Soloist of the group VIA Gra Albina Dzhanabaeva

The soloist of the group VIA Gra Albina Dzhanabaeva was born on April 9, 1979 in the city of Volgograd. Albina grew up in a big family, she has a younger brother and a younger sister. Father Albina - Boris Janabaev - geologist. He worked as a driller, often went on business trips and took a small Albina with him. He taught her how to take molds from the soil, this activity was very much liked by Albina, and in the future she was going to become a geologist. When Albina was six years old, her aunt took her to music school. At the music school, Albina attended piano lessons. The study in music school was given to Albina not easily, there was no desire to learn scales and various musical works when peers play in the street.

I really wanted to skip classes, but my relatives did not give me lessons. Grandmother, aunt, mother and father took Albina to music school in turn and waited for the graduation to take the girl home. Classes at the music school became interesting and desirable, when Albina began to attend choir lessons in addition to piano lessons. In the secondary school, learning that the girl is attending the choir, attracted her to participate in all the festivities, so that Albina sang. At the age of 12 she became a soloist of the school ensemble, the main part of which consisted of sixteen-year-olds.

After graduating from high school, Albina goes to conquer Moscow. Enters into the State Musical College named after Gnesins. While studying at the school I met my first love, although it did not come to the wedding, but in a civil marriage young people lived for a long time. According to Albina, the family did not work, as young people had absolutely no time for personal life. During the day at the school, work is in the evening. They both worked in the theater - cabaret "Bat", participated in extras, sang, danced, and also prepared their numbers. After graduation, Albina works in advertising, is shot in commercials, because she has not seen the prospects in the theater for herself. In search of work offers. Albina attended various castings. One of them was the Korean musical "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs". Listening it was a success, and then signed a contract with the Koreans. She was offered the role of Snow White-foreigner. It was necessary to learn the Korean alphabet in order to freely read its role, but in addition to language problems, difficulties arose in understanding an alien culture. But over time it became easier, according to Albina, her work in Korea, she remembers with warmth. After three months of work in the musical, Albina returns to Moscow for a vacation, where she is invited to work as a vocalist in backing vocals in the team of Valeria Meladze. And Meladze himself invited to work. She agrees and breaks the contract with the Koreans.

The staff of Meladze is a man of twelve men, she is one woman. The rest are men. In the beginning it was difficult, as Albina says, they have everything strictly as in the army, but then got used to it. Working at Meladze, Albina met a young man who later became the father of her child. She claims that he is not from Meladze's team, but has some relation to show business. In most of the rumors, Valery Meladze himself is the father of Albina's child. This is a favorite topic for journalists. Even the divorce of Valery Meladze with his wife Irina, with whom they lived together for twenty years and brought up three children, is associated with Albina Dzhanabaeva. Since the name of the child's father Albina carefully conceals, the public decided that he was Meladze. All pregnancy Albina continued to work, the pregnancy went well and until the sixth month inclusive she performed at concerts. Albina left for maternity leave with an easy heart, as Meladze promised to hire him after the decree.

In 2004, Albina became a mother, she completely plunged into cares for the baby - Kostya. When Kostya was six months old, Albina was offered to become a soloist in the group "VIA Gra", on the recommendation of Valery Meladze, the producer of the group is his brother Konstantin Meladze. Albina replaced in the group Svetlana Loboda. It was hard, since Albina was constantly compared to Loboda, but she was supported by the other two soloists Nadezhda Granovskaya and Vera Brezhneva, as well as Konstantin Meladze, the producer of the band. Albina's debut in the band was a video for the song "The World I Did not Know About You". Although the soloists in the group change very often, Albina Dzhanabaeva, has remained to this day the soloist of the collective. In 2009, Albina entered the Faculty of Psychology, studying it is not easy, there are constant tours, traveling, there is very little time for studying, but Albina has become accustomed to coping with difficulties.

Another year 2009 for Albina was significant in that the first time on the scene came the son of Kostya. Albina, along with Konstantin, as well as Nadezhda Meikher and her son Igor took part in the festival "The New Wave Children". In 2010, Albina Dzhanabaeva became the face of the company that produces fashionable women's clothing and accessories - "Love Republic". In 2011, for the first time he participates in the television project "Dances with the Stars" on the channel "Russia", paired with Andrei Fomin. Before that time, Albina refused to participate in various TV shows. At the show, Albina managed to conquer all jury members with her plastic and looks. One of the best dances with Andrei Fomin was the rumba. At the age of 31, the soloist of the band VIA Gra Albina Dzhanabaeva looks great and she has many plans for the future.
