Today Serebro is one of the most popular Russian bands. In 2007 she started writing lyrics for the group. In October 2007, there were some rumors that Olga was leaving the band because it was said she had problems with the lead singer Elena Temnikova, but that wasn't true.[2] Max Fadeev, the manager of the band, also said that the replacement for Olga had already been found, but Olga decided not to leave Serebro.[2] On 9 October 2018 Seryabkina (the only remaining member of the original line-up) announced via Instagram that she is leaving the group in 2019 to concentrate on her solo career. Solo career (2014–present)In 2014, under the pseudonym Holy Molly appeared on the single «Kill Me All Night Along» by DJ M.E.G. as a guest artist, and in 2015 under the same pseudonym she released her debut solo single of the same name. Shortening her pseudonym to Molly, Seryabkina continued to release singles. In February 2019, she left Serebro and in April of the same year released her debut studio album «Косатка в небе». Since 2020 she has finished working with the label «MALFA» and works under her own name.

A true excitement was displayed by the band Serebro only. They showed a real fighting capacity, for instance, Marina Lizorkina even had her motorcycle gloves with her. Lena Temnikova also came to the racing and actively supported her colleagues, but she didn't take part in the competition.[3] Only three participants took part in the final motor-racing. It was a time trial without any obstacles, and Olga Seryabkina was the winner.[3] Personal lifeShe graduated from an art school in Moscow and from the ИМПЭ Institute, earning a higher education diploma in Specialization in Translation and Entrepreneurship.[4] Olga Seryabkina is fluent in Russian, English and German.[4] In June 2019, Seryabkina came out as bisexual in an interview with the Russian tabloid Super. She did so to dispel rumors she was in a relationship with Maxim Fadeev, which were spread by her former bandmate Elena Temnikova. In the interview, Seryabkina confirmed she had been in a four-year relationship with Temnikova while they were bandmates, and that the relationship was well known throughout their inner circle, but they had never confirmed it publicly. Since ending her relationship with Temnikova, Seryabkina has solely dated men.[5] In 2020, Seryabkina secretly married 32-year-old Georgy Nachkebia in a suburb of Vienna. According to the singer, Nachkebia "is involved in projects in various fields - from show business to high technology." She and Nachkebia have known each other for many years, and "really became close only after I left Maxim Fadeev's label."[6] On September 13, 2021, she confirmed her first pregnancy to Tatler Russia.[7] On November 20, 2021, Seryabkina gave birth to her and Nachkebia's child together, a son named Luca.[8] DiscographyAlbums (as Molly)
