Stars of the nineties - where are they now? Vlad Stashevsky - from love to sewage.

I'll try to answer the question first:
Where did the bandits come from in the nineties?

There were no bandits in the USSR. They, of course, appeared at some difficult moments in history, but next to the word bandit there were always the words "the highest measure of punishment - execution." Particularly dangerous gangs were simply eliminated, various minor people associated with the gang ended up in prison. The bandits, if they were in prison, then only until the trial, and then the execution. This is where the story of the gang and bandits ended.

When cooperatives were allowed, there were no bandits for quite a long time. Then free trade was allowed. Quiet again. And then, suddenly, messages poured in as if from a cornucopia: someone was killed there, robbed there, a store was taken out there. Everyone suddenly learned that there are foreign words: "racket", "racketeer". The maxim was voiced in the media that since there are now rich people, there must be bandits. They remembered the Russian proverb: "That's what the pike is for, so that the crucian does not doze off."

It seems to me that the criminals waited for some time, looked closely at how the state would behave. Nobody wanted to be a bandit, which means a potential dead man. But the understanding quickly came - do what you want, nothing will happen for it. It is difficult to frighten those who have gone through prison universities from their youth. From that moment began an explosive growth of crimes against business. Almost every day on TV they showed blown up cars, entrepreneurs killed on the threshold of their house.

The police simply could not cope with such a flow of crimes. If in Soviet times the police of the entire region threw all their available forces into solving one murder, now one operative had dozens of serious crimes in development. The position of the police at that time is quite accurately shown in the first episodes of the series "Streets of Broken Lights", in the first episodes of the series "Cop Wars". Then the authors of these series, based on the success of the first series, began to shoot outright fantasy, which has little to do with real life.

Where did the bandits of the nineties go?

And it’s not where they have gone, they’re just not visible now, they don’t catch the eye, but they are there. As Vladimir Vysotsky sang: “He will answer:“ Do not believe the rumor - there are no more of them there than in Moscow!

By the beginning of the 2000s, all the former property of the USSR was divided, everything settled down and calmed down. Former gangster authorities have become successful businessmen. Part of the criminal business was legalized by the state, it became just a business. Those who were called bandits in the nineties are now the same as all entrepreneurs. Former racketeers opened private security companies*. The gangsters, who lent money, and then imprudently put the entrepreneur who took the money from them on the counter, headed microfinance credit organizations, where they still issue loans at 1000% per annum. The gangsters, who beat out debts from debtors, headed collection agencies (that's why they have such methods - bandit ones). Well, the police are successfully fighting the outcasts who do not fit into the market.

* In the nineties, private security companies in Russia began to be divided (not officially of course) into two types: police and bandit ones. Police private security companies were opened by former employees of special services. Gangsters were opened, of course, not by the bandits themselves, but by people directly connected with them, who are often called "werewolves in uniform", well, "werewolves without shoulder straps."

Time is merciless. With its course, everything changes: something develops and becomes better, but something fades. This is especially true for people. When you're young, it seems like there's so much ahead of you that you can't even see the edge. And after a couple of decades, you begin to realize that time moves with frightening speed and, perhaps, most of your life is already behind you.

Time changes people. And it is all the more surprising to watch how our idols, whom we remember as young, beautiful, talented and energetic, after years appear before our eyes already haggard people.

And today we will talk about the idols of the beginning of the 21st century, about people who not only flashed on television, but seemed to us part of television itself. Let's find out what happened to them and why they disappeared from television screens.

Vitas (39 years old)

Latvian Vitaly Vladasovich Grachev gained wild popularity not only in the CIS, but also abroad. For example, in Shanghai, the singer's work was so highly appreciated that they even erected a monument to the artist. All thanks to the original manner of performing songs. Falsetto Vitas, many fans considered a real miracle.


Over time, Vitas decided to deviate a little from his usual style, which had a bad effect on his popularity. After a couple of household scandals at home, the singer focused on working abroad and, it seems, found a grateful audience.

