What Zhanna looked like during her illness. Zhanna Friske: last photos before her death. Zhanna Friske spent three months before her death in a coma

The most beautiful woman, the favorite of millions, a loving mother and wife, Zhanna Friske, has passed away.

Her name has truly become a symbol of success and beauty. It took two years to fight a terrible disease - cancer, a brain tumor. The money collected for treatment, expensive clinics, support from loved ones and relatives, and even the birth of a long-awaited son could not prevent the tragic outcome.

Zhanna's disease first appeared during pregnancy. According to her common-law husband, she knew about her illness, but refused treatment in order to bear a child. During this time, the singer became very close to her sister Natalya. It was she who had that ill-fated dream that foreshadowed trouble.

Natalya Friske saw her teeth falling out in a dream, which means the loss of a loved one.

Zhanna did not go to the doctors for a long time, although she had been tormented by headaches for a long time. She was taken to the hospital after she lost consciousness in the shopping center. Mom, Olga Vladimirovna, was inclined to consider her daughter’s poor health and headache a sign of postpartum depression, and therefore decided to distract her daughter by going shopping with her.

At the hospital they discovered a brain tumor that was deep-seated and therefore inoperable. Later, doctors came to the conclusion that it was glioblastoma, a tumor that can be treated surgically.

This is one of the types of cancer that is insidious and aggressive; after the first symptoms appear, the patient lives no more than three months if left untreated. And even with the help of treatment, life expectancy does not increase much at all.

Hamburg and the Eppendorf clinic were the first starting point in the series of fight against the disease.

We continued treatment in New York, at the best specialized clinic named after Sloan-Kettering. Treatment in this hospital was quite expensive, consultation with specialists alone costs $5,000, and the cost of a single course of procedures is about $300,000. After exhausting consultations, chemotherapy was chosen.

After treatment in the USA, it was decided to transfer Zhanna to Los Angeles, where the chemistry was replaced with experimental drugs. Relatives did their best to protect the patient from media interference, but the information leaked to the media was as follows: Zhanna was allegedly treated with a new nanodrug ICT-107, which, according to the developers of the miracle vaccine, increases the chances of recovery.

Despite the protests of her family, Zhanna decided to try an untested medicine, which, as it turned out, was not in vain. After taking it, she felt better, lost 7 kg and even returned home. But it turned out that the disease only stopped for a short time.

In recent months, the singer was already unconscious, in a comatose state. Before her death, the singer no longer recognized her loved ones. At the time of the death of the people's favorite, there were her mother, father, sister and an old friend from “Brilliant” - Olga Orlova.

The name of Zhanna Friske became widely recognizable when she left the Blestyashchie team and began a solo career. But, unfortunately, her star went out too early. Zhanna was diagnosed with an incurable disease, which ended her life at the very dawn of her youth. The singer was a sex symbol, the dream of millions of men, always irresistible and beautiful. Women tried to follow her example and be like her. The last photos of Zhanna Friske, taken before her death, amazed everyone. It was impossible to believe that the disease had changed her beyond recognition.

Zhanna left at the peak of her career. In a fairly short period of time, she managed to achieve not only as a singer, but also as an actress. Despite her outward tenderness and fragility, the young beautiful woman was incredibly strong and resilient. She never gave in to difficulties; it seemed to temper her, but in no way made her embittered.

Relatives and friends could not believe that Zhanna was seriously ill. They believed until the very end that she would be able to overcome the disease and return to her old life and on stage. But, unfortunately, the miracle did not happen and everyone’s beloved Zhanna passed away.

Zhanna Friske's fight for life

Already at a fairly adult age, Zhanna learned from her parents that she had a twin brother who died in the seventh month from asphyxia. This happened at birth. A few months later, Zhanna was born; she was born weak and weighed only 1380 grams.

The girl was a fighter by nature and achieved everything herself. She took on any job. But, being a creative person, she took part in various castings, so in fact, she ended up in the “Brilliant” group. Over time, as often happens, she grew out of this project and went “free swimming”, building a solo career. The name of Zhanna Friske soon became known to everyone.

Her personal life was constantly discussed in the press, but she preferred not to talk about it until she met. It was with him that they were going to get married in Miami, but it didn’t come to the wedding ceremony. Zhanna Friske, who never left the TV screens, suddenly disappeared.

The last photos before her death, which she herself published on her online pages, where she was in an interesting position. Then, some time after the lull, the paparazzi posted shocking photographs in which the singer was unrecognizable. Zhanna was lying on a hospital gurney. The picture was taken at one of the capital's airports. It was after this that Dmitry Shepelev spoke about Zhanna’s illness in Andrei Malakhov’s program. Since there was no point in hiding this fact anymore.

