A huge number of television viewers, accustomed to spending daytime watching television, have long fallen in love with the program “Male and Female,” broadcast at just this time. Alexander Gordon and Yulia Baranovskaya, the hosts of the program, make up a wonderful pair of presenters, who are quite interesting to contemplate and listen to. And these are not just words of politeness. Alexander Gordon and Yulia Baranovskaya were able to create friendly relations that are unlikely to turn into personal ones. True, perhaps each of them would find something in this union that could help them reach a new, more professional level. These are two good people who are very fair and capable of reasoning sensibly.
Presenter's childhood
Yulia Baranovskaya, whose biography interested the public from the very moment when her affair with Andrei Arshavin began, was born on the third summer day of 1985 in Leningrad. Her father, Gennady Baranovsky, was an engineer who later became a businessman involved in cargo transportation. And my mother, Tatyana Bratseva, taught labor at a regular school. They met while studying at the Institute of Aviation Instrumentation in their hometown on the Neva.
Future TV presenter Yulia Baranovskaya had just celebrated her tenth birthday when she had to face the first pain in her childhood life - at that time her parents divorced. Yulina's mother fell in love with another man. Therefore, she separated from her first husband and married a second time, giving birth to two more girls in this marriage - Ksenia and Alexandra.
Television career
Having attended Malakhov’s show “Let Them Talk,” Baranovskaya attracted the attention of not only the general public, but also famous people. First, she was invited to the show “Bachelor” on the TNT channel, where she acted as an expert
The first work turned out to be quite successful, and her next project was the show “Girls”, in which Arshavin’s ex-wife was entrusted with the role of co-host.
2014 was generous with offers, as she soon received an offer from the producers of the show “Reloaded”. During the program, the TV presenter had to change the appearance of the participants, as well as help them cope with complexes and insecurities. In the fall of the same year, she joined Alexander Gordon, who hosted the talk show “Male and Female.” In this project, she had to consider the complicated family situations of the characters and give them practical advice, which after some time allowed her to reach a new, more professional level. In 2020, Yulia tried herself as a defender, appearing in “Fashionable Verdict” instead of Nadezhda Babkina.
Relationship with father
Later, Yulia Baranovskaya, whose personal life is still of interest to ordinary people, said that this situation was stressful for her. With great difficulty she forced herself to come to the wedding of her mother and stepfather. It was at that moment that she realized with particular clarity that their former family no longer existed.
Simultaneously with these experiences, she harbored a grudge against her father for many years. It all happened due to the fact that after the start of the relationship between Tatyana and her future husband, Gennady left the family and did not communicate with his daughter. For the girl, the most offensive thing was that he did not even remain a Sunday dad, who could see her once a week, on weekends. And later he also had a new family.
Julia managed to somehow restore her relationship with him only last summer, 2020. Yes, they did not become the same kindred people as they were in childhood. But still, now the TV presenter can call her father in any situation and talk to him about almost anything. She now understands more than ever that, despite all the difficulties of their relationship, she really missed her father.
“Shut your mouth and listen!”: Alexander Gordon severely humiliated Yulia Baranovskaya in front of the show’s viewers
Yulia Baranovskaya published on her page a fragment of a quarrel with her co-host Alexander Gordon. Expressing his point of view on the topic of broadcasting, Gordon lost the thread of his thoughts and Julia decided to make fun of him a little. “Lost? Say it again,” Baranovskaya smiled.

Gordon reacted quite sharply to this. He said that he was just thinking and, unlike her, he voiced his own thoughts on air, not written ones. Baranovskaya tried to gently object: “In life, I don’t speak according to what is written.” However, at that moment her co-host lost his temper and sharply besieged the celebrity: “Now shut your mouth and listen to what I tell you,” said Alexander. In order to somehow stop the conflict, the organizer of the program behind the scenes commanded “applause” and the discontent of the stars subsided to the sound of applause from the audience. “This is how we live,” the TV presenter signed her post (spelling and punctuation are preserved hereinafter).

