But what do we know about the person we see on television almost every day? What secrets does the biography of Irina Bilyk hide? And how interesting a person does she remain outside the stage?

Today we decided to tell all the most interesting things from the life of this extraordinary artist.

Early years, childhood and family of Irina Bilyk

Irina Nikolaevna Bilyk was born on April 6, 1970 in the city of Kyiv. Her parents were ordinary Soviet workers and had nothing to do with music and art in general. So, in particular, the father and mother of our today’s heroine worked as engineers at one of the Kyiv aircraft factories. The brother of the future star, Sergei Bilyk, who now works as a lawyer in one of the capital’s firms, was not distinguished by any special talents.

As for Irina directly, unlike all her relatives, she began her path to the world of art very early. Already at the age of five, the girl began dancing, and a year later she began to sing, performing with the children’s ensemble “Solnyshko”.

Subsequently, the artist systematically developed her talent. For some time, secretly from her parents, she visited a music studio. She learned her homework in the form of simple musical parts while practicing at a neighbor's piano. Therefore, such diligence very soon began to bear fruit. At the age of ten, Ira became one of the best students in her group. She wrote songs, played the piano well, and also studied vocals.

After graduating from music school, our today's heroine took up teaching. For several years she worked with children's groups and such an activity brought her great pleasure. However, all this also had a downside. For the sake of “bird in hand,” I had to abandon “pie in the sky.” At some point, the young artist stopped even dreaming about the big stage. Time passed, and along with it, hopes for all-Ukrainian fame and a bright career as a pop singer melted away.

However, in 1989, fate still gave Irina Bilyk another chance. At the age of 19, the singer took part in the Chervona Ruta music festival, which was her first in many years. Thanks to him, the artist again remembered what it was like to sing on stage.

Together with him, as well as some other artists, the singer took part in the creation of the group “Tsey Doshch nadovgo”, which became quite popular at the turn of the eighties and nineties.

In 1992, already as a solo performer, our today’s heroine represented Ukraine at the Vitebsk festival “Slavic Bazaar”. In the same year, she recorded her first song, “Lishe Yours,” for which a video was soon shot.

A few months later, the artist achieved victory at the music competition “Song Vernissage. New Ukrainian wave." A year later, Irina Bilyk also appeared before the audience as part of the “Maria” song competition, held in the city of Truskavets.

Such successes made the artist popular in her homeland, Ukraine and in some other CIS countries. Since the nineties, Irina has become a real star of the Ukrainian stage. She has been in this status for many years in a row.

Star Trek by Irina Bilyk: from the first songs to great fame

In 1995, the artist went on an all-Ukrainian tour with the “Nova” program, the finale of which was a large solo concert in the Kiev palace “Ukraine”. In this context, it is worth noting that a tour of this magnitude was the first in independent Ukraine. After returning home, the artist received prizes in the categories “Song of the Year” and “Singer of the Year”, and was also awarded the title of Honored Artist of Ukraine. In addition, Irina Bilyk took part in several major song festivals as a guest star.

In 1995, 96 and 97, our today's heroine released three more solo albums, each of which became famous and popular in Ukraine. During this period, she literally collected awards one after another. And therefore, very soon she became one of the record holders for the total number of prizes and nominations.

In addition, in the second half of the nineties, the artist worked as a model in the advertising companies Idea Studio, Peugeot 206 and Dirol Wild Berry.

After this, the artist released four more studio albums, as well as two official collections.

Over the years, the artist took part in such projects as “People’s Star”, “Dancing with the Stars”, “Zirka + Zirka”, and was also the actual curator of several seasons of the Ukrainian “Zirok Factory”.

At the time of writing this article, Irina Bilyk was on a large-scale tour, during which the audience was presented with the “Best Ukrainian Hits” program.

Personal life of Irina Bilyk

The artist’s first common-law husband was Yuri Nikitin, the singer’s future manager, now a famous Ukrainian producer and showman. The relationship with him lasted about seven years.

In 1998, after breaking up with her former lover, Irina Bilyk began dating fashion model Andrei Overchuk. The result of their love union was their common son, Gleb (born in 1999).

Bilyk Irina Nikolaevna (b. 1970) is a talented and popular Ukrainian singer, composer, has a huge army of fans not only in her homeland, but also far beyond its borders. Artistic and beautiful, she wrote and performed a large number of hits, loves to surprise the public with frequent changes of image, has great influence in the domestic show business, for which she was nicknamed the “Ukrainian Madonna.” In 2008, Irina was awarded the title of People's Artist of Ukraine.

Childhood

Ira was born on April 6, 1970 in the capital of the Ukrainian SSR - Kyiv. Her parents, Nikolai Semenovich and Anna Yakovlevna, are sure that their daughter is a gift from God. After all, when my mother was pregnant with Irina, she became infected and fell ill with jaundice. Fearing serious consequences for the child, doctors insisted on termination of pregnancy and artificial birth. But the young woman did not want to listen to anyone, insisted on her own, and the girl was born absolutely healthy.

