Leading channel culture men. The most beautiful presenters of Russian TV

The host of the reality show "Polyglot" on the channel "Culture", the creator of the author's methods of teaching foreign languages ​​and simultaneous interpreter Dmitry Petrov has been teaching star students live for several years now. Their progress is closely watched by the audience and learn with them the secrets of conjugation of verbs in different languages. Dmitry told "Moscow-Baku" learning what languages ​​is now a priority and what it is connected with, told about his desire to come to Baku in order to prepare a course of study of the Azerbaijani language for everyone who wants to study it.

- Dmitry, is there still a desire in Russia to learn the languages ​​of the former Soviet republics?

I teach at the Moscow State Linguistic University, where you can choose from almost any language of the CIS countries: Azerbaijani, Kazakh, Kyrgyz, Armenian, Tajik and others. The initiative to study the languages ​​of the former USSR is now on the rise. We can say that we are going through a new stage of historical development: new ties are emerging, mutual interest is awakening. So there is a big opportunity behind this direction.

- What is the reason for this prospect?

There were and still are economic and cultural ties. If we talk about Azerbaijan, let's not forget - a huge number of native speakers of the Azerbaijani language live in Russia, just as many Russians live in Azerbaijan. The study of languages ​​helps to maintain the interest of peoples in each other, to constantly discover something new for themselves.

Do you think the Culture channel will pay attention to teaching Turkic languages ​​in the Polyglot program?

You know, in Kazakhstan I made a television program for local television dedicated to the study of the Kazakh language. This successful linguistic project is called TilasharENTER. The program consists of 20 parts. With her, I speak to the Kazakh audience, talk about more comfortable conditions for learning Turkic languages ​​for the Russian-speaking audience. There are unfounded myths in society about the unbearable complexity of the Turkic languages, but this is not so. The project can be found on the Youtube channel.

- What should be guided by in order to succeed in learning a new language?

The main thing is to get into the language and feel comfortable in the new environment. Language should be perceived not just as a set of words, but as a kind of new dimension, which has its own color, taste, smell. It should become an environment in which you feel comfortable. Then things will work out.

- What Turkic languages ​​do you speak?

Kazakh, Turkish. In my publishing structure, it is preparing for release, and a manual on the Turkish language is about to appear. I have a Center for Innovative and Communicative Linguistics in Moscow, where the Turkish language is taught at a basic level. The next step will be the preparation of the advanced level.

- Who is studying Turkish in Moscow today?

- Conventionally, I would divide these people into several categories. The sphere of their interests: business, leisure, as well as love for the culture and history of Turkey. So, the first group is those who are used to and prefer to rest in Turkey. The second is people who are connected by economic ties, who have Turkish business partners. The third group included lovers of Turkish culture: someone likes to watch Turkish TV shows, listen to music, is interested in history... Well, and, of course, the situation when a girl marries a Turk and comes to us to study her husband's native language is quite common.

- What is more popular among the population now: the study of European or Oriental languages?

The European direction is consistently in demand. But lately I've been seeing a shift in interests. I see a growing attention to the study of Turkic languages. Therefore, I am talking about the prospect that I expect in the near future.

- What new things can be expected in the new academic year in your Polyglot program on the Culture channel?

A decision on the television project has not yet been made. There is already clarity on publishing and training programs. We have made great progress in the Turkic direction. First of all, in Turkish and Kazakh languages. The prospects for learning the Azerbaijani language are also very bright, but we need to show interest in our project from the Azerbaijani side. I will be very glad if there are interested partners. We will be happy to prepare a joint course in the Azerbaijani language with them. This was the case in Kazakhstan, and now there is very fruitful cooperation between us. I will come to Baku with pleasure, I believe that such a project is ahead.

A news anchor is not just a person who must read the text correctly. In order for the audience to understand and believe you, you yourself must understand all issues. Previously, news programs were given mainly to men, but everything is changing, and more and more often we learn about events in our country and the world from women TV presenters.

Especially a lot of smart, beautiful, educated and self-confident girls work on the news broadcasts of the Russia 24 TV channel.

