[00:00:30] it's possible that at [00:00:32] one moment he was [00:00:35] taken and erased from life, because [00:00:39] for so many years, he was [00:00:43] the child's voice of the country, that's what he was called, the Soviet Robertina [00:00:46] Loretti, for political reasons we really needed [00:00:50] such a boy, because how can the West have Robertina [00:00:54] Loretti, and we don't, here he is, [00:00:57] he was found, well, in fact... yes, he was very [00:01:00] offended, very annoyed, therefore [00:01:04] evenings with street [00:01:07] boys began, well, everything that follows from there, from [00:01:10] the main stage of the country, Seryozha Poromonov very quickly slid [00:01:14] down to the backstreets, got into bad company, the fall [00:01:18] was completed by alcohol, approximately there, well, maybe not immediately [00:01:21] at 14 years old, a year later, when [00:01:25] older street boys taught [00:01:27] him to smoke, taught him to drink first. beer, then [00:01:30] port wine, then stronger, with age, drinks [00:01:34] got stronger, cigarettes got stronger, then the same [00:01:37] restaurants, there they announced who it was, [00:01:41] what it was, again all the fans, come join us at [00:01:44] the table, come, let's drink, here's a [00:01:47] gift for you, a present from our table, well, [00:01:51] and so on. Paramonov did not give up music, sang in restaurants, with [00:01:55] gypsy ensembles and even sometimes went on tour as part of the [00:01:59] Ros-concert troupe. He really lacked basic musical [00:02:02] education. In childhood, he simply didn't have time for it, and Sergey [00:02:06] began to catch up on what he missed. He graduated [00:02:09] from evening music school three years early, and entered [00:02:12] the Ippolitov-Ivanov music college. The presence [00:02:16] of alcohol in his youth did not prevent him from entering [00:02:20] the college, because the doses were not [00:02:23] very large yet, and it wasn't every [00:02:26] day, it was, well, I don't know, maybe once [00:02:30] a month, the very fact that he was Seryozha [00:02:33] Paramonov, the soloist of the big children's choir, this [00:02:37] helped him enter the college, which [00:02:40] he, unfortunately, did not finish. [00:02:44] He didn't want [00:02:46] to study in the form of a process, that is, to [00:02:50] cram, learn, take exams, [00:02:54] at that moment he felt like an [00:02:57] established personality, well, he was a star after [00:03:00] all. Sorry, of national [00:03:03] scale, here he had to obey [00:03:07] general rules, obey teachers, perform [00:03:11] certain tasks, and he was a creative person, and he [00:03:15] preferred to be in [00:03:18] an ensemble, to sing in those same taverns, [00:03:22] he needed creativity and he needed freedom, and [00:03:25] college, no matter how you look at [00:03:29] it, is discipline. [00:04:30] the country will go to hell, it is friends who will help Paramonov [00:04:33] to stand strong, provide him with work in a music studio on the radio and even [00:04:37] introduce him to his future wife, it would seem his life would [00:04:40] improve, but that was just how it seemed, that's how hell [00:04:44] began, next, the last straw for [00:04:48] Sergey Paramonov, as [00:04:50] the former all-union star fell into [00:04:53] the abyss, who made the talented young [00:04:56] poetess Nika Turbina his concubine? [00:05:00] and pushed her to death, [00:05:03] we will tell you in a couple of minutes, [00:05:06] my sweet, my daughter is in the hospital, [00:05:09] intensive care for the plague, infection of your da... [00:06:12] the team's administrators offered to introduce her to [00:06:15] a great arranger, Sergey Paramonov. The first [00:06:19] meeting, well, I can't say that I was thrilled by [00:06:23] his appearance, because he looked somehow worn out, [00:06:26] clearly unkempt, crumpled, and not only [00:06:29] his clothes, but his face, well, later I found out that [00:06:33] yes, he really lives alone, his parents