The singer graduated from school with a gold medal. Her parents asked Khasanova to get a “human” profession, so she entered the Faculty of Law of the Russian State University of Oil and Gas. Gubkin, which she successfully graduated in 2014. “I always knew that I would connect my life with music and would make a living by singing. But getting higher education was an obligatory point in my life,” she said in an interview with the student magazine Kerosene.

Khasanova’s great musical career began in 2014. The girl went to Ukraine and took part in the show “X-Factor 5”. She managed to achieve success at several stages, but she did not reach the final: Ivan Dorn kicked her out of the project.

After this, fame came to Khasanova: she began performing at concerts and even tried herself as a model. In addition, she became the triumphant of the first all-Russian competition"Tatar Kyzy", receiving the title of the most musical girl.

In 2015, the young performer was among those selected by composer Igor Krutoy for the semi-finals of the New Wave competition. Then Khasanova admitted that she had dreamed about this all her life.

The singer's finest hour was her participation in the project " New factory stars", which ended in early December. She performed on stage with such famous artists as Dima Bilan and Natalya Podolskaya. Khasanova managed to become the winner of the competition.

Not much is known about the performer’s personal life. Apparently, she carefully hides this information from prying eyes.

Nikita Kuznetsov – Russian rap artist, also known under the pseudonym Mastank, participant in the TV show “New Star Factory”. As a result of the project, he took second place and received the title of the most promising of all “manufacturers”.

Nikita’s idol is rapper Guf: Kuznetsov admitted that he grew up listening to his songs and, in general, discovered rap thanks to him. In general, he grew up as a very reserved child, he had few friends, and that’s all. free time he devoted himself to creativity.


After graduating from school, Kuznetsov worked as a bartender, but at the same time continued to study music. Under the pseudonym Mastank, Nikita performed his songs at various concerts and music festivals Neryungri and by 2015 had become a fairly well-known personality throughout the city.

Nikita Kuznetsov and “New Star Factory”

On September 2, 2017, the “New Star Factory” project was launched on the Muz-TV channel under the leadership of Viktor Drobysh, one of the participants of which was Kuznetsov.

Since childhood, I have dreamed of carving out my niche in hip-hop culture. It won't be easy, but I will try to be the best.

On the first reporting concert the young performer, together with Sergei Zhukov, the lead singer of the group “Hands Up,” sang the song “When We Were Young.”


In subsequent performances, Kuznetsov shared the stage with such famous performers as Keti Topuria, the group “SunStroke Project”, “Disco Accident” and “Estradarada”, Nastasya Samburskaya and Shura. At one of the concerts Nikita sang his own song“It’s not a problem,” which immediately sunk into the hearts of the young artist’s fans.

At one of the interviews, Kuznetsov admitted that it was difficult for him to be in a factory “house” - in a closed room, where everything is monotonous and monotonous. The artist said that he was used to running errands all day, meeting with different people and spend a lot of time on fresh air, whereas new life more like school times, overshadowed by the same faces.

Very soon the legendary competition will appear on screens again. The MUZ-TV channel has already announced casting for a television program with a slightly changed name - “New Star Factory”!

Absolutely anyone from 15 to 29 years old gets a chance to become famous like Polina Gagarina, Elena Temnikova or Natalya Podolskaya. The list of “Factory” finalists from past years who were able to gain fame and popularity is quite extensive, which greatly increases the excitement on the eve of the upcoming show.

The main requirement of the project editors: participants must be able to sing, write lyrics and melodies. Only 16 contestants will fight for a place in the sun. In the meantime, the editors of Woman’s Day remembered the fates of the finalists of all past seasons of the reality show.

“Star Factory” by Igor Matvienko

First place – group “Roots”

The guys from the “Roots” group, who took first place, were predicted to have a bright future. At first, they really kept the bar and were in great demand: they toured Russia, recorded soundtracks for films and TV series. But by 2010, popularity began to decline and the group broke up, and popular hits are heard only at school discos.

