Many years ago, Olga Shelest, a popular television and radio presenter today, came to conquer Moscow from Naberezhnye Chelny with one suitcase. In the capital (Maryino) she only had a great aunt, with whom she lived for the first time.
Now the TV personality is successful and self-sufficient, she has a family, children, a successful career, and Olga Shelest’s house, which we will see in the photo, can be the envy of anyone.
Celebrity biography
Loyal fans and journalists are always interested in learning about the personal life and biography of Olga Shelest. It is known that the date of birth of the star is January 23, 1977 . The girl was born in Tatarstan, but her nationality is Ukrainian. The future journalist spent her entire childhood in Naberezhnye Chelny. Her parents worked at a machine-building plant. Olga was raised together with her sister Oksana Shelest.
Since childhood, Olya showed talent and giftedness, no matter what she undertook, everything turned out easily and efficiently. She always differed from her peers by being a hooligan, for which she was constantly punished by teachers. She didn’t like to study at a comprehensive school, which cannot be said about the art school, which the girl graduated with honors.
Already in high school, Shelest told her parents about her intention to become an actress, but did not find support from them. The girl’s father and mother tried to dissuade her from choosing such an unpredictable profession, according to them. Olya, however, was not going to give up her dream.
Having received a certificate of secondary education, the future TV star got a job on one of the TV channels in her hometown, where she worked for about a year. During this time, she managed to save the necessary amount to go to the capital of Russia. Arriving in Moscow, the girl tried to get a job at the State Institute of Cinematography, but she did not succeed because the time for accepting documents had come to an end.
For some time I had to say goodbye to the dream of acting, but the girl was in no hurry to return home, but entered the Humanitarian Institute of Television and Radio Broadcasting, believing that the profession of a presenter was also related to television.
Youth
In her senior year at school, Olga began visiting a film studio that had recently opened in their city. There it turned out that the camera loves her, and she fits perfectly into the frame. Shelest’s first success was employment as a leading weather forecast program on one of the republic’s channels. Gradually she became confident that she only wanted to work on television and nowhere else. All that remained was to persuade her parents to let her go to the capital to enter college. Parents reacted more than coolly to this idea. And they can be understood: it was the nineties, the country was turbulent, so letting her daughter go alone to the big city did not seem the best decision. But Olga turned out to be stubborn, and consent was obtained. It was decided to enter VGIK. And then a problem happened that no one expected - Shelest could not get to the entrance exams to this university, since she did not have time to arrive at their start. Nevertheless, Olga turned out to be not one of those people who deviate from her chosen goal, and as an alternative she entered the Institute of Television and Radio Broadcasting. By the way, she also managed to get there at the last moment.

A terrible quarrel occurred, during which Shelest insisted on her own independence, and her husband even suggested that she leave. It all ended with breaking dishes and a stormy reconciliation - Olya could no longer imagine life without her beloved.