Most subscribers felt that Alexander Gordon was too harsh with Baranovskaya and even humiliated her. But some people decided that nothing terrible had happened. “I like the presenters! Well done Julia! Doesn't give up his position! Yes, although Gordon is harsh, he has such charisma and says the right things “in life”, “And I like Gordon!”, “It seems to me that he is harsh with you. Aren’t you offended by him?”, “It’s high time to put Baranovskaya in her place. Too starstruck. And Gordon has always been straightforward and rude, but sometimes we ourselves say that this is just a harsh answer.” Haters called Yulia an “upstart from the dirt,” who should be grateful for the chance given to her and not contradict her older co-star.

Lately, awkward situations have been haunting the artist. So, on September 2, Baranovskaya took her 7-year-old son Arseny to 1st grade. However, on the TV show “Tonight” (“Channel 1”) with Maxim Galkin, Yulia admitted that at the very first school meeting, during a demonstration of a pantomime based on a poem, she broke the lip of one of her parents. “We organized it all quite quickly, it was great. The only thing I did that was very ugly was to go wild and accidentally hit the dad of one of my classmates, breaking his lip. But we made peace, he was not offended,” said the TV presenter. To which Galkin replied: “A story that chills the soul and blood.”

But a celebrity’s spectacular appearance never fails. She recently showed a series of photos in which she poses in a snow-white “eco-friendly” wedding dress. It consisted entirely of fresh flowers: the base was made of hydrangeas and orchids, and the veil was made of lilies of the valley. The actress dressed up for the red carpet of the Flower Jam festival in Moscow. The designer of the outfit was Tatyana Tridvornova. “How do you like me?” asked the celebrity and received hundreds of compliments in response. “Like a porcelain figurine”, “You look like an inch from a fairy tale”, “Julia, unearthly beauty!”, write fans. The subscriber noted that in Moscow the TV presenter became prettier and became a queen, while in London she was “just a mother, just a wife.” “You bloomed in Moscow like a flower, like a bright rose,” a fan wrote.
Studies
Regarding her mother’s upbringing, Yulia said that this woman raised her to be an independent and self-confident person. Mom always told her that even if her daughter started smoking and thinks she can afford it, then let her smoke not in the bushes, but among people. You must do as you see fit.
Yulia Baranovskaya, whose personal life is quite interesting to others, studied at an ordinary St. Petersburg school. She wanted to become a good journalist, but at the convincing request of her mother, the girl became a student at the University of Aerospace Instrumentation. She did not like studying, and in 2005 the student left her studies because her first child was born.
Andrei Arshavin's ex-wife transports children from London to Moscow
Since the ex-wife of football player Andrei Arshavin began building a career as a TV presenter, she practically lives in two cities. Yulia Baranovskaya’s children still constantly remain in London, but she increasingly flies to Moscow for filming. In the Russian capital, Yulia is staying with her close friend Inna Zhirkova, the wife of national team midfielder Yuri Zhirkov. Since Baranovskaya got a new job (she now hosts the “Male/Female” program on Channel One), even more time will be spent on flights. Therefore, the football player’s ex-wife made a radical decision: to move the children from London to Moscow and settle the whole family in Russia. Yulia said on her microblog that her three children - sons Artem and Arseny and daughter Yana - will soon move to the capital:
— Exactly a year ago I flew to Moscow for just three days to visit my friends, and today we are celebrating a year of “living together.” Soon the children will move in and everything will fall into place. – Julia wrote on her Instagram page, “I think this has happened to many of you: go somewhere for five minutes, but stay for the rest of your life!” Life is full of surprises, I wish you all that they were only pleasant.
Readers of Yulia's page fully approved of her decision - most subscribers believe that children should live and be raised in their homeland. Julia has not yet announced where and how the TV presenter plans to settle.