The best doctors, both ours and foreign ones, took care of the singer’s treatment. There was a moment when it seemed like there was hope. According to her friend and parents, Zhanna began to lead an almost normal lifestyle. She herself got up and cooked something, took care of the child. They even managed to persuade her to visit a beauty salon, where she and Olga Orlova had a manicure, and then had a girls’ get-together.

These were, perhaps, the last photos before her death, in which Zhanna Friske smiles carefree.

The last year of her life, the singer devoted herself entirely to her son, she tried to spend as much time with him as possible. The woman believed in her recovery, following all the doctors’ recommendations.


During her illness, Zhanna was supported by her close friend Olga Orlova

She did gymnastics, swam in the pool and took prescribed medications. They made Jeanne's life easier for a while, but their effect affected her appearance. Zhanna Friske gained a lot of weight, journalists posted her last photos before her death, in them the woman looked tired and was completely different from her former self.

Decline of the star of domestic show business

When the relatives of Zhanna Friske, who was diagnosed with cancer, decided to make the news about her illness public, it came as a bolt from the blue for many. Everyone refused to believe it, hoping to the last that it was not true. The media actively discussed what happened, and soon a fundraiser was opened for the singer’s treatment.

An incredible amount was raised in record time. Zhanna asked to send part of the collected funds to children who also received a disappointing diagnosis. Not only her fans, but the whole country prayed for Jeanne’s health. The topic of her health was constantly discussed and was almost number one among millions of people.


In the last days of her life, Zhanna spent a lot of time with her son Plato

Shortly before Zhanna's death, reports appeared in the press that she was feeling better. Many breathed a sigh of relief, believing that there was finally light at the end of the tunnel.

But, as it turned out later, the improvement in well-being was only a short remission. Zhanna Friske passed away on June 15, 2015. It seemed that nature itself was mourning her death; that day it rained like an endless wall.


The last photos from the life of Zhanna Friske, when she was still sane

She died without regaining consciousness. The woman spent her last days in a coma, from which she was no longer able to come out. The artist was taken to the States for treatment. Journalists accompanied Zhanna Friske everywhere, following her everywhere. The extraction of sensational material is an integral part of their work.

They managed to take a photo. These were practically the last shots before the death of the public's favorite. Zhanna spent her last days within the walls of her home, surrounded by relatives and closest friends. They sat near her bed, replacing each other, not leaving for a minute.

Farewell to Zhanna

A civil memorial service was held at Crocus City Hall on the eve of the funeral. Everyone was able to say goodbye to the famous singer. The line was an endless stream, men and women of different ages could not hide their tears and carried flowers to the coffin.

Relatives wanted to see only close people at this sad and difficult hour. But, given the fame and popular love for their dear person, they decided not to deprive the people of the opportunity to say goodbye to their beloved singer.


Funeral of Zhanna Friske

And it would be selfish to deprive fans of such an opportunity, especially since Zhanna loved her audience very much. Zhanna Friske's funeral service and funeral took place without the presence of strangers.


Parents at Zhanna's funeral

The closest and relatives were present at the funeral ceremony. Considering Zhanna’s publicity, of course, there were some journalists, but there were few of them.

Why was Dmitry Shepelev not with Zhanna in her last days of life?

At the farewell ceremony for Zhanna Friske, all her close and relatives were present except Dmitry Shepelev, the singer’s common-law husband. At that time he was abroad with their joint son Plato. Journalists of the yellow press, vying with each other to pick up this information, published articles with screaming headlines that Shepelev never loved his wife, since he did not bother to see her off on her last journey.

In fact, Dmitry returned immediately as soon as he learned about Zhanna’s death, leaving his son in Bulgaria with his parents.

He appeared in the church where the funeral of his common-law wife was being held, one of the first. They decided not to take Plato and their son with Zhanna because at that time he was only 2 years old and there was no need for the child to watch all this.

How was the funeral of Zhanna Friske

The funeral service for the popularly beloved artist was held in Yelokhovsky Cathedral. The ceremony took place early in the morning in the presence of relatives and friends of the deceased. In infancy, Jeanne was baptized in this same temple. But this has absolutely no secret meaning. The singer was buried at the Nikolo Arkhangelsk cemetery. Famous people attended the funeral, among whom were Philip Kirkorov, Sergei Lazarev and many other colleagues from the singer and actress Zhanna Friske.


Many famous people attended the singer's funeral

Information regarding the date and place of the funeral was known only to a narrow circle of people, so as not to create unnecessary fuss and to allow relatives to say goodbye to Zhanna without prying eyes. But, nevertheless, more than 100 people came to say goodbye and see her off with thunderous applause (as befits a public person).

Which celebrities were spotted at the funeral?

In addition to Sergei Lazarev and Philip Kirkorov, the singer’s funeral was also attended by Sergei Zverev, Lera Kudryavtseva, Svetlana Surganova, Zhanna’s colleague and part-time best friend Olga Orlova and many others.

