The singer's appearance has undergone, albeit not obvious, changes. The images changed - from a curly dark-haired girl she suddenly turned into a dazzling blonde. There was also such a not very successful experiment - a blond bob clearly did not decorate a girl with delicate, but still Caucasian features! Finally, Katie chose the image of a glamorous diva, which perfectly matches her dark hair color, high cheekbones, a clear oval face, full lips and an elegant nose. As for the cheekbones and oval of the face, experts see no traces of correction, which cannot be said about the artist’s lips and nose.
Katie Topuria in childhood and youth
In 2005, the Russian charts exploded with the hit “Flying Away” from A-Studio. The listeners were captivated by the unusual voice of the new soloist, Katie Topuria. The girl's full name is Ketevan Andreevna Topuria. Keti was born on September 9, 1986 and grew up in Tbilisi. The singer herself considers herself Georgian, but among her relatives there are Poles and Italians.
Katie's family was far from music - her parents were engineers. Father - Andro Sanodze, did not work by profession and was known in the criminal sphere as a “thief in law”. In 2010, he was arrested and died in prison from heart failure. Evil tongues claimed that the cause of death was a drug overdose.
But law enforcement agencies rejected this version. According to another version, he was poisoned by representatives of the opposing group. But no matter how the girl’s father died, she always spoke well of him. Katie noted that she always had a warm, trusting relationship with her father.
Ketevan’s mother, Natalia Topuria, did not work by profession and did not study music either. The exception was her grandfather, who had musical talent, but did not study music professionally.
The girl was the only child in the family. Later in an interview, Katie admitted that she dreamed of a sister.
Although this dream of hers did not come true, little Ketevan was not bored, since her mother did not work and devoted all her time to raising her daughter.
In childhood and adolescence, the future soloist of A-Studio studied at a fashion modeling school, sports, foreign languages, and dancing.
Interesting Facts
- The singer’s natural hair color is dark blond, but at the beginning of her career she often experimented and appeared as a blonde, brunette, and redhead. Then Topuria began to use very extravagant multi-colored hairstyles for performances, and once even braided dreadlocks.
- Katie suffered the death of her father in 2010, accompanied by various comments in the press, very painfully and even postponed her planned wedding for almost three years.
- The singer admits that she manages to maintain a beautiful figure thanks to genetics. Only once did she gain more than twenty extra pounds - during pregnancy. Topuria managed to gain a comfortable physical shape with the help of a protein diet and giving up sweets and starchy foods.
- In Katie's performance, many famous songs took on a new sound. She demonstrated her vocal abilities on Avtoradio live broadcasts, performing hits “Just like everyone else,” “Here it is, love,” as well as songs in her native language, including “Chito Gvrito” from the famous film “Mimino.”
- The singer is not a fan of tattoos, but she still has several tattoos on her body that are significant to her: a treble clef and notes near her right ear, an arrow on her right hand, an inscription on her wrist. But Katie does not reveal the meaning of the tattoos.
- Topuria created the KETIone brand at the request of friends who liked the simplicity, conciseness and comfort of the clothes created by Keti. Once a girl was accused of complete similarity of her clothes with things sold on Aliexpress, but the artist assured that her collections had nothing in common with simply similar models.
- Topuria informed fans about her second pregnancy in a very original way: she appeared with a rounded belly and a revealing outfit in the video for the song “C’est la vie.”
What didn't you like about your appearance?
Katie Topuria, both before and after plastic surgery, is sensitive to her appearance. Although the girl openly said that she had rhinoplasty and did not change anything else, skeptical fans and haters claim that not only her nose has changed.
For example, they believe that Katie has corrected the shape of her breasts - in the latest photos, the bust looks more beautiful and fuller, and this is not only due to special underwear and a special cut of clothes, as the singer claims. To prove that they are right, attentive fans and haters note that, compared to the old photos, Katie has noticeably lost weight, but her breasts have remained just as lush, although they should also have lost weight.
Excess weight is another point that did not suit the girl, and she successfully got rid of it.
The shape of her nose and breasts spoiled Katie’s appearance, and nature is to blame for this. But there were experiments in the girl’s life for which only she was to blame. For example, an ultra-fashionable bob and bright blonde turned out to be unsuitable for a girl with Caucasian roots. Topuria later admitted that this was a failed experiment in an interview. But most of all, Katie loves experimenting with clothes.
There is not another singer on the Russian stage who can boast such an impressive wardrobe of the most unusual and revealing things, from fur boots with a summer dress to an orange leather suit with cutouts on the legs.
Not all of these images can be called successful, and the girl herself realized this, since the singer’s latest images inspire, and do not shock, fans and stylists.
How my career began
Despite the fact that Katie Topuria, before and after plastic surgery, was interested in sports, dancing and was a model at a fashion modeling school for 4 years, music occupied a special place in her life, which she began to study at the insistence of her neighbor, a music teacher. Izo - that was the name of the neighbor - at first she herself was engaged in Ketevan’s musical education, but later the girl was enrolled in the music school named after Noga Sudradze.
Studying at school soon bore fruit - at the age of 12, Katie received her first award at the Sea of Friendship competition. Then the girl definitely decided on her future profession, although before that she dreamed of becoming a midwife. Two years later, at 14, she received the Grand Prix of the international song festival “Path to the Stars”.
After completing her studies at the music school, Katie Topuria entered the music school, which she graduated in 2003 as a vocal teacher. But this is not the singer’s only education - in the same year she entered the university in the field of Psychology, but due to her busy work schedule she did not complete her studies.
Topuria’s career as a singer began in Georgia - there she recorded two albums and filmed several video clips, gave solo concerts and earned, albeit small, but decent money for Georgia. When the opportunity to move to Moscow came up, she agreed without hesitation, since she had already done everything she could do in her homeland.
"A-studio"
Since childhood, Katie has been a fan of the group “A-Studio”, adored “Julia”, “Unloved” and other hits of the legendary group.
But she could not even imagine that fate would lead her to the group as a soloist. One day, producer Nato Dumbadze, having learned that the group was looking for a new vocalist after the departure of Polina Griffis, invited the musicians to listen to the disc of the then little-known Georgian singer Keti Topuria in Russia. Baygali Serkebaev, the leader of the group, recalled that they became interested in the unusual timbre of the voice and the originality of the young artist and, while touring in Tbilisi, decided to meet with her.

