Elena Vaenga is not for nothing called the most closed representative of our show business. She practically does not give interviews, and prefers to talk about her life in her songs. This leads to the emergence of many rumors and speculations about the life of the singer. But it seems that Elena Vaenga does not touch this much. She lives by her own principles, still does not consider herself a real singer, and even more so - a star. Now she is in a second marriage, but her ex-husband receives half of all her royalties.

Severe childhood

From the very childhood she was brought up in severity and taught to live in accordance with a clear schedule drawn up by her parents. At that time, the strict regime, daily jogging at six in the morning regardless of the weather and in the Far North, a bunch of circles and sections and punishment in the form of extraordinary washing of dishes seemed to Elena Khruleva (the singer's real name) a real mockery.

Today, she tirelessly thanks her father and mother for the lessons they have taught. Thanks to the harsh children's everyday life, the performer has formed a truly steel and even somewhat masculine character. They not only demanded from her, but also invariably supported her in her work. The first song was written by Elena at the age of 9, and after that she participated in competitions, entered the music school in St. Petersburg, graduated from it and became a student of LGITMiK in order to fulfill her dream of a career as a dramatic actress.

She did not graduate from LGITMiK then, but she will receive a diploma in dramatic art later, when she learns that Pyotr Velyaminov himself is enrolling in the department of theater art at the Baltic Institute. And at the time of creative throwing in the life of the future star, a man will appear who will radically change all her plans.

Faith and love

Ivan Ivanovich Matvienko appeared in Elena's life quite by accident. Once she stopped a taxi on the street, but instead of him there was a car next to her, driven by an imposing man. He drove the girl home and did not forget to take the phone number at parting.

In the evening of the next day, Elena got into his car again, now going on a date. She checked her passport, which did not contain any marks about her wife and children, and since then began to meet with Ivan. After a short time, they already lived together. And although they were not officially painted, Elena Vaenga considers Ivan Ivanovich to be her first husband.

True, in relations with him, everything was not so smooth. At first, Ivan did not get to know Elena's family for three years, after that he pulled out with a proposal. And when he nevertheless called the singer to marry, she suddenly refused. As Elena herself says, she simply did not want to go to the registry office out of harm. Previously, she really wanted to become Ivan's wife, he did not call her at that time. And yet Ivan Matvienko played a fateful role in her life.

It was he who once, having heard Elena sing, said: people should hear this. And then he devoted many years to promoting the singer. He even sold his own apartment in St. Petersburg just to record Elena Vaenga's first album. Even when she herself lost heart and no longer wanted to do anything, he continued to believe in her.

Once the singer signed an agreement with a Moscow producer, but he not only did not fulfill his obligations, but also deprived Elena Khruleva of the right to use her own surname. Then my mother came up with a pseudonym for her daughter - Vaenga - by the name of the river, flowing in the places where Elena was born and raised.

Ivan Ivanovich became for Elena not just a husband and a producer, but almost a father. Caring and kind, allowing her everything and ready to pamper her all the time. By the way, Ivan Matvienko remains the producer even now, when they have not lived together for a long time. As Elena Vaenga says, he will always be a close and dear person for her. Of all her royalties, she gives him half. This is her decision and her own choice. Once he invested everything that he had in it, and therefore, according to the singer, he has the right to half of her income.

Elena Vaenga dedicated many touching songs to Ivan Matvienko. In them everything is about her and about him, about their love and separation. You just need to hear the words and music that comes from the heart. The decision to part ways was not easy for the performer. She calls the main reason for this inability to have children together. If someone tries to delve into this topic, the singer categorically cuts off: "This is very personal."

Prayer Happiness

And later in the life of Elena Vaenga, Roman Sadyrbaev, a musician from her team, appeared. More precisely, it was before that. But one day, when Elena Vaenga was in the monastery, praying for the health of her sister who was struggling with cancer, she suddenly asked God to give her a husband. Well, so that he would at least come up to her on the bus.

In the bus in which the whole group was traveling on tour, Roman Sadyrbaev really approached her. He just saw what Elena was in and felt sorry for her. And then, already at the hotel, he helped her wash her hair and comb her hair, because the exhausted performer at that time cried all the time when she was not on stage.

In the morning after that, Elena met Roman in the morning at breakfast and said, trying to joke: "My grandmother used to say: if a man combed a woman's hair, he will certainly marry her." Roman then only chuckled: he already had someone to marry. But as a result he married Elena.

Now they are raising their son Ivan together, whom Elena Vaenga also begged. It was the son who became the most important man in her life, her happiness and her hope. True, the singer believes that she could become a mother of at least five children, but this did not happen. And so she thanks God for having Ivan.

However, she knows exactly why everything in her life develops in one way or another. She believes in the boomerang law and knows that good or bad things that she did to people come back to her a hundredfold. And all the songs of Elena Vaenga come true, so she never sings the two songs she wrote and hopes that she will not be able to perform them for a long time. As long as those to whom she dedicated them are alive.

Surprisingly, Elena Vaenga does not consider herself either a star or a real singer. She considers many to be smarter, more talented and more significant than herself. She is called one of the most successful Russian performers, and she still cannot realize that this is all about her. And he thanks those people who believed in her and put their knowledge, their wisdom, their love into her: parents, grandmother, Ivan Ivanovich and actor Pyotr Velyaminov, who taught her to be herself on stage.

Elena Vaenga was always grateful to her teacher Peter Velyaminov. The magnitude of the talent of this actor cannot be overestimated. Pyotr Velyaminov did not have a theatrical education, but his innate self-esteem and devotion to his chosen profession were fully present. He went through 9 years in the camps, but he was not disappointed in life, he was not embittered, he was always extremely honest with himself and with the people around him.
