“I’m nowhere without cosmetic procedures”: Tatyana Vedeneeva revealed a personal secret on her 70th birthday 07/10/2023, 10:25

The actress made her film debut while studying at GITIS and replaced Anastasia Vertinskaya in the film “Hello, I’m Your Aunt”. According to Taťána, she got into the picture by a miracle, without any tests. “I was very proud of myself that I fit into a suit made for Vertinskaya – Anastasia was distinguished by incredible beauty and harmony,” Vedeneeva recalled.

After graduating from high school, the girl received an invitation to the Mayakovsky Theater, but could not get there due to the lack of a residence permit in Moscow. She began to build a career in television. The actress gained fame throughout the Union as “Aunt Tanya” from the program “Good night, children.”

According to Taťana, the requirements for Soviet announcers were strict: they had an unspoken rule – not to leave the house without hair and make-up. Hosts had to look presentable at all times of the day. “I had to get out. Most of the presenters traveled by subway, buses, trolleybuses, and we had no right to look like that to disappoint the audience. This means that in life you had to look like a picture on the screen. And that required money, time, ” said the Honored Artist of Russia.

No one paid for the outfits for TV workers, while the presenters had to look beautiful, fashionable, and at the same time it was desirable not to repeat themselves. Getting a beautiful blouse or dress was the most difficult mission back then, which was helped by speculators and acquaintances. Tatyana recalled how she once spent two of her salary on clothes for the filming of the film Ogonyok.

“Then I went to see Vyacheslav Mikhailovich Zaitsev. He said he had Japanese artificial chiffon. And I need to buy 12 meters, and each meter costs 16 rubles. It was a crazy price at the time. My salary is 70 rubles. I bought fabric, but Slava Zaitsev did not take anything for sewing, he gave me such a gift, ”said Vedeneeva.

There were no make-up artists on television at that time – the presenters themselves applied their make-up and prepared for the broadcast. There was only a hairdresser to fix his hair before turning on the camera. “Lena Bezyaeva was also there, she worked as a stylist in the announcers’ department. Her main task was to organize the sewing of one suit a year for each announcer, ”said the screen star.

Tatána told how she keeps herself in great shape. “These are cosmetic procedures that you can’t live without. And proper nutrition. But all this outer shell can be of no use if one does not have the energy that makes one young. For this it is important to be busy. I’ve been used to working 12-hour shifts since I was young. It’s just not time to focus on sores,” AiF quotes the birthday girl.

When it comes to nutrition, Vedeneeva practically does not eat meat. “Very rarely – boiled chicken. I usually cook it for my dog. And a piece for yourself. Simple, healthy food. But my favorite food is still fish. It is basic to bake a piece of salmon in foil – tasty and easy, “quotes the artist KP.

Tatyana Veniaminovna is currently on vacation in France. After that, she will return to the “School of Modern Play” theater, where she served for many years. “Aunt Táňa” still maintains a light gait and only walks in heels. Plus, he has another trick. “When I wake up in the morning, I don’t run to the mirror. The eyes should not remember an image that they may not like. Your brain will definitely remember this image. And that’s useless. First you need to wash, put yourself in order, drink a cup of coffee … And only when the body really wakes up, look at yourself in the mirror with a smile, “Vedeneeva added.
