Ilya Glinnikov: the main “bachelor” of the 5th season of the scandalous television project
Ilya Glinnikov is single again! This good news, like a mantra, is repeated by thousands of the actor’s fans across the country. Many of them, hoping to please their idol, immediately went to the casting of the 5th season of the show “The Bachelor” as soon as they learned that their beloved Gleb Romanenko from “Interns” would become the main character of the show. But, as we know, only 25 of the best will receive “access to the body.” Of course, according to Ilya himself. Well, in the final the “main prize” will go to only one of them...
True, how seriously can this decision of Ilya Glinnikov be taken? As previous seasons of the show show, none of the participants in the show “The Bachelor” on TNT developed a serious relationship with the winners of the project. The first was the famous football player Evgeny Levchenko, who chose the fragile and vulnerable Olesya Ermakova. However, soon after the project the couple broke up. Although, on the eve of the main, final choice of a bachelor, Evgeniy stayed in Olesya’s hotel room all night. Without cameras and annoying TV show employees.

Today Evgeniy Levchenko is a happy husband and father of a baby born in the summer of 2016. The footballer reunited with his former lover, model Victoria Koblenko, and seems to be happily married.

The second season of “The Bachelor” caused even greater excitement among viewers of the project. And this is quite natural - after all, the new “bachelor” is a handsome man, a successful businessman and ex-husband of singer Anna Sedokova, Maxim Chernyavsky. It would seem that everything should have worked out perfectly for this guy with the modest, sincere, bright Masha Drigola. The couple actually dated for a long time, but still broke up.

The third season of “The Bachelor” was fun and enthusiastic. And all because this time the resident of “ComedyClub” Timur Batrutdinov went in search of the ideal woman. His choice came as a complete surprise to many - everyone saw the main favorite of the 3rd season, Galina Rzhaksenskaya, as the winner of the project. However, to the great surprise of the audience, Timur chose the intellectual Daria Kananukha. True, Batrutdinov failed to build a strong relationship with the girl. The couple broke up shortly after the project.

The next main character of the popular show was singer, actor and showman Alexey Vorobyov. The unpredictable handsome man actually made a “feint with his ears” in the final, not choosing any of the girls. And just recently it became known that Vorobyov’s newfound happiness was shattered... due to banal betrayal. The singer flew over the ocean to surprise his beloved, and she was in the arms of another... Maybe it was fate itself that took revenge on the star for treating the finalists of “The Bachelor” so cruelly?

