Dominic Joker, wife. Personal life. Dominic Joker told the whole truth about leaving his wife and new lover Your marriage broke up because of Katya

Dominic involved close people in preparing the concert. His girlfriend Ekaterina wrote the script for the show, Native sister Polina staged choreographic numbers. The musician will perform a mix of songs from different years.

— In the show I’m going to show not only those songs that everyone knows (they sounded when I was part of the groups “2+2” and “Banda”), but also others. For example, my song “You will come” was released only by Vlad Topalov, and it became a hit, but I never sang it. Now this will be my story. The result should be a cheerful, joyful action, representing not a boy, but a husband.

- Dominic, what else do you plan to surprise the audience with?

- It will be great show- with special effects and unexpected duets. But that's not the main point. I want the audience to convey my excitement, sincere desire open your soul. My friends and senior comrades will take the stage. I am grateful to Lyubov Uspenskaya, Dzhigan and others for such support. My girlfriend Ekaterina is also participating in the concert. She presents her new song. For my sake, Katya postponed the start of her solo career and was completely involved in preparing and organizing my show. She is very talented person. I'm proud of her. We are inseparable both at work and at home.

- And where did you meet such a treasure?

In 2013 in Barnaul during the casting for television project"Battle of the Choirs" I was one of the mentors. And Katya came to the competition. I liked Katyusha right away. Both externally and how creative person. I selected her to join my team. As a result, we sang perfectly - in literally words. Our guys, the finalists of the project, were invited to perform at the Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games in Sochi. And it was there that I decided that if I missed Katya, I would regret it all my life. On our last day in Sochi, I invited her to a restaurant. Or rather, I invited all the guys, but asked them to come later. That's why Katya and I found ourselves alone. To her question “Where is everyone?” replied: “I don’t know. They'll probably do." We felt so good together that Katya soon forgot that we were waiting for someone...

She had to return to Barnaul. But then she came to see me in Moscow. First - for a visit, and then - for good. Since then we have not parted.

- Did your marriage break up because of Katya?

No. Albina and I did not have a tragic breakup. Long before the “Battle of the Choirs” project, before meeting Katya, something went wrong in our family, we could not stay together. We parted ways. Naturally, I left the apartment to my wife and children. The musicians from my team rehearsed and lived in the Snegiri complex near Moscow. At one time I also hung out there. We toured a lot, wandered around cities and towns. When we returned to Moscow, I lived in the country. Divorce was a joint decision between Albina and me. Unfortunately, people disagree. This is sad, of course, but it means it’s necessary. We divorced not because of infidelity, not because someone else appeared. Just living together logically completed. I didn’t rush into a new relationship - first of all, I threw myself into work. And then I met Katya...

Now mine ex-wife happy with another person. We continue to raise our sons together, ten-year-old Martin and seven-year-old Marcus. Yes, we have gone through a difficult period. There were many attacks from outside yellow press, various accusations were voiced: “he abandoned his family,” “the children are starving.” Neither Albina nor I reacted to this gossip in any way. I believe that it is impossible to go your way if

throw a stone at every barking dog. You never know who says what. At that time, Albina and I were most worried about the children, so that the hype would not affect their condition. Childhood, in my opinion, is one of the most cruel periods of life. This is the time of personality formation, when the soul is open to the world, it can be hurt very easily. And I was the most nervous. The fact is that in my childhood there was a similar story. My parents also divorced. After the divorce, my mother never said anything about my father. harsh words. And she didn’t allow others to talk badly about him. People break up, but if they remain friends in life, then, it seems to me, they are still family. I did not disappear from my children's lives.