Friske's husband commented on the singer's death

The common-law husband of singer Zhanna Friske, Dmitry Shepelev, thanked everyone who provided material and spiritual support to Zhanna, who had been struggling with a serious illness for 1.5 years. He wrote about this on his Facebook.

“We always repeated: “Happiness loves silence.” I remain true to these words, because Zhanna remains for me an absolute, pure, unique happiness... I know for sure that we could not cope without you. I want to thank everyone: who donated money for Zhanna’s treatment, prayed for her health, simply thought about her, wished her happiness and strength. I want you to know: these two years are largely your fault. Thank you,” Shepelev wrote.

In the last months of Friske’s life, doctors and a nurse abandoned her

The singer's sister and mother independently looked after Zhanna for six months until her death.

Doctors and a nurse abandoned the dying Zhanna Friske several months before the tragedy. The singer’s sister Natalya told LifeNews about this. According to her, doctors recorded a significant deterioration in Zhanna’s condition six months ago and accepted the fact that they could no longer help her.

Over the past five months, Zhannochka’s condition has worsened, she was often unconscious, all the doctors abandoned her, the sister complained. - Only my mother and I looked after Zhanna. But before that, my mother never trusted anyone to take medications - she did everything herself.

According to her, the last of those who literally ran away from the dying singer was a nurse who was recommended to the Friske family in one of the Moscow hospitals. The woman not only refused to provide assistance to the artist’s loved ones, but also almost killed Jeanne herself.

She seemed wonderful and sensitive to us, but after spending only one night in the house, she simply turned around and left. And she left Zhanna alone. Mom saw this when Zhanna was lying face down on the pillow and almost suffocated, Natalya recalls.

Let us remind you that Zhanna Friske died in her house near Moscow on Monday, June 15, at 22:30. Only an hour and a half after this, her friend Olga Orlova, finally realizing that Zhanna was no longer there, called an ambulance. Arriving doctors confirmed the death of the artist.

Dmitry Shepelev: Zhanna was absolute and pure happiness for me


Zhanna Friske's common-law husband Dmitry Shepelev on his Facebook page thanked everyone who has been with the singer lately.

The common-law husband of singer Zhanna Friske, Dmitry Shepelev, published a post on his Facebook page in which he spoke about the last two years of his difficult struggle with his beloved’s illness and thanked everyone who helped Zhanna during this difficult time. This is Shepelev's first public statement after Friske's death.

We always repeated: “Happiness loves silence.” I remain true to these words, because Zhanna remains absolute for me...

Posted by Dmitry Shepelev on June 16, 2015
- We always repeated: “Happiness loves silence.” I remain true to these words, because Zhanna remains for me absolute, pure, unique happiness. We didn't give up and fought to win. They say that 2 years in such a situation is a long time. But, of course, for us this is very little... - wrote Shepelev.

The artist's common-law husband thanked everyone who helped Zhanna and her family in the fight against the disease - both financially and with prayers and kind words. According to Dmitry Shepelev, now he is going to focus on helping those who, like Friske, are fighting for their lives and health to the end and do not give up.

For a year and a half, Zhanna Friske tried to defeat brain cancer - she was diagnosed with a terrible diagnosis in early 2014. After lengthy treatment in clinics in Germany and the USA, the singer and her family moved to the Baltic states. In the summer of 2014, Friske began to recover: her vision, partially lost due to the tumor, began to return, she noticeably lost weight, stood on her feet and could move around without a wheelchair. Nevertheless, doctors warned that after radiation therapy, Friske may experience complications - post-radiation changes in the brain.

Many stars of Russian show business and friends of the singer expressed their condolences. Among those who until the last moment kept in touch with Friske, who, due to illness, tried to lead an almost reclusive lifestyle, was her colleague and close friend Dmitry Nagiyev. Singer and composer Dmitry Malikov called the words from their last song with Friske prophetic.

The singer, according to her father, will be buried at the Nikolo-Arkhangelskoye cemetery in the capital.

Zhanna Friske's son will not be brought to the funeral, fearing for his psyche

The singer’s sister Natalya Friske told LifeNews that at the family council they decided to leave two-year-old Plato in Bulgaria.

The son of Zhanna Friske and Dmitry Shepelev will not be brought to his mother’s funeral, so as not to traumatize the two-year-old’s psyche. The singer’s sister told LifeNews about this.

According to her, Shepelev himself will return to Moscow on the first flight to see his wife off on her last journey. Earlier it became known that Zhanna Friske would be buried at the Nikolo-Arkhangelsk cemetery.

Dima left for Bulgaria with a heavy heart, and as soon as he found out about what had happened, he was going to take the first flight here. They will most likely leave the child there so that he does not see this,” Natalya said.

