in the metro would sooner or later destroy him morally and physically.
In 2020, Alexey began to actively storm the “Open Microphone” section of the comedy show “Stand Up,” in which anyone could perform in front of the public. The performance, dedicated to ridiculous human and animal names, military service and friends, made the audience hold their stomachs with laughter, and the very next year the comedian was included in the main cast of the project.
Alexey Shcherbakov Stand Up. Fragment In his monologues, Shcherbakov talks about everyday things: raising a small child, relationships in the family, relationships with his wife, his difficult work - many viewers admit that the artist’s humor is close and understandable to them.
Shcherbakov’s performances can be watched and listened to in the new club from the Stand Up stars on TNT “Standup Store Moscow”, which opened in the fall of 2020. The permanent host of the popular comedian show is Kirill Seattleov, a participant in the 3rd season of “Comedy Battle” and “Central Microphone” on STS.

Together with his Stand-Up colleague, musical comedian Ivan Abramov, Shcherbakov came up with the Closed Microphone concert program, which premiered on February 11, 2020.
Alexey Shcherbakov against coronavirus
In April 2020, stand-up comedians from the TNT channel visited Azamat Musagaliev’s program. Before this, all participants in the action thoroughly washed their hands, stocked up on antiseptics and personal protective equipment. Alexey Shcherbakov spoke colorfully about all the “delights” of distance learning. The video has already gained several million views on Youtube.
With son
Now the comedian continues to do his favorite thing, that is, joke professionally. The main theme of his stand-up performances is family and education. However, in his free moments, Alexey Shcherbakov does not forget to spend time with his wife and children, photos of which can be found on the Internet.
Personal life of Alexey Shcherbakov, wife and children
Alexey met his future wife at school. Elena studied in a parallel class with him. According to Shcherbakov himself, he has loved her since he was 15 years old. Our hero made several attempts to hit on the girl, but they never developed a serious relationship. After school, Alexey, following his love, tries to enter the same Academy of Business Administration, but unlike his future wife, he does not pass the competition. Young people interrupt communication, but for a long time they meet once a year to chat in the evening and part until the next chance meeting.
After returning from the army, Alexey achieved his goal and in 2011 Elena married him. Since then, the young people have lived in peace and harmony and raised two sons. In an interview with Dudu, Shcherbakov speaks with tenderness that amazed most viewers about his wife, that he is a monogamist and never cheats on her. Although, in fairness, it is worth noting that in his monologues, Alexey often portrays his half in not the best light. Although here, of course, it is worth remembering that Lyokha, who reads these monologues, and Alexey Shcherbakov himself are not exactly the same person.