We must give credit to both Katya and Albina - they found mutual language. Perhaps that’s why the guys calmly accepted Katyusha’s appearance. She was able to build great relationships with Martin and Marcus. The guys grow up knowing that they have two homes, and they like it. When the youngest, Marik, gets tired on a walk, he suggests: “Come to us.” For him there is no division between mom’s family and dad’s family. Apparently, Albina and Artem and Katya and I managed to create a good atmosphere, since the children live an easy and calm life. When I see the happy smiles of my sons, I am happy too: it means we did everything right. The only thing I'm worried about is that I don't get to see my eldest son often. Martin spends a lot of time training and is involved in figure skating. By the way, he is making great progress. At the age of ten he received the second youth rank. Martin was noticed by serious coaches, such as Tarasova. And this says a lot. Tatyana Anatolyevna does not pay attention even to very gifted children. She needs to see the athlete’s determination, to know that he himself will dig the ground, hit his hoof, in order to achieve the goal. Martin is already a little champion for me. The same thing happens in show business. Not a single promoter will engage with a young artist if he is not passionate about his work.

- How do children react to the fact that their dad is a famous artist?

You know, being the child of a public person is quite difficult: dad is regularly shown on TV, people recognize him on the street. It's easy to become arrogant when the attention of others is on you. But this absolutely does not apply to my children. They are surprisingly indifferent to dad's popularity. Of course they are pleased. But none of them boasts about it. Some situations surprise them. For example: I come to pick up the boys from school, their peers, and more often young mothers, want to take a photo with me. They ask: “Can I take a photo of the child with you? Thank you! And now me." And this “me” soon appears on Instagram. It’s still unusual for my children to see this.

Martin has chosen the path of a professional athlete for himself, and Marcus has decided? What is he interested in doing in life?

- Marcus has a craving for music, in this regard he is more like me, and Martin is like Albina, he is indifferent to music. Marik sings well. Katya, my sister Polina and I were very surprised when our son gave us a small concert - with dancing and singing. In kindergarten he takes part in performances. I came and looked: it copes well. Now he will start studying music at our school with Katya - Joker school. At the same time, he is also interested in sports. I started going to the boxing section. I welcome this, but, naturally, at an amateur level. It’s not my rule to prohibit or put pressure, I’ll just try to explain to Marcus the unsightly sides of both boxing and show business.

- And from the unsightly sides modern life are you trying to fence them off? For example, from negativity on the Internet?

Martin is already an adult, he is less susceptible to negative information that we can see on the Internet. And I try to explain everything to Marik. But I don't restrict their Internet access. I think it’s stupid to take away a child’s favorite toy. Someone says that in computer games a lot of aggression, they cite the game as an example Mortal Kombat. Was there little aggression in the yard game of toy soldiers in our childhood? Or we played knives and darts - isn’t that aggression? It all depends on how you approach it. I would like to protect my children from bad people. But this, unfortunately, is unrealistic. The only thing that can be done is to teach him to be tougher, to be able to fight back.

- Dominic, do you now have everything you dreamed of?

I have everything to feel happy: two wonderful sons, my girlfriend, a wonderful relationship with my ex-wife. And the music I live by.

During his long career, Dominic Joker managed to work with various Russian show business representatives. About half of its creative biography the musician spent in the shadows, working behind the scenes on songs for other artists, and in the mid-2000s he took a risky step: he came out from behind the backs of those for whom he created hits in order to declare his talent in full force.

In addition to music, Dominic is involved in many things: he launched his own clothing line Dominick Joker, owns the recording studio J.O.B. Recording, founded a children's art school and opened a karaoke club. In 2009, the performer received a medal from the Patrons of the Century charity foundation.

Childhood and youth

Dominic, whose real name is Alexander Breslavsky, was born in July 1980. The boy grew up in Odessa, a port city that absorbed a mixture of cultures different nationalities and peoples, which left its mark on the Joker’s worldview. And Alexander himself is a quarter Spanish by blood, half a Polish Jew - this “cocktail” became the reason for the singer’s unusual, memorable appearance and his voice timbre, which is not typical for the Slavs.

Dominic has lived in Moscow since the early 2000s, but he remembers with tenderness hometown. Also a man with great love speaks about the family.

The boy first appeared on stage at the age of 7. This happened by accident: there was a KVN production at the school, and due to a delay in the participants, the first person who came to hand was brought out to entertain the audience. After this, as the performer admitted, he realized two things for himself: he really likes the stage, and participation in school productions softens the attitude of teachers towards educational mistakes.

