Not all the stars of the most scandalous domestic reality show have a career as successful as Olga Buzova, who became a show business star and presenter of the central TV channel

Thirteen and a half years have already passed since the start of the longest-running Russian reality show “Dom-2”. During this time, hundreds, if not thousands of people took part in it. Some came to build love, others dreamed of fame. Some of the participants in the television production became stars, while others, on the contrary, disappeared from the public eye. About how the fate of the 15 brightest participants in the entire history of the project turned out, in the material on the site

Olga Buzova (31 years old)

Viewers immediately remembered this bright blonde, one of the youngest participants in the TV show. Confident Olga boldly left her native St. Petersburg and came to the television production site. According to the results of the audience voting, Buzova was recognized as the best participant in the project; her sincerity captivated viewers. Couple of the most popular participant and Romana Tretyakova became the strongest in the perimeter of “House-2”, and after their breakup Olga was alone for a long time.

In 2007, her career as a TV presenter began: in the program “Morning on TNT” Buzova hosts her own column “Beware, stylists!”, and in 2008 she became the presenter of “Dom-2”, replacing Ksenia Sobchak.

Today Olga Buzova is a TV presenter, writer, designer, and actress. After a divorce from a football player Dmitry Tarasov The star blonde radically changes her image.

Stepan Menshchikov (40 years old)

Arriving in Moscow from Yekaterinburg, Stepan became one of the first participants in the reality show “Dom-2”. On the project, he won the hearts of the brightest and most beautiful girls. After the refusal of his next passion, Alexandra Kharitonova, to whom he proposed marriage, Menshchikov left the television set, but not the television channel.

Stepan participated in the project “Stars Change Their Profession”, worked as the host of the entertainment show “Xu from Xu” together with his “colleague” Rustam Solntsev, later became the founder and host of the program “Good night, guys!”

Menshchikov quite often took part in popular television shows: he tried to find his love in the studio of the “Let's Get Married!” program. In 2011, the ex-participant of “House-2” met Evgeniy Shamaev, who later married him and gave birth to two children. In 2016, the married couple broke up, and on the air of the show “Actually,” Stepan was provided with the results of DNA tests, which showed that he was not the biological father of his eldest son. After the broadcast, Stepan Menshchikov admitted that he was extremely shocked, but did not intend to give up his son.

Now the former participant in the television production continues to build a career as a showman and develop his own business, also related to the field of show business.

Sun (34 years old)

21-year-old native of Penza Olga Nikolaeva came to Moscow to participate in the project, where she took the pseudonym Sun. On the project, Olya did not achieve much success on the love front, but she showed herself very successfully creatively. She wins one after another competitions organized by the television network, realizes herself as a musician: The Sun composed and performed many of the songs of “House-2” and recorded the anthem of the reality show.

Roman Tretyakov (37 years old)

Having passed the casting for a new show in his native Taganrog, Roman Tretyakov came to Moscow for a television production, where he soon became a favorite of viewers. It was largely thanks to his initiative that competitions and various events began to be held at Dom-2. After breaking up with the scandalous project participant Elena Berkova, with whom they even played a joke wedding, Roman began to build a relationship with Olga Buzova. For a long time, the couple had the highest ratings. But over time, the feelings between them began to fade, and by the end of August 2007, Roman decided to leave the project - without Buzova.

Outside the perimeter, Tretyakov made many attempts to return to the screen. However, he never managed to become a TV presenter. Now Roman is engaged in hosting entertainment events, for which he himself writes scripts. The family life of the former participant in the television project did not work out, marriage to a model Svetlana Sokolova fell apart after three years, the former spouses are raising a son together.

May Abrikosov (36 years old)

Young actor Roman Tertishny from Voronezh spectacularly appeared in the image of a knight on a television set back in 2004. May immediately won the attention of the audience; the girls liked him for his eccentricity, but for a long time he did not start a relationship on the project. During his stay at “House-2”, Abrikosov’s most vivid romantic relationships connected him with Olga Solntse and Alena Vodonaeva, but attempts to “build love” within the perimeter were unsuccessful. Disappointed in the relationship and quarreling with the presenters, Abrikosov leaves Dom-2.

Behind the perimeter, Roman is trying to realize himself as an actor, but after several unsuccessful attempts to return to the screens, he leaves for his native village, where he moves away from everyone and goes into religion. For a long time nothing was heard about him; according to neighbors, Tetrishny rarely appeared even on the street.

Now the former participant of “House-2” has found a job in the village and says that he has finally met his true love. He avoids publicity. Recently, Roman has been writing accusatory notes about “House-2”.

Alena Vodonaeva (35 years old)

A student of the Faculty of Journalism at Voronezh University came to the project to Stepan Menshchikov. A spectacular girl with expressive behavior immediately won the attention of not only him, but also television viewers. The interest of the audience was fueled by scandals and intrigues in which Alena was often involved. Without linking her fate with any of the participants, Vodonaeva leaves the project, believing that she has outgrown it.

Now Vodonaeva is a TV presenter, model and blogger. Actively participates in popular television projects and fashion shows. In September 2017, Alena got married for the second time. Her chosen one was a musician and DJ Alexey Kosinus. From his first marriage to a businessman Alexey Malakeev the girl is raising a seven-year-old son.