are at [00:06:36] the dacha, but by the time we got home, there [00:06:40] was a very long conversation... [00:06:56] somewhere and so on, he was [00:06:59] very smart, he had a very good way with words, she didn't immediately [00:07:02] recognize in him that very famous boy from the big children's [00:07:06] choir, [00:07:11] no at that moment... the person who [00:07:14] promised to introduce us, [00:07:17] he didn't say who it was, what and how, and then when [00:07:21] we met in the underpass, then he said, [00:07:24] this is that very Seryozha Paramonov, this is probably [00:07:27] shameful, yes, but at that moment I was also [00:07:30] famous and for me somehow Seryozha [00:07:34] Paramonov and I were on the same level, moreover, [00:07:37] I communicated with any stars [00:07:41] just as [00:07:44] equals, they perceived me as an equal [00:07:48] too. They developed a joint plan to conquer Russian [00:07:51] show business. Maria rents a room from Sergey, in exchange [00:07:55] for payment, she cleans, washes, cooks, in short, [00:07:58] she does the housework. Sergey at this time records [00:08:02] songs for her, which will soon make Masha a star. [00:08:05] The plan looked reliable, like a Swiss watch, but for some reason it [00:08:09] didn't work. Well, I wouldn't say he was directly [00:08:13] courting beautifully, he spoke very beautifully about how [00:08:16] I look, how smart I am, how [00:08:19] beautiful I am, how everything works out well for me, [00:08:23] he chose such words that it [00:08:27] was impossible, anyone would melt, but I [00:08:30] am generally impressionable, [00:08:33] she melted from Paramonov's attention and after six months [00:08:36] agreed to marry him, he [00:08:39] looked at me as a housewife. [00:08:46] blonde, but not stupid, well, and one day he said that I [00:08:49] should always be by his side, I also loved him, so [00:08:53] naturally I gave my consent, we filed [00:08:57] an application at the registry office, but we couldn't [00:09:00] have a lavish wedding, because my [00:09:03] father died, it was a period of mourning, we just went to the registry office, just [00:09:07] signed the papers, his parents, my [00:09:09] mother, in short, witnesses, that's [00:09:13] all. No restaurants, no celebrations, [00:09:17] and then, when 40 days had passed, [00:09:21] then Sergey said, now we can [00:09:24] get married, we'll celebrate this [00:09:27] to the fullest, well, it seemed to me that Sergey [00:09:31] was quite serious about the decision [00:09:35] to get married, inasmuch [00:09:38] as during the time we had [00:09:41] already been together, I had heard [00:09:44] about his addiction to [00:09:47] alcohol, I wanted to believe [00:09:50] that this appeal to [00:09:53] God, [00:09:55] the wedding, would restrain him from [00:09:59] this ruinous habit for as long as possible, [00:10:02] I thought so, a month after the wedding, fate [00:10:05] dealt the lovers their first blow, Paramonov [00:10:09] was diagnosed with tuberculosis, my merit is very great in [00:10:12] curing him, especially since [00:10:15] he categorically did not want to stay in [00:10:19] the dispensary, it was I who ran around to [00:10:22] doctors, arranged for him to be allowed to be treated [00:10:26] at home, that is, I controlled [00:10:29] the entire treatment process, after 2 [00:10:32] years they didn't [00:10:35] find any tuberculosis in him at all, as if it never existed, [00:10:38] although he had a very severe form, [00:10:42] extensive, disseminated [00:10:44] tuberculosis - this is when it's not only in the lungs, but also in [00:10:47] the blood, muscles, bones, throughout [00:10:51] the entire body, during his illness many turned away [00:10:54] from Sergey, Paramonov again felt rejected and [00:10:57] unwanted, like in childhood, when his star streak [00:11:01] ended. He got sick, all his friends left [00:11:05] him, they even, they were even afraid to call, [00:11:08] they thought it was transmitted through the phone. He [00:11:12] was