We’re so used to these people on screen that it seems like they’ve always been there. However, this is not the case. We recall how the stars of Russian show business began their careers.
Ksenia Borodina
Borodina knew from childhood that she wanted to become a star. Even in college, Ksenia began to look for ways to achieve her goal. She took part in castings and sent CVs to all the vacancies that interested her. At first, she was taken to very minor guest roles on television programs. So, for the first time, Borodina was a guest on the “Windows” program, hosted by Dmitry Nagiyev. Her heroine said she could not determine which of the two men was the father of her child.
Dmitry Nagiev
Nagiyev’s first role was appearance in Yeralash when he was 7 years old. He participated in the first edition of the show, playing a pioneer. His next screen appearance will be only after 16 years. Nagiyev appeared in the Soviet film “The Executioner”, where he got the episodic role of a bartender.
Olga Bouzova
Olga from childhood wanted to become famous. The girl began her career as a TV star with “House-2”. She came to the project at the age of 18, fresh out of her freshman year in college, and immediately captivated audiences. Buzova remained on the television set for long goals, becoming her main star. She then took over as host.

Ivan Urgant
Ivan worked from the age of 10 and tried himself in different directions. But it was all about his creative talents. The television debut took place in the program “Petersburg Courier” – he told about the everyday life of a confectionery factory, travel agencies, factories and enterprises. There, the presenter only honed his skills and sought himself in humor, making comic reports and sketches. But Ivan got his first really serious TV job when he passed the selection and became a member of the MTV team.
Philip Kirkorov
The singer’s television debut took place on the show “Wider Circle!” on Central Television in 1985. There he sang a song in Bulgarian. Philip tried to pass for a long time, even tried to reach the editor-in-chief of the program Olga Molchanova. For a fateful meeting in Ostankino, the singer put on his best suit (and only at that time). In it, he appeared on television screens at the beginning of his career.
