  • 28.06.2020
Polina Favorskaya is an Instagram star, singer, actress and participant in the popular reality shows “Vacations in Mexico”, “Love at First Sight”, former lead singer of the group “Silver”.

Childhood and adolescence

Polina was born in the late autumn of 1991 into an intelligent Volgograd family. Her real name is Nalivalkina; the Favorskaya girl took the pseudonym later when she became a member of the Serebro group. But first things first.


When the girl was four years old, her parents moved to the Moscow region and settled in the village of Dubrovitsy, Podolsk region.


From a young age, Polya was distinguished by a wide variety of talents: she drew well, sang, danced, and loved to organize impromptu home concerts. To develop her creative abilities, her parents enrolled their daughter in a choreographic school and a vocal studio, and at the same time in a drawing and applied arts club.


At the age of twelve, Polina became a soloist of the local dance ensemble “Rainbow” and as part of it toured half of Europe. At one of the concerts, she was noticed by representatives of the capital's musical theater "Amadeus" and invited to perform on the opera stage.

Way to success

Having received a certificate with only A's, Polina continued her education at the Higher School of Economics at the Faculty of Applied Political Science. While studying, she managed to take part in the MTV television shows “Mom, I Want to Be a Star” and “Love at First Sight.” In the latter, Polina and her partner won a romantic trip, but refused the trip and took the cash prize. In 2011, the ambitious girl became a finalist in the Miss HSE student beauty contest. Immediately after this, she fulfilled her old dream and flew to the United States, where she stayed for several months. The girl traveled, improved her knowledge of English and gained new impressions.


After returning to Moscow, Polina sent a questionnaire to MTV, where at that time they were recruiting participants for the second season of the show “Vacations in Mexico.” Despite the huge competition, the girl was approved, and a few months later she flew to Mexico. For the sake of this project, she had to temporarily abandon her studies and work in Moscow. But Polina never regretted her decision, because thanks to “Vacation” she became famous throughout the country. Their unusual couple with Val Nikolsky immediately attracted the attention of television viewers and became one of the brightest on the project.

Despite the constant presence of cameras and difficult relationships with the participants, Polina managed to last on the show for eight months. The girl admitted more than once that the project became a real school of life for her and turned an exemplary excellent student girl from an intelligent family into an iron lady who is now capable of standing up for herself in any difficult situation.

Polina Favorskaya found out that she is the new soloist of the group SEREBRO

Returning to Moscow, Polina and Val tried to organize their own creative duet, but broke up after a few months. Soon, another bright event occurred in the girl’s life, which became a new round in her career. She became the new soloist of the Serebro group instead of Lena Temnikova, who left the group, changed her last name to the sonorous pseudonym Favorskaya and plunged headlong into the vibrant life of show business.


During her three years in the team, Polina starred in five videos of the group, participated in the recording of the album “The Power of Three” and traveled halfway around the world on tour. Despite a successful career, in the summer of 2017 the singer unexpectedly announced her retirement. Polina wanted to devote her free time to spiritual practices - that’s why she left “Silver”.

You have no idea how difficult such a decision is. Music is my life. But now I feel that this is what needs to be done.

Fadeev did not interfere with her decision and quickly found a replacement for the girl in the person of 19-year-old Tatyana Morgunova. As a parting gift, the team recorded the song “In Space.”

Personal life of Polina Favorskaya

Polina’s romance with Val Nikolsky, which began on the “Vacations in Mexico” project, received an unexpected continuation outside the perimeter. Few believed in the sincerity of the participants’ feelings under the guns of the cameras, but the guys really tried to build strong relationships. Nikolsky even intended to become Polina’s producer, called her his wife and invested in her career.


At the same time, he put the girl under the most severe moral pressure, called her fat and untalented, and even periodically raised his hand. The final point in their relationship was Polina’s decision to become a member of the Serebro group.


A year later, the girl met a young entrepreneur from Perm, Nikita Volosnikov. The young man dotes on his beloved, fulfills all her whims and gives expensive gifts. In addition to romantic feelings, lovers are united by a passion for travel and an interest in spiritual practices.

Polina Nalivalkina, better known by her pseudonym Favorskaya, was born on November 21, 1991 in the city of Volgograd. In 1995, she and her family moved to live in Podolsk (Moscow region). At the age of 7, the future star showed her parents a craving for vocals and music. She really enjoyed organizing home concerts for her family, bringing joy to her loved ones.

