For a month now, Channel One has been running the Ice Age-5 show, where professional skaters skate in pairs with show business stars. For the first time this project started in 2006, then it was called "Stars on Ice". For 8 years of its existence, "Ice Age" has shown many interesting numbers, taught about a hundred non-professionals to ride and managed to fall in love with the audience. In connection with the resumption of the project, we decided to select the brightest and most colorful (in our opinion) couples in its entire history.

Tatiana Navka - Marat Basharov

This couple was adored not only by the audience, but also by Tatyana Anatolyevna Tarasova herself. Tatiana and Marat met on the very first project, immediately liked each other and defeated their rivals. They were so harmonious, cheerful and enchanting that it was simply impossible to give the victory to someone else in Stars on Ice. Remember at least their "Quadrille" or "Tango on Ice". And what steps and support Marat followed! Together they performed in the fall of 2009 as participants in the show “Ice Age. The best". True, they did not win this time.

It is interesting that there were not only friendly and professional relations between Navka and Basharov. They had a real romance! They first announced their relationship in 2009. Marat and Tatiana began to appear everywhere together and behaved like a real couple in love. Some time after parting with their former spouses, the young people announced their intention to get married. But, not having time to formalize the relationship, Tatyana and Marat broke up. Nobody, except the lovers themselves, knows the reasons for this separation.

Anna Bolshova - Alexey Tikhonov

Anna and Alexey took part in the very first ice project. They were remembered by the audience primarily for the numbers "Juno and Avos" and "The Phantom of the Opera". Few were able to restrain their emotions from these rentals. Anna and Alexey won the second place, having brilliantly skated all their programs. Their couple was distinguished by romance, sincerity and artistry. It seemed to many viewers that such emotions could only be portrayed by people in romantic relationships. But, unlike Navka with Basharov, Anna and Alexei were connected only by the project.

In an interview, the actress admitted that while everyone is thinking about their romance with Tikhonov, she can live peacefully with her young man Alexander.

Victoria Daineko - Alexey Yagudin

Vika and Alexey took part in the 2007 Ice Age. They made it to the finals, but never won the prize. Despite this, the couple was one of the brightest among the other members of the show. At first, Victoria and Alexei's skating was not distinguished by high technique, because Yagudin is a single skater, it was not easy for him to adapt to his partner and agree to support. In addition, he underwent a complex hip surgery. But over time, the duet of Daineko and Yagudin turned out to be very harmonious.

Among the most striking of their numbers are "Waiting for a Miracle", "Vampires" and the number where Victoria played a clumsy stewardess.

Victoria and Alexei also had a romantic relationship. The young singer was christened a homeless woman, because it was because of her that the skater broke up with his bride. In an interview, Yagudin said: “Vika is a very beautiful girl, I like her human qualities. But what is between us is still a secret. " By the way, Victoria persuaded Alexei to record a joint clip "Needle", where the athlete sang for the first time.

Chulpan Khamatova - Roman Kostomarov

They were considered the most technical pair in the Ice Age, and coaches and judges predicted victory almost from the very first days of the project. And so it happened - they were the # 1 figure skaters on this show. Recall at least "Irish Dance", which the audience applauded while standing, and Tatyana Anatolyevna regretted that she could not put the top ten. The number to the song from "Professional" was also performed at a height. But we must not forget the others: "Blues", "Jesus Christ is a superstar", "Hello, I'm your aunt!" etc.

By the way, during training, the actress was seriously injured - doctors diagnosed a fracture of the hip bone. Despite this, Chulpan continued to participate in the project. Colleagues say that the actress sometimes danced with tears of pain in her eyes. But this did not prevent the pair from winning!

Ekaterina Gordeeva - Egor Beroev

This is perhaps one of the most beautiful and harmonious couples in the entire history of the project. They were also credited with an affair, but Yegor still stayed with his wife (Ksenia Alferova, who participated in the same project). The actor was happy that Katya was paired with him: “For me, participating in the project is a pure gamble. But when they called me the name of Katya Gordeeva and suggested that I could skate with her, I could not argue with Ilya, obediently came to the ice and put on skates. Yes, of course, you have to train a lot to match the world famous figure skater."

