Brief biography of the singer
Zara was born in Leningrad and grew up in a large, friendly family. Her father, a candidate of physical and mathematical sciences, worked in the field of mechanical engineering, her mother took care of the house and raised children, of whom she had three.
Zarifa's creative inclinations began to manifest themselves early - she sang at school, performed at festive events, and she was noticed by the famous musician Oleg Kvasha, who helped her take her first steps in her career.
The first compositions recorded with his help soon began to be heard on the radio, and then the talented girl was invited to take part in the “Morning Star” competition, in which she reached the finals.
Since then, the future Russian pop star has become a regular participant in various competitions and festivals, and at the age of sixteen she recorded her first studio album.
After graduating from school with a silver medal, Zarifa entered the Academy of Theater Arts of St. Petersburg, and during her student years she discovered another talent - acting.
Zara played on stage, and then made her debut in cinema, starring in a small role in the film “Named Baron...”.
Later there were several more films, but Zara gained fame not as an actress, but thanks to her musical talent and vocal abilities.
In the final of the Star Factory-6 project, the singer took third place and had the opportunity to sign a lucrative contract with producer Viktor Drobysh. This was the beginning of Zara’s active creative biography - she released a new album and went on her first tour.
Zara began to be invited to various television projects and shows, and to be included among the participants in concerts.
"At the Star Factory"
Zara is a member of the jury of the All-Russian television competition “New Star” and participates in “Slavic Bazaar”. In December 2015, the singer performed in front of Russian military personnel in Syria, for which she was awarded a medal. She became the organizer of the first International Festival of Ethnic Music, held in Kolomenskoye in September last year.
Singer Zara devotes a lot of time to charity, participating in numerous projects aimed at helping people in need of restoring their health, orphans and children with cancer and cerebral palsy.
Being engaged in social and charitable activities, the singer does not forget about her main purpose - she goes on tour and performs on the most prestigious stages. In October 2020, the singer received the title of “Honored Artist of the Russian Federation.”
Rumors that not all is well in the family of singer Zara and her husband, businessman Sergei Ivanov, have long been discussed on the Internet. The couple does not appear together at social events; on the star’s microblog you can often see photos in which she is captured alone or in the company of her two sons Daniil and Maxim.
The artist flatly refused to comment on her personal life, and only recently made the decision to openly talk about what happened in her relationship with her husband.
“We divorced quite recently,” admitted singer Zara. “It was a very difficult decision for both of us, but it had to be made.” I want to emphasize that this was a joint decision.”
Zara explained the reasons for the long silence very simply - she did not want any fuss, quite rightly believing that it could harm her sons. Speaking about her divorce from Sergei Ivanov, the singer tries to be as correct as possible. She emphasizes that there was no place for betrayal and scandals in their family, it’s just that she and her husband at some point realized that they were no longer interested in each other. “For several years we tried to somehow restore our relationship - we didn’t want to traumatize the children,” continues singer Zara. “The attempts were unsuccessful, and we are probably both to blame for this.” In the end, we became strangers to each other, and, unfortunately, our children felt this.”
After the separation, the couple managed to reach a level of relationship that allows them to communicate with each other for the sake of the children. The sons stayed to live with Zara, but often see their father. The singer emphasized that, due to the divorce, she canceled all concerts planned for the summer in order to spend as much time as possible with her sons. Boys now really need their mother's constant attention and care.
Having already been married twice, Zara does not rule out the possibility of starting a family again. Let us remember that the singer’s first marriage was with the son of Senator Valentina Matvienko, Sergei.
“I can’t imagine myself as a lonely woman,” Zara said in an interview with Komsomolskaya Pravda. — You know, I never said that the main thing in my life is only creativity or only family. I tried to ensure that they coexisted peacefully and harmoniously. If someday a man appears next to me who understands and appreciates this, then I have found the ideal companion.”
Artist career
Few people know the singer Zara as an actress. Meanwhile, she graduated from the St. Petersburg Academy of Theater Arts. Her biography says that the girl starred in several films and took part in many performances (“Sky Swallows”, “Idiot”, etc.). But the love for music still turned out to be stronger.
Zara and Anna Snatkina in the film “Pushkin. The Last Duel"
The personal life of the artist of that time was undergoing great changes. In 2004, she married the son of the governor of St. Petersburg V. Matvienko. For the sake of her husband, she accepted the Orthodox faith.
It has now become clear that if it were not for participation in the “Star Factory”, the world would not have recognized Zara as a wonderful singer. In this project she took an honorable third place in 2006. The young artist was immediately noticed by composer Viktor Drobysh, who soon signed a contract with her.
Zara while participating in “Star Factory 6”
Together with this composer, singer Zara recorded many discs and filmed videos. Many songs recorded at that time are known to her fans (“Encore Love,” “Unloved,” etc.) The song “Sky for Two” was recorded specifically for the film “Apocalypse Code.”
Zara on the set of a video clip
Many people remember the participation of singer Zara in the “Two Stars” project. There she composed a duet with actor Dmitry Pevtsov. Her gentle voice was well set off by Dmitry’s courageous baritone. No one (including the singer Zara herself) can resist tears while listening to the song performed by her from the masterpiece film “Titanic”. Where does she get her sensuality and insight from? Maybe from the memories of the facts of his biography?..
Second husband and children
Parting was difficult for the girl; she did not want to meet anyone. And I decided to devote all my free time to my career, so I auditioned for the TV project “Star Factory”. The star and her friend decided to celebrate the event and went to a party, which became fateful. But the artist did not immediately realize this and rejected the advances of the persistent entrepreneur, answered questions briefly and hurried away from the event. The man was upset by this turn of events and did not ask for the phone number of the beauty he liked.
But one evening he was lucky enough to see Zara in a television project. From that moment on, he became a fan of the artist’s talent, bought all the tickets for the concert, gave huge bouquets of flowers, made gifts, but hid his identity, which interested the singer. One day he managed to meet a participant in the show in person, and the girl recognized the fan as a persistent suitor from the party; he turned out to be Sergei Ivanov. But the beauty’s heart did not part and Ivanov had to persistently seek the star. The girl still remembered her unsuccessful first marriage and believed that there should only be one husband. Zara was also embarrassed by the fact that the man was married and had children. But Sergei did not stop and tried to win the beauty’s heart for more than a year. The artist recalls: “Since the first meeting, Sergei offered to become his wife a hundred times, and I refused exactly the same number of times. But for the hundred and first time I said “Yes,” he did not receive such an answer, he was confused and burst into tears.”
In 2008, we had a luxurious wedding on Rublyovka, among the guests there were many respected people from politics and show business. The second husband did not object to his wife’s career, he only supported it in every possible way. Her personal life with her husband was going well; a year later the couple had their first child, Daniil, and 3 years later she gave Sergei another son, Maxim. Children were a dream for Zara, because the girl admits that she had problems conceiving. But the star claims that great love and constant prayers allowed her to experience the joy of motherhood.
Unexpectedly for the entire family and children, the relationship between the spouses began to deteriorate. In 2020, singer Zara divorced her second husband. The reasons for the breakup are kept silent.
Today, journalists attribute the singer to an affair with deputy Leonid Slutsky. There are also rumors that thanks to his influence, the artist received the “Honored Artist of Russia” award. The media claim that at the end of 2020, Zara and her children vacationed on the islands and it was there that she met the politician.