In order to please their child, the parents decided to enroll their daughter in a vocal club. Subsequently Polina became a member of the dance group. For 2 years she performed as part of a folk choreographic ensemble called “Rainbow”, the guys toured all over Europe.

After graduating from high school, Polina became a student at the National Research University at the Faculty of Applied Political Science, taking the course “Advertising.” In 2010, she began working as a full-time employee of the center. She actively took part in such TV shows as “Love at First Sight”, “Mom, I Want to Be a Star” and the scandalous show “Vacation in Mexico”, where she appeared before the audience as a meek and calm girl eager to find her soul mate.

Music career

In 2014, the singer received an invitation to join the Serebro group. Already in June, the updated lineup toured the country, delighting fans with new songs. At the MUZ-TV awards in the same year he presented the song “You Are Not Enough.” Polina, together with the girls in the group, recorded the album “The Power of Three.” In 2016, it was presented to the public. Together with Favorskaya, videos were shot for the songs “Kiss”, “Let Me Go”, “Confused”, “Chocolate”, “Broken”.

True, Polina noted that until Max Fadeev finds a worthy replacement for her, the girl will not leave Serebro. In 2018, Polina will be replaced by Tatyana Morgunova.

Personal life

In 2012, Polina had a passionate affair with a participant in the “Vacations in Mexico” show, Val Nikolsky. The couple even had a wedding, albeit a joke one, on the project. Only after the show ended did their romance disappear into thin air.

The girl even stated that Val drove her to anorexia due to constant nervous breakdowns due to scandalous situations. Being 164 cm tall, Polina weighed 40 kg.

Max Fadeev, having taken her to Serebro, hired doctors who monitored Favorskaya’s new diet and physical activity. In response to this, Val began to seek solace for himself in alcoholic beverages.

Several times he organized passionate dances with drunk girls in Polina’s apartment. Only thanks to her work in the Serebro team did Polina manage to start a new phase in her life and break off relations with Val forever.

The stars of the reality show “Vacations in Mexico” Val Nikolsky and Polina Nalivalkina, who seemed like a truly happy couple under the guns of television cameras, as it turned out, have been harboring a grudge against each other for a long time. In recent interview SUPER 30-year-old flamboyant and funny guy Val said that a 22-year-old girl betrayed him, exchanging their love for fame in the group SEREBRO.

Polina Favorskaya herself decided to respond to the reproaches of her former lover and dot all the i's. According to the singer, she constantly had to endure insults and even beatings.

“I read with surprise and some shock an interview with my ex-boyfriend Val Nikolsky. I couldn’t imagine a more ridiculous lie. Firstly, it’s strange to me that I had to consult with him about my life, since I didn’t want to connect it with him,” Polina admitted to SUPER. — Initially, we had a “project” relationship, and only then I fell in love. But when we started living together, a nightmare began.

The girl told SUPER about what the current lead singer of the group SEREBRO, Polina Favorskaya, had to endure in her relationship with a participant in the “Vacations in Mexico” show.

What do you think turned the relationship with Val Nikolsky into a nightmare?

He told me every day that I was ugly, that I couldn’t sing, that I would never succeed. And that he is my only hope for survival. I’m scared to talk about this, but Val even raised his hand to me and allowed himself terrible insults. I can say more - he did not let me eat. Thus, he brought me almost to anorexia. Val constantly told me that I was fat, that androgyny was in fashion now. Sometimes it even seemed to me that he was molding me into a boy. When I came for the first interview at the production center office, all the employees gasped. With my height of 164 centimeters, weighing 40 kilograms is life-threatening. The company accepted me as family, began to take care of me, Maxim hired the best doctors who to this day help me improve my health.

Val thinks you traded your love for fame in the group...

The offer to become a soloist of SEREBRO for me was akin to an offer to fly into space. Because I could no longer live in this hell. Periodically, he came home drunk, and for me this was the most terrible experience. In this state, he raised his hand to me, humiliated me, brought girls home, threw parties. The next morning Val woke up, apologized and said that he loved me and couldn’t live without me. I made many attempts to get away from him. I was in the arms of a monster who was slowly drinking my blood. I didn't want to live at all.