After school, Joker went to study at a nautical school and even went to sea. But the young man quickly realized that naval romance was not for him, and changed his sailor uniform to study at the conservatory. Educational institution he didn't finish that way.

Also in school years Alex teamed up with friends in various groups playing various styles, from rap to rock. His first serious project was the boy band “2+2”, where Dominic became both a performer and the author of most of the material performed. The singer even performed with the band members at a competition “ New wave", where the musicians took 9th place. But in Jurmala the Joker met.

Soon after returning to Odessa, the group broke up, and Dominic left for Moscow. At first the singer was in creative search. He wrote music for a solo album and appeared on the stage of capital clubs. Even then he was familiar with future colleagues from the “Star Factory” -, Dino MS 47,.

"Star Factory"

Dominic announced himself to the general public in 2004, becoming a participant in the “Star Factory - 4” project. This show gave young man many new opportunities, which he immediately took advantage of.

Having been nominated together with Timati after the 3rd week, Joker lost to him in points and dropped out of the project. But the producer brought the singer back, and a week later the duet “Mom, I Love You” premiered, which Dominic performed together with Nastya Kochetkova.

The Joker did not look like a pop singer at all: a well-fed young man (the musician weighs about 80 kg and is 172 cm tall) with a rustic face did not seem future star stage, but his perseverance and musical abilities allowed him to break into big stage. Dominic teamed up with three project participants: Timati, Ratmir Shishkov and Nastya Kochetkova, forming the R"n"B band "Banda".

After the end of the “Factory” the guys began to perform, tour lasted 1.5 years. At the same time, the group released an album with the ambitious title “New People”. “Banda” quickly became popular, especially since the performers waged an “offensive on all fronts”, releasing 2 videos for songs from the new album into rotation.

The guys confidently walked towards success until a tragedy occurred in 2007: one of the group members, Ratmir Shishkov, died. The remaining participants, connected not only by work, but also by friendship, decided to close the project because they could not imagine its work without their deceased comrade.

Later, Dominic Joker will return to the project that gave him all-Russian popularity. In 2011, he will become a participant in the TV show “Star Factory. Return”, where others will also appear.

Music

Dominic got busy again solo career. A talented composer began to invite many superstars to collaborate Russian stage. The musician became a songwriter for bands, performers, etc. For 4 years in a row, since 2004, Joker was nominated for the Song of the Year award. In 2008, he worked as a sound producer for the show “You are a Superstar,” where experienced but undeservedly forgotten stars of the 80s and 90s competed with each other.

IN next year the artist released the first solo album « Real people”, which brings together all the cream of the material accumulated over 10 years of experience in show business. In 2012, his popularity rose to new heights: the piercing and bright soul ballad “If you are with me” conquered the Russian stage.

The composition was put on ringtones, ordered on the radio in live – music world literally feverish with a new melody. For this song, Joker received the Golden Gramophone and won the Radio Takeoff 2012 nomination from the Top Hit Music Awards.

Dominic didn’t stop there, experimenting with the form and content of the songs. In the composition “Farewell,” the video for which was released in 2013, lovers of Russian poetry were surprised to find out that the performer set a poem to music.

In September of the same year, Dominic became a choir mentor in the Russia-1 musical project “Battle of the Choirs”. Joker's team took 3rd place in the project and attracted the attention of representatives of the Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games in Sochi. The choir met delegations of participants; between performances, the musicians shot an original video for the songs they performed, in which politicians and athletes were involved.

Soon Dominic presented new clip“I Breathe You” (sometimes this composition is called “I Breathe You”), which was dedicated to the Day. In 2015, the musician released new album“Deja Vu” and recorded the single “So One”, for which a video clip was shot the same year.

2016 became the year of duets for Dominic. He recorded 2 tracks, adding female vocals: Joker sang the composition “You Know” together with Katya Kokorina, the song “Where have you been” - with. On May 19, 2016, the artist gave his first big solo concert. The live performance took place at the “RED” club, main theme The show, like all of the musician’s creativity, was love.