Let us remind you that Baranovskaya’s new program “Male/Female” is airing on Channel One, the program is hosted by Arshavin’s ex-wife together with a more experienced colleague Alexander Gordon. In the intro of the program, Gordon and Baranovskaya fencing in special suits. And then they take off their masks and shake hands. Previously, Yulia Baranovskaya was the host of the show about changing the style “Reboot” on TNT and the entertainment program “Girls” on the Russia 1 channel.
Meanwhile, Yulia’s ex-husband Andrei Arshavin is setting up a new family nest with St. Petersburg resident Alisa Kazmina. The football star does not comment on his personal life, however, judging by the fact that the engagement ring has been shining on the athlete’s finger for several months, Andrei and Alisa have formalized their relationship. The chosen one of 33-year-old Arshavin is 32 years old, she is raising two children from her first marriage, who live with their mother and her new life partner in the football player’s St. Petersburg apartment.

Judging by the fact that in July 2012, divorced Kazmina updated the status on her Facebook page, noting that she was now “in a relationship,” it was from that moment that her romance with the football player began. Since then, the paparazzi have repeatedly caught the couple together, either in London or in Miami. In December 2012, it became finally known that the athlete left the family. And later a sensational legal battle began between him and Yulia Baranovskaya.
Briefly about Andrey
Julia started on the road to fame 14 years ago, when she met Andrei Arshavin. More on this below. The popularity of Russian national team player Arshavin grew, followed by interest in his common-law wife, who became Baranovskaya.
Six years after they met, the couple moved to London (Andrei was then playing for the Arsenal team). Gradually, the British tabloids noticed Julia, who was becoming a media person. It was in this beautiful city that for several years she was the host of the Russian Maslenitsa festival, held in Trafalgar Square. She became even more famous after her scandalous separation from her common-law husband, who left her with three children in her arms. Of course, the public was very sympathetic to Yulia. And she herself spoke about everything very easily, giving interviews and sharing details of Arshavin’s personal life and betrayal with numerous journalists.
Her nine-year union with her common-law husband ended in a very loud breakup and numerous lawsuits. Yulia was forced to file a lawsuit in a London court, because she then lived in London, demanding that Andrey receive alimony. The result was very simple: all of Arshavin's accounts were frozen, so he began to pay.
Yulia received not only a substantial amount, but also two apartments - a three-room and a two-room. In addition, the ex-husband is obliged to pay her half of his monthly income until 2030.
After the end of this relationship, information appeared in the media that Yulia was having an affair with actor Andrei Chadov, with whom they were repeatedly spotted at various social events. And the girl herself often posted photos of them together on social networks. True, none of them have ever officially confirmed the romance.

I met Yulia not so long ago, but, as sometimes happens, from the first second I had the absolute feeling that we had known each other all our lives. Despite our completely different destinies, we had so much in common that I sometimes wanted to finish her sentences and pick up the topics that Yulia began to talk about. The interview went off in one breath, although at first I was afraid of repetitions, because quite a lot had already been written about Yulia on the Internet. But, after talking with her, I realized that no one had written the most important thing... Yulia, as in our interview - fragile, but very strong, wise and at the same time incredibly touching, sensitive and vulnerable - is known only by her close ones. For me, she is an absolute heroine of our time, who knows what she wants from life and takes what she needs from it, loves her family madly, works her butt off, but never stops dreaming and believing in true and pure love. I am deeply convinced that it will definitely happen to such a girl!
Dress, show Room RED
In two years, my life has changed a lot: from a housewife and “Arshavin’s wife” I turned into Yulia Baranovskaya, the host of the “Male/Female” program on Channel One. Although, when I went to my first audition in my life, I didn’t believe that it could be serious. That's probably why there was no fear. Before auditioning with Gordon, I wasn’t worried , although many of my friends scared me with him and told stories of how he “ate” or drove one or another of his partners or co-hosts to hysterics. But I knew almost nothing about him , I didn’t understand the full scale of this man, and this helped me.

