Svetlakov Sergey Yurievich - quite famous actor, comedy show host and producer. In the recent past, he was an active member of the KVN team “Ural Dumplings”. He is known to Russian audiences from the films “Yolki”, “Gorko”, “Stone” and “Jungle”, and the show “Our Russia” brought enormous popularity to the actor. Svetlakov was born on December 12, 1977 in the city of Yekaterinburg. In those days the city was called Sverdlovsk.

Childhood and youth

The Svetlakov family was extremely friendly and united. As the actor’s parents admit, they were expecting the birth of a girl and even came up with her name Anastasia. However, when Sergei was born, neither Galina Grigorievna nor Yuri Venediktovich were absolutely upset. One son was already growing up in the family - Sergei’s older brother. When their sons grew up, the parents deliberately exchanged a three-room apartment in order to provide their children with separate living space. In a word, Svetlakov’s childhood can be considered quite happy. He often went fishing with his father, thanks to which it is still his favorite hobby.

Studying was quite easy for the younger Svetlakov. Despite absenteeism and hooligan behavior, the student’s grades were not bad and in his class he was considered a solid student. The desire to make people laugh arose back in school years. The boy loved to act out scenes in front of his classmates and his teachers predicted an acting future for him. At this age he had several hobbies.

Sergei liked basketball, football, and handball. The young athlete participated in regional competitions, where he achieved good results. When Sergei was 13 years old, he was invited to play for the Sverdlovsk team in the first league.

However, his parents dissuaded the guy from a sports career and insisted on going to college. As it says official biography, Sergey Svetlakov entered the local university in 1995 to major in Commerce, which was fashionable at that time. The guy chose the Ural University of Transport and Communications not by chance. His family was from hereditary railway workers. Mother worked as an engineer at the headquarters railway Sverdlovsk, and my father worked as an ordinary driver. His parents dreamed of a good career and even jokingly predicted the position of Minister of Railways for their son.

Actor career

The young man did not stop playing sports even at the institute. As a student, he continued to play his favorite handball. The final point in his sports career was set by the humiliating defeat of his team in the next competition. Disappointed, Svetlakov left sports forever and took up art. The beginning of his acting career can be considered participation in the Club of the Cheerful and Resourceful. It was there that his talent as a comedian emerged. Even after finishing his studies, Svetlakov continued to go on tour with his team.

Participation in KVN

At the very beginning, the institute team was called “Baraboshki”. After a short time it was renamed “Current Period Park”. With a new name, the Ural KVN players went to the festival in Sochi, where they instantly became famous thanks to their performance. The festival was shown on television, and the guys returned to their hometown as real stars. After this event, all of Svetlakov’s thoughts were devoted to KVN. He began to skip classes at the institute, knowing in advance that he would not be expelled.

Sergei showed himself not only to be a good actor, but also an excellent screenwriter. He came up with numbers not only for his team, but also for the Ural Dumplings. At that time, he worked as a freight forwarder at one of the enterprises in Yekaterinburg. Since KVN took a lot of time and effort, the young man had to make a choice between work and an acting career. As a result, the choice was made in favor of art.

Moving to the capital

Touring brought Svetlakov considerable income. Nevertheless, the ambitious guy felt out of place. He began to be burdened by KVN, since he saw his future in the capital, and not on the periphery. As a result, Sergei made a radical decision. Svetlakov persuaded several KVN workers to move to Moscow and they happily agreed. Together with Javid Gurbanov, Semyon Slepakov, Sergei Ershov and Garik Martirosyan, Svetlakov for a long time I rented a small two-room apartment.

In it, the guys spent 24 hours writing a script for a new program, which they decided to call Comedy Club. Soon Galustyan joined them.

Comedy shows

At the end of 1999, Svetlakov started thinking about his own project. In those years, he worked on the “Laughter Federation” program. Having gained experience, Sergei began to select his team, which included cameramen, writers and directors. As soon as the team was assembled, the program “Our Russia” appeared, consisting of jokes. It was a resounding success. This program is still loved by adults and children. According to the actor, he often receives red panties as a gift from unknown fans. In “Our Russia” Svetlakov played several roles at once:

• woman of easy virtue Elvira;
• swindler-teacher Snezhana Denisovna;
• gay factory foreman Ivan Dulin;
• glamorous homeless man;
• an honest traffic cop;
• hockey player

Besides, the audience fell in love with Sergei Yuryevich Belyakov from Taganrog. This character commented extremely successfully on TNT programs. 8 years later, another program called “ProjectorParisHilton” appeared. The format of this comedy show was somewhat different. There was a table in the studio with four people sitting around it. They made jokes spontaneously and on any topic. Moreover, they joked not only about sports or everyday life, but also touched upon politics.