In February 2017, Dominic became a guest of the popular talk show “Tonight”, dedicated to “Star Factory” and further biographies participants of the sensational music project. In addition to the Joker, other famous “manufacturers” also took part in the program: , and others.

Personal life

Dominic for a long time was an exemplary family man And loving father. The Joker's first wife was Albina. After marriage, the girl, in accordance with traditions, changed her last name and became Albina Breslavskaya. The musician did not like to talk about his personal life and his household, but general information still shared, and once a couple even gave joint interview.

U married couple two sons born in 2007 and 2008 - Martin and Marcus. The performer spoke warmly about his sons, talking about sporting achievements the older and demanding character of the younger Breslavsky.

In 2014, information appeared in the press that Dominic left his wife and children for the sake of the young singer Ekaterina Kokorina, whom he met at the “Battle of the Choirs.” The musician’s wife calmly accepted his departure; she told reporters that there had been problems in the family for a long time and things were heading towards divorce.

Dominic's acquaintance with new darling happened after the breakup with Albina. Initially, artists were limited only business communication. The Joker made Katya responsible for the behavior of the participants choir group during a trip to Sochi. Only on a casual date did a spark flash between the young people.

The Joker's sons were very upset that their parents no longer lived together and their father at one time stopped communicating with them, citing being busy.

Now the relationship between the ex-spouses has improved. Albina now has a young man, and the boys alternately live either in their father’s house or with their mother.

In December 2014, Dominic Joker moved out of his and his wife Albina’s shared apartment in the center of Moscow. As it turned out, the reason was banal - the artist had a new lover - singer Ekaterina Kokorina. " We really love each other, but for now I’m afraid to tell the details: it could harm my new project,” admitted Ekaterina.

ON THIS TOPIC

Little is known about Kokorina. She came to conquer Moscow from Barnaul. Despite all the hardships metropolitan life, the 27-year-old blonde still managed to make it to the finals of the “Battle of the Choirs” show, where she represented the Altai Choir. It was there that the aspiring star met Dominic Joker, and later became a participant in the show “The Voice.”

Friends and relatives took the breakup of the family calmly, as if everything was going that way. Two sons are suffering from the incident: nine-year-old Martin and six-year-old Marcus. They practically stopped seeing their father. His wife Albina is also worried, but tries not to show that she is offended.

“My mother and our nanny are very helpful with the children now, sometimes my mother-in-law comes, the teacher comes to improve her English. The eldest son is engaged in figure skating, we are still thinking about where to send the youngest. Our dad rarely sees his children. Very busy. Recently they went to play paintball. And November 4th was my birthday. We got together with friends at the Uryuk restaurant. The husband, of course, was not there. He's on tour. He called, congratulated, and promised to give a gift later. The children presented a drawing in which a woman holds two boys by the hands - the father is simply not there. And they wrote to back side: “Mommy, we love you!”, quotes Dominic Joker’s wife Albina Starhit.

Dominic himself is everything free time spends with new lover. The other day the couple attended the opening of the musician’s art studio. As it appears, the singer's new passion was able to quickly find a common language with his mother. On Larisa Breslavskaya’s VKontakte page, Ekaterina Kokorina is included in the list of relatives along with the woman’s son, the publication notes. Dominic himself is in no hurry to share the news about his divorce and introduce Kokorin secular society as new girl. On the page in in social networks The artist’s marital status – married – has not changed.

One of the most lyrical singers and composers Russian stage- Dominic Joker will perform a concert today in St. Petersburg. The singer shared details of his personal life with Life for the first time and said that the recently held big solo concert in Moscow was completely staged by his girlfriend Ekaterina Kokorina.

I just recently gave a big solo album for Moscow, a big solo concert, the first in 15 years. I didn't know that a big solo concert was somehow different from the usual ones solo concerts, which I give in other cities. We prepared it for four months. My significant other directed it. The girl who begins filming a video today under my strict guidance is Katya Kokorina, for the sake of this concert she postponed the start of her solo project for four months. Here it is, love! She directed the entire scenario, shouting from above. If anyone was at a concert and saw a little man screaming, it was Katya Kokorina,” said Dominic.