Ekaterina Grinchevskaya

Ekaterina Grinchevskaya has been hosting news programs on the Russia 24 channel for over ten years. She has been repeatedly recognized as one of the most beautiful TV presenters in the country. However, Catherine is not only beautiful, but also smart. Prior to her television career, she graduated from the Volga-Vyatka Academy of Civil Service and MGIMO, as well as the Institute for Advanced Studies for Television and Radio Broadcasters.

The journalist is truly passionate about her work. In one of the interviews, she admitted that she wants not only to convey information to people, but also a piece of her warmth, her soul, if, of course, the news itself allows it.

She devotes her free time to her family: Ekaterina is married for the second time and has three children, the youngest of whom is now four years old.

With sons

However, according to her, she would like to have another child, as well as adopt. The TV presenter also dreams of learning French, learning to play the piano and traveling around the world.

It is hard to believe that the charming Olga Bashmarova once wanted to work on television with anyone, just not in the frame, because she was very afraid.

In Kaliningrad, where she studied, she was first persuaded to try herself as a correspondent on the set, and then as the host of a local channel. In 2008, the girl was invited to lead the news on Russia 24, where she still works.

Olga herself does not consider her career to be very successful: she has been working in her position for a long time and wants to move on, to do something more responsible. In her opinion, work is very important, but it should not replace a person's love, family and friends.

This does not threaten the journalist herself, she successfully combines her broadcasts with the role of a young mother.

Vera Krasova

Vera is officially one of the most beautiful girls in the world: in 2008 she took fourth place in the Miss Universe pageant.

But on television, she hosts very serious programs, for example, news of the economy or science. Now she is the host of the main linear broadcast of the Russia 24 channel.

She also devotes time to charity events and beauty contests, again, as a presenter.

With her personal life, everything is fine with her too: she is married and has a son, but she does not seek to make her personal life public.

Vera believes that appearance for a journalist is by no means the main thing. You need to be able to navigate in a huge flow of information, highlight the main thing from it and convey it to the audience in understandable words, have competent speech and the ability to win over people.

Maria Bondareva

Some call Maria the smartest host of the Russia 24 TV channel, others call her the most mysterious, and there are reasons for both. The girl graduated from four universities in various specialties: she has diplomas of a lawyer, a journalist, a teacher of foreign languages ​​and even a theater institute. According to viewers, she does not just read the news from a sheet - she is well versed in what she says, and this is, first of all, economic and financial news.

Maria herself once admitted in an interview that she reads mostly not fiction, but textbooks on economics in order to understand the phenomena and processes that she talks about.

It was once difficult to find out about Maria's personal life, but after she started Instagram, where she posts photos of her family, it became known that she has a son and a little daughter.

Maria Gladkikh

If Maria Bondareva is considered a mystery, then what can be said about Maria Gladkikh, who manages to hide even the year of her birth? It is known about her that she celebrates her birthday on October 19, graduated from the Faculty of Journalism of Moscow State University and, before working on Russia 24, led several projects on the Moscow 24 channel.

Maria is Libra according to the horoscope and believes that her character is very similar to the descriptions of this sign. She loves to have fun, travel and spend time with her mother.

And she leads her Instagram in two languages: Russian and Turkish.

Natalia Litovko

Many people remember Natalya Litovko as a girl who tells men about cars, because for quite a long time she was the host of the AutoVesti program. Moreover, Natalya really understands cars, she conducted test drives for her releases herself.

Natalya devoted herself completely to her career, whether she has a family is not known. But we know that she started working on TV at the age of 16 as a reporter in Krasnodar. In 2008, after moving to Moscow, she began working as a correspondent and hosted news on Russia 24, worked as the editor-in-chief of the Strana TV channel, and participated in the 2012 presidential campaign.

For the sake of work, Natalia is ready for real feats. For example, for the sake of a film about oil production in the Arctic, she lived for a week on a drilling platform in the Arctic Circle. The journalist sees her mission in showing all the most interesting things that are in our country, which Russians can and should be proud of.