A week after the auditions, I received a positive response, but it was simply impossible to believe that this was not a joke or a prank, that I would work on Channel One . Channel One presented all its new projects on Saturday live. We were supposed to leave in the morning at 10:47. The day before I went to visit my friend, and at midnight I broke my front tooth! In her house, a glass door led to the loggia, absolutely clean and transparent. In general, I didn’t notice her. She was walking with a cup of coffee in her hands and, crossing the threshold of the loggia, decided to take a sip... The cup first hit the door, then a tooth, which remained in this cup, and her lips were covered in blood. Moreover, a few hours later I had a live broadcast to the whole country, for the first time on Channel One! And I'm missing a tooth! The bruises that were above the lip, of course, can be covered up, but the missing tooth cannot be hidden. I think I was hysterical then.
I won’t tell you what it took for our team to find the dentist on the night from Friday to Saturday, but my tooth was restored and I went on air with a smile on my face - everything went well. Only at that moment did I believe and realize that I was working on Channel One and no tooth could interfere with this!
Sasha (Alexander Gordon (51), TV presenter. – Ed.
.), certainly
one of the best on television, and in terms of the dramaturgy of the conflict, he is generally a genius . But if a person does something on screen for a very long time and well, then there is a chance that he will behave the same way in life. Of course , he has a very difficult character . But I try to accept every action and conflict with me with gratitude. I understand that I have and will always have something to learn from him. I can safely call him “the Google man” because he can answer any question in any field, in any field. We are all used to reading about geniuses in books or watching them on TV, but if you are lucky enough to work with one, you should cherish it! Sasha never said what he thought of me. But one day his father, Harry Borisovich Gordon (74), told me (and this is my favorite phrase): “I hated you for the first 40 programs .
I would probably hate myself even longer if I were in their place.
Alexander Gordon is a man with a certain reputation, one of the most important intellectuals of Russian television, director, actor, and here he gets the ex-wife of a football player as his partner. I am quite self-critical and can say that if I were him, I would refuse such a partner. But he behaved like a professional and gave me a chance. Garry Borisovich, naturally worried in a fatherly way, told the truth, and I adore him for it, because after 40 programs, the attitude has changed. It costs a lot. Over time, we began to trust each other.

The main thing that I have realized over the past two years is that people do not change. And when you try to change a person, you fall into illusion. For some time it will seem to you that the person is really changing, but in reality he is just playing along with you. A person can do good or bad deeds, but his essence does not change , I know that for sure.
I began to communicate with people differently. If earlier, seeing a person’s action, I began to argue with him, prove, explain, now I don’t waste time on this. I evaluate people not by their words, but by their actions. For me, partnership and love means looking in the same direction , otherwise it will only be exhausting. I used to think that every snake could be given a chance to fly. Now I understand that those who should fly fly, and those who should crawl crawl. Everyone is good in their place.
The Zhirkov family played a very important role in the first year of my life in Moscow. Honestly, I don’t know if I would have had the courage to do everything that they did for me. At the very beginning, I had a very difficult period, when the children still lived in London , and I was already working in Moscow . I had to break up and constantly fly between the two countries. In Moscow I still didn’t have my own corner, my own apartment, and for more than a year I lived with the Zhirkovs. In the living room, on the sofa.
When I first came to Moscow after Andrei’s betrayal, Inna immediately moved me in with her, and they took me everywhere with them, just so that I wouldn’t be left alone. Subsequently, when I came to Moscow , they also invited me to stay with them, this was not even discussed. So I registered in their house. Imagine, they have their own family, two small children, and here I am, with a suitcase on the sofa. Such friends rarely appear in life.
