Zhanna badoeva and her children. Biography of Zhanna Badoeva

Zhanna Badoeva is one of the brightest and most talented presenters on Ukrainian and Russian television.

Zhanna became famous after the release of an exciting and educational tourist show project.

Childhood and youth

Zhanna Badoeva, nee Dolgopolskaya, was born in the ancient Lithuanian town of Mazeikiai into a family of engineers. She does not talk about her nationality. Therefore, among fans there are 3 versions at once: Russian, Ukrainian or Jewish.

The parents, “techies” by education, dreamed that their daughter would also receive a “serious” education and follow in their footsteps. And although Zhanna already demonstrated artistic qualities in childhood - the girl inherited a love of music from her pianist grandmother and was professionally engaged in choreography, nevertheless she gave in to her parents and became a student at a construction university.


She had to finish her studies in Kyiv, where her family moved. But Badoeva did not want to work in her specialty: she did not imagine herself as an engineer. Therefore, the girl decided to get the profession she dreamed of: she always wanted to become an actress.

However, things didn’t turn out the way Zhanna wanted. At the I.K. Karpenko-Kary Theater Institute, she was not accepted into the acting department - she did not qualify due to her age. Badoeva was upset, but did not give up: she chose the directing department.


Her talent and artistry clearly manifested themselves at the beginning of her studies and were noticed by her acting mentor Nina Vladimirovna Sharolopova. She invited Zhanna Badoeva to teach at the acting department. Zhanna worked as a teacher for several years. But working on television as an actress or TV presenter remained in her dreams.

A television

The creative biography of Zhanna Badoeva and her appearance on television are associated with the release of the Ukrainian version of the popular comedy show “Comedy Club”. The artist turned out to be the first female resident of the project. She was soon appointed creative producer, which gave her space to bring creative ideas to life.


Zhanna Badoeva was the director of several popular projects that were broadcast on the famous Ukrainian TV channel. She worked on the talent shows “I Dance for You”, “Hurdy Organ” and “Superzirka”. Over several years of work, Zhanna Badoeva has acquired considerable experience in television production.

Zhanna Badoeva's popularity and recognition were brought to her by her author's project called "". According to the script of the travel show, a couple of TV presenters had to visit the chosen country. Each of them must demonstrate to the audience how they can spend time abroad if their pocket is practically empty (only $100), or, conversely, if they are the owner of an unlimited card. The fate of which partner would turn out to be a budget tourist and which would be a temporary millionaire was decided by a tossed coin, or rather, heads or tails.

The Badoev couple spent most of their time traveling, where they introduced the viewer to the sights and peculiarities of each country, the opportunity to live on $100 and feel like a financially liberated person.

Zhanna Badoeva, paired with, whom she later replaced, lived by the project and devoted herself entirely to her favorite work. When in 2012 Badoeva had half the world behind her, she left “Heads and Tails,” explaining her departure by fatigue and insufficient attention to the children.

In 2015, in the 10th anniversary season of “Heads and Tails,” viewers again saw all their favorite TV presenters alternately in their usual roles, including Zhanna.

After leaving the travel TV show, Badoeva became the co-host of another, no less exciting project - “MasterChef”. The culinary show with the participation of Hector Jimenez-Bravo and Nikolai Tishchenko turned out to be no less successful than the travel show “Heads and Tails”. The tasting and evaluation of culinary delights did not pass without a trace - after this program, Zhanna Badoeva is known as a real gourmet and connoisseur of haute cuisine.

The next project, called “Don’t Leave Me,” was led by Zhanna Badoeva together with the unpredictable and charismatic Dmitry Kolyadenko.

In the summer of 2013, a new all-Russian federal entertainment channel “Friday!” began broadcasting, the broadcast network of which is built on entertainment programs of its own production, as well as on projects of Ukrainian television channels.

Zhanna Badoeva was also invited to the TV channel. Soon viewers saw on the screens new exciting programs hosted by the journalist and artist. These are the projects “Battle of Salons”, “#ZhannaPozheni” and “Dangerous Tours”.

