Married couples are among the current residents of the Comedy Club in the photo. Who is Uncle Vitya? Character or real person? Uncle Vitya and the project “Laughter without Rules”


On February 18, TNT4 will premiere two new comedy shows. In “Selfie,” comedians travel around the world and joke about popular cities, and in the “Prozharka” project, they joke about popular stars... in their presence. There will only be one show left on TNT4, which one will be decided by the channel’s viewers on the VKontakte social network. Comedy Club resident and host of “Prozharka” Ilya Sobolev told us why “Prozharka” is a revolutionary format on Russian television and in what cases tough jokes can be useful.


Comedy Club, stand-up performances, YouTube channel, now “Prozharka”. How do you manage to get everything done without losing quality?

I try to devote a lot of time to humor, almost everything is free. And the rest is for the family. And that’s it, I don’t do anything else.

How much is this per day? In one form or another - rehearsals, writing jokes...

During the periods when preparations are underway for the Comedy Club, from about one o'clock in the afternoon to ten o'clock in the evening I practice the trio “Ivanov, Smirnov, Sobolev”. Then from eleven to two in the morning and a little in the morning - time for other projects.

It’s no wonder that with such a schedule you managed to try almost all comedy genres. What do you think about the show “Selfie”, your competitor in the “Battle for Air” on TNT4?

It's a cool show, but I wouldn't be on it. For me, the efficiency of this format is minimal. You just hang out, have fun, waste time on trips and walks, but in the end you don’t even have time to realize yourself as a comedian.

What format would you like to work in?

I haven't made any cool videos yet. I want to make some kind of viral music video for YouTube. Like, for example, Danila Poperechny. I understand that he is not a musician, but he does funny things.

Once you were already involved in music, you even recorded several tracks. So, are you planning to return to music?

Maybe purely for the sake of maintaining a YouTube channel. And that past experience... Well, yes, we tried to write songs, we even went on tour somewhere. One of the concerts was in Ukhta, and they performed in these places. It was a shame! I realized that I was not a musician at all and got out of there.

There is a stereotype that comedians are quite serious people in real life. Does this apply to you?

Yes, I’m like that, I don’t laugh around the clock. Not quite a sociopath, but in everyday life I am more in myself, I don’t get distracted by some unnecessary things.

Do you somehow amuse your daughters?

Trying! The eldest already understands something. Sometimes I force her to say something, and she is happy because it makes people laugh. When they see me on TV, they are not even surprised. Dad on the screen - it’s natural for them.

You have a technical education. Did you already know during your studies that you would go in a completely different direction?

I already knew when I started playing KVN at school. My education was so conditional that I did not have to go into the army. But at that moment I absolutely learned something, if not a subject, then life. There were different stories at that time, in that city (Ilya grew up in Krasnoyarsk). Maybe this is good, I can’t evaluate it yet.

Essentially, the show “Prozharka” consists of small stand-up performances. When your humorous career began, this genre was almost unknown in Russia. What has changed now and what are the prospects for the future?

I remember the very first attempts to do stand-up in Russia. Comedians who did not get into television projects began to develop in this genre. And then the “killers” (participants of the “Slaughter League” show) started - Pavel Vinogradov, Roman Klyachkin, Slava Komissarenko, Kostya Pushkin and me. This was 6 years ago, even Bely had not read stand-up yet. Then we looked at Western comedians, in some ways we even copied them, but we already understood that this was an endless story. Over the past five years, our stand-up comedy has developed very much. I don't even know if this is good or bad. The popularity of the genre accelerated with the help of TNT, but many comedians outside of television do not correspond to this popularity. That's why people sometimes get disappointed when they come and see bad stand-up. They don’t understand that this is the joke - it’s not funny to perform for a long time so that you get “muscles”.

Why do you think it took so long for stand-up to take root in Russia?

This is probably due to the Soviet regime. At that time, if you were alone, you were considered an upstart. For a very long time they were afraid to engage in independent creativity, and there were no platforms.

Do you and your comedy colleagues arrange “Roasting” sessions for each other?

I did "Roast" before we even started filming the show. We had a corporate party in the St. Petersburg office of the Comedy Club, and I came up with funny things about everyone who was there.

Was someone offended by your jokes?

Yes, three years ago there was such a case. One girl in the audience had big hips, and I made a pretty harsh joke about her fatness. She was very offended! But then she told me that after this joke she looked at herself from a different perspective, lost weight, found a boyfriend, and now everything is generally fine with her. For her, this stress turned out to be healing.

