Honored Artist of Russia Larisa Guzeeva gained wide popularity thanks to her participation in the TV show “Let's Get Married,” which she has hosted since 2008. Witty and apt statements, wise advice from the “main matchmaker of the country” were loved by a wide audience. In 2009, Guzeeva was awarded the Russian national television award “Tefi” as the best talk show host. In this article I will tell you how the creative destiny and personal life of Larisa Guzeeva developed.
Childhood
The actress was born on May 23, 1959 in the village of Burtinskoye, Orenburg Region. She did not know her biological father, her mother divorced him early, and after 5 years she remarried, and Larisa was raised by her stepfather. Mother worked as a history teacher at a local school. In her second marriage, the mother had two more sons, one of whom died tragically at the age of three. Larisa took the death of her beloved brother very hard.
Youth
They tried to raise the girl under strict rules, but she was self-willed and disobedient. In high school, the mother had to endure reprimands from school teachers - her beloved daughter wore too short skirts, smoked and behaved impudently.
Larisa said that in childhood and adolescence she was very thin. The girl was not of interest to her peers, despite her obvious external beauty. It is quite possible that this fact provoked her non-standard behavior in adolescence.
After completing her studies at school, Larisa went to enter the Leningrad Institute of Music, Music Theater and Cinematography. The competition among applicants was too great, and the girl decided to impress the admissions committee with her extraordinary appearance - she shaved her head. This trick had the desired effect; the selection committee considered her artistic talent, and as a result, she was accepted into the institute.
Youth
During her studies, Larisa always stood out for her bright appearance, unusual images and arrogant character. Her classmates did not like her and avoided her. The girl was a hippie, was friends with rockers, and worked part-time as a model. During the same period, she met Viktor Tsoi, and she had a short affair with Sergei Kuryokhin.
During her student years, Larisa met Sergei Shakurov, who was invited to star in the film “Cruel Romance.” He advised Eldar Ryazanov to take an unusually beautiful student for the main role. So she found herself on the set of the legendary film next to the masters of Soviet cinema.
They are born beauties and hold on, hold on...
Any woman who has not been deprived of the attention of men can tell you how easy it is to be a beauty. But is it easy to be a wonderful actress, a loving daughter, mother, wife... Everyone here has their own story.
But today we will talk about the unfading power of beauty. About the “Honored Artist of the Russian Federation”, popular TV presenter - Larisa Andreevna Guzeeva.
Larisa has been delirious about the profession of actress since childhood. As soon as she graduated from school, she rushed to Leningrad, where she easily entered LGITMiK.
Life for students is always hand to mouth. And the beauty still needs to get dressed. Larisa worked part-time as a model and supported herself, helping her parents who remained in Orenburg. Soon after graduating from the institute, Guzeeva received a role in Eldar Ryazanov’s film “Cruel Romance” (1984). The debut was extraordinary.

Film career
After the film “Cruel Romance” Larisa Guzeeva, as they say, woke up famous. Film critics did not see the actress’s particularly talented performance, but in those years she was still too young and inexperienced professionally. For many viewers, her unearthly beauty was enough.
One of the directors tried to court Larisa, but she rejected his attempts, despite his threats to ruin her career. He couldn’t really interfere with her then, but he never invited her to his films.
After a successful debut, the actress was literally showered with offers to star in various films from all sides. These were the roles of athletes, collective farmers, and partisans, which were not suitable for an actress with such exquisite beauty.

The most memorable were “Rivals”, “Secret Fairway”, the series “The Life of Klim Samgin”, “Mary Magdalena”, “Executioner”. “Seven days with a Russian beauty”, series “Heiress”, “Three Comrades”, “Sea. Mountains. Expanded clay" and many others. In 1994, Larisa Guzeeva received the title “Honored Artist of the Russian Federation.”