Anastasia Dashko (33 years old)

The girl came to the project from Salekhard, being already divorced. Temperamental Nastya Dashko secretly received the title of queen of scandal; she was often caught in deceit and lies. On the project, the girl had a romantic relationship with Sam Seleznev. Many call their couple the brightest in the entire history of “House-2”. However, Sam was never able to tame the obstinate chosen one: they left the project together, but separated almost immediately.

Outside the perimeter, Dashko launched extensive commercial activities. She was convicted of fraudulent schemes and sentenced to three years in prison.
Now Anastasia is happily married with her husband Konstantin Kuleshov she is raising her son Klim. Dashko’s friend Olga Nikolaeva-Solntse became the boy’s godmother.

Sam Seleznev (38 years old)

Even before appearing on the project, Sam was a star in his native Krasnodar. He danced for many years and continued to develop creatively on a television set. Independent and reasonable, Sam Seleznev immediately stated that he would not waste his time on frivolous relationships. His union with Anastasia Dashko became very popular on the project, but later the young people separated. The young man also entered the history of “House-2” as a person who said that he was “not the son of a Rottweiler” - meaning, “not the son of Rockefeller,” Sam said this in response to yet another financial claim from his girlfriend.

Friendly relations between the former lovers remained: Seleznev supported Dashko when she found herself in a difficult life situation due to problems with justice.

Returning to Krasnodar, Sam worked as a presenter at corporate events and a DJ. Now he has moved to Moscow, where he opened a company organizing weddings, parties and other events. Continues to work as a DJ and presenter.

Victoria Karaseva (38 years old)

The aspiring singer, Muscovite Victoria, or Tori, as she called herself, came to the television project to find love and attract the attention of the general public. After several failed relationship attempts, Tori started an affair with Vyacheslav Dvoretsky, whom she later married. The couple left the project, saying that they had found love.

In 2009, Karaseva had an accident. In one of the Moscow restaurants where she and her husband were relaxing, the couple was served a dish with seafood. By tragic accident, there was a shell fragment in the food, which Vika swallowed. He seriously damaged the esophagus and stomach, making the girl disabled at less than 30 years old.

Now Victoria Karaseva is trying to restore her lost health, is organizing a country house and recording new songs in recording studios.

Victoria Bonya (37 years old)

Model Victoria Bonya got on the set immediately after the casting. Vika soon began to build a relationship with Stepan Menshchikov. Their endless scenes and quarrels captivated TV viewers, and the couple gained a huge number of fans. TV viewers noticed the neatness and thriftiness of the girl, which Stepan could not appreciate. After breaking up with Menshchikov, Bonya never built a relationship with anyone, but she struck up a friendship with Anton Potapovich, which is what I came to initially. After Anton decided to leave Dom-2, she followed him.

Beyond the perimeter, the girl’s popularity in the project played into her hands: job offers immediately poured in. She began acting in TV series, movies, videos, and hosting television programs. In 2012, Victoria gave birth to a Monegasque millionaire Alex Smurfit daughter Angelina. In 2016, Bonya separated from her common-law husband, leaving little Angelina to her father due to her busy work schedule. Now Victoria spends a lot of time in America, working as a model.

Rustam Solntsev (40 years old)

Rustam Kalganov(Solntsev is his pseudonym) - became one of the most scandalous participants in the project. Working as a model and radio DJ, he decided to come to Dom-2. As part of the project, Rustam weaved intrigues, was the instigator of scandals, and started rumors. After a conflict with the couple Dashko and Seleznev, he left the project. Then the producers gave the rated participant new chances: Solntsev made two attempts to return to the show, but he failed to build love. In November 2009, due to scandals and accusations of theft, Rustam had to leave the project completely.

Outside the perimeter, Rustam Solntsev opened his own beauty salon, which is thriving to this day. The outrageous participant in the TV show also has not disappeared from television screens; in addition, he maintains his own column on the Instagram page “Dear Mom!” and promotes his YouTube channel. Leads entertainment events. Was married, but divorced.

Alexander Gobozov (35 years old)

Alexander came to the television project after the army. Kind and romantic, he tried with all his might to build love. Trying to start a family with Nadezhda Ermakova outside the perimeter was a fiasco; in 2013, Gobozov returned to the project alone. Finding himself back at the television set, Gobozov moved into a VIP house with his young wife Aliana Ustienko. In October of the same year, the girl announced that she was pregnant, which Alexander was incredibly happy about. The participants got married and left the project.

The birth of a child did not bring peace to the family: the Gobozovs quarreled, fought, swore, but are still together and raising their son Robert. The family lives in Moscow and quite often comes to visit Dom-2; outside the perimeter, Alexander is quite successfully engaged in network marketing.

Daria Pynzar (31 years old)

As a third-year student, Dasha Chernykh came to Dom-2. On the project she tried to build relationships with Rustam Solntsev and womanizer Andrey Cherkasov, however, true love came to Daria in the person of an athlete Sergei Pynzar.

In 2010, he proposed to his beloved. The wedding took place on the set of “House-2”; the couple had no intention of leaving the project at that time. Even pregnancy did not prevent Daria Pynzar from being one of the most active participants in the TV show. After the birth of the child, the couple moved to a city apartment, appearing on the project extremely rarely. This began to cause outrage among fans and as a result, Pynzary had to leave the project.

