Cooperation	Biography Early years Ivan Shapovalov was born on May 28, 1966 in the city of Kotovo, Volgograd Region. Father - Nikolai Alexandrovich, artist. Mother - Nadezhda Richardovna, school physics teacher. Graduated from a correspondence school in physics and mathematics. In 1990, Shapovalov graduated and specialized in child and adolescent psychiatry, after which he worked as a doctor in a psychiatric hospital in the city of Balakovo and at the same time was engaged in private children's psychocorrectional practice. In 1992 he created the organization “Public Opinion Formation Service “Context””. The Company magazine reported that its services were used by the campaign headquarters of Dmitry Ayatskov during the gubernatorial elections. In 1992-1994, Shapovalov worked in the advertising and marketing department of the Slavia insurance company and non-governmental pension fund"Russian capital". Since 1993, he worked in Moscow branches of companies. During this time he met the composer Alexander Voitinsky. Since 1994, Shapovalov began working as a screenwriter for commercials. In 1996, he produced a commercial for the computer company R&K, in the script of which Norbert Wiener appeared, since the computers produced were released under the Wiener brand in honor of the founder of cybernetics. The video was voiced by Oleg Efremov. One of the founders of R&K, Boris Rensky, later became a financial sponsor and co-producer of the Tatu group. In 1998, Shapovalov filmed a commercial soft drinks“Drink drinks from Chernogolovka without stopping” by the company “OST”, in the dubbing of which Lena Katina, the future soloist of the group, took part. On the set, he met Elena Kiper, a journalist for the NTV television company (the “Vprok” program) and the future co-producer of the group. Since 1996, he worked at the Russian Wine and Vodka Company (RVVK). In 1997-1998 he worked at the advertising agency Ark J. Walter Thompson. Producing the group “t.A.T.u.” In 1999, Shapovalov and Voitinsky held a casting for the role of the soloist, as a result of which Lena Katina was chosen. Several songs were recorded (including “I am your enemy”, “Yugoslavia” - on the theme of NATO military aggression against Yugoslavia). Later, a second girl was invited to the group - Yulia Volkova. Shapovalov became the producer of the group “t.A.T.u.” and director of the Neformat company (production center of I. Shapovalov). 2004-2008 In 2004, Shapovalov began producing Nato singer Natalya Shevlyakova from Chelyabinsk, who met Shapovalov during his work in Podnebesnaya. His plans included a performance by a singer dressed as a suicide bomber. On the anniversary of the terrorist attack of September 11, 2001 in the United States, Shapovalov tried to organize a concert in the Hall of Columns of the House of Unions, where the singer was planned to perform in the outfit of a suicide bomber. In this regard, a representative of the Ministry of Culture and Mass Communications of the Russian Federation expressed his concern, the action was called politically incorrect, and the concert was cancelled. After the terrorists seized a school in Beslan on September 1, Shapovalov did not rule out the possibility of holding a concert in this city. Shapovalov tried to hold a similar concert in England. The Muslim Council of Britain condemned the idea as "an attempt to make money from other people's tragedies" and called for the concert to be ignored. The performance took place in January 2005. In 2004, Shapovalov began his collaboration with singer Helya and Nano Project. Shapovalov was also involved in producing the rock group “7B”. The album “Alien” created in the process of this collaboration and three music videos differed markedly from the group’s previous independent works in the direction of heavier sound, the imposition of a large number of effects, and depressive themes. In 2005, Shapovalov announced that he intended to film a reality show on an icebreaker, which would tour the Arctic Ocean, but the project remained unrealized. In 2007, he became a co-owner of the online store Mp3search.ru. At the same time, he became a member of the leadership of NP FAIR, which was involved in the collective management of copyrights on the Internet. In the same year, the record company Gala Records filed a lawsuit against the company owner of Mp3search.ru, accusing him of illegally distributing recordings of the singer MakSim. 2012 In 2012, Shapovalov was diagnosed with a brain tumor. The ex-soloist of the group “t.A.T.u.” helped him in transporting him to the hospital. Yulia Volkova. According to the group's former concert director Leonid Dzyunik, Shapovalov sat at home and did not undergo treatment until Volkova found out about his illness and insisted on the need to go to the hospital. Dzyunik said that Volkova came to his home and took him to the hospital. Shapovalov successfully completed a course of chemotherapy. On at the moment Ivan has fully recovered. 2013 In 2013, Shapovalov recorded three songs as part of the Podnebeses project: Counterclockwise She left the sun My love is walking Promotions and criticism Shapovalov used various provocative techniques to attract attention to his projects. In addition to lesbian themes, Tatu's video clips included subjects related to masturbation and terrorism (the explosion of a children's carousel). One of the main objects of criticism was the image of lesbians used by the group. Thus, sexologist Dilya Enikeeva, commenting on the group’s work, wrote: “this is a well-thought-out policy against the nation, against healthy sex, family and motherhood.” At the same time, a number of sources noted that, despite its image, “t.A.T.u.” within the lesbian community itself they were not perceived as a lesbian group, and Shapovalov was subjected to harsh criticism. One of the reasons for this attitude was that in fact the group acted within the framework of a heterosexist culture: “in constructing the stage image of lesbians, the group is guided by a patriarchal frame, in which a woman is always an object of pleasure, an object of gaze, and the role of the beholder belongs to a man... The image of the group corresponds more to the model of “woman for man” than “woman for woman.” Sociologist Igor Kon highlighted another component of the group’s image: “In my opinion, the success of t.A.T.u. is due not so much to the demonstrative play of forbidden lesbian relationships, but to the fact that the image of self-sufficient cool girls has been created.” In 2003, in Great Britain, Shapovalov made various provocative statements on the topic of pedophilia, which caused protests from a number of public organizations (in particular, from the organization for the protection of children from violence “Kidscape”). Kidscape director Michelle Elliott said: “We object and don't find it funny at all that Ivan is presenting them as a child's sexual fantasy. These girls are talented. It’s a pity that they are advertised at the expense of hundreds of thousands of sexually seduced children.” In an interview with a British tabloid, Shapovalov stated that he “prefers underage girls.” British Channel 4 presenter Richard Madeley called the duo “sickening”, describing the video for the song “All the Things She Said” as “the standard for the sweet dreams of all British pedophiles.” In response, Shapovalov on the group’s official website called for a discussion “on the topic of the growth of pedophilia in the UK” and expressed his readiness to provide medical care to Madeley himself. Such a reaction to the appearance of the group was due to the fact that at this time various campaigns against pedophiles were being carried out in the UK. In May 2003, Shapovalov was going to shoot a video on Red Square with the participation of several hundred girls in school skirts. However, police officers stopped the event, forcing out all those gathered and detaining the producer himself. On this occasion, Shapovalov noted: “Apparently, the Kremlin does not need Tatu at Eurovision.” In 2003, Shapovalov tried to nominate the