Who is Volochkova dating now? Humiliated Volochkova received an unexpected blow

Anastasia Volochkova is a ballerina who has achieved the titles of Honored Artist of Russia, People's Artist of Karachay-Cherkessia and North Ossetia-Alania. She was a prima singer at the Mariinsky and Bolshoi theaters. Her awards include the Benois Dance Prize and the Golden Lion.

Today she is one of the most shocking personalities of Russian show business, whose scandalous fame almost never leaves news feeds about Russian celebrities, thanks to Anastasia’s interviews and active self-PR on the social network Instagram and on popular talk shows.

Childhood: Leningrad

The girl, born on a sunny January morning in 1976 in the Leningrad maternity hospital on Tchaikovsky Street, was received by the midwife in a “shirt” and prophesied: “That means she will be happy.” Young mother Tamara Antonova always dreamed of a daughter, she even chose a name in advance, like the heroine of the fairy tale “The Scarlet Flower” - Nastenka.


The newborn's father, Yuri Volochkov, picking up his wife and daughter from the maternity hospital, smiled joyfully, anticipating how he would soon teach the baby to play tennis. Yuri Fedorovich was a champion at one time Soviet Union in table tennis. When Nastya was born, he worked as a coach at a sports school.

According to Volochkova’s memoirs, it was her dad who was the main authority of her childhood. From him, the girl inherited willpower, the ability to withstand difficulties, and perseverance. For little Nastya there was always a holiday when her completely busy father (her parents divorced before she entered first grade) came to pick her up at kindergarten, and they went for a walk together.


Anastasia Volochkova’s childhood, in her own words, was spent in poverty. Until two years, the family of the future ballerina lived in a communal apartment. I had to sleep on the floor and wander around the removable corners. Despite poverty and the divorce of her parents, Nastya did not consider herself unhappy. The girl and her parents spent the whole summer traveling in their own car and traveled all over Crimea.


Tamara Vladimirovna, an engineer by training and a tour guide by profession, often took Nastya to museums and exhibitions. When my daughter turned five, a woman took her to see The Nutcracker at the Mariinsky Theater. Having once dreamed of a career in ballet, the woman was not surprised when, at the exit from the theater, Nastenka, with sparkling eyes, expressed a desire to enroll in a ballet club. The ballet stage became the main dream and meaning of life for the girl, despite the difficulties she encountered at the very beginning of her journey.


At first, only her parents believed in Nastya. The teachers unanimously insisted that the girl should not waste time on ballet. And although there wasn’t a lot of money in the family, to make Nastenka’s dream come true, dad and mom hired private teachers and bought their daughter pointe shoes at the Mariinsky Theater. They did everything possible so that she believed in herself and reached the desired heights. The girl tried her best to become the best. And she succeeded, although not for long.

Youth: St. Petersburg – Moscow

Not without difficulty, but Anastasia managed to enter the Vaganova Academy of Russian Ballet. She was accepted under the condition of a six-month probationary period, motivating this decision by the fact that Volochkova had no talent. The bullying of one of the teachers was remembered for a long time by the aspiring ballerina, but she was morally supported by her classmates. Fortunately, her efforts were noted by the legendary Natalya Dudinskaya, the wife of the artistic director of the Academy, Konstantin Sergeev.


The teacher had the right to choose the best students in her class. Anastasia is still proud that Natalya Mikhailovna chose her and made every effort to make her a professional. It was Dudinskaya who brought Volochkova onto the stage Mariinsky Theater long before graduating from ballet school. The young ballerina was accepted into the troupe as a soloist a year before graduating from the Academy, which Anastasia graduated with honors.

Not just with honors. This is the only case in the history of the Mariinsky Theater when a graduate of the school was accepted a year before graduation, and already to the position of a soloist. My state exam became the ballet “Swan Lake” on the stage of the Mariinsky Theater.

The ballerina's first years were marked by roles in Giselle and Corsair, Swan Lake and Raymond. But, as the ballerina later admitted, she had to face envy and intrigue, which led to her being removed from all roles and generally left without work.

At the end of the nineties, Anastasia moved to Moscow. Artistic director Bolshoi Theater Vladimir Vasiliev invited Volochkova to play the main role of the Swan Princess in Swan Lake, his new original production. At the same time, she performed in productions by Yuri Grigorovich - “La Bayadère” (Nikia), “The Sleeping Beauty” (Raymonda and the Lilac Fairy).

