Ilona Aleksandrovna, as a successor to the family dynasty, could make a dizzying career no worse than her famous mother. But she preferred television and household chores. What was remembered by fans of Ilona Bronevitskaya? Biography and a number of interesting facts from the life of a star will be considered further.
Born in love
Ilona was born in 1961 in Leningrad. From a young age, it was clear to everyone around that in such a creative tandem, the daughter could not but follow in the footsteps of her famous parents. Alexander Bronevitsky was the founder of the first VIA called “Friendship”. Edita Pieha, a popular pop singer of the USSR, met him when she was 25 years old. The marriage of the parents lasted more than twenty years, so we can safely say that Ilona was brought up in a happy family.
Daughter of her parents
Few people know, but in childhood, the Bronevitskaya Ilona complexes because of the fame that fell on her parents. For a long time, she was embarrassed by them, believing that her peers would treat her differently, and did not want to attract too much attention. However, very quickly at school they learned about all the “family” secrets. Ilona herself toured a lot around the country, observing by personal example how hard work gets money and fame. After graduation, she entered the Institute of Music. Now it’s not so important, talent or connections helped her get into the pop department. The main thing is that Ilona never used the name of her parents, but, on the contrary, achieved everything herself.
Screen Samples
The institute worked at the time eminent figures Polina Arkhangelskaya and Isaac Stockbant. It was to them that under the mentor's wing came Ilona Bronevitskaya. The biography of the girl contains facts according to which Stockbant added her to his own theater "Buff". Acting was the first step in Ilona's career. She began to study music much later. On the theatrical stage, she embodied a variety of roles. From the stage, Bronevitskaya hit the screens - in 1981 she made her debut in the biographical mini-series “Our Calling”. In it, she played one of the key heroines - Gerka Fradkin.
The picture did not gain much success. In 1986, Ilona repeated the image, but already in the full-length “school” drama “I am the outpost counselor”. Since then, she decided to quit her acting career, focusing on music.
By her own
In 1986, the Bronevitskaya Ilona became the backing vocalist of the band Edita Pieha. Together with her, Ilona again goes on tour. In 1988, she decides to pursue a solo career. But first he goes to the all-union contest "Yalta". His results were impressive - third place among the finalists. Since this period, Ilona has been preparing her own program and begins concert activity.
The first big performance took place in 1989 in Irkutsk. The singer even now calls traveling her favorite pastime, and then, embarking on free “swimming”, she was not afraid to leave for Afghanistan, where military events unfolded. She also became one of the first Russian performers to go to Finland with concerts. The performer’s repertoire included several original songs, as well as re-singing of well-known compositions. The full-length album “Dancing for Breakfast” was released only in 1995.
TV package

In parallel, Bronevitskaya launches the author’s program “House” on the “Russian Radio”.
In 1996, the singer presented the second disc, “What do you want, customers?” Like the name, the album is distinguished by a playful manner of performance, which is why the performer is not taken seriously. By the way, she failed to achieve the peak on which Edita Peha was.
And again the music!
The third and last CD at the moment, entitled “Songs for Breakfast,” went on sale in 2005. The author of most of the songs was Bronevitskaya herself. Ilona called the album “soft and pleasant.” She created it for ten years. This time the composition is distinguished by exclusively positive energy, a complete absence of regrets and female disappointments.
In addition to jazz trumpeter Vladimir Galaktionov, the guitarist of the Shtar collective Mikhail Ivanov participated in the recording, giving the hot rhythms of the Spanish guitar. A complete surprise was the throat singing that truly intrigued Ilona's fans.
Family life with seven seals

According to her admission, at one time, journalists did not treat her correctly, wrote a lot of lies, because she has no desire to share details. The first husband of Ilona Bronevitskaya is the musician Pyatris Gerulis. From marriage with him was born Stas Piekha, a modern successor to the dynasty. Starting with the “Star Factory”, today Stas is one of the sought-after young performers. The other two spouses of Ilona Alexandrovna are also musicians. In addition to Stas, she has a daughter Eric, who became an architect. Not so long ago, she gave Ilona a granddaughter.