Now the singer’s relatives and friends are puzzled not only by preparing for the farewell ceremony with Zhanna, but also by resolving questions regarding the future fate of little Plato. According to Natalya, his father will raise the boy.

I hope that we will see our nephew on weekends,” said Natalya Friske.

Let us remind you that Zhanna Friske died in her house near Moscow on Monday, June 15, at 22:30. Only an hour and a half after this, her friend Olga Orlova, finally realizing that Zhanna was no longer there, called an ambulance. Arriving doctors confirmed the death of the artist.

Nevertheless, doctors warned that after radiation therapy, Friske may experience complications - post-radiation changes in the brain.

In recent months, Zhanna Friske lived in Moscow in a country house with her common-law husband Dmitry Shepelev and little son Platon.

Zhanna Friske spent three months before her death in a coma

The father of the popular Russian singer who died the day before, Vladimir Friske, said in an interview with Komsomolskaya Pravda radio that Zhanna Friske spent the last three months in a coma. According to him, the singer’s family did not inform anyone about this fact all this time.

Shortly before her death, the media write, Zhanna Friske stopped recognizing her loved ones. In recent days, the family has not left the singer: doctors have already predicted the imminent end. At the time of her death, her parents, sister Natalia and a close friend, ex-soloist of the group “Brilliant” Olga Orlova, were with her.

Zhanna Platon's son and her common-law husband Dmitry Shepelev were not nearby at the time of death. The father and child are in Bulgaria.

“The child must stay with his father. If he gives it to us, allows us to raise him, we will help, naturally... He will not be left without anyone,” says the singer’s father, Vladimir Friske.

The singer's funeral is scheduled for Thursday, June 18. Zhanna will most likely be buried at the Nikolo-Arkhangelskoye cemetery in the Balashikha district of the Moscow region.

Let us recall that Zhanna Friske’s serious illness became known in January 2014. She was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. Viewers collected more than 60 million rubles to help the singer, but she donated some of it to help children suffering from cancer.

Zhanna Friske gained fame as a member of the group "Brilliant", then she began a solo career. She starred in the films “Night Watch”, “Day Watch” and “What Men Talk About”.

Malikov called the words from their last song with Friske prophetic


The famous singer and composer Dmitry Malikov recalled working with Zhanna Friske on a song, which became one of the last in the singer’s career.

Relatives and friends, colleagues and fans of Zhanna Friske mourn the death of the singer. Everyone who cared about the popular performer is trying to support her family in this tragic moment and share their memories of Zhanne as a kind and decent person.

Zhanna Friske recorded one of her last songs as a duet with Dmitry Malikov. It contained the words: “Snow falls quietly on the palm of your hand and melts, it’s not easy for me now, I miss you so much.” As the singer noted, it was these lines that became prophetic, because after that duet the connection between the artists was severed.

I can’t say that Zhanna was my close friend. But I was lucky enough to meet her on the same stage many times, and Zhanna recorded one of her last songs as a duet with me, this was a year and a half ago. The song is very light and danceable, with the words: “Snow falls quietly on the palm of your hand and melts, it’s not easy for me now, I miss you so much.” These very touching words in a sense became prophetic, because then she left for America, there was a very difficult birth, her illness began, and since then we have lost contact. But the song remains, lives on and is liked by many. “I’m now on tour in the north, and when I woke up and opened the news, this news, of course, shocked and shocked me,” Malikov said.

According to Malikov, he learned news about Zhanna Friske’s health from her friend and former partner in “Brilliant” Olga Orlova. The singer believed until the last moment that Zhanna would recover.

During her illness, we did not keep in touch, but I always learned about her condition from Olga Orlova. In the last few weeks and months, I lost track of her, and it seemed to me that the situation was getting better, but everything turned out the other way around,” Dmitry said.

Let us remind you that information about the death of Zhanna Friske appeared on the night of Monday to Tuesday. For a year and a half, the singer struggled with a terrible disease, but still failed to defeat brain cancer. The singer spent her last days unconscious in her house near Moscow. Many stars of Russian show business and friends of the singer expressed their condolences. Zhanna Friske, according to her father, will be buried at the Nikolo-Arkhangelskoye cemetery in the capital.

Zhanna is like that, and carelessness is closest to her.”

Three mysteries of the death of Zhanna Friske


The details of the death of singer Zhanna Friske are still known from relatives and friends only in the most general terms - Zhanna’s father and friends are in a state of shock. However, what is known also raises questions.

Several months in a coma at home

Zhanna, according to her father Vladimir Borisovich, died in her parents’ house in an elite village in the Balashikha area - the singer returned there after treatment in the USA. Zhanna’s father, in an interview with MK, said that his daughter had been in a coma for the last three months, but they did not want to take her to any hospital. How did this become possible?

