Diana Gurtskaya - famous singer, who was born on the territory of Abkhazia - in glorious city Sukhumi. Even as a child, she was practically no different from other children who constantly rejoiced and enjoyed life. But one day an incredible situation happened when the girl fell off the couch and broke her face. As a result of the examination, the doctors realized that the girl would be blind. The parents were shocked at first and simply couldn't believe that this had happened to their child. Gurtskaya told reporters that her parents could not tell the girl for a long time what was happening to her. She also reports that her friends constantly told that the world is filled with various colors, but the little girl did not believe in this, since everything was black in her mind.
Diana dreamed of becoming a singer from early childhood. She really liked not only music, but everything that was connected with it. She began her love of music with a small children's piano. It was given to her by her parents for the next holiday. At first I didn’t know how to play and just pressed the keys. Even when no melody was heard, the girl constantly rejoiced and enjoyed the sounds. It was this moment that became a turning point, and the parents were forced, in addition to the usual school, to send her to a music school. At first, the training was quite difficult, since the notes were not visible and everything had to be perceived only by ear. But then the learning process became quite simple, and the classes did not take much time.
The future singer was the most youngest child in family. Subsequently, by the way, her brother Robert will become her producer. She graduated from a boarding school for visually impaired and blind children in Tbilisi. And, of course, a music school in piano. She made her stage debut at the age of 10, singing a duet with Georgian singer Irma Sokhadze on the stage of the Tbilisi Philharmonic.
For my singing career our heroine collaborated with such masters as Jose Carreras, Goran Bregovic, Iosif Kobzon, Grigory Leps. She is an honored artist Russian Federation.
Feel with your soul, not with your eyes
Diana Gurtskaya constantly declares that she feels the whole world with her soul. Thanks to this, she manages to be a wonderful singer. Many people constantly laughed and said that she should not be a singer. Diana never stopped on her way to her goal. Mother never stopped either. She always asked her daughter to continue her activities. Also, the woman gave her to specialized schools that allowed her to develop her abilities.
Even at an early age, Diana Gurtskaya began to actively engage in music. After a few years, she mastered the instruments. Of course, at first the teachers were against it, and did not want to take it. Sometimes it affected the girl, but she did not stop. Now Gurtskaya is considered a famous singer, and all this is thanks to her desire.
What is behind the glasses?
Diana is a famous singer, and many people know her, but no one has ever seen her without glasses. There are many people in the world who do not like the singer. This is not strange, since the world is not perfect and there are always such skeptics. You can always meet people who will spread negative rumors about the singer. AT recent times quite often on the Internet one could see messages from "kind" fans that Gurtskaya was not blind. These statements could occur quite often. Sometimes they could significantly affect the minds of other people, and therefore the attitude towards the singer always remained tense.
Many people regularly state that there is no blindness and that this is just PR. The thing is that Diana almost never appeared without glasses. It was this factor that significantly influenced people, since they could not understand what was hidden behind them. Many have stated that everything is fine with her vision and therefore she does not take them off. Diana reacted sharply to such statements and constantly felt embarrassed.
The singer's managers, in turn, sent such people to the attending physicians. Doctors constantly confirmed the fact that she really did not see, but there were always those who did not believe. Sometimes Gurtskaya came across photographers who offered to take off glasses for a lot of money. The singer has always refused such requests. She believes that it makes no sense for other people to look into her eyes, which do not see anything. The star has been on stage for several years now and understands that such situations can only strengthen her spirit and prevent her from breaking down.
She never appears in public without sunglasses. But they are for a 35 year old Diana Gurtskaya is not just an accessory. Behind dark glasses, the singer carefully hides her eyes. Why? Diana herself does not like to talk about this.
— Sunglasses“This is part of my life,” she only states.
“I was shocked when I found out the truth about myself”
But now the secret that these glasses have been hiding for 19 years has been revealed! The secret was revealed by a random camera flash. Journalists met Diana Gurtskaya at a fashion show. At some point, the light turned out to be so bright that through the dark glasses the eyes of the star became visible: large, with long eyelashes and ... so sad! True, the look was very defocused. So it is immediately clear that these are the eyes of a blind person.
“I haven’t been able to see since I was born,” Diana Gurtskaya says. “Although, if I could return the color perception that I had before my mother’s death, I would not have asked for more ... Parents did not immediately understand the problem. The first month did not notice anything. But then my mother was embarrassed that I did not react to her movements. She told dad.
And the parents decided to take their daughter to the doctors. So it turned out that the girl was blind.
“Of course, mom and dad were very worried,” Diana sighs. — I was taken to the best ophthalmologists. But they, all as one, kept repeating: “She won’t be able to see!”
At the same time, the child himself did not even ... suspect about his illness.
“My parents didn’t dare to talk to me about this for a long time,” the artist recalls. “So I thought that everyone lives in the same darkness that surrounds me. I grew up like all ordinary children: I ran, played, played pranks, fell, of course, broke my elbows and knees. But mother's kisses removed any pain.
However, with age, questions began to appear.