Tatu soloists as candidates for the President of Russia. The start of collecting signatures was announced on Russian television. To overcome the age limit of 35 years, he proposed adding up the ages of the singers. Write a review of the article "Shapovalov, Ivan Nikolaevich" Notes Links // Company, No. 207, March 25, 2002 Interview // News, January 16, 2004 // Echo of Moscow, May 16, 2003 // Echo of Moscow, March 7, 2004 // Echo of Moscow, September 9, 2004 // BRAVO, August 2003 Excerpt characterizing Shapovalov, Ivan Nikolaevich But the blood of Radomir and Magdalena, apparently, flowed into them for good reason. only son- having suffered his pain and remaining just as persistent, Svetodar surprised even Radan, who (like no one else!) knew how deeply vulnerable the soul can be, and how hard it is sometimes to return back, where those you loved and for whom are no longer there I was so sincerely and deeply sad... Svetodar did not want to surrender to the mercy of grief and pain... The more mercilessly his life “beat” him, the more fiercely he tried to fight, learning the ways to the Light, to Good, and to the salvation of those lost in the darkness human souls... People came to him in a stream, begging for help. Some longed to get rid of the disease, some longed to cure their hearts, and some simply strove for the Light that Svetodar so generously shared. Radan's anxiety grew. The fame of the “miracles” performed by his careless nephew exceeded the Pyrenees Mountains... More and more sufferers wanted to turn to the newly-minted “miracle worker.” And he, as if not noticing the impending danger, continued to refuse no one, confidently walking in the footsteps of the deceased Radomir... Several more troubled years passed. Svetodar matured, becoming stronger and calmer. Together with Radan, they long ago moved to Occitania, where even the air seemed to breathe the teachings of his mother, the untimely death of Magdalene. The surviving Knights of the Temple accepted her son with open arms, vowing to protect him and help him as much as they could. And then one day the day came when Radan felt a real, openly threatening danger... It was the eighth anniversary of the death of Golden Maria and Vesta - Svetodar’s beloved mother and sister... “Look, Isidora...” Sever said quietly. - I'll show you if you want. A bright, but dreary, living picture immediately appeared in front of me... The gloomy, foggy mountains were generously sprinkled with an annoying, drizzling rain, leaving a feeling of uncertainty and sadness in the soul... A gray, impenetrable haze wrapped the nearest castles in cocoons of fog, turning them into lonely veterans, guarding eternal peace in the valley... The Valley of the Magicians looked gloomily to a cloudy, joyless picture, remembering bright, joyful days, illuminated by the rays of hot summer sun... And this made everything around me even more melancholy and sadder. A tall and slender young man stood as a frozen “statue” at the entrance of a familiar cave, not moving and not showing any signs of life, like a sad stone statue carved by an unfamiliar master right into the same cold stone rock... I realized that this was probably an adult Svetodar. He looked mature and strong. Powerful and at the same time very kind... A proud, high-raised head spoke of fearlessness and honor. Very long blond hair, tied on his forehead with a red ribbon, fell in heavy waves over his shoulders, making him look like an ancient king... a proud descendant of the Meravingleys. Leaning against a damp stone, Svetodar stood, feeling neither cold nor moisture, or rather, feeling nothing... Here, exactly eight years ago, his mother, Golden Maria, and his little sister, brave, affectionate Vesta, died... They died, brutally and vilely killed by a madman, an evil person... sent by the "fathers" holy church. Magdalena never lived to hug her matured son, as bravely and devotedly as she, walking along the familiar road of Light and Knowledge.... Along the cruel earthly road of bitterness and loss... “Svetodar could never forgive himself for not being here when they needed his protection,” Sever continued quietly again. – Guilt and bitterness gnawed at his pure, warm heart, forcing him to fight even more fiercely with the non-human, who called themselves “servants of God”, “saviors” of the human soul... He clenched his fists and swore to himself for the thousandth time that he would “rebuild” this “wrong” earthly world! Destroy everything false, “black” and evil in him... On Svetodar’s broad chest was red the bloody cross of the Knights Templar... The cross in memory of Magdalene. And no Earthly force could make him forget the oath of knightly vengeance. As kind and affectionate as his young heart was to bright and honest people, so ruthless and harsh was his cold brain towards traitors and “servants” of the church. Svetodar was too decisive and strict towards himself, but surprisingly patient and kind towards others. And only people without conscience and honor aroused his real hostility. He did not forgive betrayal and lies in any form they manifested, and fought against this shame of man with all possible means, sometimes even knowing that he could lose. Suddenly, through a gray veil of rain, strange, unprecedented water ran along the rock hanging right above him, dark splashes of which sprinkled the walls of the cave, leaving eerie brown drops on it... Svetodar, who had gone deep into himself, did not pay attention to it at first, but then Having taken a closer look, I shuddered - the water was dark red! It flowed from the mountain in a stream of dark “human blood”, as if the Earth itself, no longer able to withstand the meanness and cruelty of man, opened with the wounds of all his sins... After the first stream, the second... the third... the fourth... Until the whole mountain streams of red water did not flow. There was a lot of it... It seemed that the holy blood of Magdalene was crying out for vengeance, reminding the living of her sorrow!.. In the lowlands, seething red streams merged into one, filling the wide river Aude, which, not paying attention to anything , swam majestically, washing the walls of old Carcassonne along the way, carrying its streams further into the warm blue sea... Red clay in Occitanie (Having visited these sacred places, I managed to find out that the water in the mountains of Occitania turns red due to red clay. But the sight of running “bloody” water really made a very strong impression...). Suddenly Svetodar listened warily... but then smiled warmly. – Are you taking care of me again, uncle?.. I told you a long time ago that I don’t want to hide! Radan came out from behind the stone ledge, sadly shaking his gray head. The years had not spared him, leaving a hard imprint of anxiety and loss on his bright face... He no longer seemed like that happy young man, that ever-laughing sun-Radan who could once melt even the hardest heart. Now he was a Warrior, seasoned by adversity, trying by any means to preserve his most precious treasure - the son of Radomir and Magdalene, the only living reminder of their tragic lives...their courage...their light and their love. – You have a Duty, Svetodarushka... Just like I do. You must survive. Whatever it takes. Because if you are gone too, it will mean that your father and mother died in vain. That scoundrels and cowards won our war... You have no right to this, my boy! - You're wrong, uncle. I have my right to this, since this is my life! And I will not allow anyone to write laws for it in advance. My father lived his life short life, submitting to someone else's will... Just like my poor mother. Only because, by someone else’s decision, they saved those who hated them. I do not intend to submit to the will of one person, even if this person is my own grandfather. This is my life, and I will live it as I consider necessary and honest!.. Sorry, Uncle Radan! Svetodar got excited. His young mind rebelled against the influence of others on his own destiny. According to the law of youth, he wanted to decide