Vladimir Borisovich explained this by saying that the doctors, understanding Zhanna’s serious condition, did not want her to die in their medical institution. But why did the family agree to this? How can a person in a coma stay at home? After all, to maintain life you need special devices, a lot of medicines... At the Balashikha Cancer Center they told us that they had not received any requests from Zhanna’s relatives.

According to unconfirmed information, not long ago Zhanna was seen together with her common-law husband Dmitry Shepelev for a walk in the park. However, passers-by could recognize each other...

Why was the ambulance called so late and who was next to Zhanna?

As reported by the media, Zhanna died at half past ten in the evening on Monday, June 15. An ambulance was called to the house in Balashikha only after midnight - and it is said that it was not Zhanna’s relatives who called it, but her close friend Olga Orlova.

When we called Olga Orlova, she said that she could find the strength to tell the sad details only after her friend’s funeral.

— Why didn’t you call an ambulance right away? - we asked Olga.

- I’m not ready to answer you right now...

“The only thing Olga explained was that Zhanna did not have a nurse.

According to Zhanna’s sister, Natalya Friske, cited by Lifenews, a private nurse was hired to care for Zhanna, but she... ran away. Natalya herself and the singer’s mother looked after her sister. Why were the doctors called only almost three hours after Zhanna died? Was anyone with her at the time of her death? There are no answers to these questions yet.

The common-law husband and father of Zhanna Platon’s child, Dmitry Shepelev, was in Bulgaria with his son when Friske died, having flown there the day before the tragic event. Those around Friske said that it was impossible to leave, knowing about his wife’s critical condition.

Zhanna’s parents are ready to raise her son Platon, but Vladimir Borisovich made a reservation in a conversation with us: this will happen if he and his wife “are trusted with the child.”

Dmitry Shepelev must fly to his wife’s funeral, but he will leave Plato in Bulgaria, said Natalya Friske. And in the future it is my father who intends to study Plato. Does this mean that there are internal conflicts in Jeanne's family? God grant that this turns out not to be the case...

Olga Orlova: “Now I’m organizing a funeral, and I’m in so much pain that I can’t explain anything”


Zhanna Friske's closest friend, who took all possible part in rescuing the singer, cannot hold back her tears.

There are no indifferent people either among the singer’s colleagues or all those who sincerely believed in her recovery. Everyone who deeply sympathized with Zhanna Friske at the stage of treatment and struggle for life today speaks and writes about her, thereby expressing their general grief over what happened.

Despite this, the media began to circulate information that two days before the singer’s death, her husband Dmitry Shepelev left with their child for Bulgaria, allegedly leaving his wife.

With the question of why the TV presenter left, we turned to our closest friend Zhanna Friske, who was next to her all this time, trying to save her:

Olga Orlova, friend of Zhanna Friske: “I’m in too much pain, I can’t talk”

— The funeral will take place on Thursday, I will announce the exact time and details later. Now I’m organizing a funeral, and I’m in so much pain that I can’t explain anything, sorry! - Olga could not hold back her tears...

Meanwhile, a growing number of celebrities are expressing condolences over the passing of Jeanne:

But... sometimes even the strongest can’t! You fought to the end! You're the best! You will always be an example for me, of course, and a standard of female beauty! Honey, we won't forget you!

Zhanna Friske's father announced the date and place of farewell to the singer

Farewell to singer Zhanna Friske, who passed away tonight, will take place tomorrow in Moscow at Crocus City Hall. The funeral is scheduled for June 18, the singer will be buried at the Nikolo-Arkhangelskoye cemetery. Her father Vladimir Friske spoke about this.

LifeNews for the first time publishes footage of the beginning of Friske’s treatment in Hamburg. Sorry it didn't help.

The channel has a video in which the singer and her family go to the clinic.

Exclusive footage from Hamburg appeared at the disposal of the editors 2-3 months before the first reports about Zhanna Friske’s illness appeared in the press. The video was filmed in October 2013, the year the singer and her family first crossed the threshold of one of the leading European clinics. A couple of months before, the singer stopped appearing in public and posting current photographs on social networks, but colleagues and fans thought that the young mother was recovering from childbirth and was raising her growing son.

At this time, no one except her closest friends and relatives knew about the singer’s problems. On January 15, 2014, the media published the first reports about the singer’s illness. On January 20, family and relatives confirmed in a statement on the singer’s official website that Zhanna was seriously ill.

After Hamburg, the singer's treatment continued at the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York. Zhanna was ready for any treatment methods, even experiments. Doctors reassure: radiation therapy should help. And indeed, the disease is susceptible. The long-awaited word is remission.