Now Daria Pynzar is a happy wife and mother of two children. Together with her husband, she takes part in various television projects and works as an event host.

Nikita Kuznetsov (30 years old)

Once on the television set, the guy spent a long time courting the main beauties of “House-2,” almost one at a time. Returning to the project after being kicked out for fighting, Nikita Kuznetsov focused on his relationship with Nelly Ermolaeva. In 2011, the couple decided to get married. The wedding ceremony took place in Verona, the homeland of Romeo and Juliet. Soon after the wedding, Kuznetsov and Ermolaeva left Dom-2.

Outside the perimeter, the marriage began to fall apart, and the couple decided to separate without scandals. After the divorce, Nikita once again returns to the project, where she again begins to care for all the participants in a row. After a brawl with another chosen one, Kuznetsov is kicked out. In 2016, he returned to the project as a presenter in the Seychelles, and soon appeared again in the clearing as a participant in “House-2”. Finally, having found my love on the project in the person Darina Markina, Nikita decides to leave him. Now he is engaged in network marketing.

Evgenia Feofilaktova (32 years old)

Arriving at Dom-2, Zhenya immediately drew attention to Nikita Kuznetsov, but their relationship reached a dead end after a short time. The same thing awaited her alliances with Ilya Gazhienko And Alexander Zadoynov. Everything changed when I came to the project Anton Gusev. In June 2012, the couple got married, and a few months later Feofilaktova and Gusev became parents.

A few years ago, the couple launched their own online clothing store. When the business took off, the couple opened a boutique in Moscow. Today the Gusevy brand is quite popular, and there are a dozen stores owned by Zhenya and Anton across the country. In November 2016, the couple filed for divorce. Now Feofilaktova-Guseva is actively engaged in her modeling career.

Extensive retrospective on your own

Peter Kamenchenko: Let's start with the mandatory program. On October 27 in St. Petersburg and November 2 in Moscow, two concerts will be held dedicated to the 35th anniversary of the Alisa group. What will fans of the band hear?

Konstantin Kinchev: There will be a fairly broad retrospective, not from all of Alice’s albums, of course, but everything we do will be fairly widely represented. We'll play about 22-23 songs.

Will there be any special guests?

No. We never specially invite anyone, we do everything on our own.

Former members of the group are often invited to anniversary concerts; will you invite any of the old “Alice” lineups? Shatalin or Nefedov, for example?

No. We don't invite anyone. Those who left the group - they left it. It was their conscious choice. Maybe with the exception of . Although he also decided so himself.

Are you planning to record a live album “35 Years Together”?

Let's not do this.

Will the concerts in St. Petersburg and Moscow be somehow different?

Yes, there will be differences. We will perform slightly different songs.

That is, it makes sense for fans of “Alice” to attend both concerts...

Russian rock: peak, stagnation, degradation, collapse

And with this we are done with the obligatory part. Let's now go through the history of the issue. 35 years is a long time, in 35 years “you will understand what darkness is and what light is.” How did you get into Russian rock in the first place? You were a boy from a decent family - dad a professor, mom an associate professor...

Well, miraculously. Thanks to Slava Zaderiy, who invited me to the group, and I stayed in it. Why rock? So I haven’t seen myself in a different capacity since I was 14 years old. I got what I wanted to get. In general, I believe that everyone in life gets exactly what they want and deserve. “Ask and it will be given to you,” as they say.

Well, I don’t know, I often have to deal with people whose desires are catastrophically at odds with their capabilities. And the possibilities with the result obtained.

But the longer I live, the more I become stronger in this opinion. Everyone gets exactly what they ask for, and if someone has some experience that they weren’t given enough, it means they asked poorly or didn’t really want it.

Where did Russian rock come from? There was nothing and suddenly there was such a scattering of incredibly original and talented people. They emerged like mushrooms in a clearing: Bashlachev, Grebenshchikov, Mike, Tsoi, Kinchev, Garik, Butusov, Yura Shevchuk... In my opinion, Russian rock is the most interesting phenomenon in Russian culture of the second half of the 20th century.

I think that there is a certain mystical component here. But if you start to look at it one by one, then, of course, all this was a consequence of the development of world rock culture. Specifically, “Alice” appeared thanks to the Rolling Stones. I loved this group and continue to love it. And, of course, thanks to “Time Machine,” which showed that you can safely sing in Russian.

These were two impulses, two stimuli... And there was also very fertile soil, as you said, for mushrooms. The environment was such that it allowed you to develop, to do what you consider necessary. As a result, many bright, original groups appeared almost simultaneously, which were not similar to each other. That's why they were good. Then they started combing them, formatting appeared and everything died out. That's how it should have been. After all, everything follows a sinusoid: there are some peaks of culture, then stagnation, degradation and collapse. Actually, all these stages were passed by Russian rock as a cultural phenomenon.

I recognize myself as a participant in the collapse of the USSR

Then, 35 years ago, did you expect that perestroika would happen, the USSR would collapse along with the entire socialist system and the Warsaw Pact, and all this would happen so quickly?

"Alice" - "Sky of the Slavs"

Why do you think this happened?

Because everything had already rotted and was about to fall apart.

I remember how in 1992 you wanted to buy out the base where “Alice” rehearsed in some Soviet cultural center, and bought vouchers for this. What happened to them then?