The first tango of Beroev and Gordeva was not only beautiful, the actor decided on several difficult supports.

And the number to the song from "Admiral" and "Confess" by Adriano Celentano were just at their best. How much charisma and passion were in the numbers of Gordeeva and Beroev! And how jealous Xenia was! One way or another, the relationship between the skater and the actor did not continue, but they still took the first place.

Ksenia Alferova - Povilas Vanagas

The wife of Yegor Beroev, Ksenia Alferova, also made it onto our list. The actress did not have such success as her husband, and she did not start novels either. Although the performances of Ksenia and Povilas were incredibly beautiful, the duet received the Audience Award as "The Most Stylish Couple".

Ksenia immediately agreed to take part in “Ice Age-2”: “I have always liked this program. I didn't even bother to think, I was in favor of participating in the project with both hands. During training, Povilas seemed too romantic, and I wanted expression, but we became the most emotional couple in training."

The most memorable numbers of the couple were “Requiem”, “That same Munchausen”, “Fast samba” and “Don't rush”. Maybe not every number got all sixes, but the audience remembered them for a long time.

Oksana Domnina - Vladimir Yaglych

The couple performed in the fourth "Ice Age" and won first place. Oksana and Vladimir met on the project. It was there, on the ice, that they gradually began to recognize each other. Daily night training brought young people very close. The passion was not only during the performances, but also in training and outside the project. Oksana and Vladimir even wanted to get married, but the skater returned to Roman Kostomarov.

Interestingly, the first few numbers were not entirely successful. It would be more correct to say that they were one of the most unsuccessful of the entire project. But having pulled themselves together, Oksana and Vladimir began to train hard. Their training was not in vain. Starting from the sixth performance, the couple received only twelve points. Some of the most memorable numbers were: "Hipsters", "Snow", "Island", "Finnish Polka" and "I am at your feet."

Maria Petrova - Mikhail Galustyan

Maybe they were not the most technical couple, but their numbers were the most fun, extraordinary and kind. At first Mikhail could not imagine how he would be skating: “Where am I and where is the ice, I’m from Sochi, there have never been ice rinks!”. But everything worked out, the couple performed, the audience laughed and applauded, the jury gave marks. There was a charming clumsiness in Galustyan, which won over.

I would like to note their performance to the song of Alla Pugacheva "I Kissed You", the numbers "Guest from the Future", "Eastwick Witches", "Indian Dance", "Tell the Snow Maiden where she was", and, of course, the number to the song "Crazy Frog ". In general, the duet came together and amused the audience.

Margarita Drobyazko - Stanislav Yarushin

In "Ice Age-5", which is currently underway, it is already possible to note a couple of Margarita Drobyazko and Stanislav Yarushin. They are not only the undoubted leaders in terms of points (for 5 performances they received all 12 points), but their numbers cannot but cause admiration. We can safely say that Margarita is finally lucky with a partner.

One way or another, it was not necessary to teach Yarushin to stand on skates.

In one of the interviews, the star of the TV series "Univer" admitted that he had been playing hockey until the age of 18: “As a child, my parents sent me to hockey, and until the age of 18 I was engaged in it professionally. Hope this experience helps me on the project. But figure skates have a difference from hockey - they have teeth, and if you give your body a little forward, like a hockey player, you stumble over them. I didn’t get used to it right away.” One way or another, it was not necessary to teach Yarushin to stand on skates. Will they win in the fifth "Ice Age", only time will tell, because they have many strong rivals.

Peter Chernyshev - Elena Podkaminskaya

No less interesting pair of the fifth "Ice Age". Elena and Peter are doing well with the numbers, but they are slightly behind Margarita and Stanislav in points. This is how Podkaminskaya herself commented on their duet: “Both me and Petya are perfectionists and are aimed at achieving the best. But this also introduces a certain drama into our situation. After all, I only skated two and a half months ago for the first time in my life! Petya is a world-class figure skater and coach. I trust him completely, and the main thing for me after the rental is Petya's kind look."
