Her childhood and life before fame

Why Dina Saeva has so many haters on the network, for which they are actively trying to denigrate the girl lately in the media – neither she nor her fans can explain this. First of all, she is blamed for the fact that she allegedly likes to “put pressure on pity”: she talks so much and in detail about a difficult childhood that everyone is already fed up with these unpleasant details. But it’s not at all for hype that the girl publicly shares how hard it was for her and her family, but just wants to show everyone with her example: no matter how sad the situation is, you can find a way out of it, without outside help, become famous, without committing shameful acts, earn honest money with your work.

The future TikTok star was born in Tajikistan, in Dushanbe. For those who are interested in the biographical details of the blogger, the question often arises: “Dina Saeva – is she a Tajik, a Muslim?” Of course, she is Tajik, and the blogger looks like a “real rose of the East” – as she is often called in the media. The girl herself confirmed that she was born in a religious family and tries not to violate the laws of her faith. Dina respects her parents, listens to their opinion regarding her activities in the networks. A vivid example can be cited about her relationship with her parents from correspondence with fans on the official fan page in VK (Madina and the tape administrator are there). To a seemingly innocent question: “Do you pluck your eyebrows?” – she answered: “No, I just touch up, my parents don’t allow it.”

A lot has been said about the difficulties at the beginning of her life, the main facts of Dina's childhood are as follows: dad worked as a taxi driver, mom worked as a cook, the family had many children, with strict national traditions, they lived not richly, but amicably. In the 90s, the head of the Basaev family decided to move to Russia with his wife and children, and it took several years to complete the necessary documents. There is evidence that Dina's family lived in Makhachkala for some time before they settled in Yekaterinburg, but they have no official confirmation. Parents really hoped that in Russia they would be able to give their children more than in their native country, where “we didn’t even have a school table,” according to Dina for Forbes.

Moving to Yekaterinburg did not give the material well-being that Dina's parents expected to receive in Russia. Mom took care of the children, dad continued to work as a taxi driver during the day, worked as a security guard at the club in the evening, the family rented a small apartment. She really endured a lot as a teenager, until she began to earn money herself: Dina, in an interview with the Pushka Internet channel, was frank that they were evicted from their apartment without warning, they had to spend the night almost on the street, and in general they lived very poorly at that time. “Once the hostess not only evicted us, but also stole all the money: we also had to go to sleep with dad at work,” a fragment from the same interview.

Beginning of activity on the Internet and the path to huge popularity< /h2>

It was not at all on Tik-Tok that Dina Saeva began to upload her first videos, and not on the Musical.ly hosting: she herself said that she published the first videos on Periscope, which her classmates showed her. But then she got an account on Instagram and TikTok: Madina Basaeva among her peers had already gained some fame on Periscope by that time. “Tajik girl moves cool to the national music”; “Madina Basaeva dances beautifully,” such reposts began to appear on the network after her video. At first, she mostly had visitors in her feeds – foreigners (“Periscope” was not particularly favored by Russian users), but when Madina “moved” to Tik-Tok and Instagram, she immediately had many Russian-speaking fans.

She decided to shorten her first and last name from Madina Basaeva to Dina Saeva: “Previously, I had almost all subscribers from Muslim countries, but as the Russian audience increased, I needed something more “international” and simple, sonorous,” with her words. About the attitude of the blogger towards the Muslim religion: she has a lot of haters, who often go down to insults and threats, supposedly the girl does not honor religious traditions, behaves defiantly on the network. Yes, she does not wear a hijab (although she once advertised them at the request of a friend). Dina appears in the photo in rather revealing (according to haters) outfits, but she is a public person, a blogger, and should please her subscribers with bright images, and not monotonous clothes!

Following the millions of fans who subscribed to the Tik-Tok of a talented blogger, the long-awaited monetization of activities on the network came to Dina. She does not hide the fact that she is now significantly helping her family financially: this became especially true when her dad died. Her haters also like to slander that Dina Saeva was allegedly glorified by Yegor Creed, inviting her to shoot in his video “Love is”. For some reason, they just keep silent about the information that even before filming with Creed, Dina Saeva had several million subscribers on TikTok! An interesting fact: in this video, Dina does not portray a sultry beauty, as they are used to always seeing her, but a quiet “gray mouse” in glasses and old-fashioned clothes – she played Creed's girlfriend, by the way, brilliantly!

About her personal life

The fact that she is not officially married, and Madina Basaeva has no children, is known to all her fans. Yes, she is not going to get married in the near future, turn into a mother with children: in the future – definitely, but so far the girl is focused on her creative career, actively developing blogs. It requires a lot of effort and time, so far she is not up to family problems. And we must not forget that at the moment Dina is the main breadwinner for her relatives, she sincerely wants to help her loved ones so that they do not need anything as they once did, and for this she needs to constantly earn money.

But who is the young man of Dina Saeva, and does she have him at all? The “casket” of her affairs of the heart, apparently, opens very simply, because so far there is not a single confirmation of Dina Saeva's serious relationship with at least one guy. The fact that they never tire of saying about her and the popular weiner Rakhim Abramov: “They are a couple” – the girl herself has never directly confirmed. Moreover: “We decided to remain friends until a spark runs between us,” – literally from the story of Dina Saeva for “Cannon”.

Young people continue to shoot together in videos for Instagram and TikTok, and the fans of both bloggers are waiting: when will the long-awaited spark run between them? Handsome Yegor Creed – they also gossip about him and Dina Saeva, but the blogger constantly repeats: “We are just friends, albeit close ones! Egor is very cool, kind, he never refuses me to shoot together, and he does it completely disinterestedly. Yegor Creed is also in no hurry to upset his fans by recognizing a close relationship with Dina, and the video shows that they are really only friends.
