Interview with Ani Lorak for the magazine "Viva"
Carolina, very glad to see you! We are meeting for the first time since Sofia was born. The baby is already over a year old, you have blossomed and become even more beautiful. You look amazing! Thanks, I'm trying. Behind good physical shape comes work. As, indeed, with everything else - career, family life... - The Internet is full of headlines “Diet from Ani Lorak” Yes, there are no diets! I just gave up chl :), fatty meats (I try to eat chicken and fish) and, of course, no carbonated drinks. In addition, there is no need to eat in bowls; a small portion is enough. And every day sports. After I stopped breastfeeding, I took up breastfeeding in earnest. - How long did you feed? Three and a half months. The child's immunity was built up. And then the tours and training began. I did a lot of choreography - three hours a day. In the video “Hug Me” the result of my studies is visible. There are real workouts from my life. – Murat probably really likes the way you look now? (Laughs) You know, he always likes me. – Listen, you’ve been married for three years. Do you feel that being a married woman has changed something in you? Well, three years is just the official marriage. Murat and I have been together for seven years. Our princess was born, we finally moved into a new apartment, I have many achievements in my creativity. So I managed to conquer certain peaks on all fronts. As Barry White said: “Nunca, nunca Never te rindas!” (“never give up and move forward”). When I start to get lazy, I remember these words, pull myself together - and just move forward! I am glad that God gives me the strength to go my own way. – Seven years is a long time for a relationship between a man and a woman; they already know everything there is to know about each other. That young girl who was head over heels in love with her prince is no longer there. Or is this feeling still there? There is love in my life, and I feel it every day. This only happens when you meet your person. Then you simply love, without breaking down the whole gamut of feelings into individual notes: this is love, and this is love. It's like a rosebud: each petal contains a new charm. Over the years, even more warmth and affection appears. If earlier there was excitement and trepidation from every touch, anticipation of meetings and kisses, now there is happiness from the fact that a person is simply nearby. He can be in any mood: you, like all people, may have your problems, but you are together! And it's a wonderful feeling. But, I repeat, family is, of course, work and more work. – But the work is mutual. Of course, it takes two people to want it. Only a joint desire to create and develop can bear fruit. After all, relationships are water, and you need a constant flow, otherwise everything will turn into a swamp. It is necessary to surprise each other all the time, inspire and delight. And a woman generally has the responsibility to be a muse, an actress, a smile. The family emotionally rests with the woman, who simply must be flexible and wise. A modern woman simply has no other choice but to become wise, because there are too many tasks facing her. – Many modern women manage well without a family: they are self-sufficient, successful in business and social life, provide for themselves and are in no hurry to get married. Someone is lonely and independent, someone is raising a child... And a husband in this scheme is not always a necessary element. I don't believe that no one is needed. This is a phrase used to hide behind. Not needed because I didn’t find the one, didn’t fall in love, or, on the contrary, got burned in a previous relationship. Every person has an inherent need for a mate. A woman develops more successfully in a family; her potential can only be revealed in a family. – Rumors about you and Murat appear on the Internet every day. I understand that all this provides sites with guaranteed visits - your personal life is interesting to everyone! How do you and your husband react to such rumors? Honestly? We don't pay attention to them. Because envy is a bad feeling that drives people. Well, what can you do? This is the price for success. If I reacted quickly to everything that was said around me, if I had a weak psyche, I would not have been able to survive in this business for long. In general, I’ll say this: “The dogs bark, the caravan moves on.” Despite all the gossip and nasty things, I can smile and wish people good luck. I am a director and I create my own picture, and it’s up to me to decide what characters will be in it. But I don’t want to waste time on negativity. – Why do you think they want to scam you so persistently? First of all, we are a beautiful couple. Murat is an interesting man, and this arouses the sympathy of the opposite sex. The same can be said about me. Some fans still cannot come to terms with my marriage. I can say one thing: we love each other and trust each other, we value family values. Recently Murat invited me on a real date, which lasted until the morning. I felt like our second honeymoon had begun (smiles). I will not answer anything to those who say nasty things behind their backs; under no circumstances should you send negativity to people. I just want to wish everyone love. – Caroline, tell us about Sofia. What is she like? She's a miracle! The child is of an extraordinary nature: bright, smiling, friendly. She always wakes up with a smile. And very musical. When he sees my videos, he watches without taking his eyes off. Sonechka is the most important spectator, and