Antonina Chebotareva surprised the guests of the premiere of the film “Ambulance “Moscow-Russia” in an unusual way

Antonina Chebotareva surprised the guests of the premiere of the film “Ambulance “Moscow-Russia” in an unusual way

Having become a father for the second time, Sergei SVETLAKOV now rarely goes out into the world. And the artist’s new life partner can even be called a homebody: the star of “Our Russia” after his marriage was in no hurry to introduce Antonina CHEBOTAREV to the general public, citing the fact that she had a lot of trouble with her son Ivan. And yesterday, finally, Sergei allowed his soul mate to tear himself away from the stove and brought his wife out into the world. The couple appeared together at the premiere of the film “Ambulance “Moscow-Russia”.

Played the main role in the film Hollywood star with Russian roots Margarita Levieva. The actress is known to viewers from the films “Womanizer,” in which she starred with Ashton Kutcher, and "Lincoln for a Lawyer" with Matthew McConaughey. Unlike the Ukrainian Mila Kunis, who spoke Russian with difficulty and with a noticeable accent at Moscow press conferences, Margarita, after many years of living in the USA, did not forget her native language and answered questions confidently and fluently. The 34-year-old actress was born in Leningrad, has been involved in gymnastics since childhood and was even a member of the Russian Olympic team. At the age of 11, in 1991, Margarita’s family emigrated with her mother and twin brother to New York. Despite the fact that the girl graduated from the Faculty of Economics of New York University, she was more seduced by the career of an actress. In 2005, she appeared in the television series Law & Order: Trial by Jury, and in the same year, New York Magazine included Margarita in the list of the 50 most beautiful people New York.

In the film "Ambulance "Moscow-Russia" Levieva played, in fact, herself - an American actress who goes on a train journey from Moscow to Vladivostok. And along the way, of course, he falls in love with a nice Russian guy played by Svetlakova. Despite their status as on-screen lovers, at the premiere Sergei and Margarita kept their distance from each other, which, however, is quite understandable: Svetlakov never left his wife’s side. Antonina Chebotareva, which the general public had hitherto seen only in blurry paparazzi photographs and retouched photos in glossy magazines, surprised the guests of the premiere in an unusual way. On the red carpet, the artist’s wife posed in ripped jeans and heavy biker boots.

Many domestic celebrities came to watch the new comedy. The director was seen in the hall Fedor Bondarchuk, actor Maxim Vitorgan, singer Anastasia Zadorozhnaya, stylist Vlad Lisovets, spouses Olga Sutulova And Evgeniy Stychkin, actresses Ekaterina Vulichenko And Agniya Kuznetsova and many others.

Sergei SVETLAKOV with his wife Antonina

Fame in general is a double-edged sword, and if you are, so to speak, “in the orbit” of a celebrity, life becomes much more complicated. Many people were interested in Antonina Chebotareva - who is she, how old is she? In short, this is the wife famous actor and showman Sergei Svetlakov, and this alone is of interest to a significant number of admirers of his work.

Antonina Chebotareva: biography

Antonina’s life was generally normal:

Born in Nalchik, studied at school No. 4, was a “good student”;

I was studying athletics, received prizes, and here you need willpower, which later helped you build a successful career;

Graduated from the Kabardino-Balkarian College of Design, entered Kuban State University majoring in Advertising, worked as a manager in a television company, then as deputy director of the Monitor cinema chain, and by nature was quite far from show business;

Fate wanted to radically change her life in December 2011 (probably as a reward for the losses and tragedies experienced in her personal life), when, on duty, she met and saw off the film crew of Sergei Svetlakov, who presented the film “Stone” in Krasnodar;

The celebrity fell in love with a charming administrator; she did not rush things, giving him the opportunity to sort out his feelings. Sergei arrived a year later with the film “The Jungle” and took Antonina away, proposing to her;

They got married in the summer of 2013 on the territory of the Russian embassy in Riga, on July 18 of the same year, their son Ivan was born;

Now the family lives in “3 houses” - Moscow, Moscow region, Jurmala.

Tonya with Sergei

Wedding in striped robes

The famous humorous prison phrase about freedom, which is never destined to come, was “laid” as the basis for the wedding ceremony of Antonina and Sergei.