The girl said the following about this meeting:
We met in a small cozy restaurant. Baigali was sitting next to me, they brought us Turkish coffee and I said: “And I can tell fortunes using coffee grounds!” I was joking, of course, because I had never told fortunes in my life. Baygali guessed my plan and wrote in sms several facts from Zhenin’s (concert director Evgeniy Seleznev - editor’s note Uznayvse.ru) life that I had no way of knowing - for example, that he has a daughter, a wife, how their names are other secrets. And he put the phone next to me. I looked at him and read. You should have seen how Zhenya’s face gradually became white!
When the director asked Katie to go into another room to ask her to tell more about his wife, Topuria realized that there was no point in joking anymore and said a lot of good things about the woman, which, by the way, she was not mistaken about.
Evgeniy found out about the prank much later, when Katie had firmly established herself as the lead singer of the group. Despite the fact that the singer was 17, the same age as the famous group, she quickly won sympathy and became a true adornment of A'STUDIO. Having moved with her family to Moscow, Topuria immediately recorded her first joint album with the group, “Flying Away” (2005).
A'Studio – I'm Flying Away Stylish and light music, fashionable sound and the singer's bright performance made “Night Girlfriend”, the compositions “Flying Away” and “You” hits. The “Song of the Year” prize was received by the group from the hands of Alla Pugacheva in 2005, and the video of the same name with the disc was in hot rotation on MTV and Muz-TV. Based on the results of TV viewer voting, the song “Flying Away” won two “Golden Gramophones” and won the “Best Ringtone” nomination at the MTV Awards.

At the end of July 2006, Keti and the group became a guest of the Jurmala festival “New Wave”, where she sang the song “Fiddler on the Roof” for Raymond Pauls, as the hero of the day. But the summer of this year ended tragically for all members of A-studio. The band's guitarist and composer Baglan Sadvakasov died in a car accident in the center of Moscow.
In 2006, the composition of the group changed again - this time due to tragedy
His seventeen-year-old son Tamerlan took his place in the group, with whom Topuria soon recorded the video “I Still Love...”. The team performed the same composition at the “Song of the Year”. A year later, Tamerlan left to study in England, and Fedor Dosumov (Federico) became A'STUDIO's guitarist instead. A'Studio – I still love In 2007, the presentation of the new album of the group “905” took place. Topuria experimented with styles. In addition to the usual dance and pop music, compositions in the style of orient (“Heart between two fires”) and r’n’b (“Love covers”) were performed.