I sold them to my buddies in Orenburg, they wanted to privatize the plant there.

Did they end up with a plant?

I don’t know, I think they were all shot in the 90s.

Did you feel like you were a participant in perestroika? Your songs “My generation”, “We are together”, Tsoev’s “We are waiting for changes” seriously destroyed Soviet ideology. Did you feel responsible for this?

I recognize myself as a participant in the collapse of the USSR. But the fact that I did it meaningfully and with the desire of a revolutionary - no. We lived spontaneously, and our way of life did not fit into the way of life of the builders of communism. I regret that we lost territory: Ukraine, Belarus and Kazakhstan, but I don’t regret everything else.

Was there a chance for a different outcome of perestroika?

I think no. We were doomed to where we are now. Although there is a certain precedent with China, which quite smoothly passed the transition from totally stubborn communism to a society of some other type. But people there have a different psychology; for us this is impossible.

In 1991, at the White House, you and Stas (Namin - approx. "Tapes.ru") ran - armored personnel carriers stopped...

Yes, it was, and I pulled Garik out, he was there too...

And in 1993? I don’t remember you showing yourself in any way?

In 1993, for me, two forces were arguing with each other, and only they decided who would crush whom. A lot of blood was shed. And ideologically I was against both.

Didn't want the communists to come to power

Photo: Vladimir Astapkovich / RIA Novosti

I also heard these rumors, they are spread by Yura Shevchuk. Apparently, he was such a successful artist and performer that even then he surpassed the fees of the present great and terrible Shnur. He says that he was paid 100 thousand dollars for performing one song. I can assume that this was the case. And we, like Chifi suckers, played for a fee, for which we usually traveled all over the country. That's three thousand dollars for the entire ensemble. For 12 people. We were used in this way.

But, as far as I understand, this was a completely conscious choice?

Naturally. I played according to my own heart. I didn’t want the communists to come to power, I thought it was important.

I have the impression that we are now returning to the same stagnation that was before perestroika.

Why are we returning? We returned and were completely stuck. What will happen next? I don’t know, but it scares me when the guarantor of the Constitution allows himself to say that we will go to heaven and everyone else will die. I’ve already lived my life and I don’t care, but I’m scared for my children and grandchildren. I am grateful to the Creator of all things for taking me through life through all sorts of difficulties and leaving me here for now. Apparently, he needs me for something else, and what is their fault? When the first person of the state allows himself to say such things, it is very alarming...

Sex, drugs & rock-n-roll

This scares me too. But let's get back to Russian rock. How did the phrase sex, drugs & rock-n-roll correspond to what was happening in it?

Yes completely.

Did any of this wonderful list prevail?

Are you kidding? It would be necessary to invite a pharmacist to measure all these components in grams.

How important were drugs to creativity? The peak of the development of rock music both there and here coincided with the peak of hard drug consumption. Were drugs a stimulus for creativity or an accompanying lifestyle for musicians?

Of course, accompanying. There was no help for them. Psychostimulants - maybe. Because fatigue was accumulating, and it had to be relieved somehow.

When Jethro Tull frontman Ian Anderson was just 29 years old, he released the album Too Old To Rock'n'Roll: Too Young To Die! (“Too old to rock and roll, too young to die”). You're almost 60 and still playing rock and roll. Doesn't it seem like this music has long been the preserve of old people?

Rock 'n' roll is dead, but I'm not yet. That says it all.

McCartney, Sagrada and Oksimiron

You used to listen to a lot of music, but what about now?

I continue to listen to a lot of music. Basically this is what I loved and continue to love. Accordingly, I listen to all new releases with pleasure. Now my last McCartney went well.

"Egyptian station"?

Yes this. I really liked it.

Do you sit down and listen to music, or is it casual in the car?

But I have nowhere to sit and listen, so I listen in the car or on headphones when I walk or do something around the house.

Do you listen to Russian rap?

From Russian rap I like Sagrada. Oksimiron is interesting. This is real, there is literature there.

You now live permanently in the village. Tell us about your daily routine.

In the morning I get up and go to the gym. I study there. Then housework. I'm having lunch. I'm working in the studio...

Do you work out in the gym, I mean, in the gym? You had a heart attack not so long ago!

After a heart attack, I recovered for two years without any exercise at all. Now I mostly do anaerobic exercise. I just started to return a little, but my former form has been lost. You will never be able to return to the shape you were.

How equipped is the studio? Can the band meet and rehearse there?

This is just a small room in the house, decorated with a little foam rubber. I write songs there, make arrangements, write a voice...

About politics and the church

Shall we talk about Orthodoxy?

I can sum it up: I believe in God and I am glad that the Lord brought me into the Russian fold.

Then the actual question. How do you feel about the conflict between the Russian Orthodox Church and the Orthodox Church of Constantinople?

