In addition to Dima, the eldest son Alexander was growing up in the family. But the brothers' characters were very different. Dmitry was a calmer, but at the same time inquisitive and artistic boy. In kindergarten No. 1, and then at school No. 669, he sang at all matinees and festive events, entertaining friends and teachers.
At an early age, Dmitry Bikbaev attended a dance club and a gymnastics section. These classes took a lot of effort and time, but Dima succeeded everywhere: at school, the teachers did not give him any grades other than “excellent”.

Biography
The biography of a talented boy begins in Ussuriysk. Parents paid a lot of attention to the development of their son and sent him to various sections. At first, little Dmitry went to gymnastics and dancing. It was very important for parents that their children become talented in a certain area.
At first, the young man studied in his hometown. But then he realized that he would not achieve much success here and moved to the capital. There the boy began to become interested in music and theater arts.
It is worth noting that Dmitry did not receive a musical education throughout his life. Oddly enough, this was his little hobby, which soon turned into the meaning of life.
Music
In the capital, Dmitry Bikbaev did not waste time. He developed his main talent - vocal. To do this, he took lessons from experienced mentors and regularly took part in various music competitions and festivals. In 2005, he won the Grand Prix at the Russian Vocal Cup music festival. And the next year he was awarded the main prize of the International Festival “Art-Transit”, appreciating the excellent pop vocals of the young talent.

At the same time, the guy managed to study well. After finishing the ninth grade, Bikbaev decided to move to the capital with his brother to continue his studies at a stronger school.

He was torn between singing and acting on stage, but could not give up one for the other: the artist and vocalist could not decide which of these two callings was closer and dearer to him.

Dmitry Bikbaev with glasses
Bikbaev’s participation in the television project “One to One” was successful. On stage, Dmitry exactly portrayed the Eurovision winner Dima Bilan with the song Believe me. The fake Grigory Leps with the song “I don’t love you” received high praise from the audience and the jury.
And Nikolai Baskov became the object of parody by the talented actor, looking at his image from the outside. On his Instagram page, Dmitry wrote that for the first time he was being evaluated by an “original” - “the adrenaline is especially high.” The hero, for the embodiment of which Bikbaev had to tint his skin and try on resin curls, was Michael Jackson.
The singer also tried on a female image, coming out with Vera Brezhneva’s song “Love will save the world.” Make-up artists even managed to fake the famous blonde's mole. But the jury didn’t like Dmitry as Natasha Koroleva. He was supported only by opera diva Olga Borodina.

Dmitry Bikbaev and Vlad Sokolovsky
In 2021, Dmitry Bikbaev, as a director, received the Best Style Awards for the most stylish performance of the season. This award was brought to Bikbaev by the production “It Doesn’t Hurt Me.”
In 2021, Dmitry took over the leadership of the Cultural Center named after. I.M. Astakhov, and soon recruited a cast for the theater-studio “15”.
In April 2021, Bikbaev submitted his resignation from the Luna Theater due to heavy workload in other projects. In the theater group of Sergei Prokhanov, Dmitry was remembered for his performance of the main role in the play “Dorian Gray,” which is considered the theater’s most sold-out project.
In recent years, the performer has completely immersed himself in directing work. With his participation, the performances “Leningrad 42/59” and “The Big Prince” were staged, in which Elena Yakovleva took part. Bikbaev prepared the international project “Playing Pushkin in Russian,” in which actors from Armenia, Bulgaria, Egypt, Zambia, Turkey, and France participated. In addition to creativity, Dmitry is also involved in public affairs. He gave a lecture on the topic of organizing theatrical activities at the IV Moscow Cultural Forum.
“Star Factory” and the duet “BiS”
Widespread fame and glory came to Dima thanks to his appearance on television in the popular TV show “Star Factory”. Dmitry Bikbaev successfully passed the casting for the 7th season of the project.
Here the guy met Vlad Sokolovsky, another “manufacturer”. During their time on the project, creative and talented guys decided to create a boy band. The duet was named “BiS” after the first letters of their last names.
Konstantin Meladze took patronage of the boy band. Thanks to the master, the guys were able to record their first songs. The “BiS” compositions “Yours or Nobody’s”, “Katya” and “Ships” were loved by millions of listeners both in the post-Soviet countries and in Eastern Europe.
Dmitry Bikbaev and Vlad Sokolovsky, duet “BiS”
It is noteworthy that TV viewers liked Dmitry Bikbaev from his first appearance on the screen. This short, but not fragile (Dima’s height is 170 centimeters and weight 70 kg), charming blond with a sincere smile endeared him to the fans of “Star Factory” so much that the producers were forced to return him to the project.
The duet of Bikbaev and Sokolovsky “BiS” lasted only two years. But during this time he managed to create an army of fans, win several awards and visit the very top of the musical Olympus. The musicians presented five music videos and one album.
The young musicians also had ill-wishers. Because of the glamorous style, groups of long-haired, well-groomed young men were declared gay. Bikbaev denied these rumors, but noted that he was not embarrassed by such assumptions. And interest in one’s own person, even this kind, is pleasant for a musician.
But in 2010, the duo unexpectedly broke up. The decision was made by Vlad Sokolovsky, who presented Dima with a fait accompli. Fans of “BiS” will remember the only album “Bipolar World”, which included the last composition of the guys with the telling title “Emptiness”.
Happiness loves silence
Dmitry's first serious relationship occurred during his studies at GITIS. Here he met classmate Ksenia Baskakova. The couple lived for some time in the house of Baskakova’s parents.

After the project, Dmitry talked with Victoria Daineko. Friendly meetings soon became romantic dates. Information appeared in the media about the upcoming wedding of the artists, but the matter did not go further than rumors. Bikbaev's next chosen one was actress Irina Antonenko. But this time something didn’t work out.
After a series of unsuccessful novels, Dmitry stopped commenting on his personal life. Now the artist is laconic on this topic, believing that happiness loves silence.
Group "4POST" and television

The musician played the main role in the TV series “Mistress of My Destiny” and appeared in two author’s short films “Triptych. Part 1. “Sorry” and “KINOtests”.
At the same time, the musician did not forget about his own new group. The international musical and theatrical project “NUCKIDS” gave Dmitry the opportunity to combine two new hobbies. In 2011, Bikbaev acted as director of the musical “Bunker of Freedom”, the title song of which was the composition “Captain” by the group “4POST”. The musical also featured 4 more songs by the group.

At the same time, Dmitry also recorded compositions not related to musicals and presented music videos for the group’s own songs “Let’s Run Away,” “Adrenaline” and “Atomic Bam.”
Popularity came to the group “4POST” quite quickly. In 2012, Dmitry Bikbaev, with Boris Akimov and Shamil Akhmetzhanov, presented the world with their debut album “4POST No. 1”.