A year later, the singer’s repertoire included the rock ballads “Angel”, “Why?”, and then Topuria performed the pop-rock song “Running to You”. The presentation of the new album was attended by famous artists, including Diva, Valery Meladze, Anita Tsoi and many other representatives of show business.
Keti Topuria in the late 2000s
In the fall of the same year, Keti performed for the first time on the stage of the Kremlin Palace - in the Total show, together with the former vocalists of the group Batyrkhan Shukenov and Polina Griffis. A surprise for those present was a Georgian folk song performed by Topuria to the accompaniment of a piano, at which Serkebaev was sitting. Keti Topuria. Lessons of Georgian The artist continued to delight her fans with new compositions and covers of other people’s hits. So, in 2014, at the Sky Light, Katie performed Yuri Shatunov’s hit “White Roses” and recorded a cover of Barbra Streisand’s popular song “Women in love.” In Topuria’s interpretation, the composition was called “If I’m in Love” and sounded in Russian. A'Studio – Woman In Love The audience warmly received the cover “Just like everyone else” of Alla Pugacheva’s composition “Song about me”. In addition, the singer never tired of surprising fans with unusual stage looks, fantastic dresses and outfits.
In the mid-2010s, the singer radically changed her image
In 2022, Keti and the group created a video for the song “Only with You,” about the romantic love of a young man and a girl, employees of the Arctic station. To film the video, the singer went to Norway.

In the same year, the group celebrated its thirtieth anniversary of creative activity, and the singer recorded the disc “Forgive me, my love” together with Emin Agalarov. Their composition “If you are near” became a hit, and their duet was recognized as the best at the Muz-TV awards. A'Studio and Emin Agalarov - If you are nearby Then A'STUDIO, together with the soloist, performed at the creative evening of Philip Kirkorov, held as part of the New Wave festival. The song “Atlantis” was performed by Topuria.

In 2022, Katie again amazed the audience with her outfit at the international music festival “Heat”. Her lace dress, decorated with feathers, was discussed longer than the artist’s performance on stage.

In the same year, a new video for the Chameleons group was released, directed by Mikel Diaz. A year later, Topuria took part in the creation of the videos “Island” and “C’est la vie”. “Island,” the group’s first animated video, won the award in the “Socially Significant Video” category at the tenth anniversary RU.TV awards in 2022.
When success came
Although Katie was famous in her homeland, in Georgia, real success came to her after she became the soloist of A-Studio and performed the hit “I’m Flying Away.” The song instantly took the leading position.
The group was already popular not only in Russia, but also in the CIS, Europe and America. Before Katie joined, Polina Griffiths was the soloist in the group and the musicians toured all over the world.
In 2004, their song “SOS” became a hit that was played in all the fashionable clubs in the world, and the video was included in the rotation of leading music channels. In 2005, Pauline Griffiths left the group and began a solo career.
At the same time, A-Studio performed in Tbilisi and Nato Dumbadze, the producer with whom Katie Topuria worked, proposed a girl to replace Polina, who left the group. The group members agreed to listen to the girl and from that time the musicians began collaborating with the girl from Tbilisi.
The group’s first joint work, “I’m Flying Away,” won the hearts of loyal fans and won new ones. Since then, A-Studio has recorded 4 albums. Almost all compositions are performed by Katie.
Among the compositions there are many duets with famous Russian and foreign pop performers. Among the brightest are “Heart to Heart” with Dirty Rotten Scoundrels and “If You’re Near” with Emin Agalarov.
Biography of Keti Topuria

Rhinoplasty
Katie is open about getting her nose done. The operation was performed for medical reasons, since Katie’s septum was deviated as a result of an unsuccessful fall on the asphalt.
She prevented the girl from breathing normally. Only plastic surgery could correct the situation. Katie Topuria later admitted that the situation remained the same as before the operation, and after that she had to go under the surgeon’s knife again.
What does she look like now
Now the singer looks simply stunning: neat nose, plump lips, chiseled cheekbones. It is clear that without a cosmetologist she would not have been able to achieve such a result, but why not, if there is an opportunity?
Plus, Katie is in an interesting position right now. I must say that pregnancy suits her.