for himself, not allowing someone from the outside to influence his valuable life. Radan only smiled sadly, watching his courageous pet... Svetodar had enough of everything - strength, intelligence, endurance and perseverance. He wanted to live his life honestly and openly... only, unfortunately, he did not yet understand that there could be no open war with those who were hunting him. Simply because they were the ones who had neither honor, nor conscience, nor heart... - Well, in your own way you are right, my boy... This is your life. And no one can live it except you... I am sure you will live it with dignity. Just be careful, Svetodar - the blood of your father flows in you, and our enemies will never give up to destroy you. Take care of yourself, my dear. Patting his nephew on the shoulder, Radan sadly stepped aside and disappeared behind a ledge of a stone rock. A second later, a scream and heavy scuffling were heard. Something fell heavily to the ground and there was silence... Svetodar rushed towards the sound, but it was too late. On the stone floor of the cave, clutched in a final embrace, lay two bodies, one of which was a man unfamiliar to him, dressed in a cloak with a red cross, the second was... Radan. With a piercing cry, Svetodar rushed to his uncle’s body, which lay completely motionless, as if life had already left him, without even allowing him to say goodbye. But, as it turned out, Radan was still breathing. - Uncle, please don’t leave me!.. Not you... I beg you, don’t leave me, uncle! Svetodar bewilderedly squeezed him in his strong manly embrace, gently rocking him like a small child. Just as Radan once rocked him so many times... It was clear that life was leaving Radan, drop by drop flowing from his weakened body like a golden stream... And even now, knowing that he was dying, he was only worried about one thing - how to save Svetodar... How to explain to him in these remaining few seconds what he was never able to convey in all his long twenty-five years?.. And how will he tell Maria and Radomir, there, in that other one, an unfamiliar world, that he could not save himself, that their son was now left completely alone?.. Radan's Dagger – Listen, son... This man is not a Knight Templar. – Radan said hoarsely, pointing to the dead man. - I know them all - he is a stranger... Tell this to Gundomer... He will help... Find them... or they will find you. And best of all, go away, Svetodarushka... Go to the Gods. They will protect you. This place is filled with our blood... there is too much of it here... go away, dear... Slowly, Radan's eyes closed. A knight's dagger fell to the ground with a ringing sound from the loosened, powerless hand. It was very unusual... Svetodar looked more closely - this simply could not be!.. Such a weapon belonged to a very narrow circle of knights, only those who once personally knew John - at the end of the handle there was a gilded crowned head... Svetodar knew for sure that Radan had not had this blade for a long time (it had once remained in the body of his enemy). So today, in self-defense, he grabbed the killer’s weapon?.. But how could it fall into the wrong hands?! Could any of the Temple knights he knew betray the cause for which they all lived?! Svetodar did not believe in this. He knew these people as he knew himself. None of them could have committed such base vileness. They could only be killed, but it was impossible to force them to betray. In this case, who was the person who owned this special dagger?! Radan lay motionless and calm. All earthly worries and bitterness left him forever... Hardened over the years, his face smoothed out, again resembling that joyful young Radan, whom Golden Maria loved so much, and whom his dead brother, Radomir, adored with all his soul... He again seemed happy and bright , as if there was no terrible misfortune nearby, as if everything was joyful and calm in his soul again... Svetodar stood on his knees without saying a word. His dead body only quietly swayed from side to side, as if helping himself to withstand, to survive this heartless, vile blow... Here, in the same cave, eight years ago Magdalena passed away... And now he was saying goodbye to his last loved one , remaining truly all alone. Radan was right - this place absorbed too much of their family blood... It was not for nothing that even the streams turned crimson... as if wanting to tell him to leave... And never come back. I was shaking with some strange fever... It was scary! This was completely unacceptable and incomprehensible - after all, we were called people!!! And there must be somewhere a limit to human meanness and betrayal? - How could you live with this for so long, Sever? All these years, knowing this, how did you manage to remain so calm?! He just smiled sadly, without answering my question. And I, sincerely surprised by the courage and perseverance of this wonderful man, discovered for myself completely new side his selfless and hard life... his unyielding and pure soul.... – Several more years have passed since Radan’s murder. Svetodar avenged his death by finding the killer. As he suspected, it was not one of the Knights Templar. But they never knew who the man sent to them really was. Only one thing became known - before killing Radan, he also vilely destroyed the magnificent, bright Knight who had been with them from the very beginning. He destroyed him only in order to take possession of his cloak and weapons, and to create the impression that Radan was killed by his own... The accumulation of these bitter events poisoned Svetodar’s soul with losses. He had only one consolation left - his pure, true love... His sweet, gentle Margarita... She was a wonderful Qatari girl, a follower of the teachings of the Golden Mary. And she somehow subtly reminded Magdalene... Either it was the same long golden hair, or the softness and leisurelyness of her movements, or maybe just the tenderness and femininity of her face, but Svetodar very often caught himself looking for She has long-gone memories that are dear to her heart... A year later, they had a girl. They named her Maria. As promised to Radan, little Maria was taken to lovely, courageous people - the Cathars - whom Svetodar knew very well and whom he completely trusted. They pledged to raise Maria as their daughter, no matter what it cost them and no matter what it threatened them with. Since then it has been like this - as soon as he was born in the line of Radomir and Magdalena new baby, he was given to be raised by people whom the “holy” church did not know and did not suspect. And this was done in order to preserve their priceless lives, to give them the opportunity to live out their lives to the end. No matter how happy or sad he may be... – How could they give away their children, Sever? Have their parents never seen them again?.. – I asked in shock. - Well, why didn’t you see it? We saw it. It’s just that each fate turned out differently... Later, some of the parents generally lived nearby, especially the mothers. And sometimes there were cases that they were arranged even with the same people who raised their child. They lived differently... Only one thing never changed - the servants of the church did not get tired of following their trail, like bloodhounds, not missing the slightest opportunity to destroy the parents and children who carried the blood of Radomir and Magdalena, fiercely hating even themselves for this a small, newly born child... – How often did their descendants die? Has anyone ever stayed alive and lived their life to the end? Did you help them, North? Did Meteora help them?.. – I literally bombarded him with a hail of questions, unable to stop my burning curiosity. North thought for a moment, then said sadly: “We tried to help... but many of them didn’t want to.” I think that the news about the father who gave his son to die lived in their hearts for centuries, neither forgiving us nor forgetting us. The pain can be severe, Isidora. She doesn't forgive mistakes. Especially those that cannot be fixed...

