About the group: In 1994, two Andreys - Grozny and Shlykov brought together a trio of beautiful girls Olga Orlova, Polina Iodis, Varvara Koroleva and called new group"Brilliant." It is this composition of the group that is still considered “golden”, since it was during the two years of the quartet’s existence that the “Brilliant” group achieved its greatest popularity.

Composition of the group “Brilliant”:

In 2000, the group released the album “About Love”, as well as a collection best songs"White snow" During the same period, the author of many compositions, Olga Orlova, left the group and was replaced by Yulia Kovalchuk in August 2001. In 2002, the next creation was released - the album “Beyond the Four Seas”. In 2003, Irina Lukyanova left the “Brilliant” group, who, like Olga Orlova in her time, was about to give birth to a child.

At the same time, Zhanna Friske left the group and began solo career under the wing of the former producer. In April 2004, Nadya Ruchka joined the group and the trio again turned into the “Brilliant” quartet, which began work on a new album. In place of Semenovich, Anastasia Osipova is taken into the group. Anna’s departure entailed the departure of another girl - the “long-liver” of the group, Ksenia Novikova.

In 2000, the album “About Love” was released, followed by “White Snow”. In December of the same year, the group “Brilliant” was photographed for FHM magazine. In the same year, an album of remixes of the group was released: “There, only there (remixes).” Another pretty blonde has joined the “Brilliant” group.

She is immediately replaced by two girls, Zhanna Friske and Irina Lukyanova. It is this composition of the group that is still considered “golden”, since it was during the two years of the quartet’s existence that the “Brilliant” group achieved its greatest popularity. Next comes an album of remixes: “There, only there (remixes).”

In 1998, “Brilliant” released the next album, “Just Dreams,” then Polina left the group and for some time “Brilliant” again became a trio. But in August 1999, a fourth member, Novikova Ksenia, appeared in the team.

In 2000, the group released the album “About Love”, as well as a collection of the best songs “White Snow”.

In 2002, the next creation was released - the album Over the Four Seas.

In 2003, Irina Lukyanova left the “Brilliant” group, who, like Olga Orlova, had to give birth to a child. Former gymnast Irina Lukyanova was replaced by Anna Semenovich, master of sports in figure skating, who very organically fit into the general rhythm of the group. Soon a new album, “Orange Paradise,” was released, and the composition of the same name became very popular. At the same time, Zhanna Friske left the group and began a solo career under the wing of her former producer.

In place of Semenovich, Anastasia Osipova is taken into the group. Anna’s departure entailed the departure of another girl - the “long-liver” of the group, Ksenia Novikova. This is how Zhanna Friske’s younger sister Natalya Friske appeared in the group, who was introduced to the world in October 2007 at the MTV RMA awards ceremony, where the group “Brilliant” performed with an expanded lineup, inviting almost everyone to participate in the show former members project "Brilliant".

She will be replaced by Marina Berezhnaya.

Thus, in 2009, the group included Nadezhda Ruchka, Anastasia Osipova, Anna Dubovitskaya and Marina Berezhnaya.

In 2011, the producers managed to lure Ksenia Novikova back into the group, creating the first quintet in the history of “Brilliant”. The new line-up has already recorded the single “Love”, fans of the group are waiting for a new video.

Polina Iodis and Varvara Koroleva, “Brilliant”


In 1995, Polina Iodis abandoned her studies at law school and began a stage career. Polina sang in the first cast of “Brilliant”. Tours, videos, fans, fees... But one day Polina realized that all this was not for her. She was attracted by the ocean and surfing! The decision was made: a break with my past life, and a little later - a move to Bali. Polina became one of the founders of the Surfing Federation and the Russian Championship in this sport, which she herself won for three years in a row. Polina organizes events, surf camps in Europe, writes articles and films what she loves so much and what she lives by. Nicole, Polina's daughter, appeared in Bali.