the sweetest word after concerts is “mama”. When she hugs me, it seems to me that time stops, there is only the two of us. In general, I was born as a woman only after the birth of my child. She was a girl, then an adult girl, and the female chakras have only just opened. And although childbirth is a very difficult ordeal, all women must go through it. – Are you ready for a second child? The most interesting thing is that yes. At first, when the memories of the pain were still fresh, a second child was out of the question! And now I want us to have another child. After all, this is the fruit of love. – Tell me, what kind of father is Murat? After all, the relationship between dad and daughter, little princess, is something special... He's a crazy dad! He adores Sofia - kisses her, carries her in his arms, pampers her, buys beautiful clothes. It's a pleasure to watch him spend time with her. She looks like him like two peas in a pod. Murat can't wait for her to learn to talk. (Laughs) He dreamed that Sophia’s first word would be “dad.” He even promised the nanny: teach him to say “dad” - I’ll give you a bonus. – How did you choose a nanny? Have you contacted agencies? No, my girlfriends helped, word of mouth. A small casting was held, and immediately I had contact with one of the nannies, and the second one was later found. It's a lot of work to be with your child 24 hours. My daughter receives the kind of care worthy of a real princess. Both nannies have medical education. But not only education is needed - I always wanted Sonechka to feel maternal warmth and for the nannies to be mothers themselves. I remember myself before I gave birth. Of course, I loved children, but rather distantly. And when Sonechka appeared, I began to look at all the children as if they were my own. When I hear someone crying, I want to help with something, take them in my arms, and calm them down. Something is changing in the worldview, and nothing can be done about it. You don’t even understand what’s happening, as if you are the mother of all the children in the world (smiles). Therefore, it is important for me that the people who work with my child experience the same feelings. – Carolina, you have a busy concert schedule, you are constantly touring. Now it’s clear why Sofia is not a behind-the-scenes child. With such nannies, you can safely leave her at home. Apparently, you don’t plan to take it with you on trips at all? I would like her to be there all the time. But it will be very difficult for her to withstand my touring lifestyle and frantic rhythm. This is constant lack of sleep and stress. But I admit: I miss my daughter madly when she’s not around, we have a very strong invisible connection with her. - Caroline, it seems to me that you have an adviser who will teach and advise. This is Philip Kirkorov. Yes, this is a man-encyclopedia! I can contact him with any questions. Before I met Philip, I couldn’t believe that there could be friendship in show business. Usually relationships in this area are built on fake smiles. And Philip turned out to be a person who sincerely wants to support you. He has a great understanding of people and, apparently, felt me as a person. I, in turn, felt the care of my older brother, whom I missed so much. My brother died in Afghanistan when I was 9 years old, and only with the advent of Philip did the place in my heart fill. – What did he teach you over the years that you were together? He teaches me to fanatically love my profession and hard work. I thought I was a hard worker, but it turned out that I was still a long way from Kirkorov! We had a series of concerts in Bulgaria. Kirkorov's solo album contains 36 songs, each with a new stage costume and a change of scenery. And the day before he gives five interviews, does “light” shopping around the city (laughs). And after the concert he doesn’t sit like a squeezed lemon, but calmly communicates, smiles, not the least bit tired or irritated. – Philip has a daughter, you have a daughter. Do you communicate not on creative topics, but simply as parents of two little girls? I'm sure you have something to talk about. Of course we talk about everything! By the way, the first person who called me and congratulated me on the birth of Sophia was Philip. He was also one of the first to see my newborn daughter. Moreover, he baptized my daughter, so now we are relatives. Our girls are five months apart, and I, as an experienced mother (laughs), give him quite qualified advice. – When Kirkorov’s daughter Alla-Victoria was born, he made no secret of it. But the birth of a son is kept a strict secret. Why do you think this topic is taboo? There are many people who were happy for him, but even more who distorted everything. If something like this had happened in the West, no one would have thought of reproaching a man for resorting to the help of a surrogate mother. Our people have a different mentality. And also, there are a lot of evil people. – Is this the same reason why you and Murat don’t want to show Sofia? Yes, we want to protect our daughter from publicity. Murat himself is not happy with the fact that he has to be in the public eye. It’s a big test to be a public person, I passed it, and I developed an immunity. And how many injuries can be caused to a child! It's all very subtle. And some special words and intonations are needed so that the child correctly understands who his parents are and why he is not exactly like the others. Sometimes children hide in a cocoon, afraid of increased attention to them. (Sighs) Anyway, I still have to pass the exam.