Personal life

For the first time, Zhanna Badoeva went down the aisle with an oil businessman who is several years older than her. From Igor Kurachenko, Zhanna gave birth to a son, Boris. Soon the couple decided to separate. As it turned out, the marriage broke up due to Badoeva’s reluctance to become a housewife and drop out of college. The man could not come to terms with the fact that his wife had many interests outside the family.

In the personal life of Zhanna Badoeva, music video director and director Alan Badoev appeared. The marriage produced a daughter, Lolita. In a happy family there were no disagreements regarding children. Alan Badoev raised Boris as his son.


However, in 2012 it became known that what many thought was a strong 9-year marriage had broken up. The network was full of thematic photos and tragic headlines, but the ex-spouses did not perceive the event as a tragedy: they still treat each other reverently. There are many rumors about the reasons for the divorce. There is even a version that Alan Badoev has an unconventional orientation. But the former spouses do not want to talk about this topic and maintain friendly relations.

Soon after the divorce, fans of Zhanna Badoeva started talking about her new romance with businessman Sergei Babenko. Rumor has it that the couple met in America. In 2013, they got engaged. Even the wedding date was announced - February 16, 2014.


In the fall, the couple broke up without ever reaching the altar. Zhanna Badoeva does not talk about the reasons, preferring to keep silent about information about her personal life. Only once did the woman indirectly let slip the reason for ending the relationship with Babenko. A post appeared on her social network page that she was alone again, but at the same time a happy and free woman. And if a man meets in her life with whom she feels comfortable and who “will not put pressure on her,” then she will marry again.


Fans of the TV star started talking about the presenter’s possible return to her ex-husband, Alan Badoev. After all, they always seemed like such a harmonious and beautiful couple. But this did not happen.

In 2014, information appeared in the media that Zhanna Badoeva got married for the third time. Her chosen one was businessman Vasily Melnichin, who has lived in Italy since childhood. He is originally from Lvov. Journalists reported that Badoeva and Melnichin got married in the same 2014 in Sardinia. But the couple decided not to advertise this event.


Zhanna Badoeva, together with her children - Boris and Lolita - spends most of her time in Venice. In one of the glossy magazines, she shared her exclusive family photos with readers. They show a happy family vacationing in Mauritius.

The woman said that her third marriage changed her a lot. She became calm and peaceful. Badoeva fell in love with Italian cuisine, although for a long time abroad she missed buckwheat porridge and doctor’s sausage, which you cannot buy in an Italian store.


Zhanna feels comfortable next to her husband Vasily Melnichin. The husband has a sense of humor, he has an easy-going character and a kind heart. Italy seems to Badoeva to be the best country, from which she does not want to leave.

Now Zhanna still remains in Italy, periodically traveling to film projects in which she takes part. The TV presenter maintains a personal microblog in "Instagram", where he shares his innermost thoughts with subscribers. For example, about how to lose extra pounds. Badoeva unexpectedly gained 4 kg. Usually her weight with a height of 164 cm is 59 kg. Zhanna did not resort to the method that her friend advised her - to limit herself in food. Instead, she swapped her heels for sneakers and started moving more. For long walks, Badoeva takes her four-legged pet named Tom, who once even became a victim of an attack by sea gulls and cats.

Not so long ago, rumors about her pregnancy began to circulate among Jeanne's fans. Her Instagram followers were confused by those pictures of the artist in which she appears in loose outfits that hide the alleged changes in her figure. Also, the public found the footage of Badoeva in a high-waisted swimsuit “suspicious.” The TV presenter herself commented on fans’ speculations only with a funny emoticon.

Zhanna Badoeva now

After a creative break, the active TV presenter returned to the screen. In 2018, Zhanna again appeared in the project “Heads and Tails. Russia". She had a new co-host for each episode. Together with the TV presenter, she visited Mineralnye Vody, Kazan, Kaliningrad, and Primorsky Territory. Each broadcast surprised viewers with a selection of original routes that revealed the beauty and features of each city from a new perspective.


