Matilda Shnurova is a socialite, the owner of the restaurant of author's cuisine "CoCoCo", the creator of the ballet school "Isadora", whose motto was the phrase "Ballet for everyone!", the wife of the leader of the scandalous musical group "Leningrad" Sergei Shnurov.

The biography of Matilda Shnurova begins on July 13, 1986 at Voronezh region, in the village of Losevo. At birth, the girl's parents, Vladimir and Tatiana Mozgovy, named her Elena. After 1.5 years, the young people divorced, and the mother married Vladimir Nagorny for the 2nd time. New family settled in the village of Livenka, where after a certain time, Elena's younger half-brother, Igor, was born. The girl went to a rural school, studied for threes and usually behaved defiantly.

The reason could be the unsettled life of the child in the family. The mother also left her second husband, becoming interested in Sahaja Yoga. The woman moved to Voronezh, where she began to earn a living by sewing. Elena, in turn, settled with her dad, and then wandered among her grandmothers and for some time lived in Voronezh with her mother. Before coming of age, she decided to try her luck in the capital: the girl dreamed of studying at the directing department of VGIK.

The soloist of the 7b group Ivan Demyan, who himself was from Voronezh, helped Elena settle in Moscow. The guy allowed the girl to live in the studio. Soon, fate brought Elena Mozgovaya with the producer of the famous Tatu musical group Ivan Shapovalov, who offered the girl a job in the office of the production center.

Soon Elena had an affair with photographer Dmitry Mikheev, who offered to change her name and become Matilda. Mozgovaya liked the idea. After some time, the girl decided to change Moscow to St. Petersburg. In a new place, a new prosperous period began in the life of Matilda.

In St. Petersburg, Elena Mozgovaya became a student technological university, choosing the most difficult faculty - biochemistry. Elena was bored in St. Petersburg, because in Moscow she had "a million friends", which included Natalya Vodianova, Anastasia Volochkova, Eduard Limonov.

To make it more fun in a new place, the girl plunged into science and, as she herself says, "studied with insane interest." At some point, Matilda even wanted to engage in scientific activities, but she met with her future husband Sergei Shnurov. Therefore, Matilda Shnurova - this is how the heroine now appears - left science. Arguing this by the fact that "it is impossible to work in a biochemical laboratory and be the wife of Sergei Shnurov."

Soon, a spectacular brunette with expressive eyes turned from a biochemist into a restaurateur and head of dance schools, in particular ballet. The last Matilda Shnurova gave the name "Isadora". The girl explained the opening of the center by the fact that at the age of 16 she became interested in ballet and she liked this activity.

She invited graduates of the A. Vaganova Academy, soloists of the Russian Ballet and the Mariinsky Theater to the school. And the model external data (with a height of 170 centimeters, the weight of the leader is no more than 52 kilograms) and the graceful plasticity of Matilda allowed her to take part in productions and theatrical photo shoots.

Relatively restaurant business, then for Matilda Shnurova it began with the management of the bar, which belongs to her husband. The name of the first establishment is Blue Pushkin. The owner of the bar, Sergei Shnurov, did not have enough time to do business. Accordingly, Matilda was forced to take up the work herself. In the process, she met the chef Igor Grishechkin. There was an idea to open a restaurant where Grishechkin would be engaged in cooking.

And so it happened. At the very beginning of autumn 2012, Matilda Shnurova found and rented a room. And in December 2012, the CoCoCo restaurant opened its doors to the first guests. For St. Petersburg, this was a high-profile event. The place quickly became popular. According to the results of the year before last, KoCoCo already took the 4th most popular place among the restaurants of the city, and chef Igor Grishechkin became the best chef in the city according to the Where To Eat award.

The growing popularity of the institution made it possible for the organizers to change the address of the restaurant's registration: from the basement on Nekrasov Street, "CoCoCo" moved to the top floor of the W St. Petersburg, where the French culinary specialist Alain Ducasse worked before.

Matilda Shnurova is happy to name the visitors of her establishment. Eminent persons come here - Avdotya Smirnova with Anatoly Chubais, Vera Polozkova, Polina Kitsenko, Nika Belotserkovskaya. Regarding Nicky, Matilda said that she was a devoted connoisseur of her culinary talent. Matilda took many recipes from Belonika.

