Very rare photos of Alla Pugacheva, which show how the singer has changed over the years Bashny.Net

Alla Pugacheva managed to become a legend at a young age. And over the years, she did not lose her authority, remained in sight even after the end of her career as an artist. Today, the 74-year-old woman makes herself known from time to time. Her statements, actions and details of her personal life continue to interest the public.



Of course, around such a famous person there are many rumors and conjectures. Even real name of Alla Pugacheva is being questioned. So we're in the editorial office. "Site" We decided to tell readers little-known facts about this singer.

It is no secret that Alla Pugacheva was born on April 15, 1949 in Moscow. The parents named the girl in honor of the People's Artist of the USSR Alla Tarasova. And the parents of the future singer were Zinaida Arkhipovna Odegova and Boris Mikhailovich Pugachev.



Of course, on the Internet walk a variety of stories about allegedly other “real” surnames of the Diva. Some write that Boris Pugachev was the stepfather of Alla, but the biological father is considered the artist of the Moscow circus Joseph Abramovich Benditsky. He was a bright man: a musician, an acrobat, a juggler, a witty interlocutor. They say that in any company, he instantly became the soul of the company.

And with Zinaida Arkhipovna Benditsky really met in 1942, when he was already married. Benditsky’s nephew later said that his uncle and Odegova did have an affair, but a year later they broke up. A couple of years later, she met Boris Pugachev.



However, supporters of this version even credit Alla Pugacheva with 1943, not 1949 (which is listed in all official documents). It seems that they seriously believe that this year the Diva celebrated its 80th anniversary. Wonders and nothing! No wonder all biographers laugh at this inconclusive theory.

There are other versions, according to which Alla Borisovna Pugacheva is attributed not only other surnames, but also other names (for example, Faina Borukhovna Pevzner). But these theories look so ridiculous and invented on the go that they should not be seriously discussed. And what to discuss if the creators and supporters of these versions can not provide any solid evidence?



Biographers of the Diva note that the roots of the family of her father Boris Pugachev come from the village of Uzgorsk, Mogilev region (Belarus). There, for example, lived the great-grandmother of the singer Maria. This woman was known as a real healer, she treated fellow villagers with the help of hands and herbs. But his paternal grandfather did not stay in the province, moved to Moscow, where his son Boris was already born.

By the way, Boris Mikhailovich and Zinaida Arkhipovna met at the front. The man served as a scout. Once she was even ambushed, where during a shootout, an enemy bullet knocked out his right eye. This did not prevent him from having an affair with the beautiful Zinaida.



The woman, having finished the course of sandruzhinnitsa, also went to defend her homeland. She served in the anti-aircraft battery, but due to the presence of a beautiful voice, she was transferred to the concert brigade. The acquaintance of Boris and Zinaida soon developed into a strong marriage. It is also interesting that during their married life, they celebrated their date each year, not their wedding anniversary.

As for the magical voice that Alla Pugacheva got, not only Zinaida Arkhipovna, but also her mother sang beautifully. Close families say that the Diva voice is similar to her grandmother (below that in the photo with her husband), who could not imagine her life without music. It turns out that the passion passed from grandmother to granddaughter, who eventually became the personification of an entire era in the music of his country.