Lesha Kabanov and Sasha Berdnikov today are exemplary family men, Pasha Artemyev continues to make music and even created his own indie group ARTEMIEV, and Sasha Astashenok managed to appear in films, although especially significant roles he was not observed.

Second place – group “Factory”

But the girl band “Factory”, which took second place, managed to break through to fame. The debut album “Factory Girls” went on sale in 2004. The entire circulation was sold out in a few days. Irina, Alexandra and Sati continued to record new compositions and star in videos. A year later, such songs as “It’s not my fault” and “He” were released. The compositions instantly became real hits. Even producer Igor Matvienko did not expect such success. During their career, the “manufacturers” produced 3 studio albums, 22 singles and 16 videos. They gave hundreds of concerts in major cities Russia and CIS countries. They have six Golden Gramophone awards to their name.

Until now, the “factory girls” delight fans with regular performances, however, only Alexandra Savelyeva and Irina Toneva remain from the old lineup. Sati Casanova left the group in 2010, and her place was taken by former member Hi-Fi groups Katya Lee.

As for the personal lives of girls, then everything is in in perfect order. Irina Toneva married 27-year-old dancer from Ukraine Alexey Brizh, and Alexandra Savelyeva is very happily married to actor Kirill Safonov, only Sati Casanova has not yet settled her personal life.

Third place – Mikhail Grebenshchikov

Third place in the project was taken by Mikhail Grebenshchikov, about whom nothing has been heard for a very long time. After “Star Factory,” the singer released only a couple of songs that were successful, but despite this, things didn’t go any further.

Misha has matured and no longer sings about “loaves, they’re rolls.” But now Grebenshchikov is an employee of the Ministry of Arts and a teacher at Alla Pugacheva’s children’s school.

First place – Polina Gagarina

Everyone dreams of repeating the success of Polina Gagarina. The singer took first place at the second “Star Factory”, made a brilliant solo career, took second place at the Eurovision Song Contest in 2015, became a mentor in the popular show “The Voice” on Channel One and, finally, became a happy wife and mother of two children .

In addition to everything listed above, Polina also changed dramatically in appearance and became simply beautiful. At the beginning of her career, the artist looked completely different, and then, unexpectedly for everyone, she lost weight, changed her image and began to prefer other outfits, which only benefited her. Today Gagarina is a real style icon.

Second place – Elena Terleeva

After completing her participation in the “Factory” show, Elena Terleeva threw herself into her studies: she intensively studied vocals, choreography and managed to work in jazz bands. After graduating from a music university in 2005, Elena met composer Alex Prusov and began preparing her first solo project, which included the songs “Between Me and You” and “Drop.”

Even the Moscow government appreciated the creativity of the aspiring star and awarded him the title “Golden Voice of Russia.” In 2005, Terleeva managed to become one of the contenders to participate in the Eurovision Song Contest. And two years later, she pleased fans with new hits: “Sun” and “Love Me”, for the first of which the singer received many awards: an award from the Golden Gramophone, laureate at the Song of the Year - 2007 competition.

Despite significant success, the girl was not completely satisfied with her life, because she always dreamed of performing in the jazz genre, but such music is not in great demand in Russia. For some time, Maxim Fadeev continued to promote the performer, but their joint collaboration was no longer so successful. Elena released several more songs, but her performances no longer caused the same sensation.

Third place – Elena Temnikova

The creative destiny of Elena Temnikova was more enviable than that of her namesake. Largely thanks to the provocative Serebro group, created under the leadership of Max Fadeev. In addition to Elena Temnikova, the ensemble included Marina Lizorkina and Olya Seryabkina. In May 2007, the girl group’s first single, “Song#1,” was released on the Monolith Records label. It was with this composition that the Serebro trio went to Eurovision. As a result, the group representing Russia took 3rd place at the competition in Helsinki. In April 2009, Serebro’s debut album, “Opium Roz,” went on sale.

