TV viewers were quite puzzled by the finale of the 4th season of the TV show “The Bachelor” on the TNT channel with the participation of Alexey Vorobyov, whose video “Crazy” was able to collect about 80 million views on YouTube. The bachelor did not choose any of the contenders for his hand and heart.
As it turned out, last spring, when “The Bachelor” was broadcast, Vorobyov, as a director, was filming the “Letter” video in Los Angeles for the aspiring singer Maria Pankova, who took the pseudonym Maria Mia. And, judging by her confessions on Instagram and their photos together, she clearly wanted to play a much larger role in Alexei’s life than just the customer of the next video.
Maria Pankova signed one of the joint photos with Vorobyov: “How nice it is to find yourself in a person. Simplicity and humor!!! I hope, in addition to work processes, we will have time to relax and thereby get to know each other better.”
Perhaps because of Maria, Alexei Vorobyov lost interest in the participants of the show “The Bachelor”. According to colleagues, it was obvious that Maria was interested in Alexey not only as a work colleague, but also had her own personal interest.
According to Los Angeles producer Tasha Chizhevskaya, who worked with Vorobyov on the set of “Letters” and several other videos, Maria tried in every possible way to attract his attention and touch him. In general, she tried to please Alexey as a woman.
At first, Lesha reciprocated her feelings. How far their relationship went is unknown. But in the midst of filming, Alexey learned that Maria had another man who was very influential and rich.
It was he who paid for the shooting of the video and everything else. Having learned about the existence of another man, Alexey was simply amazed. For Lesha this was an unacceptable situation. If Maria herself admitted to him that she has another man, but she fell in love with Alexei and wants to stay with him. But this did not happen, and Vorobiev established only a working relationship with Pankova.
However, Maria was not satisfied with this. She began to insist that everyone was lying about her, and that she did not have any rich patron, and that her dad allegedly paid for the video. She even asked her mother to call from Moscow and confirm this. She wanted to convince Lesha to continue the relationship with her.
At the end of filming, Maria was supposed to fly to Moscow. But she changed her tickets and rented an apartment. And for another whole week she tormented the entire film crew with her antics. She drank a lot and threw tantrums.
She threatened that she would cut her veins, hoping in this way to influence Alexei. However, his blackmail was unsuccessful. Colleagues from the film crew tried to calm her down and send her to Moscow as soon as possible.
According to rumors, Pankova’s secret sponsor is the 49-year-old co-owner of the Ural Mining and Metallurgical Company Andrei Bokarev, who ranks 79th in the ranking of the richest businessmen in Russia according to Forbes magazine.
Allegedly, it is for this reason that Maria’s songs are in rotation on New Radio, which belongs to Bokarev along with other partners.
Now, Maria refuses to discuss her personal life, and especially her affair with Alexei Vorobyov.

Biography
The spectacular and talented MIA (Maria Pankova) was born on March 11 in Moscow. Like many creative people, Mia preferred her own path to classical education. Having received a specialty as a costume designer, Mia was finally convinced that her calling was music, and completely devoted herself to creativity.
Mia admits that she always dreamed of performing on stage and was preparing for this from her early youth: she played episodic roles in films and TV series, sang folk and popular songs in youth groups, worked on the set as a casting manager and even managed to try herself as a sound engineer, and quite successfully.
Following her dream, Mia gained invaluable experience that helps her even now. Rarely is an artist so thoroughly acquainted with the peculiarities of stage performance, working with sound, and the “other side” of the organizational process. Mia is an excellent example of a singer of the new generation: educated, purposeful, talented, Mia has a great sense of modern musical trends and has impressive vocal abilities and a deep inner world.
Mia can easily light a fire in any audience. Her songs are strong, filled with meaning, in no way inferior to Western hits of the modern pop scene. The owner of an expressive voice, rich in overtones, the singer wins over listeners, enveloping them in warm, vibrating energy.
In her songs, Mia expresses genuine emotions, telling heartfelt personal stories with undisguised tenderness.
Singer Alexey Vorobyov broke up with the aspiring singer Mia (Maria Pankova), with whom he started an office romance.
Most recently, Alexey Vorobyov acted as the director of a video clip for the young singer Mia. As assistant line producer Tasha Chizhevskaya said, the relationship between them did not end during the filming process.
She noticed that the young people were very supportive of each other, and Mia tried in every possible way to show signs of sympathy. But everything changed as soon as Vorobyov found out that the singer had a wealthy patron who paid for the filming of the video and was sponsoring her.
As Chizhevskaya noted, for Alexei, a strange girl is the same as dead, and he broke off non-work contacts with her.
After this, Maria Pankova began to behave inappropriately, asking her mother to call and confirm that her father was paying for the girl’s promotion, and introduced the entire film crew into the process of regaining Vorobyov’s sympathy.
In addition, she stayed in the city where the video was filmed for another week and drank alcohol strong alcohol and threatened to commit suicide. Alexey did not react to the blackmail and also does not make contact.
“However, Maria did not calm down and arranged something unimaginable - some kind of madhouse mixed with a kindergarten. And she involved the entire film crew in this, from lighting crews to producers.