“Friends were talking about some paints, and it seemed to me that they had the same perception as mine,” Diana continues. - When I was six years old, all the same age began to prepare for school. I also really wanted to go there. But on September 1, she stayed at home. I didn't understand why. And pestered my mother with questions.
In the end, the woman had to tell that her daughter was not like everyone else.
“Of course, there was a shock when I found out the whole truth about myself,” Gurtskaya sighs. But my life hasn't really changed. Everything was as before. At the age of seven, Diana went to Tbilisi to study at a boarding school for blind children. The girl also managed to finish music school, memorizing notes by ear. And in 1995, 17-year-old Diana Gurtskaya became the winner of the Yalta - Moscow - Transit competition, where she was noticed famous composer and singer Igor Nikolaev. It was he who helped the girl get on the big stage.
The young singer in dark glasses with an unusually beautiful voice penetrating the heart, immediately fell in love with the audience. People so wanted to help the "poor blind girl"! One man even offered to give her his… eyes. Of course, Diana refused. Medicine is not yet capable of such a transplant. But Gurtskaya nevertheless made an attempt to see the world in colors.
In 2003, during a tour in Ufa, she was persuaded to come to her center by ophthalmologist Ernst Muldashev. He gave Gurtskaya great hope. He said that the nerve is alive, which means that Diana will be able to see!
The singer was operated on in the clinic. To the left and to the right, Muldashev was giving interviews that the vision for the star was about to return. But the miracle did not happen, although the doctor was famously promoted. Gurtskaya, on the other hand, was recovering from anesthesia for more than a year, was endlessly ill and lost 15 kilograms!
What if the baby will also live in darkness?
Alas, Diana was left blind. But that didn't stop her from finding hers. woman's happiness. In 2005, the star married lawyer Pyotr Kucherenko. And a year later she got pregnant.
- It was such a blessing! Diana recalls.
In fact, she was very worried about the eyes of her unborn child. What if the baby will also live in darkness? Therefore, the first thing, as soon as the boy was born, Gurtskaya asked the doctors if everything was in order with his vision?
Fortunately, all is well. Kostya is already six years old. He is the main mother's assistant. And one of the few who sees her without glasses.
- My mom is very good! he says.
We know. And Diana is in vain embarrassed to show her eyes. After all, they are amazingly beautiful!

Recently, quite often on the Internet one could see messages from "kind" fans that Gurtskaya is not blind. These statements could occur quite often. Sometimes they could significantly affect the minds of other people, and therefore the attitude towards the singer always remained tense.
The singer, entering the stage in dark glasses, immediately attracted attention, and although it was already known that the girl was blind from birth, for some reason many doubted this, and the question of whether Diana Gurtskaya really does not see was one of the most given.
Although such an interest can still be explained, because we are used to the fact that people with disabilities rarely achieve something in life, and then a fragile girl appeared before the audience, who managed to win their hearts, having gone a long and rather difficult path to recognition .
Recall that Diana was born in 1978 in the city of Sukhumi (Georgia) in a simple large family.
She really was born blind, which her parents did not even suspect at first, and when they realized that something was wrong with their daughter and turned to specialists, they made a disappointing diagnosis - congenital blindness, moreover, the girl does not and will not chances of gaining sight.
“My father and mother did not dare to explain my condition to me for a long time, and I could not understand why the world is black for me. After all, parents and friends talked among themselves about some colors and colors ... But gradually some kind of seventh or eighth feeling formed in me, which painted my world, understandable only to me. I have been living in it ever since. This is the world, just the way I imagine it to be. But at least I feel comfortable in it.”
That fortitude, which young Diana possessed, helped her, being in eternal darkness, to go through life towards her goal. After all, God, having taken away the sight from the girl, rewarded her with a special gift - an extraordinary voice, which already at the age of 8 was such that it delighted the teachers of the boarding school for blind children, where Diana studied.
Over time, the girl not only honed her vocals, but also learned to play the piano, and at the age of 18 she already became the winner of a music competition.
Having moved from her native Sukhumi to Moscow, Diana graduated from Gnesinka and began to take her first steps on Russian stage. In 2000, her first debut album saw the light, after which four more appeared, and the singer herself began to actively perform concerts and go on tour.
Muldashev did not persuade Gurtskaya to come to him, just when she was on tour in Ufa, someone advised her to contact Muldashev. I was recovering from anesthesia for more than a year” - this is generally bullshit, drugs leave the body much faster.

In that jury was the famous composer Igor Nikolaev, who later helped the girl get on big stage. Diana records first music album, which was called "You are here."

After Igor Nikolaev helped her choose a song in which Diana "saw" not with her eyes, but with her soul, real fame comes to her.
What's wrong with Diana Gurtskaya's eyes
Singer Diana Gurtskaya reflects on all this, recalling the experience of her own parents. Once upon a time she was a "child with handicapped- Diana has not seen since birth. But that didn't stop her from growing up as a confident person. own forces and who can enjoy life. Today Diana Gurtskaya - famous singer, Member of the Public Chamber of the Russian Federation, Honored Artist of Russia. Having become a mother myself, I understand that my parents were very worried about the fact that I was born blind, worried about my future. I'm worried about him,” I've heard this from parents of disabled children more than once. If I'm looking for a phone, my son brings it to me from the age of two. From the same age, he understood, for example, if I'm looking for slippers, then I need to take me to them.
