Alisa Mon is a Russian singer. The artist has twice been at the very top of the musical Olympus, and twice "descended to the very bottom", starting all over again.
The musical compositions "Plantain Grass" and "Diamond" are the visiting cards of the singer. Alice lit her star back in the 1990s.
Mon still sings on stage, but today there is not enough interest in her work. And only fans from the 1990s attend the singer's concerts and listen to popular compositions of her repertoire.
Childhood and youth of Svetlana Bezukh
Alisa Mon is the creative pseudonym of Svetlana Vladimirovna Bezuh. The future star was born on August 15, 1964 in the city of Slyudyanka, Irkutsk region.
Svetlana showed interest in music back in her school years, but she never received a musical education.
In addition to her passion for music, the girl was fond of sports, and even entered the school basketball team. Svetlana was an activist. She has repeatedly defended the honor of the school at various events.
As a teenager, Svetlana began writing songs. She even learned to play the piano on her own, having gathered a musical group.
There were only girls in her group. Young soloists mastered the repertoire of Alla Borisovna Pugacheva and Karel Gott.
After receiving a certificate, the girl entered the Novosibirsk Musical College in the department of pop singing. Studying was given to Svetlana very easily, and most importantly, she received great pleasure from it.
To hone her vocal abilities, Svetlana worked as a singer in a restaurant. Already in her second year, the girl was invited to the jazz ensemble of the school, led by A. A. Sultanov (vocal teacher).
Unfortunately, the girl never managed to get a diploma. Svetlana left the walls of the educational institution ahead of schedule. It's all to blame - an invitation to become part of the musical group "Labyrinth" (at the Novosibirsk Philharmonic).
Svetlana admitted that the decision to leave the educational institution was hard for her. She believes that education should still exist.
But then she had a chance that she could not refuse. With participation in the "Labyrinth" team, the stellar path of the Russian singer began.
The creative path and music of Alice Mon
The head of the musical group "Labyrinth" was producer Sergei Muravyov. Sergey turned out to be a very strict leader, he demanded full dedication from Svetlana. The girl had almost no free time.
In 1987, Svetlana made her debut on television. Then the singer became a member of the popular program "Morning Star". At the show, the girl performed the song "I Promise", which was included in the debut album.
In 1988, the singer presented her first album, Take My Heart. Songs such as: “Farewell”, “Horizon”, “Hot rain of love” were very popular.
The composition "Plantain Grass" became a hit, for which in 1988 at the festival "Song of the Year" Svetlana received the audience award.
Such long-awaited popularity fell upon Svetlana. She found herself in the center of popular love and recognition. Then the team signed a lucrative contract with the Melodiya recording studio.
The history of the pseudonym of the singer
Soon Sergey and Svetlana became frequent guests of radio stations and TV shows. During one of the interviews, Svetlana called herself Alice Mon.
Soon this name served as a creative pseudonym for the girl, but that's not all. The girl liked the pseudonym so much that she even decided to change her passport.
Members of the "Labyrinth" group went on a tour of the Soviet Union. In addition to performances, the musicians released new songs: "Hello and Goodbye", "Caged Bird", "Long Road" for Alice Mon's second solo album "Warm Me".
In the early 1990s, the singer entered the international level. In 1991, Alice Mon traveled to Europe to compete in the Midnight Sun competition held in Finland. At the competition, the singer was awarded a diploma.
To take part in the music competition, Alice had to learn Finnish and English. After a small victory, the musicians went on a tour of the United States of America.
In 1992, Alisa Mon returned to her homeland, where she took part in the next music competition "Step to Parnassus". The performance went well.
However, after that, Alice Mon announced that she intended to return to her native Slyudyanka. But the return to her hometown turned into a move to Angarsk, where she got a job as the head of the local Energetik recreation center.
Alice Mon did not stop creating and writing music. At home, the performer wrote the song "Diamond", which later became a hit. Once this track was heard by a wealthy fan who suggested that the girl record a cassette.
The singer had new material in her hands, with which she soon ended up in Moscow on a happy occasion. Artists came to the Energetik Palace of Culture, where, in fact, Svetlana worked, with their performance. Among the singers were familiar people.
Alice Mon handed the cassettes with the loud title "Diamond" to the sound engineer, who listened to the material, and he liked it. He took the cassette with him to the capital, promising to show the work to "the right people."
A little more than a week passed, in Svetlana's apartment the phone rang. The singer was offered cooperation, as well as recording a video clip and a full album.