Val told us that it was Maxim Fadeev who forced you to end your relationship, is this true?

In my life I saw Maxim Alexandrovich only three times - while recording songs in the studio. I never spoke to him on the phone. He cannot forbid me anything and does not forbid me. On the contrary, all employees of the company with him at the head are only positive. We have no control or prohibition on privacy. There are restrictions only for work.Regarding Val’s statement that we were walking around Moscow and I allegedly immediately received a call from the office demanding that I immediately not appear with him... Do you really believe in this nonsense? It’s hard to think of anything more stupid.

I would also like to comment on Val’s story about how he tried to meet me at the station, but was kicked out of there. This is how it really happened. N The driver met you at the station. When we got into the car, Val burst into the back seat of the car while we were driving. He began to say something frantically. Naturally, we were all scared and asked Val to immediately get out of the car. He began to threaten me and tell me that he would still make sure that I was kicked out of the group, that he would write and say nasty things about me, and publish photos of our personal life. I told Maxim Alexandrovich about this in the studio. He said that he still believed that my ex-boyfriend was a man and that he would never do that to a girl. But, as you can see, Maxim Alexandrovich was wrong.

Is it true that Val invested money in your creative development?

He needs to be more modest. Val also said that soon his group will be more popular than SEREBRO. Well, I’m looking forward to our meeting at one of the music awards. The line in the interview about how Maxim Alexandrovich will one day bow before Val made me laugh. It seems to me that this is something from the field of medicine. As far as I know, Maxim admires his favorite artist Leonardo Da Vinci or his favorite composer Beethoven. Perhaps Val will also soon become the new Beethoven... We'll wait and see. I am happy that now nothing connects me and this person. Now I am engaged in music and health, which this man ruined.

Val Nikolsky from “Vacation in Mexico” spoke about how he was forced to break up with his girlfriend

Polina Nalivalkina and Val Nikolsky were one of the strongest and brightest couples on television. Former participants in the reality show “Vacations in Mexico,” despite scandals and fights in front of cameras, left the project together. However, the happiness of the young people came to an end one day - Polina, who had always been in the shadow of the outrageous, merry fellow Val, easily exchanged the relationship for a career in the production center of Maxim Fadeev. The new member of the Serebro group not only left her lover, but also changed her surname Nalivalkina to a more sonorous one - Favorskaya. The ex-boyfriend of the new soloist of “Silver” Val Nikolsky spoke about the girl’s betrayal, attempts to win her back and his refusal to cooperate with Philip Kirkorov for the sake of love.

How did Polina end up in the Serebro group? Did this come as a surprise to you?

I knew absolutely nothing about this. She came home one day and I saw she had a case from the “Silver” group. Only after some time did I find out that she had signed a contract with Fadeev’s center. Polina was proposed to by producer Maxim Fadeev, she, without even thinking or telling me, agreed, signed a contract to work in the Serebro group and disappeared from my life. My attempts for several months to meet her were doomed; they wouldn’t let me near her. Maxim Fadeev forbids her to communicate and see me. She was told not to appear with me at social events. After signing the contract, we still lived together for some time, even when we were walking and the two of us were noticed, a call immediately rang out from the production center. At concerts, I tried several times to approach her and give her flowers, but the managers did not give them to her. I even tried to meet her at the station, but they pushed me out without allowing me to talk to her.

Aren't you offended that Polina did this to you?

I was happy for her. Working with such a producer is a great success. At the same time, it was a shame that she didn’t tell me. She was probably afraid. I invested money and time into it, and came up with a great concept. I never expected that such a career awaited her; I thought that she would sing in my project. She was simply blown away. I’m very unpleasant, I planned to make a superstar out of Polina. She could be independent and sing more than one line in a group, but perform songs solo. You know, Philip Kirkorov also told me that Polina is not what I need. This relationship will weigh you down and drag you down. You need to think about yourself. Unfortunately, I didn’t listen to him.

By the way, on the show “Vacations in Mexico” you chose a romantic relationship with Polina, rather than a professional collaboration with Philip Kirkorov. Do you regret it?

Yes, on the “Holidays in Mexico” project, Philip Kirkorov offered me a contract with him, but on the condition that I leave Polina and leave the TV show, and we begin to prepare for my solo career and plan tours. I refused, because love was above all else for me. Now I really regret it! If I had the opportunity now, I would be happy to resume working with Philip, because my views have changed exactly the opposite.