Only one person out of ten who learned about their terrible disease may not fall into despair, but pull himself together and eventually rise to his feet. This one turned out to be Ivan Shapovalov, known to us mainly as the producer of the scandalous Tatu group.

Disappointing news

Child psychiatrist by specialty, former owner of one of the Russian printed publications, head public organization, marketer and advertiser for leading insurance companies in Moscow, and in addition, screenwriter and producer Ivan Shapovalov, back in 2012, learned that he had a malignant tumor in his head, and if treatment was not started urgently, he would not have long to live. Many of his acquaintances even prematurely “sent him to the next world” in their interviews, but not Ivan himself. He for a long time did not contact the press, and did not allow his friends and family to do so. But, apparently, the famous producer had enough “well-wishers” who were just waiting for the right moment to leak all the truth and lies to the broad masses.

For example, one of the managers of Enrique Iglesias, who at one time had quite friendly relations with Shapovalov, although he sympathizes with his former friend, but sincerely believes that this is the same retribution for the sins of his youth. What sins? Well, if you believe the rumors, then Ivan has quite a few of them.

Retribution?

Just a few years ago, everyone was talking about the star’s sexual promiscuity and bisexual inclinations. The first thing that comes to mind is, of course, the path along which Yulia Volkova, the obvious favorite of her mentor, got into the Tatu project, and it apparently lies through the bed. Moreover, if you compare all the dates, it turns out that producer Ivan Shapovalov seduced her at a very young age. “And what’s there to hide,” Ivan himself apparently thought, and boldly declared to one of the British publishing houses that he was most attracted to underage girls.

