Idelia biography

And if you think about it, this is the life beginning ”on June 9, the American singer and composer Idelia Mars:“ Tatars are afraid of the words “sexy”. And if you think about it, this is the life beginning ”the singer, the composer of Idelia Mars is the daughter of the composer and musician Mars Makarov. The singer at one time flashed on the stage of the Tatar “alternative” music, and then left for America - and has been living there for 10 years.

The name of her father, Idelia took herself with a stage pseudonym. This year Idelia came to Kazan as a participant in the international festival of Muslim cinema. The singer and actress first tried herself as a director. The film was shot in the genre of mystical drama. He is about a girl forced to burst between two states: high and “earthly”, under the influence of father and mother.

This is the story of Idelia itself, and she also played the main role in the film. In general, I would say that the Americans only have a mentality. I moved to America because of the desire to improve my English. I wanted to get acquainted with their culture. To quickly study English, I tried to stay away from the Russians. In New York, for example, you walk according to Brighton Beach-everyone speaks Russian.

There are generally all Russian stores. And I think: these people speak Russian, go to Russian stores, why then they move to America?! One of the reasons why I stayed in America is probably a climate. I live in Miami - there is always summer there. Now I realized that the sun is very important for me. Probably everyone has it - when the sun, and the mood is good.

In general, I am a sun -loving person. Therefore, I consider myself very happy in that I live in Miami. And I love Kazan very much. I try to come every summer. In general, Kazan is one of my favorite cities. What was the most difficult? Because I grew up on films by American directors, admiring American stars. The biggest difference is that people have no installations there. They feel free.

There everyone can present themselves. They never condemn anyone. You are free! Here, after all, such things happened to me. When I started working with alternative music, how many complaints were! And they called my parents, said: "Raise your daughter, teach her to dress." In general, I'm like this! I do not like to dress like others. I want to feel free.

I want to write songs what I want. If you have your own ideas, you find your audience. In America, no one will tell you anything.

Now there are also changes here, ten years ago it was completely different. Or all of Russia? Because I lived only in Tatarstan. I did not live in Moscow. If you see now, there are many alternative projects here. How to say this ... The mentality of our people is approaching the world level, it may be so. How did the father react? He told you - “Daughter, easier there”?

There were different points. Dad was my support, listened to my songs, tried to help me. And my mother seriously did not perceive my work, probably so. She believed that I needed to make a career, pushed to this. I graduated from Kazan financial and economic. I showed these views of my parents to the world in my film. In the cinema, I deepened this thought, in my life it was not so dramatic, of course.

In the movie I made a drama, so I dramatized the parents of a little girl. In general, when I still lived in Kazan, it was different. But criticism was more from the side. My parents tried to understand me. At first he had a shock. But he accepted it. In general, dad has always told me since childhood that I am a creative person. And he tried to explain to his mother that I was a man of creativity.

Therefore, the version of the father won as if. Little I could cry even if I did not want to cry, to laugh even when it was not funny. Dad felt my acting abilities and said that I should become a film actress - I remember that. When I shot a movie and played the main role in it, I thought about my father - because he said. And I did not notice how I went along this path. Now I am walking in this direction that my dad spoke of.

In general, in those years - this is a year - a financial institution, as this can be said, was in fashion. Everyone sought to become an economist, lawyer, this is more like a “insured”, probably ... I worked a lot on television. Then she began the career of the singer. The musical career began in Kazan, I got discs with the Bars-Redords, Oscar-Redords studios.

For me, economic education was as a spare option, in case nothing happens here. Therefore, not only on the advice of my mother, I myself wanted to get this education. But, no matter what, student years are valuable not only by knowledge, but also by the people that I met. Or the events of that time. You use them. Now I am writing scripts. In search of images, I recall those who met me in the way.

Who I studied - it doesn’t matter, I think people do not always work by education, they can go to other areas. Because people need time to find themselves. Why did you decide to leave? There was probably such a dream. At the institute, I began to think more often that it would be nice to go to America.Some of my classmates live there. At first I thought to just go, and then the thought appeared that I had to try to stay.

It somehow happened. I had such a moment, I reached this: there were no documents. The money is over. The only thing I have is my car. Here I sold the car and bought there, in America. To move freely, I bought a car immediately after moving. I had such a period - I started sleeping in the car. I realized that I had come to some limit. Then I went to the ocean, sat down and cried plenty.

People came up, asked if everything was fine with me: “Maybe you need help? Then I thought: everything, we have to go to Russia.
