In the 1990s. the group "Lyceum" was at the peak of popularity, the song "Autumn" is probably still remembered by many. Under this name, the group exists today, however, its composition has changed more than once, but none of them has become as popular and successful as the trio of Anastasia Makarevich, Elena Perova and Izolda Ishkhanishvili. The paths of the girls diverged back in the late 1990s. Who of them left the stage forever and settled on Rublevka, who continues to perform, and who, after a successful film and television career, ruined their reputation and disappeared from the screens - further in the review.
Anastasia Makarevich
The permanent leader of the group was Anastasia Makarevich. At birth, she received the surname Kapralova, but when she was 8 years old, her parents divorced, and soon her mother married a second time, to the musician Alexei Makarevich. He replaced Nastya's own father, who, after the divorce, did not participate in her upbringing. At the age of 16, when she received a passport, she took her stepfather's surname. Alexey was a cousin of Andrei Makarevich, he founded the Kuznetsky Most group and was the guitarist in the Resurrection group. Nastya grew up in a creative atmosphere and from childhood herself was carried away by music.
Once Alexei Makarevich came to a concert of the Children's Variety Theater, where Anastasia performed, and there he got the idea to create a girl's pop group. So in 1991 the Lyceum appeared, the first composition of which included 14-year-old Nastya Makarevich, Izolda Ishkhanishvili and 15-year-old Lena Perova. Alexey became the producer of the group and the author of most of their songs. After "Lyceum" made its debut in the TV program "Morning Star", the group began to be invited to perform together with eminent performers, and by the mid-1990s. the whole country already knew about them.
In parallel with her work at the Lyceum, Anastasia Makarevich received a higher musical education and graduated from the Faculty of Hotel Business and International Tourism of MESI. After Elena and Isolde left the group, the soloist performed with other participants. She is the only vocalist from the first line-up who remains in the Lyceum to this day. Of course, repeat the success of the 1990s. they failed, but the group regularly performs at concerts and corporate parties, goes on tour.
After Aleksey Makarevich passed away in 2014, his adopted daughter took over the duties of the group's producer. In parallel, she was engaged in a solo career, worked on television in the "Vremechko" program, taught vocals. In addition, Anastasia is a happy mother and wife. Together with her husband, lawyer Yevgeny Pershin, she is raising two sons. Their marriage is almost 20 years old.
Izolda Ishkhanishvili
Isolde Ishkhanishvili was called the brightest and most memorable beauty of the Lyceum. She was born and raised in Chernigov, where from the age of 4 she studied at a music school and sang in a children's ensemble. When she was 12, the family moved to Moscow. Here she continued her studies and performed at the Children's Variety Theater with Nastya Makarevich and Lena Perova.
Isolde devoted 10 years to the Lyceum group. When it seemed to her that she would never be able to get out of the shadow of the main star of the group - Anastasia Makarevich, she decided to leave the group. The producer reacted to this painfully, and did not call her otherwise than a "traitor". For some time, Isolde thought about continuing her career as a solo singer, but these plans were not destined to come true.
The girl often attended social events, and at one of them she met the construction magnate Dmitry Desyatnikov, whom she married. After that, she decided to leave the stage forever. In 2012, the couple had a son. The family lives in a luxurious mansion on Rublevka. When asked if she plans to return to solo activities, Isolde replies: "".
Elena Perova
Elena Perova was the oldest of the "lyceum students" - at the time of the founding of the group she was 15 years old. The first to draw attention to her talent was her half-brother, the famous TV presenter Sergei Suponev. It was he who took her to the vocal and choreographic group Detsky Mir, which was later transformed into the Children's Variety Theater.
Her interests were never limited only to singing - Elena Perova was a versatile gifted person, and her brother invited her to try herself as a TV presenter. This caused a conflict with the producer of the Lyceum group - according to the contract, the girls were not allowed to take part in side projects. Later she said: "".
In 1997, she left the Lyceum, but did not say goodbye to the stage - for two years she was the lead singer of the Amega group and at the same time continued to work on television. For 6 years she hosted the music talk show "Life is Beautiful". In 2000, Elena released her solo album "Fly the Sun", all the songs to which she wrote herself. In 2001, a misfortune happened - her brother Sergei Suponev crashed on a snowmobile, which severely crippled Perova.
Creativity helped her to survive this tragedy. In 2002, she tried her hand at being an actress, starring with Konstantin Khabensky in Philip Yankovsky's film On the Move. Her acting debut turned out to be very successful, other directors drew attention to her talent, and Perova played a small role in Andrei Konchalovsky's film "Gloss", as well as one of the main roles in all seasons of the series "Margosha". In 2013, Perova starred in the film "Angel or Demon", but at this her acting career was interrupted.
Since then, her name has been mentioned for several years only in connection with scandals. Twice she caused drunken accidents. She stopped appearing in public and giving interviews, and did not communicate with her former colleagues either. For a long time there were rumors that she had serious problems with alcohol, but she herself did not confirm or deny them. In 2017, Perova announced that she was working on an educational project for Children's Radio, but stopped participating in it the same year. With regard to her work, she says: "".
Not all of her colleagues managed to achieve success in the creative field: How did the fate of the actors of the series "Margosha".