Photos before and after plastic surgery
One of the responsibilities of stars is to look perfect. Katie is one of those who strives to live up to her star status one hundred percent. For example, she had rhinoplasty and after that her appearance really changed for the better.
Latest photo of Katie Topuria before and after nose surgery and other operations
But some users, looking at photos of Katie Topuria before and after plastic surgery, note that the surgeon’s intervention did not end with one rhinoplasty.
Bust
According to some bloggers, Katie Topuria has had her breasts enlarged. This controversial claim is very difficult to refute or confirm, especially based only on photographs. The singer herself denies using this procedure.
The different breast sizes in the pictures are most likely caused by fluctuations in the singer's weight. Breast surgery might be needed after childbirth and breastfeeding, not to increase size, but to restore shape.
After analyzing the photographs, the following conclusions can be drawn:
- The singer had a nose job twice.
- Actively uses fillers.
- Constantly works to maintain youthful skin.
- Tries to be a sculptor of his body without abusing plastic surgery.
The example of Katie Topuria perfectly shows that any woman is beautiful. The main thing is to go towards your goal and know exactly why you need it.
Figure, body parameters
Katie has an excellent figure - with a height of 168 cm, her weight does not exceed 61–62 kg. And this is not surprising - since childhood, the girl led an active lifestyle and tried to eat only healthy food. In addition, Katie inherited her appearance from her mother - Natalia Topuria, despite her age, retained her excellent figure and beauty.
But Katie’s figure changed after moving to Moscow, when touring and studio recordings of new songs and albums did not leave time for normal food and she had to eat fast food. Hamburgers, French fries, sweets and other junk foods have left a mark on your hips and waist.
I had to urgently pull myself together. Katie listened to the advice of professional nutritionists and gave up baked goods, chocolate, potatoes, mayonnaise and any fried foods. The girl replaced all the junk food with healthy food, high in fiber and protein - fruits, vegetables, poultry and lean meat. Katie also tries to drink at least 2 liters of water a day at regular intervals.
Yoga classes, massages and exercise on a treadmill and exercise bike came to the rescue. A year after classes, Katie became the owner of a figure with ideal parameters.
These healthy habits helped me quickly get back into shape after the birth of baby Livi. In addition to yoga and massage, skiing helps maintain an ideal figure. The girl admits that one of the mandatory points of the winter entertainment program is a trip to Switzerland or Andorra.

How to care for your skin
It’s worth saying a few words about the singer’s beauty secrets and skin care methods. The very first is healthy food and water. The second is avoiding tanning. Despite the fact that Katie has been an ardent fan of chocolate-colored skin all her life and even installed a solarium at home, she refused sunbathing, which adversely affects the beauty and youth of her skin.
The third secret is the individual selection of skin care products. For example, Katie notes that not all creams are suitable for her. But she found a way out - the girl uses creams prepared by her personal cosmetologist according to a special recipe specifically for her skin type.
In the future, Katie is going, if necessary, to take advantage of the achievements of modern cosmetology - mesotherapy, Botox and other similar services to preserve youth.
According to the singer, the main thing is to find a good specialist and not overdo it with the procedures.
Katie Topuria after giving birth
In 2013, on September 9, Katie got married. The girl's chosen one was Lev Geykhman. In 2015, on June 15, in California, they became the parents of baby Olivia, affectionately called Livi.
After the birth of her daughter, Katie actively shared photos on social networks, including photos in a swimsuit on the ocean coast. Numerous fans were keenly interested in how Katie managed to lose weight after giving birth.
The secret turned out to be simple - a healthy diet, at least 2 liters of water a day and a massage, which toned the body and helped to avoid cellulite.
With the birth of their daughter, the Geykhman-Topuria family did not become stronger. In September 2022, Katie, in a comment to a photo of Lev and Olivia, admitted that she and her husband had not been together for a long time.
This was also confirmed by Natalia Topuria, who noted that because of Geykhman’s business, the couple lived separately and saw each other once every 2-3 months.
Soon rumors appeared that Katie was dating Alexei Dolmatov, known as rapper Guf. Alexey denied the rumors, but attentive fans noted that in one of the live broadcasts on social networks they were sitting in different rooms of the same house owned by Guf. The house is located in Aprelevka, in the Moscow region. Guf’s neighbor Svetlana confirmed that the couple were together.
In addition, Keti introduced Alexey to her family and the managers of the capital’s cafe of Georgian cuisine “Khachapuri” spoke about their warm feelings for each other. Workers note that both behave like lovers. Alexey Dolmatov was also married, but in 2016 he officially divorced his wife Aiza Anokhina.
Personal life
Journalists and fans of “A-Studio” began to show increased interest in Keti Topuria since the new soloist joined the popular group. Fans were interested in both the biographical details and the physical parameters of the beauty with a model appearance. Katie has something to be proud of - with a height of 170 cm, she weighs 60 kg.
It seems that the only thing the star was unhappy with was her nose: it seemed too large to her, so Katie resorted to rhinoplasty. But the beauty herself claims that plastic surgery was a necessary measure. She underwent surgery only because she had a deviated nasal septum, which made it difficult to breathe.
Katie, as a tattoo lover, has a couple of images on her body that have a special meaning for her. A treble clef and music notes are depicted behind the right ear, and a stylish and laconic arrow adorns the right hand.
Now the artist looks flawless. She uses the services of professional cosmetologists and makeup artists to keep her facial skin in perfect condition. This can be judged by the rare photos without makeup that appear on Katie’s Instagram page.