Ekaterina Gracheva has not only an attractive appearance, but also intelligence and determination. Probably, she inherited such qualities from her father, a polar explorer and engineer-inventor. Ekaterina graduated from the Faculty of International Journalism at MGIMO and has been successfully working as a news presenter ever since.

The girl is fluent in Italian and English, and devotes her free time to creative hobbies. She loves to paint, and she also studied acting at the Nikita Mikhalkov Academy.

Anna Lazareva

Friendly and smiling Anna Lazareva is responsible for reading economic news and running analytical programs. She began her career as a journalist in Cherepovets, and on the radio, then there was regional television, and after that the girl was invited to Moscow, where she made a good career.

By the way, according to the documents, the TV presenter's surname is Svistina, and Lazareva is her mother's maiden name, which she took as a pseudonym. The girl is already used to the fact that different people know her under different surnames.

Anna's work schedule is a week after a week, and she prefers to spend her free days outside of Moscow. The presenter loves to travel to different countries in her free time. Anna prefers Chinese and Italian cuisine, and burns extra calories on yoga classes and cycling.

Maria is a very versatile girl. She began her television career with reporting on cultural events and fashion. And now she works as an economic observer, which, however, does not prevent her from continuing her career as a fashion model and DJ.

Interesting: how was the personal life of Melissa Kerry

According to Maria, when she decided to enter the Faculty of Journalism of Moscow State University, her parents were very surprised, since the family had nothing to do with the media, but they did not object. At first, the girl planned to work on the radio, but as a result, she began acting in programs while still studying, first in amateur, then in professional ones, so her career as a radio host did not work out.

Maria is very fond of fashion. In ordinary life, he often wears business suits: work imposes its own habits.

But she also likes to experiment and believes that there is no need to buy all the things that are now in trend, because the main thing for a girl is uniqueness.

Ksenia Demidova

Ksenia is an economist by education. She got on television in her last year at the institute, almost by accident. First she worked in Volgograd, then moved to Moscow. The TV presenter says that the economy is practically chasing her, so on the Russia 24 channel she most often hosts a block of economic news.

Ksenia is one of the few girls working in the frame who does not trust stylists, so she does her makeup and combs her hair on her own. By the way, she could become an actress, because she passed the competition in one of the Moscow theater universities, but she was afraid to go to Moscow to study.

The girl admits that she loves to go on the air and every time she experiences a rush of adrenaline, like when skydiving. In her free time, she plays tennis, dances and kickboxing.

About love, beauty, houses and forgotten rules of life

In the new project of the channel "Culture" called host Alexei Begak, an artist, architect and designer, discusses with sociologists, anthropologists, culturologists, historians. The purpose of the project is to understand and understand how habits and traditions that are unconditional for a modern person arose. NG columnist Vera Tsvetkova met and spoke with Alexei Begak.

Alexey, it happens that they start with design and “grow up” to painting, but it turned out the other way around for you. Plus, a sudden television career at a very mature age, which is completely uncharacteristic for our TV. How did you get into the "box"?

This is a separate story - how I ended up on television. I have the impression that everything that happens to us is already recorded somewhere. I am quite a pragmatic and sober-minded person, but I feel that the scenario exists. Not hard, but like in commedia dell'arte: there is a role-mask, and you are free to improvise in it. (Someone may also be ordered to change the mask.) So: my son worked for the MB-Group company, which produces products for TV, they had some kind of overlay with the presenter there, and he called me. It was about adapting the American project “With a new home!” - about the device, convenience, decoration, etc. for the channel "Russia". My first reaction is nonsense. But since the offer has been received, it is unexpected, but not disgusting ... If life offers - how can I say "no", I'm wondering? And I agreed. In addition, this work loaded me so that there was no free time at all, and thanks to her for this - that was a period in my life when I needed the lack of free time. Judging by the fact that now I have agreed to a new job - "Rules of Life" on the channel "Culture" - there is a drive, this is an interesting game, and I liked it.

We will return to television, as to your last reference point for today, but for now, tell us the chronology - how it all began.