Soon, to continue rehabilitation, Friske and her family moved to the Baltic states. It seemed that she was on the mend: the singer began to regain her vision, partially lost due to the tumor, she noticeably lost weight, stood on her feet and could move around without a wheelchair. However, doctors warned that after radiation therapy, Zhanna may experience complications - post-radiation changes in the brain. And so it happened. The disease has returned. No treatment helped anymore.

Friske struggled with a brain tumor for almost two years, and for the last three months she no longer regained consciousness. Zhanna died in her house near Moscow on Monday, June 15, at 22:30. For a year and a half, she tried to defeat brain cancer - she was diagnosed with a terrible diagnosis in early 2014. However, as LifeNews learned, Zhanna Friske’s attending doctors said that she was brought to die at a cancer center in Moscow. Even then, Friske became blind and was in extremely serious condition. Doctors told investigators that the council refused Zhanna Friske treatment due to high risks.

The singer’s husband, Dmitry Shepelev, according to LifeNews, left Zhanna Friske two days before her death and went to Bulgaria, taking his son Plato with him. Doctors warned him that he might not see his wife alive, but Dmitry still flew abroad.

In the LifeNews studio, Otar Kushanashvili expressed condolences to the family of Zhanna Friske and paid tribute to Olga Orlova, the singer’s friend, who remained with her until the last minute. Otar Kushanashvili is sure that Zhanna always, even knowing about her incurable illness, remained the embodiment of love for life solely for the sake of her son Plato, her husband and family.

Moscow says goodbye to Zhanna Friske


A long line of fans of the singer formed near the Crocus City Hall concert hall, many of them holding flowers.

Farewell to singer Zhanna Friske, who died at the age of 41, is taking place in the Moscow Crocus City Hall concert hall.

The coffin was placed in the hall of the concert hall. There are vases with flowers and wreaths around the coffin. Music plays, and photographs and footage from the singer’s videos are shown on the screen. Jeanne's relatives are near the coffin.

Singers Olga Orlova, Anna Semenovich, Diana Gurtskaya, Ksenia Novikova, singers Dmitry Malikov, Igor Nikolaev, Sergey Lazarev, Mitya Fomin, trainer Edgard Zapashny and many others came to say goodbye to Zhanna Friske.

Hundreds of people have already said goodbye to the singer, they are coming in an endless stream. The tables in front of the coffin are littered with flowers. The farewell will last until 20.00.

About three thousand people came to say goodbye to Zhanna Friske


In Moscow, at least 3 thousand people came to say goodbye to singer Zhanna Friske. TASS reports this.

The famous Russian singer Zhanna Friske died on the night of June 16 at the age of 41 due to brain cancer.

Dmitry Shepelev: “I proposed to Zhanna. And we wanted to get married!”

>The popular TV presenter, the father of the singer’s child, told KP about the last days of the woman he loved.

“Zhanna remains an absolute, pure, unique happiness for me,” her common-law husband, the famous TV presenter Dmitry Shepelev, wrote in his blog after the death of Zhanna Friske.

For two years, Dima, together with Zhanna’s relatives, fought for her life. Alas, the miracle that everyone so wanted to believe in did not happen.

Dmitry Shepelev was not present at the farewell ceremony for Zhanna. At these moments, Dima was with their two-year-old son Plato in Bulgaria, where he left shortly before Zhanna left.

The Komsomolskaya Pravda website managed to talk with Dmitry when he flew to Moscow to say goodbye to the woman he loved and the mother of his son at the funeral.

“I was waiting for my father to arrive to look after Plato.”

— Dima, we bring you condolences from the journalists and readers of KP.

- Thank you. Thank you.

— Your fans are wondering why you weren’t at the farewell ceremony for Zhanna today?

“A few hours ago I was with our child in Bulgaria. And he waited for his grandfather, my father, to come to us at the first opportunity in order to keep an eye on Plato and not leave him alone with the nanny.

The child must be supervised. For us it is very important.

As soon as my father arrived, this happened several hours ago, I immediately

flew to Moscow. Yesterday there was a ceremony for Jeanne's fans. Public ceremony. Today it is much more intimate: liturgy, funeral service and burial. This morning I will be with my beloved woman.

— And they also discussed on the Internet why you flew to Bulgaria on the eve of Zhanna’s departure. I take it because of my son? So that Plato would not be present at his mother’s last moments?

“It was known a month ago that I would take the child to the sea.” Tickets were purchased and visas were issued. During this time we understood that anything could happen. But none of the doctors, neither in Russia, nor in Germany, nor in America, from those with whom I consulted, could say when trouble might happen. It was clear that Zhanna was in critical condition, but no one could predict anything.

This could go on for days, weeks, months. And, of course, no one made any plans. It's all in the family... Let me speak on behalf of the whole family. We agree on the main thing: the child should not suffer. And, if possible, the child should have a full summer. Therefore, we knew in advance that on the 14th, on Sunday, he would fly away to rest.

