Alex Sparrow

Russian actor, singer, musician and winner of Russian "X-factor" and "Dancing with the stars" is Russia's rising star. His skills have brought him to the point of signing a contract with world famous music producer - RedOne - with major hits for Lady Gaga, Enrique Iglesias, Usher, JLo and many others on his repertoire. RedOne's new star will be presented to the European audience at the Eurovision Song Contest 2011, representing Russia. Born into a large family in the city of Tula - Alexey was a child prodigy; winning every singing and dancing competition he ever entered. Though from a very poor family and required to work hard from a very young age; his parents believed in his talent and made every effort to enable Alexey's music studies. Little Alex loved music as much as soccer, but his music career got the upper hand after winning numerous Russian and international music contests as accordionist.