About four or five months before Andrei passed away, I had a dream about my deceased grandparents. I come to them and say: “I have a feeling that every cell inside the body has ruptured, as if after a plane crash. It’s like I’ve been smashed to pieces.” And the grandmother says: “Yulia, be patient, this happens. It’s very painful, but it will pass.” Six months later , Andrei left, and there was a feeling that everything inside was torn apart. It was as if I had two different lives - with him and without him .
At some point I had to collect myself bit by bit, which I talked about in my dream.
In fact, I lived a happy life with Andrey. We had a very strong spiritual connection , and not just a relationship. I heard what he was saying from a distance. She could dial his phone number when no one could reach him. We were truly happy
although he has a very difficult character. When people ask me how I build a relationship with Gordon, I jokingly answer that I had a good school.
As they say, judge not, lest you be judged. And we cannot be responsible for other people. But I will never understand the reason why Andrei does not communicate with his children. We haven't had any tragedy or drama, and the kids don't ask why he doesn't call or come. They have a fairly busy life, they just don’t think about it. But they have an absolutely happy spot in their lives - dad. If dad comes to their house tomorrow, the children will not ask him where he was, they will just hug him and kiss him, as if he was with us yesterday. I never turned them against him, and our program with Sasha helped me a lot with this. Because when you see zombified children whose parents are tearing them apart among themselves, you understand that this is a road to nowhere.
I sincerely believe that everything in life is for the better. By the way, my book, which I am currently finishing, is called “Everything is for the Better.”

If it weren't for the divorce, I would never have become who I am now.,
I wouldn’t be doing what I’m doing.
After all, in that previous life, it was quite enough for me to just be Andrei’s wife and the mother of our children. But one day the realization came that everything had changed and now I am responsible for myself, for the children and for everything that happens in our lives. But this did not happen immediately. I won’t lie and draw wonderful pictures, I had a period of depression and panic , which I myself didn’t fully understand. And now I listen with fear to my friends’ stories about that time.
I am a very emotional and sensitive person , but I usually cry from stories from our program, and not from something personal. In life, most often you want to cry when you feel like a victim. I learned to look at life situations not from the side of the victim, but from the side of the creator. And finally I believed that I am the creator of my life .
At some point, we create the illusion ourselves, and then we make someone else guilty. Why? After all, that’s how he was, you yourself accepted him that way.
I've always been the black sheep,
and even as a child I was often and unfairly accused. Imagine the state of a girl who spent a week writing a school essay, putting her whole soul into it, but was given a B because the teacher decided that she could not write it herself and that her parents supposedly helped her. It was very disappointing.
When they tell me that I'm cool and awesome, I close my ears because I'm not used to praise and take it for flattery. Mom never praised me; she believed that an A was the norm. This is tough, on the one hand... And on the other hand, such hardening is useful for further development.
I have read a lot of literature about self-improvement, but still the main book in my life is the Bible . All other books are her interpretations. Recently, my friends and I talked about the fact that most Orthodox prayers are read in Church Slavonic, and, unfortunately, we can only understand it with our hearts, not with our ears. But, alas, not all people come with an open heart to understand the meaning. For many it is like a monotonous sound. If we knew how to listen and took this book for granted, there would probably be heaven on Earth.

Lately, I have been increasingly positioned as a mother of three children, as a TV presenter with a difficult life, who has experienced a lot... But whoever I am, wherever I work and no matter how many children I have, it seems to me that everyone has forgotten a little that I am a woman first and foremost!

Julia and talk show
Over time, she began to regularly participate in various domestic talk shows. After Baranovskaya met producer Pyotr Sheksheev, her television career began, but as a presenter. She was an expert in the post-show of the famous project “Bachelor”, aired on the TNT channel. Its title was "What do men want?" And in the spring of 2014, Yulia made her debut in the show “Girls,” which was shown on the Russia-1 TV channel.
A little later, Yulia began hosting the fourth season of the show “Reboot” on the same TNT, already familiar to her. The idea behind this project is the self-development of the hero and an attempt to rid him of all complexes and fears. And all this found a response in the soul of Yulia herself.