I have been drawing since early childhood. I grew up in Soviet times, but my father brought me books and albums from all over the world, for which I am very grateful to him. The art school, the Surikov Institute, however, is not a department of painting, but a department of theatrical scenery (my best friend was Sasha Borovsky, the son of the famous stage designer David Borovsky). They didn’t teach anything special in Surikovka - my student years turned out to be a terribly dull time for me, and at the end I was lost - what next? On the one hand, I succeeded and liked it, on the other hand, I did not feel that the theater was mine. On the note of the future father-in-law, he got into the publishing houses "Soviet writer" and "Politizdat", there and there they let me illustrate from a book, they paid well; and so it rolled. And in 1991, my wife's paintings ended up in a London gallery, we were called there, and we went. Not understanding whether we were going for a week or forever, and when we realized that we had been living in London for 10 months, we decided to change our status and hired a lawyer. Finally, a notification letter arrived - they give us a temporary residence permit, in a year they can give a permanent one, in another four years - passports of subjects of Her Majesty the Queen. Next came the conditions of stay: it is permissible to be absent from the UK for no more than three months a year. For some reason, we perceived this moment as a terrible infringement of our rights, and the next day we rushed for Aeroflot tickets to Moscow. And in Moscow, the owner of the first private gallery "Art Modern" Zhora Krutinsky told me: you know, enough of the black and white period, take some paints and ... I found my dried-up sketchbook, abandoned after graduation, and began to paint. I got out of my memories of England love, which was very strong, painted some imaginary landscapes. The first painted picture was bought for crazy money for the beginning of the 90s - for five thousand dollars. What I do to this day (or yesterday: today I haven’t written yet).

When did you also become an architect?

Returning from England, we ourselves made repairs to our house in a summer cottage - we dragged bolts, blinds, all sorts of nice little things from there. Friends saw it, they liked it: “Wow, we want that too!” Remodeled the house and them. After that, they bought six acres and built a house on them to rent out. Then another dozen in the same way. Then they built a club village seven kilometers from Moscow ... In total, I built 25 houses, three of them in Finland, but I don’t remember how many apartments. Well this is a thrill - to see how six to ten rows of bricks grow a day; there was nothing, a wasteland, and suddenly life arose there! Not everything, of course, is as chocolatey as I say, this is a big emotional burden, since you are responsible for everything, and customers are your friends. I have zero architectural education, but what I see built by professionals with education (not even from an artistic point of view, but as real estate) is nonsense.

Now you can return to television. Is "Rules of Life" an original idea by Sergei Shumakov?

Yes. On the air since the new year, they began to come up with in the summer. How will the guests be arranged, whether to devote the issue to one topic (no, let's connect different cubes), how to present it all visually ... The format turned out to be unusual - viewers who see the program for the first time are surprised - known and unknown experts, quoted quotes from the great on the screen, a qigong master... In fact, this is a daily program about the fact that the connection of times in our country was interrupted, and many rules became unknown to us. How to introduce yourself, how to communicate, how to fall in love, etc. and so on.

To whom - to us?

Russians.

Russians are a concept that includes many different strata. I have a feeling that your rules of life are for your own, for the audience of Kultura.

I'm not a sociologist or a psychologist, and I don't know whether society is divided into layers, horizontally or vertically, but I know that we are able and inclined to learn. On the previous program (“A Thousand Little Things” re-imagined “Happy New Home!”) I interacted with the people, and I was not embarrassed. A week relied on the preparation of the release, I sat, came up with a design, lamps, stools, posters, panels, then sawed, planed, painted in the frame ... Despair overwhelmed because of the amount of marriage that I made, because of the lack of air time and overlays. When success happened, he experienced no less joy than from "high" art. And what he could say from the screen also kept afloat: people, we live badly and ugly, let's try to love ourselves! We wrote three programs a day from morning to night, and so for a week, then editing. The project required a huge number of decisions in a short time (which does not happen in the rest of my activities - if I paint a picture, I paint it as much as necessary, if I build a house - I build it for a year and a half), and, of course, I got tired, but emotional intensity ... It would seem that in the "Rules of Life" physically there is not the same load, I sit, talk with experts (and more often I listen to them), but for some reason I am so exhausted by the end of the fifth day of filming ... Exhaustion is just nauseating. Strange story, I just never had such a thing in my life! Apparently, tuning to a large number of interlocutors, different energetically ... I don’t know.