I feel exactly the same way as the Russian Orthodox Church. There is nothing of spiritual life in this, only politics. Constantinople is brazenly and cynically taking away churches from the Russian Orthodox Church and introducing its jurisdiction on this territory. They wanted it that way. Well, what does the Ukrainian schismatic Church of Philaret have to do with it? He himself will not do this. Filaret, given his pride and ambitions, will never relinquish his patriarchate and will never become an ordinary metropolitan in the great diocese of Constantinople.
What Bartholomew is doing is pure politics, and the Russian Church is forced to react to this. Constantinople is pushing the Orthodox Church towards schism, and the Russian Church is saying: “Come to your senses, come to your senses! Do not do it!" All this is happening under pressure from the United States. Whether Constantinople will come to its senses or go all the way, I don’t know. It’s not for me to talk about this topic, let Hilarion and other smarter and more advanced worthy husbands talk.

Then the last question. 35 years of “Alice”, anniversary concerts... What are the group’s future plans?

We are on the route until the new year, in January we will rest a little, and in February we will leave again. In addition, at the same time we are writing a new album, which will be released in the fall of 2019, if we are all alive and well.

Does the new album already have a title and some kind of ready-made concept?

Everything is there, but I’m not ready to share it yet.

Thank you and good luck with everything.

Every evening, a cheerful melody sounds from the TV screens of almost every Russian family, signaling the start of a new episode of the Dom-2 television project. Over the 11 and a half years of the existence of the reality show, thousands of young people and girls tried to build love (and at the same time a home), but not everyone succeeded. Weddings, children, even divorces - what viewers have not seen over the years. But why does interest in the project still not subside? Obviously, it’s all about the bright participants who manage not only to build relationships, but also to realize creative potential, not to mention intrigues and scandals. Let’s remember the most original “domovtsy” who did not leave the audience indifferent and are still talked about to this day.

The Sun (Olga Nikolaeva), 32 years old

She was on the project from May 2004 to May 2008.

21-year-old Olga Nikolaeva was one of the first to enter the gates of “House-2” and immediately announced: you can only call her the Sun. Charming Alexander Nelidov immediately liked the flamboyant girl-boy, and the couple occupied one of the VIP houses. The sun immediately became an idol for many TV viewers thanks to not only her fighting character, but also her musical talent. The girl graced more than one concert of the project with her songs and guitar playing, and also wrote the music and lyrics of the composition “15 Cool People,” which has been playing on the show’s intro for 11 years now.

Soon the curly-haired romantic May Abrikosov came to the project, and the Sun created a couple with him. The romance was bright, but it ended, after which both had several more relationships on the project. In 2008, the Sun won the “House-2” competition thanks to the support of television viewers and became the happy owner of a certificate for an apartment.

“The apartment that I chose in a building under construction in Krasnogorsk, two kilometers from Moscow, cost 6 million rubles,” admitted the Sun. – The certificate was for half the amount. She saved up what she needed by working from morning to night. I moved here in 2010, as soon as the house was built and the workers installed the plumbing. And it took another two years to arrange everything the way I wanted.”

Life for the Sun is not boring: every weekend the girl tours as a DJ and singer, organizes master classes on handicrafts, and in her free time engages in spiritual practices - meditation and yoga. She even has her own teacher who helps her live every day harmoniously and happily.

May Abrikosov, 34 years old

May Abrikosov (aka Roman Tertishny) appeared on the project very brightly: he appeared at the execution place in the image of a medieval knight with a sword in one hand and a falcon in the other. How could one not leave him - a shock of curly hair, huge blue eyes, refined manners. May seemed like a handsome prince come to life. The guy chose Olga Nikolaeva, the Sun, as his princess and began to court her. After some time, the girl gave up, and the new couple moved into the house. The relationship between the young people quite quickly grew from romantic to flammable: the couple quarreled every day, either because of May’s immaturity, or because of the Sun’s everyday inability. In the end, the guys parted, and Abrikosov found temporary solace in the arms of his friend Alena Vodonaeva. But this relationship did not last long, and May left the project.

Former participants of “House-2” recall that the curly-haired Abrikosov became a star over time: he scolded the show’s administrators for the “wrong” food in the refrigerator and refused to celebrate the New Year six days before the holiday. May from Voronezh’s dreams of becoming famous thanks to “House-2” and staying in Moscow never came true. First, the guy tried himself as the host of a mystical TV program, and starred in a cameo role in an unknown series.

After a series of failures, Mai settled in the house of his late grandmother in the village of Korotoyak, Voronezh region. Now the man lives alone, sometimes writes articles for the Dom-2 magazine, raises chickens, and in the summer he collects zucchini on a collective farm for 500 rubles a day. Failures in work and love, the death of his grandmother and father influenced May’s psyche: he plunged headlong into religion and blames witchcraft for all his troubles.

Anastasia Dashko, 31 years old

The beauty queen from Salekhard confidently entered the “perimeter” of the project, declaring her sympathy for Roman Tretyakov. Later, Nastya fell in love with Stas Karimov, but the guys didn’t go further than flirting. Six months later, the girl met her beloved in a clearing - he turned out to be dark-skinned Sam Seleznev from Krasnodar. The lovers stayed together for more than three years, giving the impression of being one of the strongest couples in Dom-2. Dashko periodically got into trouble, created scandals, attacked other participants with accusations - her ardent character made itself felt. One of Nastya’s favorite “victims” was Olga Buzova, but in the end the confrontation between two spectacular blondes grew into friendship.