Swan Lake. Anastasia Volochkova

As unofficial sources reported, Anzori Aksentyev helped Volochkova become a prima singer, using his connections. Anastasia herself called these assumptions new intrigues against her and even denied the fact of acquaintance with the sports philanthropist.

Grand Theatre

The beginning of the new millennium was marked for Volochkova by participation in the Austrian ballet competition, at which she was awarded the honorary Golden Lion prize as the most talented European ballerina.


Vice-President of the English National Ballet Anthony Kerman facilitated her engagement, and Anastasia performed the role of Fairy Carabosse in “Sleeping Beauty” by choreographer Derek Dean on the London stage. For the sake of the Russian ballerina, Kerman left his family. In the early spring of 2000, Volochkova returned to the Bolshoi Theater stage, signing a contract for all the main roles.


2002 brought the ballerina the title of Honored Artist of Russia and the Benois of Dance award from the international ballet community, established by Yuri Grigorovich. Rumors about his patronage of Volochkova spread throughout Moscow and at the award ceremony the ballerina was booed by unknown people.


The unexpected departure of Vladimir Vasiliev from the Bolshoi Theater entailed a series of troubles for the prima. The new director Anatoly Iksanov did not enter into a long-term contract with Volochkova, limiting himself to four months, and then completely declared her unsuitability and problems with “excess weight.”


The scandal surrounding the ballerina that erupted in 2003 led to Anastasia filing a lawsuit and involving the media in the situation. Despite the fact that Volochkova won the litigation, the situation in the theater became so tense that the ballerina left the Bolshoi stage and took up solo projects.

Soon the ballerina voiced her own version of her dismissal: they say, in this way she took revenge on her ex-lover, billionaire Suleiman Kerimov, who was unable to come to terms with Anastasia leaving him.


At the director's suggestion, the male part of the troupe, with the exception of Nikolai Tsiskaridze, signed a letter in which they officially refused to be Volochkova's partners.

Anastasia, performing a solo concert in the Kremlin, declared from the stage that she believed in the triumph of justice and that she would still be able to dance for her audience on the famous stage of the Bolshoi Theater. And the presence of admirers of her talent in the Kremlin is not only support and justification for her creativity, but also a great victory for the ballerina herself over those people and forces who wanted to deprive her of creative fulfillment.

Krasnodar Ballet Theater

In 2004, Volochkova accepted the invitation of Yuri Grigorovich and became a prima singer at the Krasnodar Ballet Theater.


During the same period, she tried her hand as an actress, starring in leading role in Ali Khamraev’s crime series “A Place in the Sun” based on the novel of the same name by Polina Dashkova. Her Katya Orlova falls from the glittering stage spotlights into the sticky web of a deadly whirlpool of investigations. Volochkova’s partners on the set were Dmitry Brusnikin, Sergei Gorobchenko, Igor Yatsko, Iya Savvina, Maxim Averin, Lyudmila Chursina. Despite the star cast, the series lasted only one season and a sequel was not filmed.


But after that, Anastasia was invited to play the role of Natalie Goncharova in Anatoly Ivanov’s drama “The Black Prince” about the genius of Russian poetry Alexander Pushkin. Volochkova spoke about her participation in the movie:

The acting experience was very interesting for me. I’m used to the fact that on stage you need to express emotions with the plasticity of your body, but here all the attention was focused on facial expressions. The film won the Grand Prix at the Independent international festival movie. And we started a good, warm relationship with my partner Levani Uchaneishvili, a Hollywood actor.

Next, the Ballerina appeared with a cameo in the popular TV series “Don’t Be Born Beautiful”, “Practice”, “Random Relationships”. 2006 brought Anastasia the title People's Artist Karachay-Cherkessia. Volochkova could be seen more and more often in television projects - first in “ Ice Age"with Anton Sikharulidze, then in the third season of the same show, but with a different partner, Maxim Marinin. As a performer of Igor Nikolaev’s song “Ballerina” she took part in Alla Pugacheva’s “Christmas Meetings”.