Moreover, the unfortunate producer is credited with having sexual relations with mostly people who ever worked with him. With all this, Ivan Shapovalov was married. His only legal wife Valeria, with whom he formalized his relationship while studying at Saratov medical institute, although she left her husband a long time ago, she never decided to get a divorce. The couple, by the way, have two children: 27-year-old Vova and 11-year-old Ivan Ivanovich. But on the side, the “family man” also has a daughter, Uma, born by his mistress Olga.

Breaking all moral prohibitions

Ivan Shapovalov, who earned fame as a worldwide hero-pervert, whom the London newspaper The Times compared to Patrick Swayze, spoke throughout Britain about the problems of pedophilia, but at the same time did not hesitate to use it as a publicity stunt in the music industry.

The same Ivan Irbis spoke about a poor young transvestite who, one might say, was Yulia Volkova’s double. According to him, for some time the guy lived in an apartment rented by Shapovalov. And although the producer justified this fact with the desire to create a new, even more compromising project with the scandalous name “It,” Irbis says that it was all just a matter of the star’s sexual satisfaction. This, it turns out, is Ivan Shapovalov. “Tattoo” is another confirmation of this. Only a perverted brain could freely put two teenage girls kissing on stage. No one had done this before, and therefore the scandalous group in the West was dubbed “the collapse of the last pop taboo.”

The first pancake is not always lumpy

The Tatu group is Shapovalov's producing debut. He began working on the project together with composer Voitinsky back in 1999. The first member of the group was with whom several compositions were recorded at this time. A little later, Yulia Volkova appeared on the horizon, and the duet got its name. It is worth noting that Alexander Voitinsky would later refuse to cooperate with Shapovalov, since he considered the project devoid of moral principles.

The year 2000 was a turning point for Tatu - their song “I’ve lost my mind” was heard from all the radios, and a video about two schoolgirls openly kissing in the pouring rain appeared on blue screens. The music for the song, by the way, is the work of 17-year-old Sergei Galoyan. Already at the beginning of 2001, the group recorded their first studio album entitled “200 in the opposite direction,” which a year later would become available in English. The song “Half an Hour” gains particular popularity, and the “tattoos” begin to tour briskly around the world.

Fall from the Celestial Empire

In 2003, a successful producer came up with a brilliant idea: why not make an equally scandalous reality show? And already at the beginning of the next year, the STS channel presented Russians with a new “entertainment” - “Tattoo in the Celestial Empire”, in which the girls had to record their new album in front of television viewers. Filming took place on the 13th level of the Beijing Hotel, where Shapovalov located a recording studio. But we never saw the final result - Ivan abandoned his “brainchild” and transferred the production rights to the Tatu group to Boris Rensky.

But in 2004, the British music awards BMI awarded him the Pop Awards. And all thanks to the composition All the Things She Said, which, having surpassed even the legendary team No Doubt with their hit It`s My Life, became the leader in this category. Imagine, the song was broadcast over 2 million times!

At the foot of glory

After abandoning the “tattoos” and triumphing in the British charts, Shapovalov began work on a new project called Nato. Then he took on another ward - group “7B”. Heavy sound and depressive notes have become something new in the producer’s work.

In 2004, he became involved with the aspiring singer Helya, and already in 2005 he loudly announced his intention to create a new reality show. Filming was supposed to take place on one of the icebreakers, which was sailing along the Arctic Ocean. But plans remained plans.

Well, you can’t take away the desire to work from Ivan Shapovalov, but none of the projects he led received such success and recognition as Tatu. A group that causes absolutely contradictory comments (they were called either an international disgrace or national pride Russia), became " business card"producer.

A fatal diagnosis, it would seem...

But let’s return to the news that became public in the hot summer of 2012. Brain cancer - this was the terrible diagnosis Ivan heard from the doctors. He himself did not want to make this information public, so everyone thought and wondered what was wrong with Ivan Shapovalov and why he did not go out in public. But his friend and colleague soon told the press about the patient’s state of affairs. It turns out that immediately after Ivan’s diagnosis was announced, he was placed in the intensive care unit of one of the Moscow clinics. His former ward Yulia Volkova helped him in every possible way with this. Large quantity chemotherapy courses contributed to a significant reduction in the tumor, which, by the way, was so advanced that it was even pressing on Shapovalov’s eye. Having taken his health into his own hands, Ivan was back on his feet within a year.

Doctors' prognoses: will Ivan Shapovalov have time to atone for his sins?

Ivan Shapovalov’s illness, you understand, does not promise him an absolute recovery. This is probably why the producer took the illness sent to him as a chance to turn another page of his “unangelic” life and start all over again.

He practically left Moscow and settled in the town of Konakovo, in the Tver region. That's where he found new way maintaining vitality. Horses are what helps him in difficult times. And this is not just a hobby. Horses, in a way, became his life. But Ivan Shapovalov did not leave music either. Cancer did not stop him from performing and recording his own song entitled “My Love Is Walking Somewhere.”

Perhaps it was this attitude towards his illness that allowed Ivan to remain among the living. After all, the doctors’ forecasts were, to put it mildly, disappointing. None of them at first would have risked giving Shapovalov more than 3 months of life, and what a life! Constantly wandering around hospitals and communicating with people in white coats - this is what was supposed to accompany the sinful producer throughout the rest of his life. But that was not the case! After intensive courses of radiation therapy and chemotherapy, endless IVs and grueling medications, the tumor began to noticeably decrease. Now, after more than two years, doctors do not notice any metastases in Ivan’s body, and he looks like a completely healthy person.

