But family council I decided that this was not for me: a small, unprepossessing, skinny girl with a completely unfighting character, in their opinion, could hardly achieve anything. But I liked the theater. Although I didn’t often, I was behind the scenes of my grandfather’s theater. It was a real holiday, indescribable delight - noisy and cheerful beauties in chic suits, perky men in high spirits. Life inside vaudeville attracted me. During the performance, my friend and I made our way into auditorium and watched the audience as people reacted to my grandfather’s performance.

In the 1990s and 2000s she starred in many TV series. Although she had to refuse roles more than once. The actress explained: “Now big disaster With good material. All that is offered to me are homeless women... or so, I was offered the role of an elderly noblewoman who, out of jealousy, turned her husband over to the KGB, he was shot, and she performs a striptease in front of a young man. There is no humor in this, no sense either - just vulgarity. Of course, I’m not a prude and I have a normal attitude towards romances between older ladies and young men, if this romance originated somewhere in Paris... In our country this traditionally causes aversion. A woman has the right to live riskily, I don’t condemn it, but I don’t want to play such a role. Actually I happy man, I don't have any psychopathic acting ideas. I played all my Ophelias and Juliets back in my student years."

Employees of the Zvezda TV channel took an original approach to the story on the topic of cloning. One of the presenters staged a fight with his own clone, and then forced security to kick him out of the studio.

On November 30, on the Zvezda TV channel, columnist Evgeny Muzhikov and his colleague Olga Volkova hosted a program about cloning in South Korea. A recording of the broadcast appeared later on the channel’s website.

In the video, the TV presenter enters the studio wearing a sweater and his colleague asks him a question about his unusual outfit. “Forgive me for the personal question, but why are you wearing a sweater today?” The man replies that he didn’t find his suit in the dressing room.

Next, Muzhikov begins to talk about how in South Korea, several hundred identical dogs were bred through cloning specifically for service in law enforcement agencies. Three of these dogs were sent to Yakutsk to work as police officers.

Then another man enters the studio - the same TV presenter Evgeny Muzhikov, only in a suit. An argument begins between them.

Men in suit: What's going on here? I'm already twenty minutes into the broadcast. Who are you?

Guys in a sweater: I am a columnist for the Zvezda TV channel.

Men in a suit: No, it’s me, a columnist for the Zvezda TV channel, but look at yourself, who are you? Some kind of sweater, well, it’s not an ethereal look, absolutely. Who is this? I'll ask the security to take this so-called columnist away. Him, him, away, quickly!

At this moment, a security guard appears and approaches Muzhikov in a sweater. He actively resists, but is practically “carried out” of the studio.

The guy in the suit ends the broadcast with the words:

Yes, now such a plot seems fantastic, but the future, when people begin to grow clones for their own purposes, for example, as assistants or for spare parts, is already on the threshold.

At the end of the program, a “clone” of his colleague Olga Volkova enters the studio and they leave together.

On the channel's website they explained that they used this technical technique“as a joke to illustrate the news spectacularly.”

Mistakes made by presenters live often become the subject of jokes on social networks. During the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, for example, a sports commentator, causing heated discussion on Twitter.

And journalist Matvey Ganapolsky is live. Social networks reacted differently to his words.

Presenter news program on the Zvezda TV channel, Olga Volkova looks simply amazing in the frame. A spectacular woman knows how to be charming and business-like at the same time. Some viewers miss news broadcasts with other presenters in the frame. They like to study the picture of the day only together with Olga Volkova.
The secret of charm famous TV presenter simple: she knows how to keep herself in great shape.

Bad habits are a thing of the past

Who hasn't gone through a period when they had to grab sandwiches on the go? A common student habit that can lead to extra pounds with age.

Olga Volkova was also among the women who did not neglect sandwich nutrition. Bread, cheese, ham are not the best foods for those who want to stay slim. So Olga eventually learned to do without sandwiches so as not to spoil her figure.