In 2009, Volochkova ran for mayor of Sochi, but the election commission withdrew her candidacy. In the same year, the Krasnodar Ballet Theater terminated its contract with the ballerina ahead of schedule. According to Anastasia, the reason was her nomination for mayor.


Further career

They started talking about Volochkova again in connection with her autobiographical book “The History of a Russian Ballerina.” Reviews in various media outlets were far from ambiguous; a “photophoto” of the cover with a portrait of Anastasia even appeared on the Internet. In the meantime, she defended her Master of Business Administration degree on the topic of creative schools in Russian regions at the Higher School of Economics and opened a Children's Creativity Center named after herself in the capital.


In 2011, Volochkova started Instagram. The photos she published caused a new series of criticism and bewilderment. As the ballerina herself explained, she posted candid pictures “to spite the paparazzi” and also because she had nothing to hide.

In general, it was Anastasia Volochkova who set the trend for candid photos “on the verge”, and her love for the splits is at the forefront unexpected places, with a minimum of clothing, gave birth to a joke about “butterfly pussy.” This expression was first uttered by Evelina Bledans in 2014 on the air of the show “The Invisible Man” and aroused the anger of the ballerina. Anastasia intended to sue Evelina, but did not move from words to action.


Another scandalous photo revelation was her intimate photos with the main blonde of Russia Nikolai Baskov, although Anastasia denied rumors of an affair with the singer.


At the same time, the ballerina was active in social and social life. Organized a tour of Ukrainian cities dedicated to children. Presented her new project"Emerald of Russia". She toured Russia and abroad with her ballet and dance show.

In 2016, she refused to participate in the play “A Man Came to a Woman” due to disagreements with director Joseph Raikhelgauz and partner in the play Said Bagov. The scandal that broke out at the School of Modern Play theater disrupted Volochkova’s theatrical debut.

2019 was a generous year for premieres for Anastasia. She presented the song “To the Bottom” on Instagram, collecting hundreds of enthusiastic responses. Her performance was even compared to “the voice of Pugacheva herself.” Then Volochkova announced that almost everything was ready for the new project “Ballerina and the Clown,” in which Nikolai Chelnokov became her partner:

My swan tutu is almost ready... Dear workers from the best theater workshop, saving my time, which I completely devote to many hours of rehearsals, came to my home for a fitting. Working with feathers is very painstaking. I always great importance I give it to the costumes, they are very impressive for all the numbers. And my masters are the best. Thank you, dear ones, to all the employees of your workshop!

Another, perhaps the most important premiere, was the publication of Anastasia’s new book, “Payment for Success: A Frank Autobiography.” In the preface, Volochkova warns readers that she tells everything extremely honestly, without hiding the shocking facts of her fate and creative life.


Personal life of Anastasia Volochkova

While still studying at the ballet academy, Anastasia had an affair with classmate Nikolai Zubkovsky. The young man belonged to the famous ballet dynasty; his grandmother, Inna Zubkovskaya, once shone on the stage of the Mariinsky Theater in leading positions, and then became a teacher. Evil tongues say that it was thanks to the patronage of Nikolai Volochkov’s relatives that she received warm place in the Mariinsky Theater.


But the ballerina hardly mentions her youthful romance. Anastasia herself calls her first love her partner in the ballet “Swan Lake” Farukh Ruzimatov, with whom she fell in love when she was nineteen:

I loved dancing with Farukh, he has amazing movement. He was not only my partner, but also the first man I fell in love with. We were connected by sincere, tender feelings. Farukh is a man amazing beauty. Such an open face and smile can only belong to a noble person.

But, according to Volochkova in Boris Korchevnikov’s program “The Fate of a Man,” her mother stood on the path to their common happiness. She didn’t like her daughter’s chosen one, and she made a lot of efforts to separate the lovers.


Later, Anthony Kerman, Mikhail Zhivilo and Sergei Polonsky alternately appeared in the ballerina’s life.

The ballerina also spoke about strong feelings for American comedian Jim Carrey, who met Volochkova in 2002 and was allegedly fascinated by the Russian ballerina so much that he flew to her performances from another continent. But the relationship did not work out due to the total employment and devotion of both to their own professions.