The CoCoCo establishment, which is 100 percent owned by Shnurova, is today a kind of calling card restaurant Peter. Matilda happily says that she often sees the phrase “Petersburg is the Hermitage, the Mariinsky Theater and CoCoCo” in her own Instagram feed under the photo.

Matilda Shnurova has formed a clear concept for the establishment: CoCoCo is focused on Russian cuisine, where all dishes are prepared from seasonal products grown in this area. In this restaurant, Shnurova was the first in the city to be able to realize fashion trend local cuisine, which restaurateurs of St. Petersburg have long been talking about. At the same time, the restaurant’s menu is distinguished by its particular sophistication and variety: in addition to the beloved potatoes with herring, here you can taste stroganina, crucian carp, quail, stewed rabbit, and even a farm burger with root chips.

See you with current spouse Sergei Shnurov, Matilda had novels with other famous men. There are rumors of a romantic relationship with the famous paparazzi Dmitry Mikheev, as well as a short relationship with the leader musical group"7B" by Ivan Demyan and actor Evgeny Tsyganov. But Matilda Shnurova herself does not confirm this information.

Matilda was introduced to Sergei Shnurov by a mutual friend who lives in America. The first meeting happened in 2006 at a concert of the Leningrad collective. Matilda immediately attracted the attention of an eccentric musician, who compared the beauty of the girl with the appearance of the beautiful Swan from the canvas of Mikhail Vrubel. On the first date, the couple walked around the clubs of the city.

At that time, the scandalous rock singer had already broken up with Oksana Akinshina and his heart was free. The romance that began immediately captured Matilda and Sergei. Since 2010, the lovers began to live together. Matilda Shnurova says that she and her husband felt like one and did not get tired of discovering new facets in each other. The couple always had something to talk about, since both are erudite people and with higher education(Shnurov has 2 diplomas).

The couple officially legalized their relationship and consecrated the relationship in Orthodox church. At the wedding ceremony were sports commentator Vasily Utkin, actor Ville Haapasalo, opera director Vasily Barkhatov acted as a witness. After the marriage, the couple settled in the center of St. Petersburg in an apartment overlooking the Fontanka.

The Shnurovs did not think about having children. Matilda, in an interview with Ksenia Sobchak, said that in this moment not ready to be a mother, and Sergei Shnurov either jokingly or seriously pointed out the lack of living space: according to the musician, a family needs at least 500 square meters. In addition, the singer already has 2 children from previous marriages.

Last year, Matilda, in addition to previously launched projects and secular life, tried herself in the production business. Shnurova assisted journalist Maxim Semelyak in publishing the book “Leningrad. Incredible and true story».

In May of this year, fans were shocked by the news that Matilda and Sergei Shnurov were separating after 8 years of marriage. The couple did not want to comment on the reasons for the divorce, asking fans and the media not to touch on their personal lives.

Today it became known about the parting of the musician with his wife Matilda, and more recently they swore eternal love to each other.

The 45-year-old leader of the Leningrad group shocked the public. The girls are in mourning: “There is no love!”. The guys are sure: “Shnurov has appeared new girlfriend". And these assumptions are not accidental: Sergey is a noble womanizer - there were always luxurious beauties. But the musician was not often faithful to them.

Sergei Shnurov and Matilda (Elena Mozgovaya) seemed perfect couple, but something went wrong. And it seems that we know that ... We analyze everything love stories Sergei Shnurov to see what a loving man he is.

First wife

Sergey met his first wife Maria Ismagilova in student years- they studied in the same course at the Religious and Philosophical Institute at the St. Petersburg Theological Academy. Shnurov fell head over heels in love, quickly proposed, and soon happily awaited the birth of their first child. At the age of 20, Sergei became a father - the couple had a daughter, Serafima. To support his family, the man dropped out of both studies and music lessons. “I left in my third year, because by that time I had my first child, I had to feed my family, and the ancient Greek language and Old Testament had absolutely nothing to do with money. I had to give up spirituality and deal with a specific dough, - Shnurov explained the unfinished education. - Sima appeared in my life when I was 20, and saved my life with her birth. At that time, all my friends switched from marijuana to heroin, and I switched to a child.