In February 2008, Sam and Nastya won the audience vote in the competition with a hefty prize - an apartment in Moscow. However, it soon became clear that Dashko herself was sending SMS messages for herself from a free mobile phone from the project sponsors. An enterprising participant spent 160 thousand rubles on this business! Scandal, lie detector tests and, as a result, leaving the project. Having left the gates of “House-2”, Nastya went into business in Chelyabinsk, where she framed her partners for a tidy sum. Dashko was sentenced to three years in prison, however, in March 2015, after serving only one and a half years, Anastasia was released for good behavior. Recently, the girl married 30-year-old kickboxing world champion Konstantin Kuleshov. The couple lives in Zlatoust. “I’m 31 years old, I don’t have children. Each age has its own priorities. Now I really want a child!” – says Anastasia Dashko.

In August 2016, Dashko gave birth to her first child. The boy was named Klim.

Victoria Karaseva, 36 years old

The fatal beauty Tori appeared as a queen on the project and expressed sympathy for the joker Andrei Chuev. But the guy ignored Karaseva’s attention, and Vika began to wait for her prince. The girl earned a reputation as a wayward, straightforward and even tough participant thanks to her masculine character. By the way, Tori was engaged in “House-2” not only in finding a couple: not a single concert of the participants was complete without the songs of Victoria, an opera singer and actress by training. Soon the Moldovan rapper Ruslan Proskurov appeared in the “perimeter”. Tori and Russell created not only a creative duo, but also a bright couple, famous for violent scandals and fights, and then for tearful reconciliations. The guys stayed together for a couple of years and broke up after another fight.

Vika was not alone for long: the “simpleton” Vyacheslav Dvoretskov, whom no one took seriously, began to seek her attention. But Victoria accepted and even married Slava. A visit to an Italian restaurant, where Karaseva pierced her esophagus with a mussel fragment, became a test of strength for the senses. Vyacheslav was next to his wife day and night. Vika left the hospital weighing just over 30 kilograms and disabled. Vyacheslav gave his beloved an apartment for all his torment. After the amendment, Victoria became a co-founder of a wedding salon, became interested in clothing design, and did not give up music: she began recording an album in the pop-rock style. The girl managed to sue the ill-fated restaurant for part of the money for moral damages. As for the marriage with Dvoretskov, nothing is known for certain. In one of the television programs, Vika and Vyacheslav announced that they no longer live together.

“I am often asked if I will return to the project,” Tori writes on the social network. “After 30, discussing who is with whom and how is not very dignified or interesting.”

Sam Seleznev, 36 years old

A good-natured guy from Krasnodar came to Oksana Aplekaeva’s project, who dreamed of making Stas Karimov fall in love with her. But instead of a relationship with Oksana Samik, as the participants of “House-2” called him, gained friendship with Karimov. And then Anastasia Dashko drew attention to the smiling guy. The guys created a strong couple and lived together for about three years. In 2006, Sam was chosen as the winner of the “Superman Doma-2” competition, in which he won a UAZ-Patriot car. Although everyone knew Sam as a kind and calm guy (what it took for him to maintain composure in quarrels with Dashko), the provocateur Rustam Solntsev managed to bring him out. Rustam called Sam and Nastya philistines who just want to fill the refrigerator, for which he received Seleznev in the face.

At that time, people were kicked out of the project for fighting, which is what happened to Sam. However, they later returned it. Sam and Nastya left the “perimeter” together after the scandal with SMS voting, but on the “mainland” the couple broke up. Now Sam Seleznev lives in his native Krasnodar, he has his own beauty salon. At one time, the guy worked part-time as a sports news presenter on a local TV channel. Recently he has taken up music and performs in clubs as a DJ.

Roman Tretyakov, 35 years old

I was on the project from May 2004 to August 2007.

A charming bald guy from Taganrog settled in the “perimeter” of “House-2” from the very beginning of the project and established himself as a strong player. At first, Roman fell in love with the fatal beauty Elena Berkova. Nowadays the girl is known for her erotic past and present, but back then – back in 2004 – racy videos with Lena’s participation were not known. But soon everything was revealed, and Tretyakov’s beloved left the project.

The guy was not sad for a long time and took up with the blonde Olga Buzova. They created one of the strongest couples on the project: Roma defended Olya from the attacks of aggressive participants, the girl in return spoiled her beloved with surprises and romance. Their popularity even allowed them to create their own youth television show, “Romance with Buzova,” which did not last long. Who knows what this story would have led to if Roman had not been forced to leave Dom-2 in 2007, which he talks about in detail in one of his books. The lovers parted ways, and a year later Roma met a girl, Sveta, on the plane. After the wedding, the young couple had a son, Nikita, but things didn’t work out either. Today Roman is an eligible bachelor - a successful wedding host, screenwriter and student of the Faculty of Journalism at Moscow State University.

Stas and Oscar Karimov, 34 years old

Stas was on the project from May 11, 2004 to June 9, 2005, Oscar - from May 11, 2004 to December 17, 2004.

The charismatic twin brothers from Belebey were a great success among the girls at Dom-2: they were cheerful, played the guitar, and breakdanced. But the personal life of the guys on the project did not work out. Stas was unrequitedly in love with Olga Buzova, and Oscar was in love with Ksenia Borodina - the presenters of the project today. Olya simply flirted with Stas, allowed herself to be taken care of, and Ksyusha seemed to reciprocate Oscar’s feelings. But according to the rules of the project, the presenters were not allowed to make love with the participants, and Oscar left the clearing.