Activity instead of sport

Olga Volkova rarely gives interviews. It is difficult to find information about what this TV presenter lives and breathes. For a public figure, this lifestyle seems quite unusual. In fact: the Zvezda TV channel is watched by about one hundred million viewers monthly. And one of its main representatives is silent about what she thinks about fashion, sports, diets or politics.

Olga does not hide that she loves to be active and learn something new. She spent a long time learning how to stay in the frame and not mince words. Now she knows how to do it delicately. It is obvious that an active and active girl simply cannot get fat and wither in the hustle and bustle of her affairs.

This approach is promoted by many celebrities. In fact, people who get up before dawn and work until sunset do not really need sports, fitness and other ways to part with extra pounds. Everyday activities prevent them from gaining weight and getting out of shape.

The pursuit of excellence

Olga Volkova often appears on camera in loose clothes that hide her figure. You can understand it: the host of a news program needs to look strict and be able to inspire confidence in his person. After all, she has to talk about important things with the public: about the opening of airports, about urban problems, about relationships between children and adults.

Olga assures that she constantly strives for perfection, but does not believe that she will be able to achieve it very soon. Simply put, she has to think about her figure every day. And this means the ability to limit yourself in food, to have a disciplined approach to diet issues.

Famous Soviet and Russian theater and film actress. Starred in films "Forgotten melody for flute", "Bat","Kill the Dragon."

Olga Vladimirovna Volkova(née Politova) was born on April 15, 1939 into an acting family. Her grandfather Ivan Aleksandrovich Volsky is a famous provincial actor and creator St. Petersburg theaters"Crooked Jimmy" and "Vintage Vaudeville". Many other relatives of Volkova were also involved in the theater.

However, in childhood Olga Volkova I didn’t dream about the stage at all, but about archeology. But the future actress grew up as a hooligan, studied rather poorly, but she loved and knew how to make her classmates laugh. Thanks to this, one day she got into the drama club.

The beginning of Olga Volkova's career

IN Theatre Institute Olga Volkova I didn’t get in, failing in the first round. In 1957, through connections, she was hired into the Leningrad Youth Theater, and in 1960 she graduated from the acting studio at the Youth Theater (L. Makariev’s workshop) and became a theater actress.

Olga Volkova: “I was enrolled in the Youth Theater studio on the condition that they would not study with me. So everything that I was able to learn, I collected bit by bit myself.”

After graduation, the actress could easily get assigned to some provincial theater, but around the same time she married a Leningrad cameraman Leonida Volkova and stayed to work at the Youth Theater. A few years later, a daughter, Ekaterina, was born into the family. In 1970 Olga Volkova moved from the Youth Theater to the Comedy Theater. N.P. Akimova, and in 1976 she became an actress at the Leningrad Bolshoi Drama Theater. M. Gorky, where he invited her Georgy Tovstonogov. Main director BDT was especially appreciated in Olga Volkova lack of fear and self-control.

Olga Volkova: “I wasn’t afraid of anything. I had no fear of my superiors. There was no trepidation or fear either before the party bureau secretary or before the chief director. It was hard to put me down because I never lose my sense of humor. My two brothers grew up with me, and they joked about me so much, taught me so much that now no one can spoil my appetite. When you grow up with brothers, one way or another you learn to take a punch.”

Film career of Olga Volkova

The actress first appeared on screen in 1965. At first she acted a little, and she got mostly episodic roles. One of Olga Volkova’s most notable works was the role of Lotte in the operetta film "Bat".

Olga Volkova: “In St. Petersburg, I couldn’t even imagine that you could refuse a job that doesn’t interest you. I never imagined that I would ever have the opportunity to choose. I don’t have omnivorousness and that duck hunger that is characteristic of many actors. I don't grab everything just to stay afloat, or for money, or just to be on stage. Of course, an actor should always be in shape; as I say, you must not move away from the streetlight so that you can be seen. But at the same time, you must be able to calculate your creative and physical strength and not spoil your reputation.”