And you must understand, I spent these two years with Zhanna, without leaving... And I followed her everywhere she was. Because I knew that my loved one needed support. And the fact that this happened due to this, I will say, is nothing other than a monstrous coincidence of circumstances; there is no other way to call it. Of course, if I had a choice, I would want to be with her at these moments. The fact that this happened within 24 hours after we left with the child is nothing more than a coincidence. On the other hand, I am calm for my son and am very glad that all these tragic events are bypassing him. I don't think it's right for him to be there.

“You have to fight even if it’s a game with death”

— The trouble that came to your house is familiar to many. For example, my aunt also died from a similar disease. And there are many such tragedies in the families of KP readers. The question arises: is it really impossible to be cured in Russia, but only abroad there are these miraculous vaccines that can prolong the life of our loved ones for some period of time...

— Russian doctors do a great job. And first of all, I would like to thank the dozens of Russian doctors who were responsive to us. Many people helped us absolutely free of charge.

And they did a lot for our family. More than they should have.

Therefore, first of all, I must say words of gratitude. There are some circumstances that ordinary doctors cannot change. A much more serious question is what treatment is available in Russia...

And, believe me, the treatment that exists now can help a lot of people. But Russian doctors are not omnipotent. There are technologies that, unfortunately, are not available to Russia. For example, only in America. Or in Israel.

This is also no secret. That's why we face the circumstances we face. You can get treatment in Russia. The most important thing is to fight. From the very beginning to the very end. Even if it's a game with death, in my opinion.

— Yesterday there was a very warm farewell ceremony. And it seemed to many that Zhanna saw all the fans who came to say goodbye to her. It is difficult to talk about Zhanna in the past tense. Tell me, did she want to return to the stage? What plans did she have?

- You know, our son has always been a priority for us. This is undoubtedly the most important thing that happened in my life and hers. Therefore, the most important thing we talked about, the most important thing for us, is how we will raise our child. This is exactly what she dreamed about. And that’s exactly what she was talking about. I think that this is much stronger, much greater happiness than going on stage. Although, of course, performing made her happy, because she was born for this.

“The memory of a loved one is the strongest motivation”

- And you wanted to get married, as far as I understand...

- We discussed this. I proposed to her.

— In an interview with KP, you once said that sometimes it’s not you, but Zhanna who supports you and finds wise words. Did she say something about a possible departure or was the topic never brought up?

- No, we never discussed this.

— I know that you are now planning to open an information fund for people who, like Zhanna, are struggling with this serious diagnosis, brain cancer. Are you doing this in memory of Zhanna?

Zhanna Friske's husband: I will probably regret it for the rest of my life

Farewell to Zhanna Friske took place in Moscow on June 17
MOSCOW, June 18, 2015, 07:03 - REGNUM Dmitry Shepelev, the common-law husband of Zhanna Friske, told at the Burgas airport (Bulgaria) why he was not at Crocus City Hall, where a farewell to the singer took place on June 17.

According to him, he had to wait in Bulgaria for the arrival of his father, grandfather Plato, who was supposed to stay with the 2-year-old boy. After that, he was only able to get tickets for the evening flight. At the same time, he denied claims that even before departure he knew that Zhanna would die in the coming days: a trip to the sea with Plato was planned a month ago.

“I will probably regret for the rest of my life that this coincided. There can be no talk of any escape or the fact that I took the child from Zhanna,” Shepelev told Super.

According to Shepelev, on June 18 the most important events for the family and for him will take place: liturgy, funeral service, funeral.

Zhanna Friske died on the evening of June 15 at her parents' house in the Moscow region. The singer's father said that she had been in a coma for the last three months.

Red roses and a funeral cortege - Zhanna Friske was seen off on her last journey

Singer Zhanna Friske, who died at the age of 41 after a long illness, was buried on Thursday at the Nikolo-Arkhangelskoye cemetery in Balashikha, near Moscow.

A serious illness has changed the beautiful singer beyond recognition

A serious illness has changed the beautiful singer beyond recognition

For several weeks, Zhanna FRISKE underwent treatment at the Memorial Cancer Center. Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York. Having completed all the necessary procedures, the singer flew to Los Angeles. The day before, American paparazzi photographed the artist during a walk: Zhanna was sitting in a wheelchair, which was rolled down the street by her assistant.

It is known that the singer is courageously fighting a serious illness. Doctors gave the singer a disappointing diagnosis: an inoperable brain tumor. The singer herself refused the operation so as not to harm her child - when the artist found out about her illness, she was pregnant. And only after the birth of Plato, Zhanna completed the entire necessary course of procedures, including chemotherapy. Unfortunately, a fatal illness changed the beautiful singer beyond recognition. However, according to her loved ones, Zhanna is a real fighter: she never gives up and always finds the strength to go to the end.