Both the release and the subsequent tour in support of it turned out to be successful, but already in December information appeared that Temnikova was leaving the project. The reason for this was the singer’s conflict with Max Fadeev: the producer was dissatisfied with the romance between Lena and his younger brother Artem. However, then the artist still remained in the group. IN composed of Serebro she released the album "Mama Lover" in 2011. Most famous songs from it became “Mama Lyuba” and “Mi Mi Mi”. At the beginning of 2014, Elena Temnikova, due to emerging health problems, terminated her contract with Fadeev ahead of schedule, paying a large penalty.

After leaving Serebro, the singer took up solo career. In November 2014, she recorded the song “Addiction”, and in 2015 – the singles “Towards” and “Let’s Fly Away”. The last song, “Jealousy,” appeared in February 2016. In parallel with musical creativity Lena is trying her hand at television, creating designer jewelry for the Marmalato chain of stores.

First place – Nikita Malinin

Many participants in “Star Factory 3” did not like Nikita Malinin. They were sure that the guy got into the project thanks to famous father. From issue to issue, he never ceased to prove his singing talent. As a result, Nikita not only reached the finals, but also took first place. And several of his songs: “Kitten”, “Flash in the Night”, “Spring” became real hits. But Malinin’s popularity ended along with the project.

Rumor has it that the whole point is the producer of “Factory”, who immediately after the end of the broadcast ceased to be interested in his charges. Although, judging by Instagram, Nikita still sings, performs, gives concerts and records new tracks, but on big stage Apparently it's impossible to get through.

Second place – Alexander Kireev

Alexander Kireev took second place at the Star Factory in 2003. After the end of the show, the young man, together with Dmitry Golubev and Ruslan Barsukov, created the KGB group. At that time, such hits as “Masha + Sasha” and “Five Days of Love” were born, which won the “Bomb of the Year” and “Stopudovy Hit” awards. However, after some time the team broke up.

Now Kireev is better known as a composer of songs by Natalia Podolskaya. Sasha also hosted a program on the Carousel channel. He is also a member of the Russian Authors' Society and is involved in production activities.

Third place – Yulia Mikhalchik

To participate in “Star Factory - 3,” Yulia dropped out of university, but the game was worth the candle, because she managed to take third place on the project, thereby earning three videos, one album and a husband in the form of the show’s producer, Alexander Shulgin, from the judges as a gift! With which, by the way, nothing worked out for her.

Thus, singer Yulia Mikhalchik ascended to the Olympus of modern show business, but could not stay there. Sometimes the singer tries to release new compositions, but they do not become popular.

First place – Victoria Daineko

The winner of the project was Victoria Daineko. But this girl needs no introduction; everyone already knows how successful her career has been. Immediately after the show, the singer began actively collaborating with producer Igor Matvienko, under whose auspices the singles “I’ll Just Leave You Right Now,” “The Film Is Not About Love,” and “Needle” were recorded.

In 2011, Vika took part in the “Star Factory” project. Return”, where she competed with project graduates from different years. Victoria won this competition as well.

Things are sad for the artist only on the personal front. Romances with singers Pasha Artemyev, Dmitry Pakulichev and Alexey Vorobyov ended a few months later, leaving the girl with nothing. But in this area too, Daineko managed to gain the upper hand.

Last April, Victoria married musician Dmitry Kleiman, and a little later the couple had a daughter, but more recently it became known that the couple decided to divorce.

Second place – Ruslan Masyukov

Ruslan Masyukov, nicknamed the Russian Enrique Iglesias, took second place. Alla Pugacheva was confident that Masyukov, like Daineko, would achieve unattainable heights in the world of domestic show business. However, a year after the final, the singer simply disappeared from view. Later it turned out that he threw all his energy into studying abroad, forgetting for a while about his solo career. Of course, Masyukov thought that he would be able to return to the stage, but there were no interesting offers from the producers.