It’s even scary to think what the eccentric and rich in surprises Ilya Glinnikov, the hero of the 5th season of the show “The Bachelor” on TNT, is capable of! He himself commented quite mysteriously on his participation in the project:
“To begin with, I went to the show to have fun, that is, to see how reality works, to figure out the girls, why they are here, to test myself - am I a man or where... But everything happened differently. The show became destiny. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves—it’s not finished yet.”
The actor boldly declares that he took the risk of changing the format of the popular reality show. If previously everything in “The Bachelor” was reduced to intimacy and every “adult” kiss of the bachelor with another contender for the heart of the main character raised the rating of the project to the skies, Glinnikov intends to turn the show “The Bachelor” into a kind of quest, which, however, will appeal to the audience no less.
“Since the project has such good goals, I decided to try it. You just need to get away from all the kissing and other vulgar moments and turn the show towards a quest, turn “The Bachelor” into a more ideological show, with some subtext and background. A man is the one who thinks with his upper head, not his lower head. But when you are surrounded by 25 girls, I would look at all of you in this situation. I'm just going crazy"
The “Interns” star also honestly admits that a serious relationship is one of the biggest fears in his life. Which he is determined to win with the help of the “Bachelor” project. We will find out very soon whether Glinnikov succeeded. As you know, the premiere of the 5th season of the show “The Bachelor” on TNT is very soon, but filming is in full swing. And who knows - maybe this ending will be happy for Ilya Glinnikov and one of the project participants?..
Biography of Ilya Glinnikov
The biography of Ilya Glinnikov is exactly what interests most of his fans. Well, let's not delay!
In the city of Novomoskovsk, Tula region, Ilya was born into a simple family. Glinnikov spoke little about his parents, but in one interview he mentioned that he grew up without a father, which is why he bears his mother’s surname. He was raised by his mother and stepfather. The boy grew up very active and inquisitive, studied well, and at the same time was involved in many sports, dancing (from the age of 3 he was fond of choreography!), was interested in music, and also wrote poetry. One of his poems on the theme of the Great Patriotic War received gold in a city competition. Parents predicted a career for Ilya as a great athlete, however, as we see now, sports did not captivate Ilya that much.
Ilya's father. The actor tried not to talk much about who this man was. However, according to Ilya himself, it is known that his father’s real name is Meskhi and that he once studied to become a neurosurgeon in Russia, but later he had to leave the family due to a serious conflict with the bosses of Ilya’s mother. Once the actor even announced that he intended to change his surname Glinnikov to the surname of his father, who died in 2006. Also his father had Georgian roots. It is thanks to this Georgian origin that Ilya can boast of her bright and charming appearance.
All his life Ilya dreamed of seeing his father, but, unfortunately, this was never destined to come true. The young man never forgot about his roots: he visited his father’s homeland more than once and always respected its traditions.
Mother - Tatyana Mikhailovna Glinnikova. Little is known about his mother either. She worked in a hospital, where she met Ilya’s future father. Mom always tried to support her son and hoped that he would become a swimmer.
Brother - Vladislav Glinnikov. Ilya is more than 9 years older than his brother, but the young people maintain unusually warm and friendly relations. It is known that Vladislav is currently studying to become a cameraman, and is also interested in photography, in which his older brother fully supports him and is sometimes not averse to participating in such filming.
After graduating from school, the future actor decided to get a specialized secondary education at the Novomoskovsk physical education college. But later the young man finally realized that professional sports was not what he wanted to do in life.
After this, Ilya decided to return to choreography. He was truly fascinated by breakdancing. Glinnikov managed to find equally talented dancers and create his own dance group, with which he won regional competitions and after a while received “silver”, but in the capital of the country at the All-Russian Championship.
In Moscow, Glinnikov was noticed by the management of the hip-hop dance group “Urbans” and invited to join them, to which the future actor agreed. However, their collaboration did not last long. Ilya managed to visit various events and film sets with the famous group, but conflicts with managers led to the fact that the guy had to leave the project. But he left there with a new dream - to become an actor.
Ilya Glinnikov tried to enter the Moscow Art Theater studio. But this did not bring any results, since even with his talents he could not pass the entrance exams. The guy did not despair and next time he already tried to enter GITIS. The extra year of preparation seemed to have played a role, and this time Glinnikov managed to show himself brilliantly and pass the competition to the workshop of Valery Garkalin.
Like most actors, Glinnikov began with small roles, including in the theater. While still studying at GITIS, he played in several productions: the musical “The Bremen Town Musicians” and even took part in the play “The Third Shift”, which received a nomination for the “Golden Mask”.
There are few actors who immediately received leading roles in films without outside help. Ilya, like many others, started with small supporting roles. He first starred in one of the episodes of the series “Club” in 2007. Then he found himself on the set of the film “First Love” by Yegor Druzhinin. The young guy became an ideal candidate for his, although not the main, but also important role. And the secret is simple: “First Love” is not just a film, but a musical film, where the actors had to dance a lot. And Glinnikov definitely knew how to do this.
After a series of successes, the young actor went abroad to learn all the intricacies of the craft at the Lee Strasberg and Jul-Art courses.
In 2009, Ilya starred in one of the episodes of the TV series “Univer”. But the first roles were still just a dream for the young student. He also played a minor role as a heartthrob in the film “Fog” while studying in his fourth year at GITIS.
Ilya Glinnikov: chronicles of personal life and not only on the actor’s Instagram
Ilya Glinnikov’s Instagram is full of his personal photos. And in almost every one there is an actor in person. Here you can see photos and videos of Glinnikov from the “Bachelor” project, and at the same time - photos of posters of his works and creative projects. For example, with actress Chulpan Khamatova, the star of “Interns,” trying to get rid of the stereotype of a sitcom actor, acts as a reader of the dramatic oratorio “Joan of Arc at the stake.”

Ilya Glinnikov also likes to post photos with his famous friends and colleagues on his Instagram page.

Either a resident of “ComedyClub” Le Havre, or everyone’s favorite actor Fyodor Dobronravov... In a word, Ilya Glinnikov is certainly not an outcast in his acting and television profession. He has many friends and acquaintances among celebrities. By the way, Ilya himself is in the photo with the Lomonosov Plan group for a reason: the actor starred in the guys’ video.