After leaving the project, Stasik and Osik, as the “Domovists” called them, did not leave for their hometown, but remained in the capital. Today, the brothers actively perform DJ sets and successfully tour both together and separately. In addition, the Karimovs own a travel agency and a clothing store in Cheboksary. In Moscow, Oscar runs a real estate agency. In their personal lives, the cheerful twins are also doing great. Stas married a girl with a little daughter in 2012, little Uma calls Karimov dad. Oscar is also getting ready for the wedding.

Rima Pendzhieva, 32 years old

The curvy Kiev woman Rima came to Rustam Solntsev’s project, but things didn’t work out for them. Afterwards, the girl’s attention was attracted by Vyacheslav Dvoretskov, but he also preferred Victoria Karaseva to Rome. Pendzhieva did not lose heart and began to build love with Evgeny Nikitin, but after a couple of months this relationship also ended. Soon the beauty began dating Demyan Levko and even moved into a separate apartment with him, but the miracle did not happen this time either. Despite love failures, Rima always remained a fighting “laugher” and a chic woman, as she liked to call herself. Thanks to Rome’s resilient character, she earned the love of television viewers and the title “Person of the Year” in 2009.

Later, Pendzhieva fell in love with a new member of “House-2” - Gleb Klubnichka, but he turned his attention to another girl, and Rima was again left with nothing. The chic woman’s last boyfriend on the project was Daniil Digler, whom she dated for some time outside the “perimeter”. Rima now works as a plus-size model and runs her own channel on Youtube, where she shares travel videos with subscribers.

Alessandro Materazzo, 35 years old

Was on the project in 2007, 2008 and 2009.

Italian macho Alessandro Materazzo first burst into the project in a fur coat, with diamond earrings and... sympathy for the Sun! She did not respond to the advances, and the young man decided to create a couple with Olga Buzova, who was free at that time. Ex-stripper Materazzo never tires of showing off his toned body at every opportunity. In August 2008, the guy left the project because of lies (it turned out that the guy was born not in Italy, but in Akhtubinsk, Astrakhan region), but in May 2009 he returned not as a participant, but as a producer of the musical group “Istra Witches”. Alessandro later produces Andrey Cherkasov.

For the third time, Materazzo (aka Alexander Kuryshko) came with his girlfriend Svetlana Davydova. The goal is to show how to build incredible love. However, bachelors Gleb Klubnichka and Gennady Dzhikia immediately drew attention to Alex’s girlfriend. Materazzo did not risk her happiness and took Svetlana away from the project as unexpectedly as she brought her. On September 9, 2009, outside the perimeter, the couple played a wedding, which was attended by Sveta’s four-year-old daughter from her first marriage. After this, the couple went to live in Miami. Recently, the couple were outraged by what was written about them in the press.

Anton Potapovich, 38 years old

Anton Potapovich was brought to the project by Alena Vodonaeva. The girl had just broken up with her former man, Stepan Menshchikov, and noticed the charming Anton at the casting. The young people dated for several months, but Alena, with her stormy temperament, soon became bored with Potapovich’s calm disposition. Soon a young girl, Leila, appeared in the “perimeter”, whom Anton liked at first sight. They declared themselves a couple. But this union was not calm either. The conservative Potapovich did not understand Lilu’s whims and her flirting with the guys.

Attempts to re-educate his beloved were unsuccessful - the couple separated several times. After Leila left due to problems with his studies, Anton was left alone and became an eligible bachelor of the project - girls came to him every now and then. But the participant no longer entered into a romantic relationship, but started a strong friendship with Victoria Bonya. When Anton was kicked out at the vote, his girlfriend went after him, which came as a shock to the “domovtsev”. Today Anton Potapovich is happily married to a girl 14 years younger than him, and together they are raising a two-year-old daughter, Eva. The ex-participant of “House-2” works as an art director in the entertainment industry.

Maria Adoevtseva, 30 years old

Masha Kruglykhina appeared on the project with an unusual story: she allegedly saw her common-law husband Sergei Adoevtsev, who recently ran away from her, on the air of “House-2”. Sergei Palych refused to leave the “perimeter” with his beloved, and the girl had to stay too. It’s strange, but the guy denied a relationship with Masha for a long time, but then, seeing her pressure, he gave up. By the way, not everyone remembers, but a couple of years before joining Palych, Masha already appeared on the project. The object of her attention then was May Abrikosov, who did not reciprocate her feelings. And five days later Masha was already seen off amid shouts: “We are happy!” In her relationship with Sergei, Masha was a jealous owner and did not let the man go one step further.

At the same time, Alessandro Materazzo, Gleb Klubnichka and Nikita Kuznetsov looked after her. However, nothing could stop true love, and on July 7, 2010, the guys got married, and a couple of weeks later they left the project. Now the Adoevtsevs are still together, raising their two-year-old daughter Lisa. Serezha works as a photographer, and Masha sells clothes online. After a while, the couple divorced, and Maria found new love.