According to him, meeting his soulmate happened suddenly for him, but now Katya is already familiar with his children and gets along well with them.

We met when I was selecting vocalists for the “Battle of the Choirs”, somehow it all happened, completely suddenly. At that time I had a rather strained relationship with my wife. Well, we have an excellent relationship with my ex-wife, we get along great, yesterday was my parents’ day, Katya and I took the little ones and went to buy them all sorts of summer things. I believe that a bad peace is better than a good quarrel. Children don’t feel offended,” Joker noted.

“I am in contact with Albina’s other half, she has a wonderful young man, an athlete, she can tell Martin something, since Martin is a serious athlete - a figure skater, so I don’t see a problem in this,” said Dominic.

The singer also said that he believes in love at first sight and is confident that it can save the world.

I believe love at first sight, I don’t believe there is any other kind of love. I watched this in films, when yesterday it was just a friend, and today... This is also love at first sight, which means that yesterday there was a different look. I believe that if anything can save this world, which is heading into the abyss, it is love. Not necessarily for your soulmate - love for the city you live in, for the street. Love in its purest form can save this world,” added the Joker.

He said that today at the concert he was going to show “the ontology of himself” and feel nostalgic.

Today I want to show Peter the ontology of my beloved self, I want to go back to 2000, when we were “Twice Two,” and sing the songs of “Gang,” the composer summed up.

Albina and Alexander Breslavsky (real name of Dominic Joker) got married in 2006. This marriage produced two children: Martin, who is now 10 years old, and Makrus, who is seven.

However, the couple could not save their family and have been living with other people for several years. Dominic met Ekaterina in 2013 during a casting for the television project “Battle of the Choirs,” where he was one of the mentors and Kokorina was a contestant. “I liked Katyusha right away. Both externally and as a creative person. I selected her to join my team. As a result, we sang perfectly - in the literal sense of the word. Our guys, the finalists of the project, were invited to perform at the Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games in Sochi. And it was there that I decided that if I missed Katya, I would regret it all my life. On our last day in Sochi, I invited her to a restaurant. Or rather, I invited all the guys, but asked them to come later. That's why Katya and I found ourselves alone. To her question “Where is everyone?” replied: “I don’t know. They'll probably do." We were so good together that Katya soon forgot that we were waiting for someone... Then she had to return to Barnaul. But then she came to see me in Moscow. First - for a visit, and then - for good. Since then we have not parted."

Ekaterina Kokorina and Dominic Joker met in 2013 and have not separated since then

In an interview with Telenedelya, Joker admitted that he and Albina did not have a tragic breakup. Something went wrong in the family long before meeting Catherine. He and his wife could not stay together, so they separated. “Naturally, I left the apartment to my wife and children. The musicians from my team rehearsed and lived in the Snegiri complex near Moscow. At one time I also hung out there. We toured a lot, wandered around cities and towns. When we returned to Moscow, I lived in the country. Divorce was a joint decision between Albina and me. Unfortunately, people disagree. This is sad, of course, but it means it’s necessary. We divorced not because of infidelity, not because someone else appeared. It’s just that life together logically ended. I didn’t rush into a new relationship - first of all, I threw myself into work. And then I met Katya..."

Martin and Marcus continue to feel their father's love

Now the singer’s ex-wife is happy with another person. They continue to raise their sons together and do everything so that the hype about the divorce does not affect their condition. “We must give credit to both Katya and Albina - they found a common language. Perhaps that’s why the guys calmly accepted Katyusha’s appearance. She was able to build great relationships with Martin and Marcus. The guys grow up knowing that they have two homes, and they like it. When the youngest, Marik, gets tired on a walk, he suggests: “Come to us.” For him there is no division between mom’s family and dad’s family. Apparently, Albina and Artem and Katya and I managed to create a good atmosphere, since the children live an easy and calm life. When I see the happy smiles of my sons, I am happy too: it means we did everything right,” says Dominic.