The producer of the once mega-popular Tatu group, Ivan Shapovalov, has been battling a fatal disease - brain cancer - for almost a year now. Now Ivan, having completed chemotherapy courses, walks on crutches and thanks everyone for their help. What it cost Shapovalov’s wife Valeria to go through difficult times with her husband, she told in an interview. Ivan Shapovalov. Photo: ITAR-TASS Let us recall that last summer, Tatu producer Ivan Shapovalov was diagnosed with brain cancer. This was reported by his close friend Leonid Dzyunik. In a recent interview, Dzyunik spoke about his health: “Vanya is now in Moscow, in intensive care. I visited him recently. The situation is serious - a tumor on the head. Yulia Volkova came to see him and helped with transportation to the hospital. Now Vanya is undergoing chemotherapy ", radiation therapy. Lena Kiper (author of the hits "Tatu") recently called me and said that "chemistry" was helping. He had a terrible tumor on his forehead, putting pressure on his eye." Despite the terrible diagnosis, Shapovalov did not fall into despair , and actively engaged in treatment. Now Ivan has already risen to his feet, although he walks on crutches. However, the fight against the disease continues. “I need money for treatment - I’m not refusing. But it’s better to announce a fundraiser for those who now vitally need it. But I went through this, and thanks to everyone who helped me with this,” StarHit quotes Ivan Shapovalov. Valeria’s wife was with her husband every day. Answering the question of what it took for her to hold on and not lose heart, she said: “Do you mean, am I an iron woman? No, I cry, and quite often. It’s just that I don’t have anyone closer to Vanya, and he, I hope, There’s also no one closer to me. I adjusted my work schedule, didn’t take vacations, because I had to live on something.” Valeria Shapovalova told how she and her family supported Ivan: “We always came with him.” youngest son Vanya, he is ten years old. When dad was in intensive care for a month and a half, his son sat next to him and read him fairy tales - Japanese, Indian. Then, in the regular ward, the son told his dad jokes and funny stories. Whenever possible, we tried to pick Ivan up from the hospital. Between courses of chemotherapy, which lasted two to three weeks, he spent five days at home, and then every day was like a holiday for us." Despite the fact that she is a pediatrician by profession, Valeria admitted that she hoped not only for medicine: " Subconsciously, I still rely on the power of prayers, even though I don’t know them. Vanya’s sister Vera went to church and brought the icon to the clinic. I am grateful to everyone who supported us then! Even completely strangers They called me and offered any help."

In history Russian show business There are many producers who have become famous for their projects. At one time, almost every resident of the country knew the name of Ivan Shapovalov. But few people know how he created the most scandalous group and what happened in his personal life after its collapse.

Biography of Ivan Shapovalov

Born on May 28, 1966 in the family of an artist and a physics teacher. A small psychiatric hospital in the city of Balakovo could become his permanent place of work. After school, Ivan graduated from a physics and mathematics school by correspondence, but decided to continue his studies at the Saratov Medical Institute. For two years he worked diligently in his specialty and helped children overcome illnesses with the help of psychocorrectional practice. In 1992 he created the public opinion formation service “Context”.

It was then that Ivan Shapovalov realized that he had every chance of becoming a successful advertising agent. For the next two years he worked in the marketing department of the Slavia company, and in 1994 he began writing scripts for commercials. Several successful campaigns brought him not only initial capital, but also useful acquaintances. In 1998, while doing advertising for the OST company, he notices Lena Katina. A bright and vocal girl attracted his attention, but Ivan remembered her after meeting Elena Kiper. Shapovalov decides to promote new star and collects musical material.

Failure

Lena Katina passed the casting and began recording songs. But the project didn't take off. The reason for the failure was an unsuccessful selection of material. Although the song “Yugoslavia” was relevant, it sounded a little strange when sung by a 14-year-old girl. Ivan abandoned the original idea and decided to create a group. Failure did not stop him - he understood in which direction to move further.

t.A.T.u.

The second soloist was Yulia Volkova. Together with Lena they sang in the group “Fidgets”. Taught by bitter experience, he already knows that popularity can only be achieved by causing resonance. He bets on two schoolgirls who are in love with each other. Elena Kiper writes the lyrics to the legendary song “I've lost my mind,” and the music for it was composed by Sergei Galoyan. At that time, the young composer was only 17 years old. The song quickly became popular, but a video was waiting for the country ahead. Ivan knew exactly where the line between vulgarity and reasonable eroticism was. There are no explicit scenes in the video - just a rather innocent kiss between two girls.

Success

After the video hit television, the name of Tatu producer Ivan Shapovalov was discussed by everyone. Colleagues congratulated him on his resounding success, and ordinary people accused him of distributing child pornography and almost pedophilia. But the producer had no time for idle gossip - his brainchild required development. At this time, he signed a contract with Universal Music, following which he was supposed to release three albums. He was not going to give up on the idea of ​​presenting girls as minor lesbians. The next song, “They Won’t Catch Up with Us,” made the group popular far beyond Russia.

Abroad will help us

Ivan quickly calculated what kind of income the popularity of schoolgirls abroad could result in. The song "I've lost my mind" was performed on English and instantly took leading positions in most European charts. Before this, there were no stars in Russia who had such wild success in the West. Foreign tours made both the producer and the girls rich. But if in Russia young lesbians became a symbol of free love, then Europe perceived their work from a different perspective. High-quality texts and dynamic music were of much more interest than the subtext inserted by Ivan Shapovalov.