Semyon Frolov, 35 years old

For the first time at the project, we saw Semyon in a hat with earflaps and with a button accordion in his hands - this is exactly how the guy showed up at the front. The talented Frolov was accepted into the team, and he created a creative union with the Sun. Semyon fell in love with the scandalous and daring Elena Bushina. During his six-month stay in the “perimeter,” the good-natured Sema, who played the button accordion and amused the honest people, was liked by the audience so much that he was almost unanimously chosen as the “host” of the project in the competition of the same name. In this, the musician surpassed even the “old man” Stepan Menshchikov, thereby making an enemy in him. By the way, other participants of “House-2” also disliked the new guy; quarrels constantly occurred between them and Frolov. At first Elena supported her beloved, but at some point she stopped. But she began to press the guy when they were alone. As a result, at the next male vote, everyone turned against Semyon, and the musician left after the first round. Bushina remained on the project.

After “House-2”, Frolov used the money he won in the competition to go to Goa, then plunged headlong into creativity. Today, Senya’s creative collection includes a dozen clips, the folk hit “All women are like women, but mine is a goddess!”, participation in television shows, and on the radio. The plans include opening a production center and helping emerging artists.

Maria Politova, 28 years old

She was on the project from January to February 2006, then from June to September 2007, then from June 4 to June 24, 2010.

The restless girl, singing always and everywhere, appeared on the threshold of “House-2” three times! Every attempt to return to the project was a kind of experiment for Maria, but the girl was never able to build a relationship with anyone and began to get bored. And even though her stay on the project was not long each time, Masha was remembered for her strange antics. Politova kept falling into a “musical trance”; the guys joked that Maria sang even in her sleep. The extravagant participant was supported by Stepan Menshchikov, a lover of strange characters. But Andrei Alexandrov took up arms against the girl, running around the “perimeter” with a poster: “Masha Politova, get out of the project!” In response, Masha only promised to “run over everyone here” and smiled modestly.

Who knows how long this madness would have continued, but Maria was unexpectedly kicked out at the vote. And on the fifth lap! The girl left, worked in Moscow as a journalist, then as a fashion model, and completed a make-up artist course. At that time, she had problems with weight: Masha gained 28 kilograms, but quickly returned to shape.

UPDATE. Maria Politova was found dead on December 13, 2017. She supposedly died a few days ago. The girl disappeared on December 4. This was announced by the common-law husband of the ex-participant of the TV show, Artem Shanurov. According to him, she suffered from bipolar disorder and was depressed, so she took powerful medications. A few days ago, Masha disappeared and took the medicine with her.

Maria Petrovskaya, 33 years old

The sexy watermelon saleswoman from Taganrog knew how to make friends with every participant in “House-2”. Masha’s kind and naive character did not correspond to her image of a fatal, curvy brunette. May Abrikosov courted the girl, but Petrovskaya did not reciprocate his feelings, preferring the more courageous Denis Kochetov. At one vote, Denis was kicked out of the project. This was a blow for Masha, but she did not follow her beloved. The trusting beauty accepted the advances of each new participant at face value, but she could not find sincere feelings. But the guys began to perceive Petrovskaya as a “backup option.”

After Vladimir, another young man with whom Maria tried to build a relationship, was kicked out, the girl could not stand it and left on her own. Petrovskaya after “House-2” avoids publicity. According to one version from fans of the project, Masha got a job as a dancer in a strip club in Moscow, according to another, as an assistant to the general director of a company. In 2009, a photo taken by a fan appeared on the networks: Masha works as a consultant in a communications salon. They also say that the girl met a worthy man in the capital and is happy as a housewife.

June 26, 2017

After participating in the TV project, some heroes wanted to earn money easily and a lot

For 13 years in the television project “Dom-2” its participants live on everything ready, receive a salary for participating in the show (after passing the probationary period). Some participants, having appeared in a popular TV show, having learned the taste of “high life”, are in no hurry to work, looking for easy money. Despite the fact that the presenters Olga Buzova and Ksenia Borodina (pictured above) teach the children to live and love honestly, some are “blown away.” We have made a selection of former participants of “House-2” who have either already expunged their criminal record or are still serving a sentence.

Sergey Sichkar

Sergei Sichkar was a favorite of fans of the television project “Dom-2” - an athlete, a handsome man, “man of the year”. And then an exemplary guy from Belarus was sent to prison for three years: Sichkar was selling stolen cars. Seryozha was released early for exemplary behavior, although partially - he has been living in Minsk for five months: he continues to serve his sentence in an open correctional facility. During the day, Sergei works as a fitness instructor, but is required to spend the night in a special institution.

The guy was in the colony from March 27, 2016 to February 17, 2017. Sergei was supported by his family; the ex-girlfriend from the television project “Dom-2” also did not stand aside - she constantly called relatives, helped, and was in court when the verdict was announced. Sichkar promises that he will not let down the trust of the people who supported him - he plans to study music and earn extra money as a host of various events. His family is paying off the loans that Serezha’s mother took out to pay off the damage to the victims.

Sasha Skorodumova and Sergei Sichkar.
Sergei Sichkar said in an interview that the conditions in prison were quite acceptable: “There are three meals a day. If a person is adequate and understanding, then he will be fine everywhere... There are all sorts of people there too. There are good ones, from whom you can never say that they were imprisoned, but there are also not very good ones... You can live: there were rewards for good behavior, there is a store, transfers...” Having learned about Sergei Sichkar’s past in the colony, he was assigned to a “special” position - guy talked with newcomers, explaining the rules of behavior in prison.