Soon she became a participant in the release, which was filmed in Krasnoyarsk. Badoeva's co-host was a rap artist. Unlike her colleague, Zhanna turned out to be the owner of only a 100-dollar bill, so she had to get to the city’s attractions by public transport and go to a budget hostel in the evening. Zhanna was greatly impressed by her visit to the Stolby Nature Reserve, where the showwoman managed to hand-feed gophers.

The last episode of the season, in which Badoeva starred, was created in Yakutia, where the TV presenter was company. Zhanna was again amazed by the nature of the northern region; the TV presenter visited the Buluus glacier, located in the Khangalassky ulus, and the NEFU Mammoth Museum.

Zhanna regrets that her husband cannot share with her the joy of new travels. Vasily’s business does not allow him to be away for a long time. But in the future, his wife plans to show him the Russian cities of Yakutsk and St. Petersburg, because Melnichin at one time only visited Moscow.

Biography of Zhanna Badoeva

Zhanna Badoeva(nee Dolgopolskaya) was born on March 18, 1976 in the Lithuanian city of Mazeikiai. Zhanna's parents were engineers and wanted their daughter to enter a construction college.

Thanks to the creative influence of her pianist grandmother, Zhanna took up dancing and was interested in music as a child. However, at the request of her technically minded parents, she graduated from the construction institute in Kyiv, where the family had moved by that time. Nevertheless, Zhanna did not want to work in her specialty and then entered the theater institute at the department of television directors (initially Zhanna went to the acting department, but she was not accepted there because of her age).

Creative career of Zhanna Badoeva

Zhanna began her creative journey by participating in the comedy program Comedy Club and became the first female resident. After that, she worked as a production director on such popular projects as “Sharmanka”, the dance television competition “I Dance for You”, and the talent show “Superzirka” on the Ukrainian channel “1+1”.

In 2011, Zhanna came up with and implemented her own project “Heads and Tails” on the Ukrainian TV channel “Inter”. The show gained enormous popularity and was soon adopted by Russian television. Zhanna spent three seasons in the project as a presenter, after which she decided to leave the show and move on.

Zhanna Badoeva: “At the institute, I dreamed of making a program about travel, but the path turned out to be long and thorny. In general, traveling is my way of life. You can say that I am a person who lives thanks to movement... After the third season, it became clear that I had realized myself as a presenter. I needed to move on."

In 2012, Zhanna became a judge of the popular Ukrainian culinary project “MasterChef”, joining the company of the famous chef Hector Gemenez-Bravo and the famous restaurateur Nikolai Tishchenko.

In March 2015, on the Friday! The project “Battle of Salons” was launched, which was also led by Zhanna Badoeva. In each episode of the show, representatives of three beauty salons of different classes of service became clients in the establishments of their competitors.

In the fall of 2015, fans of the presenter were in for a pleasant surprise: Zhanna Badoeva became the host of the project #ZHANNAPOZhENI on the channel “Friday!” Moreover, Zhanna Badoeva not only acted as a wedding planner, but also tried on a white dress herself. #ZHANNAPOZhENI became a project for those who risked running away without warning from friends and relatives, from standard wedding competitions and toastmaster jokes, from “jump photos” and herring under a fur coat.

At the end of May 2016, the Friday! announced the premiere of the extreme travel show “Dangerous Tours”. In this project, the brutal showman Vova Myaso became Zhanna’s guide through the world of marginal Europe. An experienced traveler, Badoeva had to spend the night in porn hotels and drink absinthe.

In addition to the new show, in 2016 Badoeva launched a new side project - a line of designer shoes under the ZHANNA BADOEVA brand. The collection was created with the participation of Italian fashion designer Ernesto Esposito. Jeanne's passion for the shoe business came along with her love for her third husband, with whom she lives in Italy. It was he who lifted the curtain on the specifics of this case for Badoeva.

