Biography of Zedd
A product of two great Russian musicians, Zedd, Anton Zaslavski, real name, is the son of a teacher/guitarist named Igor Zaslavski (father) and pianist Marina Vladimirovna Zaslavskaya (mother), who gave him born September 2, 1989 in Saratov, Russia. Born with the zodiac sign Virgo, the multi-instrumentalist is of German nationality and belongs to a mixed ethnicity (Russian and German).
Zedd and his family moved to Germany, precisely to the city called Kaiserslautern, when he was three years old. It was in this city that he was raised with his older brothers, Arkadi and his younger brother, Daniel. As expected, the record producer started taking music lessons at an early age. At four, he was already a piano star. However, he waited twelve years before playing drums. A classically trained musician, Zedd has extensive knowledge of other instruments such as keyboard, guitar, synthesizer and percussion. He took his musical talent to another level in 2012, when he joined the German deathcore band called Dioramic. Anton developed a keen interest in electronic music production after listening to French electronic duo,
Net value
Arguably one of the richest Russian-German musicians, Zedd’s years in showbiz were very fulfilling. For his hard work, passion, and commitment to a career he treasured so much, he not only built a strong fanbase and popularity, but also an impressive net worth estimated at $34 million. His daily, monthly and yearly earnings are not readily available at the moment, but it is clear that he earns a lot of money by providing one or more services to his clients.
Girlfriend
As of this writing, the Russian-born star is flying solo and currently has no relationship. Either way, Zedd’s love life was overshadowed by his brief affair with famed American producer, actress, and singer Selena Marie Gomez (known as Selena Gomez), lasting just three months. The pair connected in January 2015 while working together on Zedd’s music video and song titled: I Want You To Know.
After a successful release, the two immediately started dating, which resulted in Zedd becoming more popular than before the collaboration. Although the celebrities didn’t deny or confirm that they were an item at the time, their fling has earned them greater public attention as well as media coverage.
Besides Gomez, the DJ has also been linked with actress Nina Dobrev, who happens to be Selena’s girlfriend as well. The pair began warming up soon after Zedd called off his relationship with the eighteen-time Teen Choice Awards winner. Born on January 9, 1989 in Sofia, Bulgaria, Dobrev is best known for her role in the universally acclaimed drama series. Vampire Diaries. While many believed Zedd and Selena faked their relationship just to sell their song, others opined that Zedd’s decision to date Nina at the time was flawed.
In 2016, the Russian electric music producer was rumored to have American social media personality and model Bryana Holly break up with longtime Boyfriedn/5 Seconds of Summer drummer Ashton Irwin. Although the celebrities have never confirmed their relationship status, it became clear that they are more than friends when Zedd was spotted kissing her head during a trip to Bali in January 2016. It’s unclear if the two split up and when it actually happened, but it’s obvious that Zedd doesn’t have a woman by his side at the moment, as he hasn’t seen one in several months.