Are the experts in the program permanent?

We strive for constant experts, but the cooler a person is in his business, the less he wants to deal with small things. There are permanent ones, there is a rotation and attraction of new ones. Some guests are inclined to dialogue, and I manage to insert something, some are inclined to monologue and chat non-stop. I want to ask and clarify something much more often than is possible. Each expert is a specialist in his own narrow field, next to them I am just oak by oak and a kettle with a whistle. I am a student in this program, I really don’t know a lot - how to pronounce words correctly, how to communicate correctly with people of other nationalities and religions ... At first I did not have an explanation for my presence in the program - unlike the previous one, where I honestly did my business: he showed people that it is possible to live beautifully even with little money and that it is important for the state of mind what color the wall in the room will be. Why they called me to the “Rules of Life” is understandable: I can connect two words, I have life experience and all that. I’m not talking about this - I didn’t understand why I should do this, because there are excellent TV journalists and presenters who can do it professionally. Now, when some nice reviews about the program began to appear, I began to calm down, but the misunderstanding remained.

In recent years, completely uninteresting new faces have appeared on the channels, a kind of young yuppies with no signs of individuality. And you, in addition to laughing eyes and a charming smile, have charisma, not to mention the seal of intelligence.

Thank you, of course, but this does not change my misunderstanding. I am not erudite, not intellectual and I know very little compared to the guests. I'm a little embarrassed that I took this case.

Since you already decided to sprinkle ashes on your head, I want to “squeal” on the expert Dubas with his heading “Happiness”. There is a certain falseness when an adult uncle with an air of “but now there will be truth” starts recording some primitive stories and is so touched by listening to them! To rename the rubric into "Little Joys" is another matter.

I also had a question: why "Happiness"? People talk about their vivid experience, a surge of emotions, a joyful event ... This is not happiness. Although if the stories were more vivid, written more talentedly ...

Do you work with the "ear"?

I receive purely technical commands on it. Sometimes I get themes while shooting in the "ear". All my eyeliner texts, I try to bring stories from my life. The meaning of my stay in the frame is - I think the way I think, and I speak the way I speak.

And why do you have some kind of semi-recumbent-chaise lounge chairs there? It is hardly convenient to conduct a dialogue in such.

The task was set to have several different zones in style in the studio with a minimalist environment. With some experts we sit on normal chairs, with others we sit on a sofa or in these chairs, and with two we even stand.

Well, enough about the transmission. You scared me with a confession - not an intellectual, they say. Are you not a reader?

Not a crazy reader. Poetry is cooler than prose - I have not been interested in reading prose lately. Not so long ago I finally read "War and Peace" - the reading did not end, the feeling was that they were constantly adding to me. What a brave person you have to be, inviting others to do so much with you! Confidence with a touch of peremptory that you are carrying a great idea. In general, it’s closer to me not to read or listen, but to watch, I am a person of visual perception. I love cinema, but the viewer is picky, it's hard to please me - I immediately feel false. I'm not interested when the author wants to tell me something, that's when he expresses his love for something - then I'm interested. Ioseliani can revisit, Antonioni's Blow up, Adlon's Bagdad Cafe. Recently, for the first time in my life, I watched the entire series on DVD - "The Thaw" - and enjoyed it very much: excellent casting and high-class work.

Still, "The Thaw" is the embodiment of Todorovsky's love for the people of the 60s! Alexey, life took place?

The wording of the question in the present completed tense does not suit me very much. At my current age, it’s much more interesting for me to live than in childhood and adolescence, when there was complete captivity, don’t go back and forth, don’t do that, don’t do that, as well as complexes and struggle with them. Yesterday, tomorrow have no meaning: this moment exists. I am working to ensure that the importance of this minute of our conversation with you is higher for me than yesterday's catastrophe or tomorrow's Nobel Prize. At this very moment, the most important thing is always love and beauty.