But Sergei Shnurov was passionate about music, careless, and Maria did not share his "libations" with musicians and absences from home. Sergei Shnurov did not want to stop his free lifestyle for the sake of his daughter - he preferred a divorce. The couple lived from 1992 to 1996. The ex-wife did not allow her to communicate with her daughter, and Shnurov's lifestyle during the growing up of the child was far from ideal - booze, women, noisy companies ...

And even when Sergei Shnurov with the Leningrad group became the idol of millions with his "alcoholic ska-punk", the heart of the former did not thaw. The daughter began to communicate with her father when she became independent.

Second wife

The second marriage of Sergei Shnurov was also short-lived: from 1999 to 2002. Svetlana Kostitsyna was an advanced music manager. The woman led the Pep-Ci group and began organizing concerts of the Leningrad group. AT financial plan the life of a musician gradually improved (although it was still far from the salaries of the 21st century). In 2000, Svetlana gave birth to Sergei's son Apollo. Soon the musician became interested in young girls. It is unlikely that even the wisest wife could like it. The couple divorced, but Svetlana and Sergey continued to work together for some time - Shnurov always financially supported his son.

Third wife (civilian)

She met Sergei Shnurov on the set of the film "Games of the Moths". The star came to the shooting of the episode with his participation not very sober, but this did not stop him from having an affair. The girl studied in the 10th grade, Shnurov was 14 years older than Oksana. Love passions flared up serious.

The couple did not hide from prying eyes: in the morning, Sergei accompanied Oksana to school and, without hesitation, kissed on the school porch. Akinshina admitted to classmates that if it were not for her beloved Shnurov, she would not have come to the first lessons at all.

Teachers called Akinshina's mother - they complained about "success" in their studies. But everything was useless - the girl lived with Sergei Shnurov and she had no time for lessons.

By the way, it was Sergei who helped Oksana survive the death of Sergei Bodrov - Akinshina starred in his "" and was very upset by the tragedy. Cords supported and helped to survive a difficult period.

Young Akinshina was insanely jealous civil husband and arranged because of this noisy scenes. She paid the price for this - Shnurov abandoned her. At the beginning, he said about his relationship with Akinshina: “This is generally some kind of cosmos for me!” Escaped, tired of the scenes and scandals Sergei three years later.

Fourth wife

The musician ran away to another lover - to Elena Mozgova (Matilda). The wedding was played in 2010, during the years together, Matilda made a man out of Cord. The ballerina managed to curb "Shnurov's" drunkenness - and without the help of doctors and clinics. The leader of the "Leningrad" group learned to drink much less, became a stylish and respectable man, began to dress fashionably and expensively and earn very decent money. There are a lot of women around...

In an interview with a glossy magazine, Sergey answered the “sore question” why the couple does not have children: “We don’t talk about it and don’t think about it. I think that you should think about children when you have ... Let's say we now have two hundred and fifty square meters, right? Now, if five hundred, then it's worth it. And now we just won't part with them. It's hard for the two of us here." And Matilda did not hide that she was not “burning with desire” to become a mother: “I do not feel disgust for this, but there is no desire either ...”

Childhood and youth

Elena Mozgovaya (real name Matilda) was born in the village of Losevo, Voronezh Region, in a poor family. When the girl was two years old, her parents, Tatyana and Vladimir, divorced. The mother married a second time and with her new husband Vladimir Nagorny moved to the village of Livenka, where Lena had a brother Igor.


But the second marriage broke up as quickly as the first. Unsuccessful attempts to establish a personal life led a desperate woman to Hinduism. Children were of little interest to her, so they grew like roadside grass.


A tragic fate awaited the close relatives of the girl. Brother Igor died young in an accident, father Matilda died, his stepfather drowned. She has two half-sisters and a brother from her father's other marriage, but has little to no relationship with them.

Since childhood, Lena dreamed of escaping from the provinces to Big city. She studied poorly, but she did not let herself be offended, which earned her honor and respect in the ranks of her peers. After graduating from school, the 17-year-old girl went to Moscow to enter VGIK, actually running away from her parents.

Carier start

Having neither connections nor money, she turned to her fellow countryman, the soloist of the 7b group, Ivan Demyan, for help. He introduced Lena to the producer of the extremely popular Tatu group at that time, Ivan Shapovalov, who took her to his team.


