Despite the fact that now Tina Kandelaki holds a high position on television, she fondly recalls the program "Details", which she once hosted at the dawn of her dizzying career. "The "Details" program made me the leader. If it weren't for her, no Tina Kandelaki would exist. The moment of the coolest professional growth. The genre of the interview endlessly develops a person ... "- said Kandelaki.

ON THIS TOPIC

Tina ended her work in the program because she "talked to everyone." However, in her life there were frankly disastrous conversations. This happened to the producer of the Tatu group Ivan Shapovalov. The piquancy of the conversation was given by the fact that the man was not quite sober.

According to Kandelaki, she realized from the very beginning that the conversation would not work. "Unlike my mother, I am not a narcologist. But there it would become clear to anyone. When talking with a person, you will immediately feel whether he drank a glass or five? At the same time, Ivan had a well-thought-out image - such an infant terrible from the East. Hefty layer of Russian pop culture had no chance of exporting. Suddenly, absolutely world-class content appears! Demanded on any American show! I remember a funny fragment - girls are driving in a car. It seems that Van Damme wants to meet them. Yulia Volkova says: "Van Damm... What about Van Damme? What to do with him?" - "Cho, cho ... Get to know!" They themselves did not expect this phenomenal fame, "said Tina.

Kandelaki did not even try to save the interview. She explained why: "Yes, watching his agony on the air is much more interesting! You look and understand that such a state kills."

According to Tina, there are six tricks to present the interlocutor in an unpleasant light, but this is not for her. “Vanya is so… How can I tell you… He was way ahead of his time. There were no hashtags yet, and Vanya was already thinking with trends, memes. This is just an American scenario about a person who has achieved rapid success! he can take it away. Because in the future, Shapovalov didn’t have anything. The breakthrough with Tatu is, yes, phenomenal. Never before has the Russian stage in the West interested anyone. After, too, "Kandelaki is quoted by Sport -Express".

Only one person out of ten who learned about their terrible disease may not fall into despair, but pull himself together and eventually rise to his feet. This one turned out to be Ivan Shapovalov, known to us mainly as the producer of the scandalous Tatu group.

Disappointing news

A child psychiatrist by profession, in the past the owner of one of the Russian print media, the head of a public organization, a marketer and advertiser for leading insurance companies in Moscow, and in addition, screenwriter and producer Ivan Shapovalov, in the recent 2012, found out that he had a malignant tumor in his head , and if urgent treatment is not started, then he will not live long. Many of his acquaintances even ahead of time "sent him to the next world" in their interviews, but not Ivan himself. He for a long time did not get in touch with the press, did not allow his friends and relatives to do the same. But, apparently, the famous producer had enough "well-wishers" who were just waiting for the right moment to merge the whole truth and untruth into the broad masses.

Here, for example, one of the managers of Enrique Iglesias, who at one time was on rather friendly terms with Shapovalov, although he sympathizes with his former friend, he sincerely believes that this is the very retribution for the sins of youth. What are the sins? Well, if you believe the rumors, then Ivan has not so few of them.

Retribution?

Just a few years ago, everyone was just talking about the sexual promiscuity and bisexual inclinations of the star. The first thing that comes to mind is, of course, the path by which the obvious favorite of her mentor, Yulia Volkova, got into the Tatu project, and he apparently lies through the bed. Moreover, if we compare all the dates, it turns out that producer Ivan Shapovalov seduced her at a very young age. “Yes, and what is there to hide,” Ivan himself apparently thought, and boldly declared to one of the British publishers that underage girls attracted him most of all.

Moreover, the unfortunate producer is credited with sexual relations with most of the people who have ever worked with him. With all this, Ivan Shapovalov was married. His only lawful wife Valeria, with whom he formalized his relationship while studying at the Saratov Medical Institute, although she moved out of her husband a long time ago, she did not dare to divorce. The spouses, by the way, have two children: 27-year-old Vova and 11-year-old Ivan Ivanovich. But on the side of the "family man" there is a daughter Uma, born of her mistress Olga.