Breakthrough

A big surprise for the producer was the stunning success of his project in China. Girls in school uniforms became not only popular - they had fan clubs numbering several million people. Tours in the Middle Kingdom became the most profitable and longest in the history of the group. Lena and Katya were literally exhausted from their busy schedule. For three years they traveled all over the world and felt like real celebrities.

The East is a delicate matter

Photos of Ivan Shapovalov never left the pages of magazines and newspapers. He never tired of provoking and shocking society. His idea to shoot a video on Red Square caused a big stir. Of course, he was quickly banned from engaging in such provocation, but he achieved the desired effect. Having conquered China, he turned his attention to Japan. Manga lovers simply had to love “tattoos”. The girls were greeted by a large crowd of fans. But a day later, Japan had already changed its attitude towards young lesbians.

The girls came on television to talk about themselves and their work. During the interview, they did not like the presenter’s question, and they demonstratively left the studio. The Japanese did not forgive the stars for such behavior. The concert halls were half full, and Ivan Shapovalov’s impudent behavior completely put an end to all hopes. He behaved defiantly with advertisers, and the demands he made on concert organizers were simply unrealistic.

Year of triumph

Before the country had time to digest Shapovalov’s statement that the “tattoos” would run for president, it was time to think about Eurovision. This is not only a prestigious competition, but also a big step in the career of any performer. 2003 was a very successful year for the group - all of Europe was singing their songs. When sending the girls to the competition, no one doubted that they would win. Therefore, Ivan Shapovalov did not strain himself too much. The strange song, and even in Russian, was a pure formality. But Europe did not appreciate the composition and its poor execution. Until this moment, the girls had never sung live, and they were simply too lazy to rehearse. A big name should have ensured victory. Third place and the highest scores only from his neighbors brought Shapovalov back to earth from heaven - no one is interested in singers with an incomprehensible repertoire and poor performance.

Celestial Empire

In 2004, the group's popularity was rapidly declining. A creative producer decides to launch a reality show at the Beijing Hotel. In front of the audience, the girls will record a new album. However, already the first episodes showed that the mood in the team is not the best. Julia lost her voice and couldn’t sing, but in almost all the songs she had to scream. She flatly refuses to continue working and shows the doctor's report.

Along the way, the girls talk a lot about their lives, destroying the carefully created legend of Ivan Shapovalov. The last episodes were already on the verge of a foul - Julia reports about abortions and affairs with men, the producer is looking for new stars. This was the end of the collaboration. After such revelations, you should no longer count on audience loyalty. In one moment, a popular group becomes history. It is noteworthy that Ivan Shapovalov himself did not talk about his personal life.

New projects

After the termination of the contract with Yulia and Lena, the famous producer is looking for a new idea. The year was 2004. The world still remembered the fall of the towers in New York, and Russia itself did not have time to heal its wounds after the terrorist attacks. It’s at this very time that Ivan brings to the stage new singer Nato. Her stage image causes indignation - the suicide bomber's outfit does not make one want to buy a ticket to her performance. Strong voice And good songs don't help. The project fails. Abroad, no one is waiting for Shapovalov - there such an image only causes rejection.

The following projects were not much more successful - now no one will even remember such pseudonyms as Helya and Nano Project. New idea filming a reality show on an icebreaker remains unrealized. In 2007-2012, Shapovalov’s name practically does not appear in the press. Nobody knows what this guy does talented person.

Disease

It was only thanks to Yulia Volkova that the country learned about the producer’s terrible diagnosis. The tumor in the brain grew while Ivan himself sat at home and did not take any action. Girl learning about the disease former producer, came and forcibly took him to the hospital. Fortunately, no time was lost, and the doctors began treatment. Chemotherapy courses had a positive effect, and now Ivan Shapovalov is completely healthy. Many perceived the producer's diagnosis as punishment for his sins. He used too many provocative techniques to achieve his goals.

Almost from the first day until the collapse of the group t.A.T.u. he was accused of promoting same-sex love, terrorism, and even pedophilia. Other producers believe that Ivan Shapovalov himself prevented the group from reaching the top and earning hundreds of millions of dollars. Where would the girls be now if he had not deliberately created scandals around them? The star producer did not want to make concessions and behaved like the king of the world. That's why they refused to work with him large companies with a worldwide reputation.

Family

The producer never advertised his personal life. He has a wife Valeria and two sons. The youngest is also called Ivan. The wife works as a pediatrician in a children's clinic. Shapovalov does not like to talk about his illness, but the main reason for his refusal of treatment was money. The producer simply did not have the funds for expensive procedures. Where did the multi-million dollar fortune disappear in 10 years? A charity concert and fundraising event helped him pay for his treatment. If Yulia Volkova, who herself had overcome a tumor in her throat, had not started ringing all the bells, then it is unknown how this matter would have ended. The wife says in an interview that she cried all night long, but could not do anything. The support of friends and family helped put Ivan on his feet.

Ivan Shapovalov's mistress gave birth to a grandson from his own son!

Last summer, the capital’s crowd was shocked by the news of the serious illness of the producer of the legendary group “t.A.T.u.”. 46-year-old Ivan SHAPOVALOV was hospitalized in one of the Moscow hospitals with terrible diagnosis- brain tumor. Since then, no information has been received about him. Relatives and friends of the producer refused to communicate with the media. Shocking details of the last years of Shapovalov’s life were revealed to Express Gazeta by Ivan IRBIS, the Russian manager of the world superstar Enrique IGLESIAS. Many years ago, Ivan participated in Shapovalov’s project “Celestial Empire” and had a close relationship with him.