She worked in the producer's studio, doing small assignments. Shapovalov often came to visit famous people- so Matilda met Natalya Vodianova and her husband, Anastasia Volochkova, Eduard Limonov.


Soon she had an affair with fashion photographer Dmitry Mikheev, whom Matilda met in the same studio. He got Elena a gossip reporter for a popular glossy magazine and advised me to change my name to a more sonorous and original one - Matilda. At first it was just a pseudonym, later she officially changed her name.

First, she “had nothing to do” entered the biochemistry department of the Institute of Technology, then she remembered her long-standing passion for dancing. This lesson fascinated her so much that Matilda decided to open her own ballet school "Isadora", inviting outstanding teachers there.


In parallel, she controlled how things were going in the Blue Pushkin bar, which belonged to her husband. Shnurov sorely lacked time for him, and soon Matilda became a full-fledged mistress there. She quickly figured out the intricacies of the restaurant business and soon organized her own institution - the CoCoCo restaurant.


Thanks to the talent of Matilda and the skill of her chef, in four years the restaurant has become the most stylish and popular vacation spot in the cultural capital. Among the visitors of the institution you can always meet famous people. These are Matilda's friends, secular party girls Ksenia Sobchak, Nika Belotserkovskaya and Polina Kitsenko, Avdotya Smirnova and her husband Anatoly Chubais and many others.

2. Matilda quit science for Cord

This meeting changed the lives of both. Sergei, who already had two marriages behind him, for the first time took his wife to a church wedding. Matilda threw scientific activity and left the biochemical laboratory. As the girl explained, it interfered family life. Now Matilda is a well-known restaurateur, the owner of a ballet school, but first of all, she is a wife.

3. They missed the candy-bouquet period.

During an interview for Sports.ru, the journalist asked Matilda which date with Cord was the most romantic. It turned out that there were no dates! Their second meeting took place at a concert of the Leningrad group. After the performance, Sergei asked Matilda: “Where do you live? Let's go to you." According to the girl, she decided to “build something” out of herself, and asked the musician why. "What do you mean why? E ... sya! ” Cord answered her. “After that, the topic of dating was closed forever. I no longer expected romantic dates from this person, ”said Matilda.

4. Cord believes that their relationship was "a lot of wildlife"

Cord believes that there is a lot of romance in their relationship. “Our whole life is solid romance. Let's say I'm walking around the apartment naked. It's practically life with a monkey - sometimes I make strange sounds, and not only with my mouth, so there is a lot of romance, of course. A lot of wildlife, like Kipling, ”he told reporters.

5. In marriage, Cord stopped being selfish

According to Shnur, in marriage he stopped being selfish and began to think about the comfort of other people. The musician began to drink much less, began to ride a bicycle more and spend evenings not in taverns, but in a love "nest" near the Fontanka. The couple bought an apartment with a fireplace and antique doorknobs, and they travel to London and New York for vacations.

6. Matilda turned Cord into a “style icon”

The new style of the musician is another merit of Matilda. She completely changed her husband. No stretchy sweatpants and greasy T-shirts! Now Cord wears elegant coats, hats and suits. But judging by some of the Instagram photos, punctures happen sometimes - the cord doesn't give up easily!

7. The musician's songs are inspired by his wife's stories about her friends.

At Cord and Matilda big difference aged. When they met, he was over 30, she was 20. For ten years living together the wife became a faithful companion for Cord.

8. Matilda thinks Sergei is very smart, but strict

In their free time, the couple enjoys traveling and visiting museums. Both are fond of art, understand philosophy and theology. The similarity of interests is one of the elements of the foundation on which their marriage is built. Matilda considers Cord very well-read and thinking person. And the sharpness that is characteristic of him justifies his strict character. “Shnurov is a man of fantastic erudition, and if someone is talking nonsense, he will react, and in a sharp form. He is not a snob, not evil - just strict, ”the girl said in an interview with Tatler.

9. Cord eats everything only with and is indifferent to money

In everyday life, by the way, Sergey is unpretentious. However, according to his wife, he eats everything with ketchup and never had a driver's license. Matilda has to carry it herself. According to her, she and Sergei are indifferent to money, but not indifferent to what they can buy. “This man buys whatever he likes – at least three pairs of identical shoes. Then he takes something out of the closet without looking, puts it on - and he is an icon of style, ”said Matilda.