Natalya Shturm (52 ​​years old)

At the age of 25, Natasha decided to participate in the music competition "Show Queen-91", where she made a splash. After that, the aspiring singer could choose any career path. At first she sang in the Mitzvah ensemble, then she began solo performances, and very successful ones. A photo shoot for Playboy magazine made her popular abroad.


But after disagreements arose and a break with producer Alexander Novikov, Natalia's affairs began to decline. She quickly lost her fans, and then completely ended her musical career. However, in 2006 she tried herself as a writer and published as many as 5 novels in a couple of years.

Andrey Gubin (44 years old)

A charming guy with a pleasant voice and simple songs just couldn't help but find his audience. The main hit "Girls as Stars" at one time sounded from every tape recorder. The popularity and demand of the artist went through the roof. However, health problems forced Andrei to take a break from creative activity.


Only in 2012, when Andrei Gubin appeared on the TV screen in the show “Let them talk” and told his story, did everyone find out the truth. A disorder of the nervous system and years of fighting for his own health turned an attractive and pleasant guy into an aggressive man who constantly stated that he was being followed and had been trying to kill him for several years.

Dana Borisova (42 years old)

The spectacular blonde instantly conquered the hearts of men and received letters from all over the country with love confessions. By the way, the first domestic presenter who decided to pose for Playboy magazine, which caused a real scandal in Russia.


The following years on television were not so successful. Only in 2017, when the star had long disappeared from TV screens, it became known about her drug addiction. Moreover, the mother of Dana Borisova announced the problem to the whole country on the air of the show “Let them talk”.


Thanks to the intervention of colleagues in the shop, Dana Borisova was sent for compulsory treatment to Sabay, a rehabilitation center in Thailand. After some time, the relatives of the star noted an improvement in her condition. To date, Dana Borisova has overcome addiction and leads an active life in social networks.

To be famous person not as easy as it seems from the outside. When huge popularity, demand and adoration suddenly fall on you, you begin to believe that this is forever. But if the ranks of the fans begin to thin and more and more criticism is heard against you, it's hard not to break under pressure.

Let's wish our today's heroes to find themselves and continue to enjoy life, and maybe even reanimate their careers. Pay attention to those that have changed beyond recognition over the years. What to do, because people have no power over time.

Arkady Ukupnik became a legend of the 90s and a model of kitsch. Who does not remember his immortal hits about the passport and about "Sim-Sim, surrender" (the latter, by the way, painfully resembles the song of the Army Of Lovers group and deserves a place in our rating of Russian plagiarisms)?

Alena Apina


Evgeny Osin, the author of the hits “The girl in the machine is crying” and “I don’t believe”, so beloved by courtyard romantics of the 90s, at the beginning of his career performed under the auspices of the Moscow Rock Laboratory, for some time he sang in the famous Bravo group, while he Valery Syutkin was not replaced, later he created the Avalon rock group and only in 1991 began his solo career. Deciding to play on the nostalgia of listeners for the 70s, he recorded several songs with a guitar with simple lyrics: love, girls and betrayals. Among the admirers of Yevgeny Osin's work was President Boris Yeltsin - at one of the singer's concerts, he went up on stage and enthusiastically began to rock to the song "Yalta".


However, as the new decade dawned, his career began to decline. He got married, and after the birth of his daughter, he began to drink. New creativity did not appear, there were no concerts. Osin was interrupted by performances at corporate parties, but in the end cash flow dried up. The wife left with her daughter, and the singer slipped into the black abyss of alcoholism. Now he is struggling with addiction to alcohol - with varying degrees of success.

The nineties will now forever remain a time of nostalgia for those who are now in their thirties. Songs that annoyed school years, now evoke the fondest memories of youth. Unfortunately, some artists are no longer alive, and they will not record new hits. The editorial office of find out.rf offers to remember the stars who passed away too early.