This summer, she and her children are moving to Moscow, and in the fall, Channel One began broadcasting a new talk show, Male and Female, hosted by Alexander Gordon and Yulia Baranovskaya. Each program examines the most diverse and difficult situations from the family life of the heroes.
Career
Even in her youth, Yulia Baranovskaya dreamed of a career as a journalist and working with people. After breaking up with her common-law husband, the girl had the opportunity to make her dream come true and work on television. At a closed party, Yulia met producer Pyotr Sheksheev. He helped the young woman get on television. At that time, Baranovskaya already had little experience in hosting public events: for several years in a row, Yulia hosted the Russian Maslenitsa festival, which was held annually in Trafalgar Square.
Yulia Baranovskaya’s television biography began in 2013: she was invited to the “Bachelor” show on the TNT channel as an expert consultant. She hosted the final episode of "What Do Men Want?" Over time, Peter Sheksheev became the director of the TV presenter.
The debut on television was successful, and in the spring of 2014, Yulia was invited to become a co-host in the top-rated show “Girls,” which had been broadcast on the Russia-1 TV channel for several years. Baranovskaya could not refuse such an offer and for the sake of this work she even decided to leave Foggy Albion and settle in Moscow.
The problem was that the new co-host needed to join the already formed team, which she was afraid of. But her fears turned out to be in vain - and they treated their new colleague with warmth.
In the same year, Yulia was offered to host a show about fashion and beauty “Reloaded” on the TNT channel. TV presenter Ekaterina Veselkova left the project due to pregnancy, and the producers were looking for a replacement for her. Their choice fell on the increasingly popular Baranovskaya. The topic of self-development turned out to be close to the girl, and she gladly helped the project participants in this difficult task, who had to change externally and overcome internal fears and complexes.
2014 turned out to be generous with pleasant events in Baranovskaya’s life. In September, Yulia was invited to become a co-host in another popular television project - the Male/Female talk show. She was to host the program with a TV star - .
The task of the journalists was that in each issue they examined complex family situations and complicated relationships between the stronger and weaker sex. Baranovskaya and her co-host Gordon held diametrically opposed opinions, viewing the relationship from two different poles. With this, the TV presenters helped the guests of the TV show to understand their lives and draw the necessary conclusions.
In 2020, it became known that Yulia Baranovskaya, along with the co-hosts of the Reboot show, makeup artist Yuri Stolyarov and hair stylist Evgeniy Sedym, left the TNT channel. If rumors are to be believed, they were going to travel around major Russian cities and give master classes to everyone who wanted to change their lives for the better and learn to look stylish.
Yulia Baranovskaya is a recognized TV star, whose face often flashes on the screen. Therefore, it is not surprising that well-known media figures are increasingly invited to participate in popular television shows.
In the fall of 2016, she appeared in the rating project “Ice Age,” where the European and world champion and Olympic bronze medalist acted as her partner and mentor. It seems that most of all the audience liked the couple’s number “Darling”, staged by.
Among the projects that come to the attention of the TV presenter in 2017 are the Fashion People Awards, the MODA Topical Style Awards, and the “Baby Riot” program.
Colleagues on air
A year ago, Baranovskaya came to the Channel One kitchen to share her favorite recipes and mealtime rituals with viewers. By the way, her fans learned a lot of new things both about her and about the program she hosts.
According to her, Alexander Gordon and Yulia Baranovskaya are today one of the most beloved presenters. In addition, she said that her colleague is old and beloved to her. With her more than emotional speech, the girl tried to defend her colleague from the comic attacks of Ivan Urgant. After all, he said that if Julia learned to open the souls of invited heroes, as if a sharp knife were opening cans, and then heal the wound, then her partner Alexander could easily break the fate of each of them.