Is self-irony an innate or acquired skill?

Probably innate, but as adults we can convince ourselves that we are too beautiful and do not allow ourselves to be laughed at. In childhood, everyone is self-ironic! They looked at themselves in the mirror and could laugh at their big belly or other features.

Who do you personally want to see in “Prozharka”?

We thought about calling Timati. And they would be happy to “roast” Pasha Volya. The main thing is that none of them is offended. We joke not to offend, but to notice things that really happened to a person.

How does the Russian “Prozharka” differ from a similar Western format?

I think cultural upbringing. There was an attempt on Channel One to make such a show, but it turned out to be toothless. We tried not to step on the same rake, but we didn’t want to go into vulgarity. In the West, the school of comedy is, in principle, much stronger than ours. We come up with jokes based on our abilities and the Russian mentality. But our experience is so far 5 years, and they have 60, so their “feints” in humor are more inventive.

Why should TNT4 viewers choose “Prozharka” in the “Fight for Broadcast” project?

We promote revolutionary new humor on television. No one has ever joked like that before! We have an example - Pasha Volya about 10 years ago. He joked about the stars in such a way that he was called daring and brave. Now I have stopped doing this, but this does not mean that the genre has become obsolete, Pasha has simply outgrown it. And we took on “Roasting”! There are many similar formats on YouTube, live parties, but only we were allowed to joke so daringly at popular stars in their presence. And not somewhere in a gateway, but on a federal television channel with an audience of 90 million!

Natalya Soboleva is the wife of a popular comedian, Comedy Club resident Ilya Sobolev, a famous Instagram blogger who promotes a healthy lifestyle. The girl became popular thanks to the social network Instagram, where she posted her own photos before and after losing weight.

First love and pregnancy

Natalya was born on July 11, 1985 in St. Petersburg. The girl's maiden name is Pakhomov. Having received a matriculation certificate, she entered the institute, choosing the Faculty of Law. Then the future Instagram star worked for some time in the field of buying and selling real estate abroad.

For several years, Natalya dated a stand-up comedian, a member of the KVN team “Left Bank” - Ilya Sobolev. When the guy brought the bride to meet his parents, they gave the girl a real test. The popular comedian's mother wanted to make sure she was leaving her son in good hands. Pakhomova successfully passed the test drive, which captivated her future mother-in-law.

Soon, Ilya and Natalya officially legalized their relationship, becoming husband and wife. Within a few months, Soboleva found out that she was pregnant. From that moment on, the fragile girl’s usual life changed completely. Every day, the once slender Natalya’s appetite increased, she ate everything she saw in the refrigerator.

Soboleva consoled herself with stories that the child needed vitamins and nutrients, and if she did not eat, she would harm the child. As a result, the girl with 55 kg reached 88 kg. Due to excess weight, Natalya was admitted to the hospital for safekeeping and diagnosed with pathologies: preclampsia and gestosis. Fortunately, the girl was born healthy, but with a critically low weight.

During her entire pregnancy, Ilya Sobolev’s wife Natalya gained more than 30 kilograms. Returning home, the young mother expected that the weight would also begin to disappear rapidly, but everything turned out differently. At first, Soboleva could not find the right diet or exercise, so her breast milk could disappear.

When the reflection in the mirror began to really upset the girl, she began to fear that Ilya would leave the family. Then Natalya decided that it was time for her to act actively.

Drastic changes

Soboleva bought a gym membership and every morning, before Ilya left for work, she ran off to train. In addition, the girl purchased roller skates, which she rode on during walks with her daughter Sofia. Natalya added massage and Charcot's shower to her intense training. Ilya remained the main motivator, supporting his wife in her desire to return to her previous forms.

For a year and a half, Sobolev’s wife did strength training six times a week., which I independently selected by watching videos on YouTube. In the same way, she selected the optimal nutrition plan for herself. And only with the help of grueling training, thanks to enormous willpower, she managed to lose 30 kg.

Interesting notes:

Natalya shared her results on the social network Vk and Instagram, posting photos in “Before” and “After” format. In a short time, these pictures spread all over the Internet, gaining a huge number of likes and enthusiastic comments. Girls from all over Russia wrote to Natalya asking her to help them achieve such, without exaggeration, a “cosmic” result. Soboleva shared her personal experience and acquired knowledge with subscribers, trying to help as much as possible.