When I found out that Vanya had brain cancer and was dying, my first desire was to see him, - told Irbis . - We managed to find out that Vanya was admitted to the Burdenko hospital. Unfortunately, the doctors did not allow anyone to see him except his wife Valeria Prokopyevna and their eldest son Volodya. Moreover, as one of Vanya’s wards told me, he had a conflict with Vova. “If you forcefully put me in the hospital, I will renounce all of you!” - said Shapovalov. He tried to heal himself using some kind of Buddhist method of alternative medicine. But relatives and friends still insisted on hospitalization. Van Burdenko received a course of radiation therapy. After that, the doctors said that he had two months to live and sent him home to die. Now Vanya is under the care of his mother at the dacha in Konakovo, which he bought with the money he earned from “t.A.T.u.”

Irbis wanted to go there. I tried to call Ivan on his mobile phone. But Tatyana answered the phone all the time - a woman who at one time was with him in intimate relationships. She made it clear to Irbis that his family and friends did not want him to visit his friend.

“They always hated me,” Irbis admitted. - One day, Vova’s son came to his house and saw me lying naked in my father’s bed. And he began to demand that he get out immediately. He yelled that I was the dirt of the earth and that I was fucking everyone for profit. And one of Vanya’s lovers, Olga Maslikhova, tried to influence the administrators of the Celestial Empire so that they would close my entry there. But Vanya ordered that they let me in again. He was attached to me and loved me. And, apparently, everyone felt I was a threat, considered me a rival.

According to Irbis, among the few who were allowed to see Shapovalov in Konakovo was the boy Gena. He, as Ivan says, during the “Celestial Empire”, being a minor, also had an intimate relationship with him.

- Gena told me that Vanya began to look like an alien from science fiction film“The head swelled up like a pumpkin, and one eye almost fell out,” sighs Irbis. - Of course, I’m incredibly sorry for Shapovalov. But, on the other hand, I believe in God and believe that this is his retribution for sins. For me and many other boys and girls whose childhood was stolen by this man. Take, for example, the unfortunate guy-transvestite from the Celestial Empire, who pretended to be Yulia Volkova as a “tattoo”. At one time, he often spent the night in a rented apartment, which Shapovalov rented so as not to live with his wife on Voikovskaya. Vanya said that he wanted to do a musical project with him called “It”. I remember how Ivan filled his socks with buckwheat and put it in this little gay guy’s bra to find the right breast size. And when huge parties gathered in the Celestial Empire and everyone was drinking and using illegal drugs, Vanya and other men took turns taking this transvestite behind the curtain, after which he spat something into a plastic cup. The production of the “It” project was limited to this.

Place near Vanya

Vanya’s relationships with women were no less unique. All his life he had only one wife - Valeria Prokopyevna, - Irbis continues. - They met and got married while studying at the medical institute in Saratov. And although Vanya had not lived with her for a long time, they did not officially divorce. His wife gave birth to two sons: Vova, who is now 24 years old, and Vanya, who is 9. Shapovalov also has a daughter, Uma, from his mistress Olga Maslikhova. This redhead loved him madly and desperately fought with other fans and admirers for a place under Vanya. I remember how the financial director of Celestial Empire Katya Icebreaker Obnosova found Maslikhova naked in Shapovalov’s bed and chased her throughout the apartment with a huge samurai sword, donated to the group “t.A.T.u.” in Japan.

Irbis recalls that when Ivan invited him on a date to the Ukraine Hotel, Olga, who was at last month pregnancy, burst into their room with wild screams. But Vanya didn’t want to see her and asked to call security to get rid of her.

“They said that he even beat Maslikhova himself when he got really annoying,” our narrator said.

Irbis shared that another child, who was named Kurt (in honor of the leader of the rock group Nirvana) Kurt Cobain, deceased strange death- either murder or suicide), Shapovalov was born by his rich fan Lyusya Shiza Sokolova.

She received a huge amount of money from her bandit husband, who was shot in front of her at the door of their house. After hanging out with Vanya, she became addicted and began investing money in Vanya’s projects. This Lucy was fucked not only by Vanya, but also by his eldest son Vova. She also gave birth to a child from Vova - Vanya’s grandson. Lucy sent her children from her late husband to London. And the children from father and son Shapovalov live at her dacha in Voskresensky, - with knowledge of the matter says Irbis. - Vanin, the arranger, a paralyzed invalid, hangs out there too Slava Katsev, who suffered some kind of unreal stroke from a heroin overdose, can barely speak and cannot walk. They set up a studio there, get drunk, get high on drugs, all have sex together and write songs. This is complete crap! During our last meeting at the Ukraine Hotel, Vanya and I played the following game: I asked him what this or that word meant, and in his own way he gave its decoding. To the question “What is love?” he replied, “It’s a garbage pit.” To the question “What is terrorism?” - "This reverse side states."

In conclusion, I asked him: “What is death?” Vanya smiled, looked into my eyes and said: “Death is something new.” Then he got madly drunk, lay down on the windowsill and vomited from the 17th floor directly onto the main entrance of the Ukraine Hotel. After that I didn't see him again. Think about it!

In addition to the above-mentioned persons, in intimate relationships with Ivan Shapovalov in different times consisted of: lead singer of the group “t.A.T.u.” Yulia Volkova, producer and songwriter Elena Kiper and TV presenter Beata Ardeeva. Volkova and Kiper, according to the latter, were driven by their closeness to him to the point of turning to doctors. And Ardeeva was in a terrible car accident in 2003 and became disabled.