Breaking all moral taboos

Ivan Shapovalov, who earned fame as a world pervert hero, whom the London newspaper The Times compared with Patrick Swayze, announced the problems of pedophilia all over Britain, but at the same time, he did not hesitate to use it as a publicity stunt in the music industry.

The same Ivan Irbis told about a poor young transvestite, who, one might say, was a double of Yulia Volkova. According to him, for some time the guy lived in an apartment rented by Shapovalov. And although the producer justified this fact with the desire to create a new, even more compromising project with the scandalous name “It”, Irbis says that all this was just a matter of the sexual satisfaction of the star. Such, it turns out, is Ivan Shapovalov. "Tatu" is another confirmation of this. Only a twisted brain could freely release two kissing teenage girls onto the stage. Nobody has done this before, and therefore the scandalous group in the West was dubbed "the collapse of the last pop taboo."

The first pancake is not always lumpy

The Tatu group is Shapovalov's production debut. He began working on the project together with the composer Voitinsky back in 1999. The first member of the team was with whom several compositions were recorded at that time. A little later, Yulia Volkova appeared on the horizon, and the duet got its name. It is worth noting that Alexander Voitinsky would later refuse to cooperate with Shapovalov, as he considered the project to be devoid of moral principles.

The year 2000 was a turning point for Tatu - their song “I'm crazy” was heard from all the radios, and a video about two schoolgirls openly kissing in the pouring rain appeared on the blue screens. The music for the song, by the way, is the work of 17-year-old Sergey Galoyan. Already at the beginning of 2001, the group recorded their first studio album called "200 in the opposite direction", which in a year will become English-language. The song "Half an hour" is gaining particular popularity, and the "tatushki" begin to briskly tour around the world.

Fall from Heaven

In 2003 successful producer came up with a brilliant idea: why not make an equally scandalous reality show? And already at the beginning next year the STS channel presented the Russians with a new "entertainment" - "Tatu" in the Celestial Empire, in which the girls had to record their new album in front of the viewers. Filming took place on the 13th level of the Beijing Hotel, where Shapovalov set up a recording studio. But we did not wait for the final result - Ivan abandoned his “brainchild” and transferred the producer rights to the Tatu group to Boris Rensky.

But in 2004, the British music award BMI awarded him the Pop Awards. And all thanks to the composition All the Things She Said, which, bypassing even the legendary No Doubt team with their hit It`s My Life, became the leader in this nomination. Imagine, the song was aired over 2 million times!

At the foot of glory

After giving up tattoos and triumphing on the British charts, Shapovalov began work on a new project called Nato. Then he took himself one more ward - the group "7B". Heavy sound and depressive notes have become something new in the work of the producer.

In 2004, he took up the aspiring singer Helei, and already in 2005 he loudly announced his intention to create a new reality show. Filming was supposed to take place on one of the icebreakers, which followed the Arctic Ocean. But plans remained plans.

Well, you can’t take away the desire to work with Ivan Shapovalov, but none of the projects that he led received such success and recognition as Tatu. The group, causing absolutely contradictory comments (they were called either an international shame, or the national pride of Russia), became " calling card» Producer.

A fatal diagnosis, it would seem ...

But back to the news that became public knowledge in the hot summer of 2012. Brain cancer is terrible diagnosis Ivan heard from the doctors in his direction. He himself did not want to make this information public, so everyone thought and wondered about what was happening with Ivan Shapovalov and why he did not go out in public. But his friend and colleague, soon told the press about the state of affairs of the patient. It turns out that immediately after the announcement of Ivan's diagnosis, he was placed in the intensive care unit of one of the Moscow clinics. In this, the former ward Yulia Volkova helped him in every possible way. A large number of courses of chemotherapy contributed to a significant reduction in the tumor, which, by the way, was so neglected that it even pressed on Shapovalov's eye. Ivan, who took his health into his own hands, got on his feet a year later.

Doctors' predictions: will Ivan Shapovalov have time to atone for his sins?

Ivan Shapovalov's illness, you understand, does not promise him an absolute recovery. Perhaps that is why the producer took the illness sent to him as a chance to turn the next page of his "non-angelic" life and start everything from scratch.