On September 22, 2015, the Sobolev family was replenished. A daughter, Eva, was born. Natalya took her second pregnancy more seriously; she did not have to deny herself her favorite treats. Now she knew how to replace high-calorie rolls and sweets.

An experienced mother has developed her own system, “Diary of Nutrition and Recovery after Childbirth,” which can be studied on her Instagram blog and other social networks. Now the girl can boast of an ideal figure: height 169 cm, waist 63 cm, hips 95 cm. It was quite difficult for the girl to achieve such parameters, but her husband Ilya Sobolev became a powerful motivator.

Natalya manages to combine household chores with work on her projects: the EMS studio “Fit Premium”, as well as the agency “Real Estate in Spain”. The creative couple spends their free time from work on vacation abroad. Soboleva often comes to Ilya’s filming at the Comedy Club to support her husband.

On her personal pages on social networks, the girl continues to share ways to eat properly., lays out the menu for fasting days. The Sobolevs also teach their children a healthy lifestyle and regular exercise. According to Natalya, active walks and training in the pool with the whole family are not only useful, but also fun.

Alena Soboleva is the ex-wife of a State Duma deputy from the A Just Russia faction, a member of the Land and Construction Committee and billionaire Ildar Samiev. There are a lot of rumors and unpleasant gossip about Ildar; he is accused of fraud, intrigue, and real estate fraud. The couple has a daughter, Eva, whom Samiev supports and sponsors after her divorce from Alena.

Ildar

The biography of Alena Soboleva became much more interesting when she married Ildar. According to Alena herself, she and her husband started everything together “from scratch.”

Nothing much is known about Soboleva’s parents, but she herself admits that she grew up in a fairly wealthy family, but she always wanted to earn more, she wanted to achieve everything herself. She admits that her father, when he found out that she was working, was at a loss as to why she needed it, after all. But her own income is what Alena has dreamed of all her life. And the husband always wanted everything himself. Ildar is originally from Nefteyugansk, but the couple did not want to live there and moved to Moscow.

After college, the Sobolevs’ affairs went uphill. The husband, having started earning money, entrusted the budget to Alena, especially when big money appeared.

Alena supported her husband in his career, and Ildar did not skimp on gifts. He was ready to give her the sun from the sky, and there was nothing that Alena and her daughter Eva would not have. What happened between the spouses? After all, he even presented his beloved a castle on Lake Geneva for her birthday, surprising the most sophisticated audience.

Present

In her marriage, Alena was accustomed to a luxurious life, and after acquiring the status of a socialite, she had something to lose in a divorce. Most of the media wrote about the high relationship between the spouses, about the husband’s luxurious gifts, which were on the verge of kitsch - yellow diamonds, the size of which was compared to the size of a walnut, a dress made from the petals of unique light green carnations (no one even believed at first that it was from natural flowers , and everything was checked by the guests by touch), a luxurious canary-colored Bentley car - the only one in the world, a private jet with unrivaled ostrich leather trim. For the average person, this is very difficult information to comprehend, especially if it is translated into cost terms.

At Alena’s birthday party, her daughter Eva performed a song in honor of her mother, drawing a storm of applause from eminent guests. And when Eva herself had a birthday, she received a concert from the prima donna herself as a gift - Alla Pugacheva sang at her party. In addition, Eva, at the age of 12, starred in a joint video with Dima Bilan, this is also a gift from her father. The daughter has everything she needs for life, and she doesn’t have to make her way anywhere on her own. Dad will buy everything while he is “on horseback”.

Passions

According to the socialite herself, the largest part of the expenses goes on outfits. Perhaps this is not just that - it is a kind of investment.

The most expensive item in the oligarch's wife's wardrobe is a handmade fur coat. Alena does not disclose its cost, apparently for the reason that it is simply indecent to name such amounts. Soboleva also has another weakness - expensive high-quality shoes, and her house contains a huge collection of exclusive shoes.

Friends

Her friends are delighted with her gifts, since Alena has excellent taste and is very knowledgeable about brands. A Fendi bag for Marina Yudashkina’s birthday, for example, cost more than 20,000 euros.

Alena Soboleva's social circle consists of representatives of high society who live in Paris, Monaco and London, as well as in other European capitals and in America. They often gather in Monte Carlo to celebrate certain events, for example, timed to coincide with the international Formula 1 Grand Prix rally.

