Do you know that the idea of holding a live casting and presenting material in the form of a reality show does not belong to the Meladze brothers, not to Konstantin Ernst, but to the former producer Alsu - Valery Belotserkovsky? Unfortunately, the idea was not implemented by the Megapol production center, but a few months later the sensational Factory project was launched.

How the Love Stories group was created

In early 2002, MTV channel and major music radio stations broadcast information about the casting of Valery Belotserkovsky's future women's team. The office of the Megapol production center began to be stormed by young and promising girls from all over Russia and neighboring countries. The selection of applicants lasted three months, but, unfortunately, behind closed doors. The reality show failed to launch. And, nevertheless, as a result of auditions and tests, four beautiful girls with good vocal abilities and an angelic appearance were selected. So the group "Love Stories" began its creative path. It was such a team that the producer wanted to create, who believes that there are already enough mediocre and depraved singers in the domestic show business. Maya, Olya, Zhenya and Christina - these are the names of the first and most successful team members.

Group producer

Who became the ideological inspirer and organizer of the group? This is a famous Russian producer Valery Belotserkovsky. His name, perhaps, will not say anything to a simple layman, but people who are interested in domestic pop music know it. In the 90s, it was one of the luminaries of the musical Olympus, who gave Russia such singers as Vadim Baikov and Alsou. After the latter left for solo swimming, little was known about the head of the Megapol production center. He was waiting and looking for real talent. In 2002, the Love Stories group became his brainchild, in 2013 he presented Anastasia Altman and the Invoice men's team.

Valery Belotserkovsky is married and has three children. For a long time he lived in a civil marriage with his wife Natalya, until the couple legalized their relationship in 2013.

Team members

The "Love Stories" group, whose composition has changed several times over the years, has managed to become a springboard for many now interesting personalities and young singers. There is very little information about the participants, however, we will try to study each of them.

So, Maya Skopich, Zhenya Huseynova, Kristina Strizhneva (a girl with glasses) and Olya Sidorova (nicknamed “Ryzhik”) are the first members of the Love Stories team. The group, Kozhevnikova Masha, which also passed the casting, was conceived as a quintet. But in the end, the quarrelsome nature of the girl did not allow her to continue her career as a singer, and four members remained in the team. LidaKomissarova and Ulyana Samorukova are also listed as former members of the first line-up, but the Love Stories group did not post photos with them on the official website, and they were not leaked to the press.

Already being a well-known society lady and planning a career as a public figure, Masha mentioned her experience as a singer. It is interesting that only now the fact about the participation of the actress from Univer in the Love Stories team has become known. Maria Kozhevnikova, whose support group in social networks is growing daily, said in an interview that, having neither a voice nor a musical education, she was enrolled as a soloist, but she was ready to study and sing, and not wash the dishes after the producer. Perhaps Kozhevnikova wanted to show that, despite her youth, she has rich life experience.

In different periods, such well-known soloists as Natalya Podolskaya and Sati Kazanova took part in the team.

Hits

The first hit, released a month after the creation of the team, was the song "School". After rotation on all radio stations in the country, the producer shot a video for this composition. The video work came out touching and unlike other products on the stage, reminiscent of retro. Actor Yegor Beroev, who took part in many videos of girls, was involved in the filming of the video. Three months later, having developed a repertoire, the band gave the first live concert.

Then followed such hits as “Three nights”, “How is it”, “Way home” and “Tell me why”. By the way, the last two clips were recorded by a group of three people. Alreadyin 2005, the composition of the trio changed again, all the previous members left it and were replaced by new, no less promising girls.

The band's latest album includes 22 melodic compositions. The most popular of them are Shakespeare, Come Back, Goodnight Love, First Time, Just for You.

Team breakup

In its original form, the quartet lasted only a year. After some time, member Evgenia left him, and the Love Stories group, whose photo increasingly began to appear on the pages of gossip columns, turned into a trio.

The girls continued to work, sang touching songs, made great videos.

But immediately after the end of the contract, each of them went their own way. Already in 2010, Maya Gubenko-Skopic began to perform solo and released the first video for the song "A Moment Before Winter". Nothing is known about the fate of the other former members of the trio.

During the thirteen years of its existence, the old members left the team and replenished with new ones. And, nevertheless, today the group "Love Stories" goes on tour in the cities of Russia, shoots clips, gives interviews. The producer of the team often attracts his wards to all kinds of charity events.

Love Stories Group: 2015 line-up

Today the team exists and develops. Its new members - Vika, Sveta, Nastya and Dina - have already managed to win the love of the public. Gener althe concept of the group has remained the same - pretty girls, without a hint of promiscuity and vulgarity, sing about their feelings and in each video they tell more and more new love stories. Girls improve their talent and strive to become mature artists. In the future, perhaps, one of them will choose a solo career, but for now, "Love Stories" in full force are performing and delighting the audience.