He practically left Moscow and settled in the town of Konakovo, in the Tver region. There he found new way maintaining vitality. Horses are what helps him in difficult moments. And it's not just a hobby. Horses, in a way, became his life. But Ivan Shapovalov did not leave music either. Cancer did not prevent him from performing and recording his own song called "My love is walking somewhere."

Perhaps it was this attitude to his illness that allowed Ivan to remain among the living. After all, the forecasts of doctors were, to put it mildly, disappointing. None of them at first would have dared to give Shapovalov more than 3 months of life, and what a life! Constant wandering around hospitals and communicating with people in white coats - that's what should have accompanied the sinful producer throughout the rest of his life allotted to him. But it was not there! After intensive courses radiation therapy and "chemistry", endless droppers and debilitating medications, the tumor began to noticeably decrease. Now, after more than two years, doctors do not notice any metastases in Ivan's body, but he looks like a completely healthy person.

Crazy fame, bags of money, string foreign countries, luxurious parties turning into orgies, homosexuality, sex with minors, drugs, scandalous projects and stories about it to journalists in boastfully shocking interviews - now the famous producer of the Tatu group has all this in the past! Life today Ivan Shapovalov- endless drips and constant communication with people in white coats. Doctors delivered a terrible sentence to a still young, 46-year-old man: he had three months left to live!

"God, forgive me!"

A cap on his head to hide baldness after chemotherapy, quiet speech, a haggard face, crutches and terrible thinness - that's what's left of the once daring and outrageous Vani Shapovalova.

The producer of Tatu had a huge bump on his forehead eight months ago. The doctors' diagnosis sounded scary - brain cancer!

— Vania at first he refused to be treated, says a friend of Shapovalov Leonid Dzyunik. - I was going to resort to unconventional Chinese medicine! I tried hippotherapy - therapeutic horseback riding. But relatives still persuaded him to go to the Burdenko hospital.

Shapovalov underwent a course of radiation therapy and was allowed to go home. By adding this:

“We did everything we could, but the chances are slim. Most likely, you have no more than three months left ...

news about deadly disease scandalous producer shocked the entire show business.

"God punished!" - enemies and friends repeated in horror.

— U Vani success really blew the roof off, says sadly Elena Kiper, former co-producer of Tatu and ex-lover Shapovalova. - I could not somehow influence him, although we had a close relationship. Ivan is an adult, especially a psychologist by education! What will you tell him? How can you convince? Much later, meeting with him, I said: “Listen, well, let's finish all this already!” But my words didn't change anything. And then, in the midst of the wild popularity of Tatu, I just left! She left because the bacchanalia began! I was tormented by the conscience for everything we did! And I had to go to church to be cleansed!

Elena almost every day she asked the Almighty: “Lord, forgive me!” And after all, she begged for forgiveness: now Keeper lives in harmony with herself and the world around her. And he tries his best to help his former lover in a desperate struggle with death! But Shapovalov himself is not going to repent! On the contrary, he is sure: God loves him, since he sent him such a monstrous illness as a reward!

Love... sickness

- I believe that brain cancer is my reward, not retribution! - says the creator of Tatu. - Reward for what? Well, for what ... For what is! For what was! And for sins or good deeds - it's not for me to decide! You see, everything in my life suits me. And there is no desire to change anything. I have learned to appreciate the simple human joys in life. Black bread and tea - do you know how delicious it is?! And why do I need money and fame now? I have the main thing - a piano on which I can play, bread and tea, a small house on the banks of the Volga ... Friends come to me, here are the “tatushki” girls recently: and Lena, And Julia…

It looks like during the fight against the cursed disease Shapovalov read psychology books Valeria Sinelnikova. One of them is called:

"Love your disease." In it, the author assures: as soon as a person realizes what exactly in the spiritual plan caused his illness, thinks about the purpose and meaning of his life and changes his way of thinking, getting rid of everything nasty, then recovery will begin immediately. And despite the sad prognosis of doctors, not only alive, but, according to his friends Elena Kiper And Leonid Dzyunik, feels better!

Is the former brawler and sinner really recovering? Not only in body, but also in soul...

Ivan Nikolaevich Shapovalov- Russian music producer, best known for his musical project "t.A.T.u."