In 1995, Alice Mon again appeared in the very heart of the Russian Federation - Moscow. A year later, the singer recorded her hit Almaz at the Soyuz studio. In 1997, a video clip was also released for the track. Then the singer presented the album of the same name.
In the video clip "Diamond" Alice Mon appeared before the audience in a chic white dress with an open back. On her head was a beautiful hat.
Svetlana is the owner of a chic, sophisticated figure, and until now she manages to keep herself in almost perfect shape.
Following the album "Almaz", the singer presented three collections.
We are talking about the records: “A Day Together” (“Blue Airship”, “Strawberry Kiss”, “Snowflake”), “Dive With Me” (“Not True”, “Trouble Doesn't Matter”, “That's All”) and “Dance with me” (“Orchid”, “You never know”, “Become mine”). The singer released video clips for some songs.
It is noteworthy that the number of concerts with the advent of new albums has not increased. The fact is that Alice Mon preferred to perform at private parties and corporate parties. She traveled less often around the cities with her concerts.
In 2005, the singer released another collection. The album was called "My Favorite Songs". In addition to musical novelties, the collection also included old hits of the singer.
Singer education
Svetlana did not forget that there is no education behind her. And therefore, in the second half of the 2000s, the performer became a student at the Institute of Culture and chose the specialty "Director-massive".
The singer admitted that she was ripe for a diploma. Previously, she already had attempts to graduate from a pedagogical university, and even a medical one, but they were all “failed”. Svetlana left them because music was a priority for her.
In 2017, fans of Alice Mon's work waited for a new song. The performer presented the musical composition "Pink Glasses". Alice presented the song at Fashion Week in Moscow. The track made a favorable impression on the fans.
Alice Mon's personal life
Svetlana got married at the dawn of her musical career. The singer's husband was the guitarist of the band "Labyrinth". Due to youth, this marriage broke up.
The second husband of Svetlana was the leader Sergei Muravyov. Interestingly, the difference between the newlyweds was 20 years. But Svetlana herself says that she did not feel it. It was Sergei who wrote the legendary song "Plantain Grass" for the singer.
In 1989, Svetlana gave birth to a son from her husband. Despite the fact that the couple tried not to "take out the garbage from the house", it was simply impossible not to notice the changes.
Svetlana admitted that her husband is behaving arbitrarily. The last straw was the statement that either the singer lives with a family and leaves the stage, or she will never see her son again.
In the 1990s, Svetlana had to leave Moscow. She hid from her husband. Later, in her interviews, the singer admitted that Sergei beat her, and it was not she who suffered the most, but her son.
After the divorce, Alice did not try to tie the knot in her life. According to the singer, she simply did not see a suitable candidate.
However, it was not without great love - a certain Mikhail became her chosen one, who turned out to be 16 years younger than the singer. Soon the couple broke up at the initiative of Svetlana.
By the way, the singer's son (Sergey) also followed in the footsteps of his star parents. He writes music and often performs in nightclubs. In addition, he maintains relationships with relatives on his father's side.
2015 was a year of losses and personal tragedies for Svetlana. The fact is that this year she lost two close people at once - her father and grandmother. The woman was very upset by the loss, and even for a while she stopped performing on stage.
Svetlana discovered another talent in herself - she sews clothes for loved ones. But the real passion of the singer is the creation of author's pillows, "dumok", as well as curtains and other home textile items.
Alice Mon now
In 2017, Alice Mon took part in the popular program 10 Years Younger. The performer decided to radically change her image - throw out all the rubbish from the closet that does not make her attractive, and also try fresh makeup on herself.
During the filming of the program, Alice Mon reincarnated simply as a luxurious woman. The performer had several facelifts, as well as an enlarged bust.
Svetlana visited the office of a beautician and dentist, and the image of the singer was completed by an experienced stylist. At the end of the project, Alice Mon presented the musical composition "Pink Glasses".
A year later, Alice Mon could be seen in the author's program of Andrey Malakhov "Hi, Andrey!". On the program, the singer performed her calling card - the song "Diamond".
In the summer of 2018, the Russian singer presented a video clip for the song Virus L'amour (with the participation of ANAR).
Now Alisa Mon appears on the sites of Russia both with solo projects and in team performances. She recently took part in the "Hits of the XNUMXth Century" gala concert, which was held at the Kremlin Palace.
In 2019, the presentation of the album "Pink Glasses" took place. In 2020, Alice Mon is actively touring, delighting fans with a live performance of her favorite songs.
