“I sing when there are not enough words”

“They say in musical theater: when an artist lacks words to express the intensity of feelings, he starts to sing. I can say the same about myself. On television, I was invited to both the ice and the circus show, but I refused, and I accepted the invitation to Two Stars right away – precisely because singing means a lot to me, this is what I really love and know how to do. Still, when overwhelmed with feelings, sometimes I write poetry. It began at the age of 13-14, it came along with “unhappy love.” Later she began to compose songs. I perform them at concerts, they sounded on the radio. Now I want to release an album. The main thing is to find the time.”

“I’m a hypocrite trying to be different. The fact that I am an actress is both my advantage and at the same time a disadvantage, because the profession takes me away from my family, from my loved ones. In life, I am a quiet snail, sitting in my shell, in which I am comfortable, good and warm, and into which I admit few people. I live on a whim – guided by intuition, feelings. In people I really appreciate sincerity and do not accept hypocrisy. Home is very important to me, family is my rear. If everything is in order in the rear, then I feel calmer on the professional front. About the front is not a figure of speech. In creativity, you really are always like at war.