Irina’s mom and dad were far from art; they both worked at an aircraft factory in engineering positions. Although Nikolai Semenovich was partial to music in his soul, he mastered playing the button accordion as a child, and even led an ensemble in the army. It was he who taught his daughter notes from an early age, but the parents never even thought about Ira becoming a professional singer in the future. It’s just that during family holidays, when guests came, the father put his daughter on a stool and announced: “People’s Artist Irina Bilyk is performing.”

From the age of four, the girl was already singing folk songs. And when she was five years old, mom and dad sent Ira to a dance school. The teachers immediately noted how well and gracefully the little girl moved. But less than a year later, the girl showed her vocal abilities and became a soloist in the children's ensemble “Solnyshko”.

School years

Since starting school, Irina’s hobbies have increased. Instead of hanging out with her peers in the yard, the girl went to concerts with the Solnyshko ensemble, wrote poetry, and attended a drama club and ballet school. One day, when my mother came to pick Ira up from class, she saw that her daughter was not dancing with the other girls, but was standing next to the accompanist. The teacher called Anna Yakovlevna and told her: “Your girl likes music more than dancing. She never leaves my side. Try buying your daughter a piano.”

But the Bilyk family then lived in a communal apartment, in a 12-meter room; the neighbors were two old women who had gone through the war. It was not possible to come to an agreement with them; the grandmothers wanted peace of mind in their old age. Ira and her mother asked to go to the art house, there was a piano there, and the head of the clubs allowed the girl to come several times a week to practice on the official instrument.

Fortunately, in 1979, Ira had a younger brother, Seryozha, and his parents were given an apartment in Obolon. The first thing they brought into their new home was neither furniture, nor a stove, nor a washing machine, but an old piano “Ukraine”.

Attending classes in a music studio, Ira already became the best student in her group at the age of ten. She learned to play the piano well, also studied vocals and tried to compose music. By the time she graduated from school, she had already written several of her own songs.

Youth

After graduating from school, Ira went on the radio to offer her compositions. She returned home in tears and decided that since no one needed her work here, she would go to Moscow. In the capital, she went to different universities, and one admissions committee told her: “You are a smart and talented girl, but don’t waste time on Moscow, study here in Kyiv.” Only, having arrived home, she was already late for all the entrance exams.

But Bilyk is not one of those who despair. For a whole year she did not waste time; she studied at the Kiev Gliere Music College as a free listener with the Honored Artist of the Ukrainian SSR Lina Vladimirovna Prokhorova. Along with this, Ira worked part-time as a teacher, teaching vocals to children at a music school. She was so fascinated by activities with children that at some point she forgot about her dreams and career as a singer.

The following year, 1988, Irina passed the entrance exams with “excellence” and entered the Gliere School to major in pop vocals; for a girl from an ordinary family in those days this was something supernatural. At the time of graduation, Bilyk was already a famous singer in Ukraine.

The beginning of a musical career

The first step on the path to the heights of the musical Olympus for Irina was the Ukrainian music festival “Chervona Ruta” in 1989.

A year later, she went to the next festival, “Spring Hopes,” where her fateful meeting took place with her future husband and producer Yuri Nikitin. With two more musicians, Yuri and Irina created the group “Tsei doshch nadovgo”.

In 1990, the singer’s first studio album, “Kuvala Zozulya,” was released.

In 1992, at the international festival “Song Vernissage. New Ukrainian wave” Bilyk became a laureate and shot the first video for her song “Lishe is yours”.

1993 was a particularly busy year in the life of the young singer. Ira graduated from music school, took part in two festivals with the song “Nova” (“Slavic Bazaar” and “Maria”) and even tried on the role of a television presenter on the UT-1 channel in the show “New Year’s Night”.

In 1994, the singer’s new album, “I Will Rozkaz,” was released.

The next year, 1996, was no less significant for her. The song “So Simple” was recognized as the best in the country this year, and Irina was awarded the title of Honored Artist of Ukraine.

In 1997, in her second all-Ukrainian concert tour with the program “So Simple,” Ira traveled to 38 major cities and received two awards in the categories “Album of the Year” and “Singer of the Year.”

Today, any of these and other compositions can be listened to and downloaded in full online. The singer's videos are also available for viewing. If you haven’t heard any of the artist’s albums yet, hurry up to find out more about the star through the depth of the words and music of the songs.

About love and creativity

The artist's personal life is as busy as her professional career. Men did not neglect the bright blonde - the owner of not only a magical voice, but also model data. One of the memorable unions of 2007 was the couple Irina Bilyk and Dmitry Dikusar. Despite the fifteen-year age difference, the lovers got married. Dikusar was the singer’s dancing partner in the “Dancing with the Stars” project and became her chosen one in life. To a greater extent, Dmitry’s newfound popularity is associated with his status - Irina Bilyk’s husband.

Bilyk turned her deep feelings for her young husband into the song “We Are Not There,” for which a video was later created, where she and Dikusar are in the frame. This is a gentle and sensual video with fragments of the film “Indie”. Later, the composition appeared in Irina’s album “Encore”. Filming a video and working together did not save the star marriage. Unfortunately, the artist and her choreographer husband were married for all 3 years, after which the couple Irina Bilyk and Dmitry Dikusar broke up.