Diana Gurtskaya sees colors. Do not be surprised, every color for her is something very real. That is why Igor wrote in the song: “I learned to live in the power of dreams, I learned to fall asleep without tears ... Even at dusk, you can easily find a picture of Diana Gurtskaya on the poster. Dark glasses, when not close-up, seem to obscure her face. They say others Russian journalists offered Diana a lot of money for the right to photograph her without glasses. Not for sale .. Why give a reason to look at unseeing eyes? I take off my glasses only when the closest people are nearby, - the singer answers in such cases. Because the stage is a thread that connects it with the world. A place where she can see through the "magic glass".
Singer Diana Gurtskaya has been on the stage for more than a decade, so this performer hardly needs to be introduced. That is why, with constant regularity, the Internet explodes headlines like "Shame on Gurtskaya under glasses" and the like. Not so long ago, journalists again published pictures that fully confirm the illness of Diana Gurtskaya. It is unlikely that what appeared before the audience, even for a second, falls under the definition of "the shame of Gurtskaya under glasses." But there were no specific shifts in Diana Gurtskaya's ability to see.
They tried in every possible way to take a photo of Diana Gurtskots without glasses in order to expose her deceit. Such negative PR did not go unnoticed, people began to speak and doubt her blindness. It happened in the Kremlin, after the concert, Diana went to the journalists and then the MUZ-TV channel began to interview her. Gurtskaya had to wear glasses since childhood, so she adult life wears them, and even, having become popular, Diana did not stop doing this.
These rumors hurt Diana. Her managers, in order to refute the lie, sent the girls to the attending physicians, who confirmed the fact that Gurtskaya was blind from birth. As the singer herself said, the stage for her is not just a place of popularity and fame, this is the only thread that connects her with the real world, with people. In the work of Diana there is a clip that fully reflects her life. In this clip, a young blind girl plays the violin in the subway. This motif runs throughout difficult fate Diana Gurtskaya.
“I was shocked when I found out the truth about myself”
Diana Gurtskaya took off her black glasses for the first time this week. It happened at a photo shoot for " private collection", where famous people appear in the form of picture heroes. For the first time, I really posed without glasses, only slightly covering my eyes with my hand, Diana told the Komsomolskaya Pravda newspaper. But it was so required by the plot, and this does not mean at all that Diana Gurtskaya took off her glasses after the operation. The whole point is that saying "listening to a movie" is somehow ridiculous, although it is more true.
Although, if I could return the color perception that I had before my mother’s death, I would not have asked for more ... Parents did not immediately understand the problem. Of course, mom and dad were very worried, Diana sighs. - I was taken to the best ophthalmologists. Of course, there was a shock when I found out the whole truth about myself, - Gurtskaya sighs. One man even offered to give her his… eyes. Of course, Diana refused. He said that the nerve is alive, which means that Diana will be able to see! But the miracle did not happen, although the doctor was famously promoted. Gurtskaya, on the other hand, was recovering from anesthesia for more than a year, was endlessly ill and lost 15 kilograms!
But one day an incredible situation happened when the girl fell off the couch and broke her face. As a result of the examination, the doctors realized that the girl would be blind. Gurtskaya told reporters that her parents could not tell the girl for a long time what was happening to her. Diana dreamed of becoming a singer from early childhood. She began her love of music with a small children's piano. It was given to her by her parents for the next holiday.
Alas, Diana was left blind. But this did not prevent her from finding her female happiness. In fact, she was very worried about the eyes of her unborn child. Kostya is already six years old. He is the main mother's assistant.
Her father was a miner and her mother was a teacher. AT early childhood little Diana was exactly the same as other children, her parents did not even suspect that their daughter had congenital blindness. As for little Diana, at that time she had no idea about the terrible illness.
Recently, quite often on the Internet one could see messages from "kind" fans that Gurtskaya is not blind. These statements could occur quite often. Sometimes they could significantly affect the minds of other people, and therefore the attitude towards the singer always remained tense. The video tells about a young girl who did not see anything, but did not lose heart. He tried and collected money for the operation, but then a harsh verdict was sounded, which was announced by the doctors. They stated that it would not be possible to return vision, even if a series of operations were carried out.
But her relatives supported her, especially the girl's mother, who in every possible way contributed to the development of her daughter's singing abilities. But the girl, with her perseverance, convinced everyone that she could play the piano.
Having learned my address, the parents brought the girl for examination. Was there any way to help Diana? After all, her eyes reacted to light, like the heroine from Nodar Dumbadze's novel "I see the sun." What are you. We would definitely know about it. As for electronic glasses, they really exist. Then he came to our institute and asked me if it was worth fighting further. How and on what should a child fall off the couch in order to go blind in both eyes. Well, yes, I'm not a doctor, maybe. I don't know if she's blind or not, but it's all a bit strange.