Ilya Glinnikov also hastens to share his passion for extreme sports with his followers on Instagram. These include fast riding on a Harley through Moscow at night, conquering the capital's skyscrapers and posing in the arms of a lioness.

The artist does not hide his extreme hobbies and speaks with pleasure on this topic in his interviews. Glinnikov once told how, because of his exorbitant love of extreme sports, he almost lost his life.
“... Almost died in Hawaii. We arrived at the coast where the biggest waves come. And they came 10 meters high... I caught one or two waves, rode, and then the wave tore off the board that was tied to my leg... The wave covered me, my ears were squeezed hard and there was darkness everywhere. Then another wave came, already under water, and I was flattened along the bottom, and at the bottom there was a reef. My hands are bleeding, and yet I stand on the reef, push off with my feet, and emerge. I barely have time to take a breath of air before I am sucked back in. Somehow I finally got out - covered in blood, my head was spinning..."
Off set
How are things going in the personal life of Ilya Glinnikov? He had a serious relationship with actress Aglaya Tarasova. Together they starred in the film “Interns.” However, they later broke up. Aglaya began dating Milos Bikovich. Ilya was having a hard time with the breakup. The actor even tried to commit suicide. But, having woken up in intensive care, the guy realized that he needed to move on.
And then there was participation in the television project “Bachelor”. After the show ended, he lived for some time with Ekaterina Nikulina. But it didn’t come to the wedding. They broke up due to excessive attention from journalists.
Ilya Glinnikov and Aglaya Tarasova: it was love
They are young, talented, famous. And one day they met on the set of the mega-popular television series “Interns.” Ilya Glinnikov and Aglaya Tarasova admit that the romance was not love at first sight. But at some point they managed to see in each other something more than just partners in the series. Ilya admitted that he gladly does crazy and romantic things for his beloved - for example, he can easily arrange a small celebration for her late at night. Simply because I wanted to see Aglaya and please her. And the girl was crazy about this attitude towards her.
Ilya Glinnikov and Aglaya Tarasova: still together, still happy
The young people were not shy about their feelings, and happily shared their happiness with their many fans on Instagram and other social networks. They traveled a lot together, and, of course, worked on the same projects. Ilya tried not to let Aglaya leave his side even one step. And she, being 10 years younger than her beloved man, was flexible and indulged all the whims and whims of Ilya. And they felt good, as they repeatedly said in their interviews in the press and on TV. Glinnikov admits that with Aglaya, by the way, the daughter of the famous actress Ksenia Rappaport, he was able to experience that same great and bright feeling of love. The happy faces of lovers at joint appearances, at film premieres and social parties literally glowed as soon as they looked into each other’s eyes. And this couple constantly held hands tightly, afraid to let go of each other even for a second.
“If I live with this feeling all my life, I will be the happiest dead person on this planet. Love lives in each of us, there is no need to look for it, the main thing is that when it comes knocking, do not be afraid, but rush in. The worst thing that can happen to you is that you will simply die, but it’s better to burn out than to fade away.”

But one day something happened that had to happen. One day the girl got tired of Glinnikov’s total control, and she decided to break off the relationship in which she felt cramped and in which she began to suffocate. In addition, Aglaya Tarasova’s new boyfriend was already looming on the horizon. Without having time to mourn her suddenly deceased feelings for Ilya, the girl met a new object of desire. It was the handsome Serbian actor Milos Bikovich, who is also a heartthrob. Among his latest passions is Russian-born supermodel Sasha Luss. Although, many fans of the couple hoped until the very end for a quick reconciliation of the lovers. After all, Ilya and Aglaya had previously made attempts to break off relations, but every time it all ended in a stormy and passionate reconciliation.

What about our hero? – Ilya Glinnikov was not at a loss and is now licking his emotional wounds on the 5th season of the show “The Bachelor” in the company of two dozen Russian beauties. This is not the first time for the actor to experience a bitter feeling of separation and disappointment. In one of his interviews, Glinnikov shared his secret. At the age of 17, having barely arrived in Moscow from a provincial town, the future actor fell madly in love... with a woman 8 years older than him. Five years of a serious relationship did not lead to anything: she needed marriage and a reliable man nearby, his career was important to him. But the actor does not like to talk about his first bitter love experience. However, as well as about the affair with Aglaya Tarasova, where everything, it would seem, was for show.
Their happiness was shattered, bringing only pain and disappointment
The actor was credited with another novel. Ilya Glinnikov and his girlfriend, although only from the series “Interns,” Kristina Asmus, would probably be a good couple in life. But today, as you know, Christina is happily married to actor and showman Garik Kharlamov. And they remained good friends with Ilya.