In the winter of 2017, it became known that Zhanna would return to one of the episodes of the project “Heads and Tails. Star Season”, in which the presenters of previous seasons performed in tandem with the stars of Russian show business. The program was attended by Comedy Club member Alexander Revva, Ukrainian singer Svetlana Loboda, actresses and presenters Ekaterina Varnava and Anfisa Chekhova, actor Mikhail Bashkatov and others. Actor Viktor Vasiliev became Zhanna’s couple.

In 2019, another Zhanna show launched on Channel One - the travel program “The Lives of Others,” dedicated to the ordinary everyday life of people from different countries and cities of the world. As part of the show, Zhanna had the opportunity to visit different parts of the planet, but not in the same way as she did for the project “Heads and Tails” - this time the presenter needs to immerse herself in the realities of the average inhabitants of a particular place.

“Of course, starting something is always scary, but no matter what you do in life, you involuntarily expose yourself to criticism: there will always be people who don’t like something. And if you are afraid of this, then you will never be able to move forward.”

Personal life of Zhanna Badoeva

Zhanna Badoeva was married to Igor, her first husband, from 1996 to 1998. In this marriage, a son, Boris, was born (1997).

Zhanna met Alan Badoev at the institute. They managed to become a married couple only after finishing their studies, Zhanna’s divorce from her first husband and a trip to Egypt. Zhanna and Alan had a daughter, Lolita (2005). Zhanna was married to Alan from 2003 to 2012.

On August 28, 2012, Zhanna Badoeva and Alan Badoev announced their divorce. The former spouses also said in an interview that the “Heads and Tails” project was the last attempt to revive their family relationships. As a result, the couple made a difficult but right decision: first, they left the show one by one, and then the family nest.

After her divorce from Alan, Zhanna had a relationship with Sergei Babenko, whom she met in America, but the wedding never took place.

Zhanna Badoeva’s third husband is businessman Vasily Melnichin from Italy. The couple got married in 2015, after which Zhanna and her children moved to the Italian city of Padua.

Zhanna Badoeva: “We met Sergei several years ago in a common company. For a long time we communicated at a distance - on social networks: Seryozha lives in America, and I live in Kyiv. But one day we met and realized that we couldn’t live without each other. Such a banal story."

According to Zhanna, she was often away, and then the children had to do without her for some time. According to the presenter, they are already accustomed to the fact that their mother is constantly leaving somewhere, and they respect her right to her creative life.

“If I’m not around, then there’s always a nanny, a grandmother, a husband... I know women who stay at home, but have very little contact with their children. We live in a time of such technological progress when we have everything to be in touch 24 hours a day. I am aware of all events and always within reach. Well, then, if I’m not home for a week, I don’t think that during this period you can go crazy with melancholy or not solve some problem.”

Today, Badoeva’s son has already become an independent young man and lives separately from his parents in Milan, where he works as an editor.

At the beginning of 2019, rumors appeared on the Internet that Zhanna was expecting a third child, but Badoeva herself did not confirm this information. Also in 2019, information was released that Zhanna had undergone a series of manipulations in a Korean plastic surgery clinic, but in reality it turned out that the screen star simply removed a small spider vein from her face and underwent a series of non-surgical cosmetic procedures. Zhanna also admitted that she took several kilograms of cosmetics from Korea as souvenirs.

Zhanna Badoeva is one of the most talented and successful TV presenters in Ukraine. She gained fame after participating in several highly rated projects. Viewers remember her from the shows “Heads and Tails”, “Battle of Salons”, “MasterChef”. How did this woman manage to win the hearts of the television public in such a short time? Of course, she captivates with her originality, sincerity and natural charm. In addition, she has impeccable taste and natural manners. TV programs with the participation of this presenter are always a hit with viewers.

