Biography

Poltava, Ukraine (1998 – present)

Andriy Mykhailovych Danylko (Ukrainian: Андрій Михайлович Данилко) (born 2 October 1973 in Poltava, Ukraine), better known as his drag character Verka Serduchka (Ukrainian: Вєрка Сердючка), is a Ukrainian comedian and pop and dance singer. In the role of Serduchka, he represented Ukraine in the Eurovision Song Contest 2007 and finished in second place. In his career Serduchka has sold over 600,000 records in Ukraine.

During school he was studying in the theater studio “Grotesk”. After graduation from school he tried to enter a music college and institute, but was rejected. He went to a professional technical college, where studied the profession of “foodstuffs cashier”. From 1991 to 1992 he worked as cashier in a shop, and did a few performances. In spring 1992, he demonstrated for the first time two short numbers: “Dining Room” and “Train Conductor”. The official date of birth for Verka Serduchka is 8th of March 1993, when “Train conductor” which portraits an ordinary Ukrainian woman working as conductor, was shown at the “Humourina” festival in Poltava. He tried to enter musical college again, but was rejected twice more, thus deciding to start a “performing career”, where he performed with his mini-theater, staging Verka Serduchka numbers and performing parodies on well-known Russian stars: Allegrova, Pugachova and Kazachenko.

In 1995 he finally entered estrada-circus college, but after studying just for just 2 years out of 5, he left and was accepted into a Institute of Culture.