Alena Vinnitskaya, “Via Gra”

“Alena, save yourself before it’s too late!” - this phrase from the song “Attempt No. 5” was picked up by the whole country. Alena (whose real name is Olga) in a duet with Granovskaya took on the leading solo parts, so Nadezhda, without a twinge of conscience, decided to improve her personal life, but returned to the group a few weeks after the birth of the baby. After this, the fickle Granovskaya left VIA Gro and returned again, so she became a real star team. And Vinnitskaya, having survived four more personnel changes, left “ VIA Gra” in 2003, starting a solo career. Now Alena lives and works in her homeland - Ukraine. For many years Alena has been faithful to her husband, producer Sergei Alekseev, whom she married back in 1995. The couple has no children.

Maria Alalykina, “Factory”


Masha left the group quite quickly (in August 2003) to devote herself to her family. But few people know that the former artist not only got married, but converted to Islam! This was demanded by Masha’s husband, lawyer Alexei Zuenko, to whom Alalykina gave birth to a daughter. True, family happiness did not last long: the man left Masha for another. Alalykina did not take off her hijab and is now raising her daughter Katya in the traditions of Islam.

Elizaveta Rodnyanskaya, “Hands Up!”


“Student”, “Move your body” and, of course, “Song” from the first album “Breathe Evenly” were recorded with the participation of Lisa. Together with the guys, she also starred in the insert of the debut cassette, where she was listed as a member of the group. Rodnyanskaya regularly performed with Zhukov and Potekhin, but Elizaveta no longer worked on the second record. The singer began to develop own project MeliSSa, where he still works.

This year, the Russian female pop group Once again changed the composition of the team

On a grand scale men's group « Ivanushki International"celebrates its 20th anniversary. But the girls’ group “Brilliant” missed their anniversary. As it turned out, there were discussions about the celebration, but quickly died down. Perhaps the culprit was another shift team.

To tell the truth, the soloists changed so often and presented new line-up that the audience lost count. In total, there were 17 members in the group, who from time to time not only left, but also returned. Like, for example, Ksenia Novikova, who left the team in 2007 and again became a member four years later. Now Novikova has again left her native birds, but, as she claims, forever. The singer, about a month ago, married a businessman named Alexey and is now creating her own group called “Ksyusha”. Not long ago, the singer even held an open casting. To select contestants for a vacant position, all you had to do was download and fill out a form from the official website and send it by email.

Yes, I left the group, but still my final point will be the New Year’s performance as part of “Brilliant”. “I can’t let down my colleagues and viewers who may be expecting to see me,” Ksenia Novikova shared with MK. - Then our paths diverge. We parted on a positive note and, in principle, my departure was expected. First Nastya Osipova left, and then I left. In 2007 I left the group for personal reasons. After all, in a stage race you can be left without everything, as they say, “without a kitten and a child.” I became a mother twice and returned to my native harbor. But now is the time for free swimming. I can’t say that the music of the Ksyusha group will be radically different from what I’m performing by Blestyashchiye. Today, a new branch in popular music didn't come up with it. Our group, which includes three girls, has already signed up for six funny songs- about love, about women's joys and all kinds of women's things. Of course, I know that new girls have come to Blestyashchiye, and I hope that the team will benefit from this and finally move on with dead center– the singer summed up.

Besides Novikova, the most bright soloists the groups were Olga Orlova, Yulia Kovalchuk and Nadya Ruchka. The handle is the guardian of the group, which will soon celebrate its 12th anniversary.

Why is everyone asking about my leaving? “I feel good with the group so far, which means it should be so,” Nadya began her conversation. – there are two reasons to go solo: the desire to be alone on stage, as if in the center, and a real desire to speak out and contribute something of your own. I am absolutely not tormented by the fear of “getting lost in the crowd” of my own team. I understand perfectly well that if you work well and you are interesting, then you will be seen and celebrated, no matter how many people are on stage. And I will do something of my own only when I absolutely clearly see myself as a solo unit, and I know that I have something of my own to give, something new, different from the previous one. Otherwise, I just feel sorry for the time and money it takes to shoot videos and search for repertoire if I essentially don’t change anything. This is my vision.. As for changes in the group, the appearance of new soloists has been prepared for a long time. And we have already managed to shoot a video for the song “Brigada”

True, none of the interviewed soloists gave a clear answer about the group’s anniversary, citing the fact that it was not they who decided the issue of celebration.