Height, weight, age. How old is Ilya Glinnikov
Ilya does not try to hide from his fans any basic details of his own life, so it will not be difficult to find out his height, weight, age. It’s quite easy to find out how old Ilya Glinnikov is. But even just looking at the actor, it is impossible not to notice the optimism of a young and cheerful guy in his smile. This is exactly the smile that at all times obscured the wrinkles of the past years and made the hearts of women beat faster.
Ilya Ilyich Glinnikov was born on September 19, 1984, and at the moment he is already 33 years old. Although it is believed that a man born under the sign of Virgo does not have the simplest character, this is more than compensated for by his wit, determination and directness. There is an opinion that Virgos are inveterate bachelors whose chosen one is work. And, unfortunately, Ilya is no exception, but more on that a little later.
Ilya Glinnikov: growth of love and career is not a hindrance!
Ilya Glinnikov is an actor with a very “non-actor” height - only 172 cm. Which for a man, compared to much taller film partners, is not very convenient. But the star of the TV series “Interns” admits that he has never had any complexes about his not-so-outstanding appearance. Therefore, the actor, without any embarrassment, poses with beautiful strangers, even if they are noticeably taller than Glinnikov.
Short stature does not in any way affect the successful acting career of Ilya Glinnikov
Moreover, his short stature played into the artist’s hands when he became seriously interested in dancing. Breakdancing has long been in first place for Ilya Glinnikov. His goal was to become a professional dancer, and he achieved it. To constantly improve his skills, the future “intern Romanenko” even moved to the capital from Novomoskovsk. There, the sociable young man not only managed to quickly find people who, like him, were passionate about dancing, but also met his first, truly great love and entered a theater university.
Ilya Glinnikov in his youth
The actor could marry his beloved girl (by the way, also a dancer), become the father of charming children and eventually open his own dance school. But fate decreed otherwise. Ilya Glinnikov, frightened by marriage and responsibility, which the actor himself admitted once in an interview, moved to live in a small dorm room at the theater institute, and when he began to receive his first decent money, he moved his mother and brother to Moscow. Well, then “Interns” happened, the role in which provided the artist with both work and stable income for several years to come.

But having started actively acting in films, the actor did not give up dancing. And from time to time he pleases his fans with complex dance tricks or simply funny dances performed by the author.
And once upon a time, in the early 2000s, the future TV star, and then a member of the famous dance group Urbans, even starred in a training video on breakdancing for beginners.
However, Ilya did not stay long in the breakdancing project, famous in the early 2000s. And not the least role in this was played by the difficult character of the star. But, as they say, everything that is not done is done for the better. This principle worked one hundred percent in the case of Ilya Glinnikov. The star does not regret one bit that he switched to acting and now he is not only rich and famous, but also loved by thousands of girls. Will the one and only one be found? – Will show season 5 of the “Bachelor” project on TNT.
Career
Ilya grew up and realized more and more that he liked dancing. He took part in almost all school music competitions.
After some time, Glinnikov organized his own dance group. The members of the group were hip-hoppers and break dancers. The guys participated in various competitions and almost always took first place.

After this project, Ilya takes part in the play “Third Shift”. Let us note that for this work, the talented artist was among the contenders for a national award as part of the Golden Mask festival.
After some time, Ilya moved to the USA, where he attended classes that helped him improve as an actor. After returning to the Russian Federation, Glinnikov took part in the musical play “The Bremen Town Musicians”, and also played a minor role in the situational comedy “Univer”.

Family of Ilya Glinnikov
At the moment, Ilya Glinnikov’s family consists of his parents and younger brother, who have always supported the actor.
In 2020, the young man decided to take part in the show “The Bachelor,” but his mother was against it. The “heartthrob” in real life turned out to be the complete opposite of his image. In the end, he named a girl with whom he thought he could build a relationship. It was Ekaterina Nikulina. It even began to seem to many that things were really heading towards a wedding. But history repeated itself, and Ilya and Natalya were also unable to start their own family.
Let’s hope that Ilya will still be able to find his love soon, which will undoubtedly make both the actor’s parents and loyal fans happy.