Childhood

The biography of Zhanna Badoeva began in 1976, on March 18, in the city of Mazeikiai (Lithuania). She grew up in a family of engineers who dreamed that their daughter would follow in their footsteps and enter the construction institute. However, the girl showed remarkable creative abilities from childhood. Jeanne's favorite pastime was listening to musical compositions that her grandmother skillfully performed on the piano. Having matured, the future celebrity became seriously interested in dancing and music.

Choice of profession

After graduating from school, Zhanna Badoeva, a biography whose personal life is no secret to anyone, submitted documents to a construction university. By this time, her family settled in Kyiv. The girl received an engineering degree, but did not work by profession. Realizing that she wanted to connect her life with creativity, she entered the Institute of Film and Television to become a director. In fact, Zhanna dreamed of becoming an actress, but, unfortunately, she did not qualify for this faculty due to her age.

Career development

The creative biography of Zhanna Badoeva began in the popular humorous program “Comedy Club”. It was she who managed to become the first resident girl in this successful project. Then the future celebrity began working on television as a creative producer. In addition, she was the director of several famous shows on the 1+1 channel: “Hurdy Organ”, “I Dance for You”. Several years of serious work on television made Zhanna a true professional. However, the cheerful, sparkling and pretty girl could not stay behind the scenes for long. Soon she loudly announced herself in a new rating project.

"Heads and Tails"

The biography of Zhanna Badoeva is filled with bright events. One of them was her participation in the popular travel show “Heads and Tails.” This project became a real high point for the girl. The essence of the program was that two presenters (traditionally a man and a woman) went to one of the countries of the world, cast lots and found out which of them would get to spend a weekend in royal conditions, and which would live on just $100. Zhanna's partner in this show was her husband, music video director Alan Badoev. Together they traveled to different parts of the world and delighted viewers with stories about luxurious and budget holidays. “Heads and Tails” is an original project created by Zhanna Badoeva. The biography and nationality of this woman have since greatly interested the television public. However, having traveled almost the entire planet, the TV presenter suddenly left the project in 2012. She stated that she wants to devote more time to her family and children.

Other TV programs

But viewers did not long for their favorite TV presenter. Soon she appeared in the new project “MasterChef”, dedicated to the intricacies of cooking. Here the presenter Zhanna Badoeva, whose biography is described in this article, has become a real gourmet. And this is not surprising, because she had to try a lot of delicious and delicious dishes. Zhanna's co-hosts in this project were the famous restaurateur Nikolai Tishchenko and the famous chef Hector Gemenez-Bravo. In order to take part in the show, the famous TV presenter had to go through a serious casting.

In addition, Zhanna could be seen on the Inter channel in the “Don’t Stop Me” program. She led it together with Dmitry Kolyadenko. Among other things, the TV presenter continued to work in the field of producing and constantly improve her skills. She still has many interesting projects ahead. Now she hosts the show “Battle of Salons” on the “Friday!” channel, where she continues to delight viewers with her sparkling humor.

Appearance

Zhanna looks amazing, but when asked about the secrets of her attractiveness, she replies that she has no time to watch calories. She often snacks on the go, but tries to avoid fatty foods and does not drink alcohol or smoke. The weaknesses that she cannot and does not want to get rid of are sweets and coffee. The TV presenter does not engage in sports, she has a very active lifestyle, she has enough movement. Therefore, if there is a choice between going to the gym and sleeping, she chooses the latter. Zhanna believes that the main secret of external attractiveness is the opportunity to do what you love. This is what makes her fresh, young and beautiful.

First marriage

The biography of Zhanna Badoeva was not easy. She married early (at the age of 19) to a man who was much older than her. The successful oil business tycoon - Igor Kurachenko - at first carried his young wife in his arms and allowed her everything in the world. It was at his suggestion that Zhanna tried to open a video and audio store. However, she quickly became disillusioned with business, gave birth to a son, Boris, and became completely immersed in family concerns. The businesswoman never left Zhanna. Soon, disagreements arose between the spouses. The fact is that the young, inexperienced girl, having matured, quickly turned into a woman with her own opinion on any issue. Igor did not tolerate his wayward wife and one day kicked her out of the house with an eight-month-old baby in her arms. Zhanna had to return to her parents. She was depressed, but withstood this blow and did not even file for alimony. At the same time, she never interfered with her son’s communication with his own father.