She began to assure us that her ill-wishers were lying about her, to whom she did not return love, she did not have any rich patron, and her dad allegedly paid for the video.
I forced my mother to call from Moscow and confirm this. She wanted us to influence Lesha and convince him to continue the relationship with her.
At the end of filming, Maria was supposed to fly to Moscow. But she changed her plane tickets. She asked me to rent an apartment for her. And for another whole week she tormented us with her antics.
She got drunk and became hysterical. She demanded that they call her an ambulance to save her from a nervous breakdown. She screamed that she would cut her veins.
Apparently, she hoped to blackmail Lesha in this way. She thought that he would find out about this and come running to her. But Lesha did not fall for her blackmail. And the ambulance arrived and left. Nothing life-threatening was found on her. This is not their profile when everything is not right in the head,” Express Gazeta quotes Chizhevskaya.
The entire film crew suffered with the scandalous artist. “In principle, we didn’t have to mess with her either. Our work together on the set ended. And everyone began their own lives.
But we are used to accompanying our customers from start to finish and could not leave Maria alone in a foreign country.
She didn’t even speak Russian fluently. Declined words that do not decline. For example, the name of the Sviblovo district. “This is me ON Sviblov,” she commented on her photos. And Maria didn’t even know a single word in English. We tried to calm her down and send her to Moscow as soon as possible.
You can't imagine how happy it was when she finally left. We had to shoot videos for different customers. But none of them behaved so disgracefully..." Chizhevskaya completed her story.
Many consider Pankova’s secret patron to be the 49-year-old co-owner of the Ural Mining and Metallurgical Company, Transmashholding and Kuzbassrazrezugol, Andrei Bokarev, who, with a fortune of $950 million, occupies 79th place in the ranking of the richest businessmen in Russia by Forbes magazine.
They say that this is why Maria’s songs are played mainly on New Radio, which is owned by Bokarev on shares with business partners Igor Kudryashkin and Andrei Kozitsyn.

Smiling girl named Maria Mia everyone knows it for different reasons.
Someone loves Maria as a singer, someone recognizes her as a friend of Alexei Vorobyov, and someone follows the artist’s story about how she is still undergoing chemotherapy courses due to a diagnosis of lymphoma.
Maria nevertheless defeated the terrible illness and celebrated this event with the release of a new large-scale video “Until the Morning”.
A fantastic video from the new but already successful artist Maria Mia literally burst onto the Internet at the speed of a spaceship and Russian show business. After the successful releases of two previous works, “The Letter” (dir. Alexey Vorobyov) and “Not Yours” (dir. Daria Balinova), Maria Mia continued her creative development already at a higher level, because the “Until the Morning” video can hardly be called an ordinary music video.
"Until the Morning" is more of a short fantasy film with an ironic script, colorful characters and, of course, highly professional directorial and camera work (director - A. Figurov, cameraman - Yu. Kokoshkin). The first day of filming took place at the Airport, and it is from the words of the pilot that the mysterious story begins: “be careful, solar flares can lead to anomalous phenomena”: “It was the first time in our lives that we filmed at the airport, and I think that none of the artists had ever done this before , we are kind of pioneers"
Yaroslav Stepurko, producer of Maria Mia's video, comments.
“The shooting along the highway was done using Russian Arm equipment, thanks to which we enjoyed the dynamics and speed of all parts of Fast and the Furious. Of course, this is far from clip equipment, but Maria and I decided to experiment and got an amazing picture.”
Anya Figurova, screenwriter and second director of the video, comments.
As the most colorful characters in the second half of the clip, we see not only Maria’s friends, but also such personalities as Wolverine, Daenerys, the frightening Joker and even...Spider-Man. Also in the video was the participation of philanthropist and model, founder of the Animal Cult foundation Ruslan Narciss as a zombie bartender, and Dino MC played one of Maria’s “friends”.
“It was very interesting for us as a directing group to work on this project, the most important thing is that Maria and I are on the same wavelength and we have absolutely crazy ideas, it’s very important when your creativity is so supported by the artist, filming always takes place on a positive note and we hope for further cooperation in the future. In this video we had many interesting characters, in particular there was a raccoon and we got everything we wanted from him"
Alexey Figurov, director of the video, comments.
The author of the text and composer of the track “Until the Morning” is Maria herself. Perhaps the most important nuance in the filming of the video is the fact that Maria, despite chemotherapy and fighting cancer over the past six months, heroically withstood two days of filming and at the same time managed to look amazing on camera:
“The track “Until the Morning” is very personal, because I wrote it myself, as well as the script for the video. To some extent, I would call it fateful, because after filming I flew to Munich for the last chemotherapy and examination and it turned out that I had tumors I'm gone, which means the six-month battle with cancer has come to an end. I would like to wish all my viewers and fans to never give up, to move forward with their heads held confidently, because everything is in our hands and everything depends solely on our attitude. I wish everyone a great viewing, positive and always only rainbows after the rain!”
Maria Mia shares her emotions.