Among her friends are Ulyana Tseytlina, Olga Kurbatova, Marianna Belchanskaya, Angelica Ronsoni. Its celebrations feature performances by the brightest representatives of high society and the most famous performers on the Côte d'Azur, for example the Gold Singer group or the world's most popular composer Edvin Marton, who plays the violin of the great Antonio Stradivari, made in 1698. Everything is accompanied by walks on luxury yachts and fireworks.

New husband

After her divorce from Samiev, Alena Soboleva moved to the residence of an important official, whose name is shrouded in secrecy. It is clear that a spectacular, intelligent lady who is not lacking in business acumen will always find a husband to match - worthy, rich and equally intelligent.

Ilya Sobolev is a popular Russian comedian, a resident of the Comedy Club, has his own show “Uncle Vitya”, where he performs in the image of a mischievous grandfather, and has recently become a Youtube blogger.


Childhood and youth

Ilya Sobolev, a famous Russian comedian, was born in the Siberian city of Krasnoyarsk, February 25, 1983. Already in his school years, he was attracted by the theater stage. And he did not miss a single opportunity, trying to participate in almost all school amateur performance shows. He was best at short humorous skits in the school KVN team.


The future artist began to seriously engage in creativity in 2003, when his team “First Coast” received first place in the KVN Premier League. 18 teams participated in the season, but in the end, with the highest score, “Vyshy Bereg” shared the gold with the Saransk team “Region-13”.

The next year, the young man enters the Major League, where comedians from the First Coast team were able to reach the 1/4 finals. In the same year, the Siberian team achieved gold medals at the Voting KiViN 2004 festival. In 2005, the artist, as part of a humorous creative association, received third place in the Russian Premier League, leaving behind only the Tomsk team from Maximum and the Friends team from Perm.


Sobolev Ilya on television

Thanks to his charisma, the young artist receives an invitation to participate in television comedy programs. Thus, TV viewers remembered the comedian in such projects as “ Slaughter League«, « Laughter without rules" And " comedy club". Soon the young man receives the status of permanent resident of a television program Comedy Club.

In the first season of the television project " Laughter without rules“Ilya, together with Roman Klyachkin, was able to surprise the judges and achieved second place. And in the ninth season, in which the finalists of previous years participated, he reached the gold prize.


Ilya Sobolev is also associated with the television character “ Uncle Vitya", which appeared for the first time in the ninth season of the television show " Laughter without rules". Despite the fact that the management of the TNT channel denied this fact, television viewers are sure that the young KVN player had a lot of fun on the television set. However, no one has seen Uncle Vitya without makeup and who actually plays the host of the “Money or Shame” program.


In the middle of winter 2010, Ilya Sobolev left the television project “ Slaughter League" and goes to work on a TV show called " Comedy Battle«.

But the young artist “feeds” not only on humor. In 2009, together with the famous St. Petersburg musician Andrian, he recorded two tracks called “Gansta” and “Don’t Think.” Together with the creative association " Ivanov, Smirnov, Sobolev"and the group "3NT" Ilya participates in the filming of a video clip for the song "Nuances".


Sobolev Ilya and his personal life

According to the artist, he is truly happy, as he is married to the best woman in the world, Natalya Pakhomova. The comedian's wife works in real estate and law. The couple has two daughters, Sofia and Eva. After giving birth, the girl developed her own program about women’s nutrition and recovery after childbirth, presenting it on her page in Instagram.


Sobolev Ilya now

At this point in time, the artist has permanent resident status of the project Comedy Club. He was repeatedly invited as a presenter to the MuzTV television channel.

In the spring of 2017, together with the creative association " Ivanov, Smirnov, Sobolev"visited the People's Republic of China, where the annual Comedy Club festival was held.

At the beginning of the summer of the same year, Moscow police accidentally stopped the artist. When checking the documents, it turned out that Ilya was using a fake driver’s license. Later, the comedian justified himself, saying that he did not know that he had been deprived of his driver’s license by a court decision for 3 years.


Ilya Sobolev YouTube

At the beginning of autumn 2017, Pavel decides to continue filming vlogs for his own YouTube channel. In short videos, he raises many topical issues, in particular, he talks about old age, fears, show business stars, and the LGBT community. In mid-autumn, the comedian, together with other participants in the Comedy Club show, goes on a tour of the US, Canada and Mexico.


At the beginning of 2018, the release of another humorous show, “Prozharka”, took place. As a participant, Ilya Sobolev will have to make fun of the invited guest. In the first episode I experienced a barrage of sharp jokes.