Only the owners of the capital's clubs happily invited the guy to perform, and he happily agreed. Today Ruslan still sings for a very narrow circle. He also works as a VJ on the RuTv channel.

Third place – Natalya Podolskaya and Mikhail Veselov

Third place was shared between Natalya Podolskaya and Mikhail Veselov. After “Star Factory,” Natalya signed a contract with Viktor Drobysh and soon released her debut album. This was followed by failure at the Eurovision Song Contest 2005, where the singer represented Russia. Despite careful preparation, the song that Natalya performed took only 15th place. But the red-haired beauty did not give up, having learned all the lessons from the defeat, she recorded new songs, starred in a video and went on tour around the country.

The girl also participated in many television shows, on one of which she met her future husband, singer Vladimir Presnyakov Jr., with whom she continued creative career, after the contract with Drobysh expired.

On this moment There is online voting on the website of the MUZ-TV channel. Viewers of the “New Star Factory” project are invited to vote for their favorite participant. Ulyana Sinetskaya, group “North 17”, Daniil Danilevsky, Guzel Khasanova, Elman Zeynalov and Nikita Mastank Kuznetsov qualified for the finals. In the meantime, StarHit did not wait for the results and prepared its own prize, which was presented by me, the creative editor of StarHit magazine Olga Rodina.

Dressed up in a sequin dress and dressed up, I arrived at Glavkino, where the filming of the project is taking place. Even before entering the main pavilion, I heard the frenzied screams of the spectators who greeted the manufacturers and the stars who performed a duet with them. Holding a StarHit diploma for photography and interviews, I sat almost next to the judges. The blue bandana of vocal teacher Vladimir Korobko, who has been teaching young artists for many years, immediately caught my eye. Viktor Drobysh sat in the center, next to him were Alla Dukhova and other members of the jury.

Then presenter Ksenia Sobchak appeared on stage in an incredibly beautiful dress to the floor, which, however, was a little torn during filming, but the costume designers quickly corrected the situation. Ksenia, like a true professional, was not even embarrassed.

Each participant prepared a brilliant performance for the final concert. For example, Ulyana Sinetskaya performed several songs with Valery Meladze. After a joint performance of Konstantin Meladze’s composition “Vera,” Sobchak could not stand it and asked: “Valery, admit it, when Konstantin wrote this song, was he thinking about Vera Brezhneva?” “I don’t know what I was thinking about, my brother, but I’m talking about something completely different,” Meladze became a little embarrassed. “What is Valery talking about?” - the TV presenter did not let up.

“I was thinking about how to make the viewer think about something good,” Valery answered. “I have a more global task - I convey some of the feelings that my brother put into the song.”

Elman Zeynalov chose Grigory Leps as his partner, but he was so excited when he found himself on the same stage that he didn’t even hear right away own voice during the performance. And the audience at this time shouted: “Leps, you are the best!” To which Grigory flirtatiously replied: “Before today I doubted it, but now...” Then Leps said: “Give me some sound, Elman can’t hear himself.” After singing the song “I’ll go live in London,” Ksenia Sobchak came on stage and showered Leps with compliments, and then asked to try on his glasses in order to touch the legend. The singer did not interfere with her.

Nikita Kuznetsov, whom StarHit noted as the most interesting and vibrant participant, performed in tandem with singer Slava. The star appeared on stage in a sparkling floor-length dress, and her ears were adorned with emerald earrings. After their performance, I came on stage as a representative of StarHit, which is one of the main media partners of the show. She presented Nikita with a certificate, congratulated him and wished to promote Guf himself. After all, Kuznetsov also raps and loves Alexei Dolmatov. But he will tell you everything himself when we do an interview and photo shoot with his participation for StarHit magazine.

The Star Factory project started in Russia in 2002. Then young musicians began to make their way into big show business through a talent competition that was watched by the whole country.