At one of the parties in the late nineties, already living in Moscow, Anastasia found herself in the company of Ksenia Sobchak and at that time her young man Vyacheslav Leibman. The ballerina, in fact, stole the gentleman from the future famous TV presenter. Long years after that, Sobchak did not communicate with Volochkova. But her traitor-lover did not date Anastasia for long.


At the beginning of the new millennium, the prima of the Bolshoi Theater accepted the courtship of the oligarch Suleiman Kerimov, whom he still talks about as main love her life. No one has ever courted Anastasia with such generosity and romantic scope. And again her daughter’s happiness was prevented by her mother. According to the ballerina, she was already carrying a child from her lover when her mother forced her to have an abortion and separated her from Kerimov, telling him that her daughter was dating someone else.


A little earlier, Anastasia put forward a different version of the separation. Allegedly, having learned Suleiman’s position regarding the possible birth of their joint child, whom he would take from her to be raised with her family, she was so worried that she had a miscarriage. Be that as it may, the ballerina broke up with Kerimov without becoming his second beloved wife, and claiming that it was he who had a hand in her dismissal from the Bolshoi Theater.

The fate of man. Anastasia Volochkova

In 2007, the media excitedly described the luxurious wedding of the outrageous ballerina Anastasia Volochkova and Doctor of Law, entrepreneur Igor Vdovin. Later it turned out that the couple never reached the registry office, and the ceremony was fictitious. But at that time they had already become the parents of a charming daughter Arisha. However, according to Anastasia, they celebrated the wedding three times: in St. Petersburg, Moscow and Thailand:

...when we went on a romantic trip, Igor decided to surprise me. We woke up early in the morning, and he said: “Nastya, get ready. We're going by boat to the islands." And there everything was already decorated with flowers and ribbons, they were waiting for us. Spent with us wedding ceremony according to Thai traditions. It was very beautiful.

As a family, Vdovin and Volochkova did not live long. In addition, Anastasia still has not received back her money, which she lent to her ex-husband ten years ago - no less than three million dollars. Allegedly, he took them under the pretext of arranging the future of their common daughter, promising to buy him and Arisha a house, but this did not happen:

When a few years ago, the house I rented for my daughter and me was robbed, I told law enforcement agencies that one of the suspects, based on whose tip the robbery could have been committed, could be Vdovin. He was very scared. That's why I forgave him then.

As Anastasia said in one of the interviews, her ex-husband was a gigolo living at her expense. And when he saw the Maybach given to him by his next lover, he only asked why he gave Volochkova such an expensive car. They say that he himself only gave her a Lexus he had taken on credit, and even that one was initially registered to his company. And in order to get a loan, she first sold the Mercedes given to her by Suleiman Kerimov. And they lived in an apartment that Kerimov gave. Igor was in no hurry to buy his own.


After Vdovin, Anastasia did not share details of her personal life with fans for several years. But then she announced that she was in love and happy. The new chosen one was the head of the oil transportation company Bakhtiyar Salimov, whom she met on Valentine's Day during a tour in Vladivostok.


Volochkova’s boyfriend was also businessman Chermen Dzotov, whose name is associated with a scandal involving the hacking of his online account and the publication of erotic photographs in which the ballerina was clearly visible. Someone considered this event a PR campaign; Anastasia herself said that she was happy for everyone who is concerned about the topic of her bed issue, because now they can be sure that the ballerina is having sex.


In 2018, programmer Mikhail Loginov became the dancer’s lover, whom she spoke of as a man with a huge heart.


Intimate relationships Volochkova was also connected with her personal driver Alexander Skirtach. This circumstance became clear when the ballerina sued him for fraudulent actions against her.


According to the dancer, Alexander stole from her for several years, and in 2017 he allegedly left for his mother’s funeral, asking the owner to a large sum money. The mother turned out to be alive and healthy, as Anastasia later learned about. Skirtach was given a three-year suspended sentence, but the former driver and boyfriend filed an appeal, saying that he had repaid part of the debt to the ballerina (the damage was estimated at 376 thousand rubles).

By the way, friends (Volochkova and Dzhigurda) decided to create a new project together, which they promise to talk about in more detail later.