Biography

Ivan was born on May 28, 1966 in the Volgograd region (the city of Kotovo). His mother, Nadezhda Richardovna, worked as a physics teacher. Dad, Nikolai Alexandrovich was an artist. Rather, thanks to the influence of his mother, Ivan went to school with a physical and mathematical bias. After school, he chose a medical direction, studied at the Saratov Medical Institute, specializing in psychiatry. After graduation, he worked in a children's psychiatric hospital, at the same time he led a private practice in the field of psychocorrection of children. Early married his classmate Valeria, gave birth to a son, Vladimir. Until a certain period, Ivan was an exemplary citizen, like many others, a cog in a large social system. Then began the gradual transformation of an ordinary provincial doctor into something else, sometimes not always clear to the layman.

Change of life course

In 1992, Ivan decides to change his life dramatically. He leaves medicine and founds a PR organization "Context" Public Opinion Formation Service. During the gubernatorial elections, there was a rather high demand for the services of the company.

For the next two years, Shapovalov worked for the Slavia insurance company and the Russian Capital pension fund. In both companies, Ivan is engaged in marketing and promotions. A little later, he was transferred to work in the Moscow branches of companies. At that time, he met the composer Voitinsky.

Since 1994, Ivan has been trying himself as a screenwriter for commercials. The topic of advertising and television then generally only gained momentum.

In 1996, he made a landmark commercial for the R&K computer company. One of the founders of the company later acted as a sponsor and co-producer of Tatu. Another commercial gave an acquaintance with the girl Lena Katina, who voiced the clip. A little later, on the set, Ivan collaborates with NTV journalist Elena Kiper, who became a full-fledged co-producer of the project. The pieces of the puzzle fit together.

Project «t.A.T.u.»

The first casting for the role of the soloist was won by Lena Katina. It was 1999 year. Voitinsky records two songs with Lena: "I am your enemy" and "Yugoslavia". The composer and producer got the feeling that one singer would not be enough and a second girl, Yulia Volkova, was added to the group.

In 2001, joint hard work finally gives a tangible result - the album "200 in the opposite direction" is released. In May of the same year, Shapovalov signed a contract with the famous label "Universal Music". The contract was not as simple as it might seem: he obliged Ivan to release three albums without fail and forbade him to change the composition of the group.

The group is gaining popularity. In 2002/2003, a lot of concerts are planned, an English version of the first album is released, a world tour is launched.

In 2004, within the framework of the same advertising campaign, the show "Tattoo in the Middle Kingdom" was launched on the STS TV channel. The office was filmed, all the demo versions of the songs of the new album were accepted, but the show was never launched. Ivan Shapovalov resigned as a producer and actually gave the brand to Tatu. In October 2004, Ivan Shapovalov received a medal for the composition "All the things she said", of which he was a co-author. The song has been played over 2 million times.

New projects

After the success of Tatu, Ivan wanted to do something equally explosive and grandiose. He takes on several projects, but these projects, for various reasons, could not be implemented. This is the singer Nato in 2004, the rock group "7B", the singer Helya and Nano-project.

There was even an idea to shoot a reality show on an icebreaker during a trip to the North Pole.

Disease

Completely unexpected for Ivan in 2012 was the realization that he had been diagnosed with brain cancer. At first, he categorically refused to believe that something could be wrong with him, he tried to be treated by shamans and psychics. Help was provided by his former ward, Yulia Volkova. She convinced Ivan to undergo diagnostics in a modern medical center and even brought him herself. A course of chemotherapy was prescribed and a survival period of two months was indicated. Friends, doctors, and especially the media buried Ivan together. Only the closest friends and family remained. They announced a fundraiser for treatment and, in fact, snatched Shapovalov from the hands of death.

On this moment Ivan lives and works in China. He returned to show business, though not as a producer, but as a singer. Recording his new album.

In 1998, Shapovalov shot a commercial soft drinks“Drink drinks from Chernogolovka without stopping” by the OST company, voiced by Lena Katina, the future soloist of the group.

Shapovalov becomes the producer of the Tatu group and the director of the Neformat company (the production center of I. Shapovalov).

