Modern domestic show business is a special and in some way separated from the rest of civilization world, in which slightly different people live, with their own worries, affairs and quirks.

Man cannot live without music, his structure is so strange. Music and songs are always in our heads and souls throughout life. Who in Russia contributes to what we hear and what we listen to? Let's talk about “women who sing...”.
The youngest singers
The Russian stage today is “staffed”, and new young stars appear on it less and less often. Although, it is worth noting that our singers look so good on stage and screens that it is difficult to guess their age.
But just a couple of years ago, the music charts were completely under attack. young singers. Largely thanks to the “Star Factory,” girls who were far from even reaching adulthood began to appear more and more often at concerts and on the radio. The Forge of Stars gave the stage Yulia Savichev, Victoria Daineko, Polina Gagarin and many other beautiful and talented singers. Today these girls have already achieved a lot: they have their own albums, awards, participation in the most prestigious competitions and charts. But, alas, age takes its toll, and they no longer make it into the top three of the “Youngest Singers of Russia 2015” rating.
Of course, it is indecent to find out and announce a woman’s age, so let’s talk only about three representatives of the fair sex with good vocal abilities. One can still not hide the age of these singers, but, on the contrary, be proud that the girls became famous at their age:
3. Yulia Parshuta ( former member group "Yin-Yang"), a native of the resort city of Sochi. This year she turned 27 years old.
2. Nyusha (Anna Vladimirovna Shurochkina), place of birth in Moscow, will celebrate her 25th anniversary in August of this year.
3. Nyuta Ranetka (Anna Dmitrievna Baidavletova) comes from Stavropol. This November, the talented and cheerful girl will turn 23 years old.
Honored and beloved singers of Russia
Everything comes and goes, but art and music live forever. Just as music, songs and singers whom we have known and loved for a very long time live in our hearts. For many, they evoke warm memories of childhood, carefree youth or blooming youth. Their songs are stories of love, sadness, joy and destinies.
Folk singers of Russia represent entire eras both in the country’s musical chronicle and in the life of almost every citizen. There may be plenty of merits, awards and victories in various tops, but not everyone is awarded the title “People’s Artist of Russia (RSFSR, USSR)”.
1. Pugacheva A. B. received this title in 1985, 1980 and 1991.
2. Rotaru S.M. - in 1988
3. Allegrova I. A. - in 2010
4. Zykina L.G. - in 1973
5. Tolkunova V. V - in 1987
The most persistent
Musical preferences change with each new generation. Once upon a time they loved romances, then rock and roll, pop music, chanson, rap, and so on ad infinitum. It is very difficult to always be on the crest of a musical wave. But there are Russian singers whom we have known for a very long time, they grow creatively and change before the eyes of their beloved listeners.