Alexander Gordon and Yulia Baranovskaya now form a fairly close-knit team. And even if sometimes it seems that a strong man seems to suppress a weak woman with his experience and talent as a journalist, then one must be sure that this is not the case. Now they are equal co-hosts. Julia sometimes admits that there are moments in her work when she would never have been able to cope on her own. Only the help of Alexander Garrievich saves.
It should be noted that when Alexander Gordon and Yulia Baranovskaya just started working in tandem, they were subjected to strict criticism from the audience. And it was all due to the fact that Baranovskaya was not a professional. But very quickly their team formed so successfully that they learned to understand each other at a glance.
Gordon disgraced himself on the set
During the recording of the “Male/Female” program, the TV presenter knocks down the cognac and insults the guests with frivolous jokes
Alexander GORDON, who will soon be 51 years old, would seem to be an ace in the profession. He has a lot of successful television projects behind him. However, recently shows with Alexander’s participation have become less and less rated. And the reason, as it turned out, is simple. We visited the filming of the next episode of “Male/Female” and saw with our own eyes what Gordon gets up to.
Filming began with a long delay. When the tired guests were about to go home, Gordon finally went out onto the site. Squinting at Bari Alibasov , Yulia Volkova , Larisa Rubalskaya , Roxana Babayan and Yuri Nazarov , he impressively remarked:
- Mostly ordinary people come to us - like, she wanted to kill her husband, but he survived and then killed her, and then shot himself. And so we call the mother-in-law, sit her down and question her. Today we have an unusual shoot, come on, be frank!

There was an awkward pause. The guests began to look at each other. Yulia Baranovskaya , Alexander’s co-host,
spoke up “Gordon forgets that he is not alone in this program!”
“Well, okay, then I’ll go backstage,” Alexander was offended.
- For what? - Julia asked.
- I’ll drink and come back! If they had poured it on the site itself, I wouldn’t have run.
Another pause. At this point, whispers from regular extras began to spread around the hall, saying that at the daytime recordings Gordon was still somehow in control, but at the evening recordings, turn out the lights: a couple of times he even almost fell flat on the floor - his legs wouldn’t obey him.
This time, Alexander Garrievich went backstage five to seven times. And he returned more and more cheerfully. People sitting near the exit noticed that Gordon was pumping himself up on Dagestan cognac. Baranovskaya, understandably, was very nervous. The partner did not adhere to the pre-written script at all, Gordon’s speeches became more and more vague, and the jokes became more offensive. The presenter weaved in some ridiculous stories. After his address: “Do you remember, dear, how we had fun in the bed?” Larisa Rubalskaya got up and left the studio, followed by Roxana Babayan.
The guests of the studio - Larisa RUBALSKAYA, Mikhail BORISOV, Roxana BABAYAN and "Voice" participant Anton BELYAEV - at the beginning of the shooting they had no idea about the troubles |
- Terrible!
— the famous poetess shared with me after the incident. - Gordon was wildly drunk, and who cares about listening to a drunken man? “We film several programs a day,” the young boy administrator had to justify himself to the guests. - If you were recorded first, everything would be fine. But this is already the third in a row. That's why Alexander Garrievich was tired. We understand that this is not good, but we can’t do anything: we don’t communicate with him much at all, he decides everything himself. But don’t worry - most of what Alexander says, especially during evening filming, we remove during editing and make it look decent in accordance with the script.
Who was next to Gordon?
Julia’s colleague on the talk show platform is the same Gordon. Alexander and his wives also more than once found themselves in the camera lens and the sharp tongues of journalists. And there were several of them. He lived with his first wife, Masha Verdnika, for eight years. With the second - Nana Kiknadze - happiness lasted a little less - seven years. He lived another year less with Katya Prokofieva - six years.
The same with Katya Gordon, known to millions of viewers. With Nina Trigorina - only two years. But even during this time, Alexander managed to become the father of a beautiful daughter, whom Lena Pashkova gave birth to. In his last marriage, his wife was a girl almost thirty years younger than him - Nozanin Abdulvasieva, who bore him a son.
