At the age of 11, she auditioned for participation in the children's television project Yeralash, which was broadcast on Channel One. Natasha could be seen in some episodes of the project.

In 1999, she made her debut as an actress for the first time in the feature film Princess War. Natasha got the main role of that same princess. However, before filming, the young girl cut her hair like a boy. As a result, she was pulled from the role and given a non-lead role. On the set, Natasha met the music producer and founder of the Malfa label Maxim Fadeev.

The beginning of the creative path of the singer Glucose

Steps to the big stage began with filming in the video, but not for their composition "Young Winds" of the "7B" group.

The peculiarity of the performer Glucose is a cartoonish voice.

Project Glucose was conceived Maxim Fadeev, who created such compositions as: “I hate”, “Baby”, “Bride”. The image of Glucose was created in a studio in Ufa called "Fly".

Then, for a short time, Glucose disappeared from the field of view of show business, as she got married. In honor of the marriage, Glucose released the single "Wedding", written by Fadeev.

After the return of Glucose to the Russian show business, a computer game was released, the heroes of which were members of the Gluk'Oza: Action group. And the following year, the second game Gluk'Oza: Toothy Farm was released. 

However, some time later (starting in 2007) after the termination of the contract with the Monolith Records record company, there was no anime theme. Since the rights to the songs, the image and pseudonym remained with the label. Then Natasha, together with Maxim Fadeev, at the end of 2007 created her own label, Glucose Production.

In 2008, all the hit parades of Russia "blew up" the new single "Dance, Russia!". The song is the hallmark of Glucose. At that time, everyone sang this song, even if they did not know who performed it.

Glucose had a very eventful year. She visited many different festivals, then came out with a joint work with Maxim Fadeev. Then came the release of a video clip for the song "Daughter". A small copy of Glucose appeared in it. Her daughter Lydia (1,5 years old) became her prototype. And the year ended with the release of the book Glucoza and the Prince of Vampires.

2009 was a year of transformation. Glucose changed everything from music to image. Glucose has become feminine and refined. The result of this transformation was the articles of various publishing houses, which included Glucose in the top of the most beautiful, stylish and brilliant show business stars of this year.

The following year, the single “This is such love” gave Glucose a new breath with its provocative lyrics and unusual sound. And also attracted considerable attention and interest to the artist.