Second marriage

What is Zhanna Badoeva’s second husband famous for? The biography of this man is widely known. Alan Badoev is a famous director and music video director; it was he who filmed the first seasons of “Heads and Tails” and even hosted one of them. The TV presenter met him when he was still a skinny boy and dreamed of earning his first million dollars. Perhaps the bright and spontaneous Zhanna was able to inspire him to great achievements, since soon Badoev really became rich. Inexhaustible creativity and wild ambitions made Alan a very famous person. But at the very beginning of his career, he met and fell in love with Jeanne, took care of her and her son, and lived with her for ten years in a happy marriage. What caused the breakup? The TV presenter claims that Badoev has strong leadership qualities and does not tolerate any competition around him. In his wife, he preferred to see a housewife, rather than an independent and successful person. Eventually the couple began living apart. This happened when the “Heads and Tails” project was at the peak of its popularity. So we can say that the Badoevs’ spouses did not stand the test of fame.

Divorce

Zhanna Badoeva calmly divorced her second husband. The biography and photos of this woman are often published in the media, but they are never a reason for gossip and gossip. The TV presenter is not mercantile, so she did not share property with her ex-husband. In her second marriage, she had a daughter, Lolita, whom Alan still cares about reverently. Zhanna claims that he is a wonderful father. The former spouses celebrated their divorce together in a restaurant. They still remain great friends. Zhanna's son, Boris, communicates more with Alan than with his own father, and often calls him to consult on this or that issue.

New relationships

Soon after the divorce, Badoeva began a relationship with businessman Sergei Babenko. In 2013, there were even rumors that the lovers were engaged. However, this union never happened. The TV presenter was free, successful, adored by millions of fans and was ready to enter into a new marriage if she found a man who would not put pressure on her and learned to respect her opinion. And it happened. Zhanna Badoeva, a biography whose children are of interest to many, met her third husband in Venice. His name is Vasily, he works in the fashion industry and lives in Italy. The lovers' relationship developed quickly, and less than a year later they got married. Now Zhanna lives in an old house twenty minutes drive from Venice. She is very happily married. In addition, she likes that she settled in the vicinity of the ancient city, which she always seemed magical.

Children

How old is Zhanna Badoeva? The TV presenter's biography is very rich, and yet she was only 39 years old. Of course she looks much younger. Zhanna is cheerful, cheerful, easy-going and quickly got used to her new place. Italy and its children like it. Son Boris previously studied in Canada and London, speaks English well and quickly made new friends. Daughter Lolita is more difficult, she is only ten years old, and she misses her friends in Kyiv. Now mother and daughter are learning English and Italian together. Moreover, Lolita is making progress and is far ahead of her mother. Zhanna jokingly calls herself a “B student.”

Our days

Now Zhanna is in complete harmony with herself and the world around her. She has everything to be happy: a beloved man, an interesting job, charming children. But she understands perfectly well that anything can happen in life, so she doesn’t wear rose-colored glasses and tries to look at things realistically. She is friends with her ex-husband (Alan Badoev), who often visits the children and managed to find a common language with her new chosen one. Vasily is a strong person who does not like emotional outbursts, but always finds a way to extinguish them peacefully. Thanks to him, peace and harmony now reign in Zhanna Badoeva’s family. I would like to wish this wonderful woman new interesting projects and even greater success in the television field. And, of course, happiness in her personal life, which is not always easy for a successful and sought-after TV presenter. Let's hope that the charming Zhanna will be able to preserve and increase it.

Found an inaccuracy? Let's correct the profile

Read with this article:

Zhanna Badoeva was born and raised in Lithuania, her parents worked as engineers and believed that their daughter should definitely follow in their footsteps.