Best of the day

A video was filmed the same year. In 2001, the album "200 in the opposite direction" was released. In May 2001, Shapovalov signed a contract with Russian branch label Universal Music. Under the contract, Shapovalov must release three albums, while one of the conditions of the contract was a clause according to which the producer could not change the composition of the group.

The composition All the Things She Said, of which he was a co-author, was aired more than 2 million times and took first place in the pop music category, ahead of No Doubt's It`s My Life.

2004-2008

In 2004, Shapovalov began producing the singer Nato - Natalya Shevlyakova from Chelyabinsk, who met Shapovalov during his work in China. In his plans was the performance of the singer in the outfit of a suicide bomber. On the anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attack in the United States, Shapovalov tried to organize a concert in the Hall of Columns, where the singer was scheduled to perform in a shahid dress. In this regard, the representative of the Ministry of Culture and mass communications The Russian Federation expressed its concern, the action was called politically incorrect, and the concert was canceled. After the seizure of a school in Beslan by terrorists on September 1, Shapovalov did not rule out the possibility of holding a concert in this city. Shapovalov tried to hold a similar concert in England. The Muslim Council of Great Britain condemned the idea, calling it "an attempt to make money from the tragedy of other people", and called for the concert to be ignored. The performance took place in January 2005.

Shapovalov also produced the rock group 7B. In 2005, Shapovalov announced that he intended to film a reality show on an icebreaker that would produce a tour of the Arctic Ocean, but the project remained unrealized.

In 2007, he became a co-owner of the online store Mp3search.ru. In the same year, the record company Gala Records filed a lawsuit against Mp3search.ru, accusing it of illegally distributing Maksim's recordings.

Notable promotions and criticism

Shapovalov used various provocative techniques to draw attention to his projects.

In the video clips of Tatu, in addition to lesbian themes, there were stories related to masturbation and terrorism (explosion of a children's carousel). One of the main objects of criticism was the image of lesbians used by the group. So, doctor Dilya Enikeeva, commenting on the work of the group, wrote: "this is a well-thought-out policy against the nation, against healthy sex, family and motherhood." At the same time, a number of sources noted that, despite their image, Tatu was not perceived as a lesbian group in the lesbian community itself, and Shapovalov was sharply criticized. One of the reasons for this attitude was that the group actually acted within the framework of a heterosexist culture: “in constructing the stage image of lesbians, the group is guided by a patriarchal frame in which a woman is always an object for pleasure, an object of gaze, and the role of the beholder belongs to a man. .. The image of the group corresponds more to the “woman for a man” model than “a woman for a woman.” Sociologist Igor Kon singled out another component of the group's image: "In my opinion, the success of Tatu is due not so much to a demonstrative game of forbidden lesbian relationships, but to the fact that an image of self-sufficient tough girls has been created."

In 2003, in the UK, Shapovalov made various provocative statements on the topic of pedophilia, which caused protests from a number of public organizations(in particular, from the organization for the protection of children from violence Kidscape). Kidscape director Michelle Elliott said: “We object and don't find it funny at all that Ivan is portraying them as a childish sexual fantasy. These girls are talented. It is a pity that they are advertised at the expense of hundreds of thousands of sexually abused children.” In an interview with a British tabloid, Shapovalov stated that he "prefers underage girls." British Channel 4 presenter Richard Madley called the duet "nauseous", describing the video for the song All the Things She Said as "the standard of sweet dreams for all British pedophiles." In response, Shapovalov on the group's official website called for a discussion "on the growth of pedophilia in the UK" and expressed his readiness to provide medical care Madeley himself. A similar reaction to the appearance of the group was due to the fact that at that time various anti-pedophile campaigns were carried out in the UK.

In May 2003, Shapovalov was going to shoot a video on Red Square featuring several hundred girls in school skirts. However, the police stopped the event, forcing out all those gathered and detaining the producer himself. On this occasion, Shapovalov noted: “Apparently, the Kremlin does not need Tatu at Eurovision.”

In 2003, Shapovalov tried to nominate Tatu soloists as candidates for the President of Russia. The beginning of the collection of signatures was announced on Russian television. To overcome the age limit of 35, he suggested adding up the age of the singers.
