On February 2, 1985, in the city of Slantsy, an incredibly sweet girl and talented performer Julia Mikhalchik was born. Parents, Jeanne and Sergey, already in early childhood noticed their daughter's musical talent, so they tried hard to develop the abilities of little Julia.
Childhood and music school
Already at the age of 6, Julia went to first grade and simultaneously entered a music school, choosing to play the piano. Immediately, the future singer begins to participate in all possible contests, performing solo numbers, and already in 1996 she took part in the Samantha children's show, and then became one of the young vocalists of the Radio and TV-5 Channel Choir. Despite the fact that the piano was easy for Julia, she took part in competitions only as a vocalist. Singing has become not only a hobby, but also a serious goal in the life of a girl. So, in 1999, Yulia Mikhalchik became one of the winners of the “Voiced Voices” contest, and the next year she won a prize in the international competition “Amber Star”, held in Jurmala.
Contests and the first team
In 2001, Julia continues to compete and takes place in the festival "Young Petersburg", as well as in the contest "Voices of the World". The singer won the first Grand Prix at the contest “Idols of the 21st Century”, which served as an impetus for a new stage in the career of the performer.
Numerous performances at the competitions nevertheless paid off, and in 2002, in one of the St. Petersburg clubs where the next performance was held, Julia Mikhalchik met Sergey Kokay, the founder of the vocal project "Korone". Sergei gladly accepts the young singer in the team, and Julia writes several of her own compositions, thus gaining valuable experience of the singer's professional work.
Student Years and Star Factory
After graduating from secondary school with a silver medal, Julia chooses the St. Petersburg Humanitarian University, where she studies in the specialty of Public Relations. Already in the 1st year, the girl becomes the host of the TNT television program, and then passes the casting for the famous "Star Factory-3". Due to participation in the project, Yulia is expelled from the university for absenteeism, but the game was worth the candle, because she took 3rd place at the “Factory”, thereby earning a gift from the judges in 3 clips and 1 album, not counting thousands of fans from all over Russia! Thus, the singer Julia Mikhalchik ascended the Olympus of modern show business and began a real professional career as a performer.

After finishing the Star Factory project, Julia travels around the country with the rest of the finalists, giving concerts and gaining experience. The tour lasted from April to December, after which the participants left to build their future career.