Zhanna's grandmother had different preferences, she instilled in her granddaughter a love of music - thanks to her, Zhanna became interested not only in notes, but also in choreography.

After graduating from school, Badoeva entered construction, as the parents wished, but a year later the family had to change their place of residence, moving to Kyiv.

Here Zhanna’s fate began to take shape, despite the wishes of her father and mother, she decided not to transfer to the construction department, but to submit documents to the theater department.

Zhanna no longer qualified for the acting department due to her age., so she entered the theater school.

The teachers immediately noticed the makings of a real actress in the new student, so after the second semester she was offered to teach a subject at the acting department. She worked in this position for almost 2 years.

Having completed teaching and training, Zhanna discovers new facets for herself - she becomes a resident of the Ukrainian Comedy Club. Soon she leaves the stage and takes on the position of producer of a humorous project.

This was followed by an offer to become a production director for a number of programs on the “1+1” channel - this work, to which Zhanna devoted several years of her life, gave her an incredible experience.


The project “Heads and Tails” brought enormous popularity to the talented girl.

She came up with the basic concept of the show, believing that viewers would be interested not only in looking around the whole world and seeing its beautiful sights, but also in finding out whether it is possible to relax in a particular place for $100.

The second participant was asked to do the same, only with a bank card with an unlimited amount of money.

An ordinary coin was entrusted to decide the fate of which of the participants would show off and which would be modest. Hence the name of the project.

The first presenters were Zhanna and her husband Alan Badoev, in the second season Andrei Bednyakov took his place.

Zhanna herself lasted for several seasons, and in 2012 she vacated her position as host, citing being too busy with her family and being tired of traveling all the time.

Badoeva did not rest for long; the travel show was followed by a culinary show, then “Don’t Leave Me,” then “Zhanna Get Married” and many others. Today, the TV presenter has a lot of projects, but even more have not been implemented, which are just getting ready for release.

Zhanna’s personal life is just as varied and full of exciting events.- She got married for the first time while still a university student. Her chosen one was Igor, an oil businessman.

From him Zhanna gave birth to a son, they named him Boris. But the couple quickly separated, as the husband wanted his wife to be at home, and Zhanna was simply bursting with ideas and passion for creativity.

The second husband was director Alan Badoev - two kindred spirits quickly got married, and soon their daughter Lolita was born. But after 9 years, Zhanna divorced again.

Now she is married to businessman Vasily living in Italy. Interestingly, the newlyweds celebrated their wedding in the strictest secrecy - there is still not a single photo from this event on the Internet.

Zhanna's parents were engineers, and they dreamed that their daughter would later enter the construction department. Badoeva herself was a very creative person; she loved listening to her grandmother play the piano. She was so fascinated by this instrument that after some time she began to play it herself. In addition, Zhanna danced excellently and did it at a more professional level.
Following the instructions of her parents, she nevertheless enters the construction university. This profession did not interest her, and therefore after graduation she decides to enter the directing department. Zhanna wanted to become an actress, but due to her age, her old dream never came true.

Zhanna's first appearances on television

After some time, a teacher at the acting department notices her and offers her a job at the university as a teacher. Zhanna agrees with pleasure and spends several years teaching future talents at the acting department.
But the girl decided not to stop there and after a short period of time she became a resident of the Comedy Club. She was responsible for creativity in the team, and also worked as a production director.

Time of "Heads and Tails"

The most striking event in Badoeva’s biography was participation in the TV show “Heads and Tails,” where the presenters had to travel the whole world as a poor or rich tourist. Zhanna hosted this program not alone, but with her husband Alan Badoev.
For Zhanna, this project became an opportunity to visit the most extraordinary places in the world and spend more time with her husband. But already in 2012, she left the show. The reason for her departure was that she could no longer be away from her beloved children.

This was followed by many projects, such as: “ZhannaPozheni”, “Battle of Salons”, “ZhannaHelp” and much more.