offended and upset [00:11:15] that people he considered friends [00:11:19] distanced themselves from him, at that [00:11:22] moment, periodically... [00:11:26] Igor Matvienko would call, but not [00:11:29] every day, right, well, it's clear, he's a [00:11:33] busy person, but the main mass [00:11:36] completely distanced themselves, and he [00:11:39] didn't understand this, he was offended, annoyed, [00:11:43] like, well, at least they could have called, but [00:11:45] he had me, I said, Seryoga, don't worry, [00:11:48] it's fine, we'll cure you, everything will go [00:11:52] back to normal, everything will be as before, well, how... well, [00:11:55] how, what am I, like a leper, they shy away [00:11:59] from me, I say, well, this is a normal situation, because [00:12:02] the word tuberculosis, it's [00:12:05] so scary, people [00:12:08] are afraid, Sergey was not hired for work, and Maria [00:12:12] put all her strength into caring for her husband, their family [00:12:15] boat was rapidly heading into a financial abyss, [00:12:19] financially we were surviving at that moment quite [00:12:22] difficult, because he could no [00:12:26] longer work at full capacity there in the same [00:12:29] park there to the radio, only [00:12:32] if there were some arrangements, Igor just [00:12:36] called, he would throw in, need to make such [00:12:39] and such an arrangement, I kind of finished [00:12:43] my touring activity, but [00:12:45] periodically I was invited in [00:12:48] Moscow or in the Moscow region to some sanatorium, [00:12:52] rest home with a concert. [00:13:25] On June 8, 1995, [00:13:27] a son was born to them, the boy was named [00:13:30] Alexander. It was a happy moment, [00:13:33] since Sergey Vladimirovich Paramonov [00:13:37] was a humorist and a joker, he didn't [00:13:41] fail to note [00:13:44] that his son [00:13:47] was not completely Jewish. And I [00:13:50] asked why? He says: well, he was born at [00:13:53] 7:30. He couldn't wait [00:13:57] 10 minutes to be at 7:40, [00:14:00] well, we would laugh, well, [00:14:04] yes, he joked, joked, joked, joked, joked, [00:14:07] not for long, 10 days later my [00:14:11] mother left, he went to [00:14:14] see her off at the station, and [00:14:17] came back from there at night, [00:14:21] completely incoherent, that's how hell began. [00:14:24] 10 days after his son's birth, Paramonov [00:14:28] relapsed again, picked up a bottle. I even [00:14:32] tried to find out from him why [00:14:35] he decided to relapse at all. After giving birth, [00:14:38] I stayed in the hospital for another week, because [00:14:42] the delivery was difficult, my mother came, [00:14:45] helped around the house to prepare [00:14:49] for the baby's arrival. Then I was discharged, my mother [00:14:53] stayed for a few more days [00:14:56] and left, but she was still working at that [00:14:59] time, when I asked, [00:15:03] what prompted you, why? [00:15:07] besides the strange answer that, [00:15:10] perhaps, I was afraid of responsibility, I could [00:15:13] not get anything else out of him, well, it was generally difficult [00:15:17] to talk to a person who [00:15:20] only cared about where the half-liter was, where [00:15:24] the half-liter was, it had to [00:15:26] be everywhere. under the pillow, under the bed, under the sofa, in the nightstand, in [00:15:30] the barrel, in [00:15:31] the refrigerator, [00:15:34] in the cabinets, almost on every shelf. [00:16:07] he brought a doctor he knew who gave [00:16:10] IV drips, for 3 days they [00:16:14] dripped him, then he seemed to [00:16:18] recover, everything seemed normal, a day or two [00:16:21] later another relapse, again for a week, two, a [00:16:25] month, in the end I packed up my son and went to [00:16:28] my mother's, about two weeks later, he called, [00:16:32] that's it, I quit, [00:16:34] come back, [00:16:37] come on, my mother told me, a son must have [00:16:40] a father, a child, [00:16:44] you see, he realized, [00:16:47] he called, sober, [00:16:49] that's it, I