While walking around Los Angeles, the artist was accompanied by two assistants. Until recently, Zhanna had two people close to her in New York: a friend and a common-law spouse. Every day they took Zhanna to the oncology center for procedures. However, Dmitry was recently forced to return to Moscow to film in the new season of the “Property of the Republic” program. Zhanna's treatment requires large expenses, and Shepelev needs to earn a living. To be closer to his son Plato, Dmitry temporarily settled with his parents Friske ().

“I learned about my daughter’s illness two months after the birth of my grandson,” Zhanna’s father, Vladimir Borisovich, told Express Gazeta. “My daughter began to have terrible headaches. I was one of the last to know about everything. Zhanna didn’t want to upset me, she said: “Daddy, I’m fine.” I understood everything only when I arrived in the States. Zhanna is a very strong person - I have never seen her cry in my life. Even when she was little, I would scold her, but she would grit her teeth and remain silent.

- Why wasn’t Zhanna’s personal gynecologist Semyon Tsinker in the know?

The daughter did not have time to tell him. She was taken by ambulance to the hospital, she was in a coma. - Vladimir Borisovich, is it still possible to have the operation, what do the doctors say?- We went through all Moscow specialized hospitals: from the Burdenko Neurosurgical Institute to the Blokhin Cancer Center. No one can guarantee that the daughter will not die in the event of surgery. Zhanna refused the operation, and this is her decision...()

Protecting the feelings of her parents, the singer did not tell them the main thing: she learned about the tumor during pregnancy, when the tumor could be removed. Why did Zhanna wait until the situation where the tumor could not be operated on? Because of the unborn child,” the artist’s close friend Tatyana barely holds back tears. - Doctors suggested a course of chemotherapy, but how could Zhannochka risk the health of her son, whom she had dreamed of for so many years?!

You should have seen her pregnant - it seemed that there was no happier person in the world. She talked about leaving the stage and planned to give birth to a second or third baby. But she didn’t even manage to nurse her son - after giving birth, she gave him to his parents. In January, Zhanna came to Moscow - despite the fact that she could no longer get up, she herself wanted to take the baby to her parents. It’s a pity that the son didn’t recognize his mother - Zhannochka has changed a lot. This winter the guys wanted to baptize Platosha, but, as far as I know, it didn’t work out.

Death of Friske. Details.

As you know, after all the tragic events, Dmitry Shepelev wrote a book about Zhanna Friske. For all fans, the book “Jeanne” is a must read. A very touching, sad book.

Death of Friske. Circumstances.

We deliberately omit questions regarding the nationwide collection of funds, Rusfond, Shepelev, the Kopylovs, Plato, the missing millions, all the litigation, squabbles, scandals, and all this vile dance on the bones that began after her death. If you need this, look elsewhere, you won't find it here.

Oddly enough, all this dirt seems to be aside from, in fact, Zhanna herself. In the memory of millions of people, Zhanna Friske remained radiant, cheerful and sweet. Woe to those who organized this Sabbath. Let's not be like them.

Zhanna felt the first symptoms of the disease soon after the birth of her son. She began to experience headaches, general weakness, and fainting. The singer was given a disappointing diagnosis - brain cancer. This was a truly terrible blow for Jeanne herself and for millions of fans.

It should be noted that Zhanna used every chance. The best doctors, the best clinics in Europe and America, the most advanced drugs and methods. In particular, a special cancer vaccine called “Abdiva” was used during the treatment, costing 200 thousand euros for 15 ampoules.

The last months of her life spent in Moscow, Zhanna was observed at the Moscow Oncology Center on Kashirka, where her treatment was carried out by the head of the department of chemotherapy and combined methods of treatment of malignant tumors, Mikhail Lichintser:

When she arrived in Russia, her illness had progressed greatly. They turned to us to administer drugs prescribed in the USA to her. It was, of course, impossible to cure, but her relatives insisted on it, so they brought her in once a week to administer medications. It was already the finish line.

Zhanna Friske

Unfortunately, the singer’s condition only worsened. Zhanna could no longer navigate in space and suffered all the side effects of chemotherapy and hormonal therapy. Her hair fell out, she gained excess weight, her legs gave out, and for the last two months Zhanna was completely unconscious. By the end of her life she was practically blind.

Olga Orlova:

She hasn't spoken for the last two months. For the last two months she has been dreaming all the time. I don’t know whether it’s a coma or what it’s called, but, in my opinion, she was conscious, she just didn’t say anything. She was asleep the whole time, but I think maybe I was crazy that she heard everything. Somewhere far away she understood, because we talked to her, tried to joke, I read in her ear the letters that came to her

Children of Zhanna Friske

Jeanne had one child:
