In this material there will be no well-known KVN officers such as Ekaterina Varnava, Semyon Slepakov, Garik Martirosyan, Andrey Burkovsky, Elena Borshcheva and others. We decided to dig a little deeper and in honor of the Club of the Merry and Inventive’s birthday (and it’s 61 years old, by the way!) to talk about once-popular comedians who have fallen out of sight over the years.
Sangadzhi Tarbaev, RUDN Team


Sangadzhi was not only the captain of the team, but also his immediate superior, who solved many problems. Even then he became interested in production, and many programs on TNT and STS were his work and mind. In 2019, Tarbaev became interested in politics, quickly climbed the career ladder, and today he is the chairman of the State Duma Committee on Tourism and Tourism Infrastructure Development.
Iosif Buyanovsky, “Burnt by the Sun”


Joseph was in every sense one of the brightest characters of the Burnt by the Sun team, he was remembered by the nicknames Lyalya, Worm in a spacesuit, Extension Man. In 2000, he tried his hand at acting: he played in the film Best Film. And that’s unfortunately all. Today, Buyanovsky lives in Israel and develops in several creative directions at once: he dances, plays in the theater, works as a photographer, and also paints.
Pavel Kozmopoulos, Pyatigorsk team


Viewers remembered Pavel not only for his sonorous surname, but also for his sharp appearance and extraordinary sense of humor. About 10 years ago, Kozmopoulos began to lose his sight and hearing dramatically. For a long time, doctors could not understand what was happening to the comedian until they finally discovered a tumor in his head. Pavel underwent emergency surgery, after which his sight returned, but not his hearing. Kozmopoulos did not give up and continues to work for the benefit of his beloved KVN: he writes scripts and supervises the league in the Caucasus.
Elena Rybalko, “Burnt by the Sun”

The petite blonde from Burnt by the Sun was adored by everyone. But she herself, as it turned out years later, hated watching her performances. It turns out that Elena never considered herself beautiful and on the threshold of her 45th birthday she was completely disappointed with her appearance, despite the fact that she still performs on stage, only now solo, in the stand-up genre. .

Sergey Sivokho, KVN DPI


Sergey Sivokho in his team was a cute funny fat guy. Being overweight made the comedian famous, but almost killed him. In 2017, Sergei weighed 195 kg, and therefore began to have serious health problems. In order to survive, Sivokho desperately needed to lose weight, which he did, shedding 50 kg. In 2019, Serhiy, as a Ukrainian, entered politics with the intention of returning Donbass to his native country. Negotiations stalled and in March 2020, Sivokho was fired.
Andrew Njogu, “RUDN University Team”


Andrew is one of the brightest characters of the RUDN Team, who still occasionally plays in KVN. And Njogu also took place as a host of company parties and holidays – the funny black host is very popular.
Alexander Jakušev, Prima


Remember the chubby Alexander in the acid green shirt? So the former captain of Prima has changed so incredibly over the years that you can’t take your eyes off him. All these years, Yakushev continued to engage in humor, and today you can see him in the new show “Game” on TNT.
Žanna Kadniková, Parma


The duet of two vocational school students, Kadnikova and Permyakova, was adored by the whole country. After KVN, they both went to comedy series: only when Svetlana shone in the frame, Zhanna worked outside it. So it is Kadnikova who directed the popular TV series Univer, Real Boys, Poor People, Street. By the way, this was also in the days of KVN: only on stage Zhanna embodied the image of a vulgar stupid girl, but in reality she was the main person in the team who wrote all the scripts and jokes for the show.

Kirill Papakul, BSU


The captain of the BGU team was adored by the whole country. Cyril remembers how he was not allowed to pass. After graduating from the faculty of psychology, while he was already the champion of the KVN league, Papakul decided to go to the directors. So he participated in the creation of the TV series “Give Youth!”, “One for All”, “Daddy’s Daughters”, etc. Cyril also plays in the rock group “APOTOM”.
Valery Zakutsky, “Squadron of Flying Hussars”


Years pass and the audience still remembers Valery Zakutsky in his bright role of Lieutenant Rzhevsky. Today, the former kaveenshchik plays in not the most popular film projects, and also earns money as a leading company party.