have to believe him, I believed him, it [00:16:53] lasted a week, then again [00:16:56] for months, [00:16:59] nothing helped, and it only got [00:17:01] worse, what he said to my [00:17:05] pleas to stop, well... [00:17:40] he didn't listen to anyone at all, something happened [00:17:54] to his brain, the last [00:17:57] straw was a terrible scene that [00:18:00] Paramonov staged in a drunken stupor, well, and the last [00:18:03] straw was when, once again, there was no [00:18:07] half-liter at home, [00:18:10] he grabbed the child by the leg, went out onto the balcony and said, [00:18:14] if I don't, if you don't bring the bottle, I'll let go of [00:18:18] his hand, I called the neighbor, asked [00:18:21] her to come and sit and talk [00:18:25] to Paramonov, so that he could hear that Masha [00:18:28] was bringing it now, Masha went for vodka, Masha went for vodka, [00:18:32] just don't let go of his hand, at that [00:18:36] time they still sold strong drinks [00:18:40] at night at kiosks, well, I [00:18:43] brought it, I gave him the bottle, [00:18:47] went into the room, somehow [00:18:50] put Sasha to sleep, but made the decision that [00:18:54] it was dangerous to be with him for [00:18:57] my life, he would hardly kill [00:19:01] me, because he would still have [00:19:04] to contend with me, I am thin and I [00:19:08] cough, but as they say, it won't [00:19:11] be easy, but [00:19:14] there was a small, defenseless [00:19:17] child, I rented an apartment, I [00:19:20] left, the loss of his wife and little son did [00:19:24] not help bring Paramonov to his senses, [00:19:26] about a week later, 10 [00:19:29] days later, when I [00:19:33] took Sashenka to kindergarten, he [00:19:36] ambushed me near the kindergarten, already [00:19:40] drunk, already barely on [00:19:42] his feet, like I want to talk to you, come [00:19:45] back, I'll quit, how can [00:19:48] you quit, if you reek of alcohol now, you [00:19:51] don't just have beer in your hand, [00:19:54] well, you see, it's still not open, [00:19:58] well, anyway, word by word, I answered [00:20:01] him sharply, and he, not being a fool, took that bottle [00:20:05] and hit me on the head, [00:20:09] right across my face, [00:20:12] and half my face was blue, the other [00:20:15] half red, [00:20:19] it was funny, the janitor ran out, and [00:20:22] the children, the teacher watching all this from the [00:20:26] windows, I was horribly ashamed, I just wanted [00:20:29] to get home, I just wanted to get home, and he [00:20:32] kept holding me, we needed [00:20:35] to talk, I said, that's it, I don't want to see [00:20:38] you anymore, [00:20:41] that's how we [00:20:43] broke up, [00:20:48] then I left him [00:20:50] for good, after that close friends turned away [00:20:54] from Maria, considering her a traitor, almost everyone [00:20:58] turned away from me at that moment, I was a [00:21:01] traitor, nobody saw [00:21:04] what was happening between us, and they even tried to [00:21:08] accuse me of lying, [00:21:12] when I talked to people who had [00:21:16] not yet disowned me, they [00:21:18] said, yes, that he drinks, that he [00:21:22] periodically remembers that he has [00:21:24] a son, that he would like to see him, but all this is [00:21:28] in this alcoholic stupor, even to [00:21:31] see his son, he was not ready to part with [00:21:34] the bottle, on May 15, [00:21:37] 1998, the phone rang, [00:21:41] without even picking up the phone, Maria already [00:21:44] knew what news she would hear, the [00:21:48] godmother of our son called [00:22:20] me, "well, I had a feeling, [00:22:23] yes, his body was found on the bathroom floor, there [00:22:27] was no one else in the apartment, but the whole building knew that suspicious [00:22:31] characters often visited Paramonov, disturbing rumors immediately [00:22:34] spread across Moscow: Sergey's death was an accident, [00:22:37] suicide or [00:22:40] murder, [00:22:44] an accident or murder, what [00:22:48] happened to Sergey Paramonov?" In fact, and [00:22:51] also the tragedy of Nika Turbina, how the young [00:22:55] star of poetry became a concubine abroad, [00:22:58] who then drove her to a mental institution, watch [00:23:02] right after the commercial.

[00:25:02] Sergey Paramonov, Soviet Robertina Loretti, died [00:25:06] on May 15, 1998, [00:25:09] not having lived to be 37 years old. Shortly before [00:25:12] his death, he asked to be buried here, in the Krasnogorsk [00:25:16] cemetery, with the words, my friend lies there, but why? [00:25:50] with Borisov, they were already recording, I think, either [00:25:53] their second or third album, the first one was recorded [00:25:57] with me somehow, creatively, he was busy, [00:26:01] he had some money, to commit suicide, [00:26:04] what's the point, especially since he [00:26:08] knew that it was enough to stop drinking, [00:26:12] and he could get his family back, [00:26:15] the bottle ruined a good musician, all of Paramonov's [00:26:19] close ones adhere to exactly this version, well, [00:26:22] yes, let's say figuratively, [00:26:26] his heart, [00:26:28] whether he did it on purpose or accidentally, I think that... [00:26:33] he just drank too much and [00:26:35] if he really decided to take [00:26:39] a bath, well, who would take a hot [00:26:42] bath in that [00:26:45] state, his heart might not be able to take it, in fact, [00:26:48] delirium tremens, as they say, white delirium, [00:26:52] because he used to have [00:26:55] episodes of white delirium, when I was still living [00:26:58] with him, gypsies also came to him. [00:27:32] hurt, you have to hit the sore spot, cruel, but [00:27:35] effective, once she persuaded an adult Sergey to come to the anniversary [00:27:39] concert of the big children's choir, to forget all childhood grievances and sing [00:27:42] again, maybe not like before, but to sing, he reluctantly [00:27:46] agreed, after the performance he [00:27:50] glowed, [00:27:53] he was happy, he let go of that [00:27:56] negative moment, and even started [00:27:59] communicating, then... [00:28:03] he went to their rehearsals, somehow [00:28:06] they were preparing for the next concerts, [00:28:20] my opinion is that in the breakdown, let's [00:28:24] say, of his life's [00:28:27] core, [00:28:29] there were several, probably factors [00:28:32] involved - first - [00:28:35] it's what happened to him in [00:28:39] the choir, the voice breaking and [00:28:42] complete oblivion, betrayal by [00:28:46] adults, then the fact that [00:28:49] such great, huge [00:28:52] fame suddenly vanished, [00:28:55] it disappeared, what remained was fame in [00:28:58] the backstreets, and Paramonov, yes, he drinks. [00:29:32] himself, that he didn't reach that [00:29:35] high bar then, and it won't be possible to go [00:29:39] higher now, it untied his [00:29:41] hands, this [00:29:44] permissiveness, if I want, I work, if I [00:29:47] don't want, I don't work, if I want, I study, if I don't want, I don't study, [00:29:51] for children who experienced [00:29:54] early fame, this is [00:29:57] a terrible human test for [00:30:00] the psyche, because a child [00:30:03] who felt his individuality, his [00:30:06] uniqueness, his kind of [00:30:10] sophistication, his, his [00:30:13] difference from the general crowd [00:30:15] of children, as a rule, is very much [00:30:19] wounded by this vanity, he hurts himself, [00:30:22] few children who from their successful [00:30:26] childhood, we know the fates [00:30:30] of small artists who started acting in films [00:30:33] from infancy, not all became national artists, some [00:30:36] perished, Seryozha had this megalomania, as [00:30:40] it is commonly said, it was there in the background, he behaved [00:30:43] deliberately arrogantly, when [00:30:47] we found out that he [00:30:51] was not, in general, continuing his vocal career, because [00:30:54] he was passionate not about vocals, but [00:30:57] about alcohol, we all shrugged our shoulders [00:31:01] and said: we predicted this [00:31:05] outcome of events.