Anastasia Volochkova now

“My daughter is my biggest support”

By the end of 2019, Volochkova arrived with the baggage of fame, albeit scandalous, without which she could no longer imagine her life. In a recent interview, Anastasia proudly spoke about her daughter Ariadne. The girl is an excellent student at school, a children's soloist musical theater“Domisolka”, then a student in the studio modern dance Alla Dukhova "Todes" and a student in the Federation ballroom dancing from Stanislav Popov. Anastasia believes that she simply must show her daughter the full range of what she can do.


Now Ariadna is passionate about equestrian sports, a love for which her father instilled in her at the age of three. Then the little girl rode a pony, and now she already has a second adult level in dressage. She enjoys discussing CS with her followers on Instagram.

Volochkova calls her daughter her support and support, despite the disagreements that sometimes arise between them. For example, the artist claims that Arisha was jealous of her new lover, whom she does not show to anyone, but they soon managed to resolve this conflict:

If someone wants to destroy us, no one will succeed. Our relationship with Arisha cannot be separated. She is my biggest supporter and when she came to my rehearsals and fed me seaweed, it moved me to tears.

However, Volochkova no longer wants children in order to avoid being manipulated by her own mother, with whom Anastasia has a very difficult relationship.

“For my mother, I am just a successful project”

In her book “Pay for Success,” she does not spare her parent, talking about how from childhood she was more of a business project than a beloved daughter. In addition, according to Anastasia, her mother subconsciously tried to destroy her relationships with men, since she herself was unhappy both in her profession and in her personal life. And envy of her, successful my own daughter, who realized all her unfulfilled dreams, moved her when the woman interfered in Nastya’s relationships with men.


One day, Volochkova could not stand it and posed the question harshly: either her mother stops imposing her opinion on her, or she leaves her house. Now Tamara Antonova lives in St. Petersburg, is engaged in photography, maintains her blog on Instagram and, according to Anastasia, supports herself.


The socialite’s father, a former USSR champion in doubles table tennis, is in the Opeka boarding house after suffering a double stroke in 2009. He is taken for walks to wheelchair, the man cannot walk or talk. Volochkova pays for her father’s maintenance and treatment, occasionally visiting him at the boarding house.

“Sobchak has always been jealous of me”

A sensational scandalous interview, for which the host of the YouTube channel “Beware, Sobchak!” arrived at Volochkova’s country house, is still being discussed by netizens, even after the equally scandalous wedding of Ksenia Sobchak and Konstantin Bogomolov.

Be careful, Sobchak! Visiting Anastasia Volochkova

Anastasia believes that she has fallen into the circle of people at whose expense the presenter organizes her own PR. In addition, she claims that Ksenia herself wanted to become a ballerina, but never became, and therefore cannot accept the fact that Volochkova is a ballerina who danced “Swan Lake” at the Mariinsky Theater when her whole family was sitting in the front row of the theater stalls.

Filming in Volochkova’s house lasted six and a half hours, the hostess even gave everyone a tour of the bedrooms. But after that, Sobchak, taking advantage of the pause during which Anastasia changed clothes and adjusted her makeup, went back to the bedroom and began rummaging through the bedside tables and closets. Ksenia even showed the intimate object she found to Gleb Pyanykh, with whom she allegedly consulted as a professional on what could and could not be shown on air. Later, the ballerina said that Sobchak pretended to find an intimate toy in Volochkova’s bedroom, which we actually didn’t have.


In addition, Ksenia kept hinting that Volochkova met the guests already drunk, and then touched the bottle several more times right in the frame. As for the hidden cameras and microphones in the bathhouse where both were steaming, Anastasia said that Sobchak sold her conscience for the sake of ratings on YouTube.


Therefore, when Ksenia and Konstantin began to invite the ballerina to dance at their wedding, Volochkova refused, citing the fact that she did not want to take part in the “booth.” But she still gave the gift: a bouquet of three white roses and white feathers... with pepper, thus hinting that Ksenia’s sharp tongue would be better used in relations with her new husband. “And I no longer want to have anything in common with Ksenia Sobchak,” said the ballerina.

Now Volochkova continues to live, as she says, freely, openly and independently, with an open soul and the ability to manage her own time. visited Black Sea coast, where she presented the play “Ballerina and the Clown” with Nikolai Chelnokov. Her famous splits also graced this production. But until now, Anastasia does not show anyone the face of her loved one, while saying that for the first time in her 43 years she is truly happy.
