Voice, shocking, romance with the most famous singer in the country and a sudden disappearance from the starry sky. Sergey Chelobanov is the most private and scandalous singer of the 90s, whose magnetism and talent still arouse interest among music connoisseurs.
Uninvited guest
It may seem that Sergei Vasilyevich Chelobanov has completely disappeared from the screens, but this is not so. Yes, he does not collect stadiums and does not participate in national concerts. But he willingly gives concerts in clubs where his most devoted fans come to listen to music.
Sergey Chelobanov burst into the musical get-together in the early nineties after Alla Pugacheva herself saw the beginning musician. Prior to that, Sergei wrote songs and made arrangements for other musicians. At the same time, he did not have a classical music education, only an unfinished music school. The musician managed to serve in the army, serve in prison, get married, and play in several musical groups.
Chelobanov was unusual for the music of that time: in both voice and manner of performance, he sharply differed from the usual stars. When Pugacheva listened to Chelobanov's songs on the cassette, which was given to her by Vladimir Presnyakov Jr., who spoke enthusiastically about the singer, she immediately invited Sergei to visit. And from that first meeting in Pugacheva's apartment, a new musical tandem began. Not only musical. Although both at that moment were not free. The creative union, fueled by romantic feelings, was a great success. Chelobanov recorded his first album "Uninvited Guest", the title song of which was performed in a duet with Alla Pugacheva. After the release of the video, shot for the song "Uninvited Guest", rumors around this couple only flared up. In 1991, Chelobanov first appeared at Christmas meetings. And after that, concerts, video shooting, new songs began. Chelobanov even managed to write several songs for the cinema and himself starred in small roles in the films "God's Creature" and "Julia".
Stop the music
In just four years of active creativity, Chelobanov recorded three albums. The artist's last album was released in 2000. But before that there was a long period of oblivion. Chelobanov parted with Pugacheva and his musical career slowed down. He returned to Saratov to his family, Pugacheva divorced Yevgeny Boldin and after a while married Philip Kirkorov. Chelobanov was very worried about the betrayal of his beloved woman. This only aggravated the musician's addictions, as it is no secret that he was addicted to illegal drugs. The artist's wife nevertheless persuaded him to undergo treatment in the clinic, after Chelobanov's heart stopped at one of the concerts.
In the late 2000s, Sergey Chelobanov again began to conquer television broadcasts. He became a participant in the show "You are a superstar", where he simply stunned the audience with his return. The singer did not lose his talent, but, on the contrary, began to approach each number creatively. Unfortunately, after such a bright performance, Chelobanov again became hostage to clubs and corporate events. The reason here, most likely, lies in the absence of a strong producer and Sergey's unwillingness to sell his talent.
Now Sergey Vasilyevich Chelobanov can be seen as a guest on various TV shows. The last time he appeared on television after the birth of a son from a young common-law wife. With his wife Lyudmila, the singer broke up by mutual agreement, and the sons have already grown up. Chelobanov's stability is so far only in alcohol scandals. It's a pity.