Keti Topuria without makeup
As for Topuria’s personal life, the paparazzi have been closely following her events since 2005. The girl tried to hide romantic meetings, but journalists from yellow publications specializing in hot news from show business representatives managed to “track down” her companions, who fell under the category of boyfriends.
In 2010, it became known that Keti was having an affair with Moscow businessman Lev Geykhman, whom she met through mutual friends.
When this information appeared in the press, the chosen one of the popular singer stopped hiding and began to accompany her at creative events and social evenings. In September 2013, the lovers registered their marriage.
In 2014, the media learned that Topuria was pregnant. In early May, she took maternity leave and moved to America. In June 2015, Katie gave birth to a daughter, Olivia, at a Los Angeles clinic.

Keti Topuria and her daughter
In mid-2016, a scandal broke out: rumors appeared about an alleged romantic relationship between Keti Topuria and rapper Guf. They say that a spark jumped between the couple during the joint filming of a video called “Far.”
In the VIP party and social networks they started talking loudly about the fact that the wife was cheating on her husband, but was carefully hiding it. Katie and Guf had to publicly deny the rumors, while Topuria stated that, contrary to the gossip, she did not divorce Lev, and she only had friendly relations with the rapper.
However, after some time it became clear that there was a split in the star’s family. Topuria confirmed the fact of separation from her husband. The singer admitted that she has not lived with Geykhman for a long time, but at the same time they are trying to maintain friendly relations for the sake of their daughter. In 2022, reports appeared about the official divorce of the spouses.
In the fall of 2018, Keti Topuria and Alexey Dolmatov officially confirmed rumors of an affair. They introduced children from previous marriages - son Sam and daughter Olivia. An intriguing photo appeared on the singer’s Instagram page, in which she appeared in a frame with a stroller for newborn twins.

Keti Topuria and Lev Dengov
Subscribers suggested that the artist was in the early stages of pregnancy. Guf himself, who previously had problems with drugs, told reporters that he had started a new life, opened his own branded clothing store and met the love of his life.
Both musicians did not hide their feelings for each other, regularly posting joint photos from their vacation on Instagram, including those where Katie was in a swimsuit and Alexey was in beach shorts. On her lover’s birthday, Topuria published a photo with Guf, signing it with an unambiguous phrase.
In the fall of 2022, the Internet was blown up by the news that Katie had broken up with Guf. Everyone believed that the reason for this was the rapper’s infidelity with a young girl named Yana, who, after a night with Alexei, began going on television programs and talking about her relationship with the artist. According to the girl, he promised to break up with Katie, gave her gifts and complained about the singer. Dolmatov claimed that there was a fleeting connection for which he paid, but Yana simply began to blackmail him.
Keti Topuria and Guf are together again?