Have you tried to approach Philip again with a request for cooperation?

I consult with Philip about my projects, send him photos from performances and songs. By the way, he likes them. I am the kind of person that finds it difficult to ask people for something. Despite the fact that I often see Yana Rudkovskaya, Joseph Prigozhin and Valeria, it is difficult for me to talk to them about cooperation. I would like them to come to me with this question themselves.

How long do you think Polina will stay in the Silver group?

Nobody knows how long Polina will stay in the team. Everything in life is unpredictable. Maybe in a month my group will become more popular than Serebr and Max Fadeev will offer to record a duet with Polina. Of course, she made me feel unpleasant, but in doing so she gave me the strength to create and become the idol of billions. I believe that one day Max Fadeev will bow before me and say that I am handsome.

Polina Favorskaya, the lead singer of the famous Russian band Serebro, reported being beaten by her ex-boyfriend Val Nikolsky. Moreover, the girl admitted that he significantly ruined her health, since he often forbade her to eat and almost drove her to anorexia.

How Val Nikolsky humiliated Polina Nalivalkina, the soloist of “Serebro”

Val Nikolsky and Polina Favorskaya (the singer’s real name is Nalivalkina) together participated in one of the most scandalous reality shows called “Vacations in Mexico.” At that time, it seemed that the couple was “flying in the clouds” from crazy love. But a few weeks after the show ended, Val Nikolsky said in an interview that his soulmate betrayed him because she wanted fame and went to . Favorskaya decided not to remain silent and finally answered the man, accusing him of he forced her to starve and beat her more than once.

“Every day he told me how terrible, ugly I was, that I couldn’t sing and that I was unlikely to succeed in anything in this life. He also said that he was my only hope for survival. I'll say more - he made me starve and didn't let me eat. As a result, I became anorexic. He was constantly indignant that I was fat and argued that I needed to lose weight. I actually thought that he was trying to make a boy out of me. When I came for an interview at the Producer Center office, all the employees were horrified when they saw me. With a height of 164 centimeters, I weighed 40 kilograms, and this is no longer a joke.”

But the company took care of me. Maxim Fadeev hired professional doctors who continue to improve my health today,” Super.ru quoted the singer as saying. The singer added that she took the offer to sing in Max’s group very enthusiastically: “It felt like I was about to fly into space.”

Then the artist said a few more words about her ex-boyfriend: “He came home drunk and for me it was the most terrible experience. In this state, Val did not understand what he was doing: He humiliated me, beat me, often brought other girls home and had parties. In the morning Nikolsky woke up, realized that he had done wrong and began to say how good I was and that he could not live without me. I was literally in the arms of a monster who was sucking the blood out of me every day. By the end I didn’t want to live anymore.”

In conclusion, Polina noted: “But now I’m happy, because nothing binds us. I can finally take care of music and the health that this man ruined for me.”

Val Nikolsky believes that Polina’s words are a lie and a provocation

Myself Val Nikolsky was outraged by Polina Favorskaya's statements- “Silver” group. He considered these statements to be a lie and a provocation and asked his ex-girlfriend to stop slandering him.

The star of “Holidays in Mexico” is sure that Polina still loves him and therefore says nasty things: “I know for sure that her internal contradiction does not allow her to live normally. On the one hand, she wants to build a career, but the heart is not the brain - it cannot be ordered, so the ultimatum set by the producer forced Polina to make a difficult choice between fame and relationships. As it turned out, she chose fame, but her soul continues to hurt, so in order to somehow drown out this pain, she is trying to prove to herself and the public that our relationship was doomed to failure from the very beginning. And it seems to me that every day she is getting worse and worse.”

Val reported that I could never hit a woman, and even more so the one that she madly loves and dedicates songs to: “It’s very unpleasant for me to realize that Polina is deliberately lying, calling me an alcoholic, a tyrant and a psychopath. This is an utter lie and any person who knows me will refute this information!”

When asked why the couple had quarrels on the “Holidays in Mexico” show, Nikolsky answered: “I have always treated quarrels adequately. Polina often tried to scratch me, slap me, in other words, provoke me, but I always held on. I couldn’t hit such a fragile girl and I never will.”