Original wedding in robes

And how could one do without humor, given the composition of the main characters of the holiday:

The suits were ordered in Yekaterinburg, where Sergei’s parents lived, and the day before departure they were given packages that were forbidden to be opened until they arrived;

They didn’t forget about the children either; they were dressed up in striped suits;

The dates of birth of the bride and groom were sewn onto the robes;

We arranged a surprise for relatives who had no idea about the purpose of the trip, at the same time introduced them, made them healthier in the sea air and gentle sun;

The guests had a blast: guitar strumming alternated with harmonica trills and cheerful songs. Dancing barefoot on the sand, and even in the middle of winter, with dinner on seashore. Real improvisational therapy that will be remembered for a lifetime.

Tourists who were vacationing on the island at that time, seeing all these decorations and the masquerade in the form of four “prisoners” on the sand, thought that some kind of film was being filmed.

Prison romance with Svetlakov

The mystical and the real are close together

So how did Antonina “attract” the metropolitan showman spoiled by female attention? Probably because she had no intention of doing this at all, and his “stardom” did not blind her eyes.

In one of his interviews future spouse explained it this way:

Tonya refused numerous calls and invitations to Moscow;

When asked to simply spend time together in Moscow, she offered to come himself, which he immediately did;

This was the behavior of a decent woman with self-respect.

Psychic Mohsen Norouzi, whom reporters once turned to for a forecast of their relationship, determined from the photo:

Antonina has good energy;

She is not spoiled or embittered by life;

She worked a lot on herself, has serious plans for the future;

Possesses not only external sympathy, but also internal, modesty and charm of the soul; love reigns in her heart.

Sergey and Antonina have been together for more than 5 years, and are happy that fate brought them together.

Svetlakov and Chebotareva are happy

Family balance of boys and girls

For most women, the main thing is family, and Antonina is no exception. And this is where she has to keep a balance: mom-dad, brother-sister, husband-wife, parents-children. Interesting, but difficult, both mentally and physically, but she copes.

The family accompanies dad on trips to filming, vacations, and just from house to house, from city to city, from country to country, it turns out to be a nomadic gypsy camp. Packing 10 suitcases and not missing anything is not easy at all. Especially regarding children: don’t forget your favorite toy or book, and milk, and pills, everything must be provided for;

Not to disturb the overall balance of love is also my father’s “attitude,” so parental discussions on the topic of upbringing are commonplace, and the advice of grandparents must be adapted to the changing times;

There are two men in the house, and they have their own, male conversations, and this must be understood and accepted, as well as discussing with Nastya (Sergei’s daughter) the problems of drawing in her “creative workshop” in the bathhouse, but Antonina herself graduated from art school and design college, and they have common interests;

Family trips to the forest and fishing are great, but the soul craves romance, and then a week-long trip to the coast of Sardinia, for example, “helps.” I just want to be alone.

Antonina's daughter

Photographs are almost intimate, especially family ones, and here Antonina is a private person, which is quite understandable and understandable. The husband is constantly in sight, and the understandable interest in his family, of course, is not liked by everyone.

Sergey is a public person, and his photos on Instagram are open to everyone, but they remain practically “closed” for family photos.

Except that:

A mushroom family on the grass in a forest;

A short holiday in sunny Spain;

The “heart” cactus is also good.

Of course, on the Internet you can always find Antonina and Sergei smiling at various events; filming at them is not prohibited, but this rather refers to the creative activity of a popular artist.

He himself jokingly said in one of his interviews that he was the job for his wife, who supported and helped him, especially since she was related to the film industry. In the photo on Instagram, Sergei is with friends, his beloved daughter, nature, animals and is all at work, while his family and loved ones are waiting at home.

Probably one of the most pleasant things in the world is to celebrate wedding anniversaries, meetings, birthdays of children and parents in a quiet family circle. His wife, Antonina Chebotareva, very often appears in photos with Svetlakov - we told you who she is in this article

The love of this couple began immediately after they met - at the premiere of the film “Stone” at the end of 2011. At that time, Sergei Svetlakov was still married to his first wife Yulia, so he did not need scandals, and his relationship with Chebotareva was carefully hidden. By official version, Svetlakov’s divorce from his wife occurred due to the lack of closeness of souls in their relationship; they allegedly lived nearby and at the same time in parallel universes, annoyed each other. Or maybe the charming girl Antonina just got involved in the relationship, and Yulia simply became that “third wheel”?

Be that as it may, Sergei began to appear in public hand in hand with Chebotareva only after the official divorce - in August 2012. A few months later, information leaked to the press that the girl had moved in with the artist and was establishing a relationship with his four-year-old daughter Anastasia from her first marriage. Perhaps the couple decided to take their relationship to a more serious level because of Antonina’s pregnancy - she gave Svetlakov a son on July 18 of this year. Only after the birth of the child did Sergei decide to hastily register his relationship with common-law wife- at their wedding ceremony in Russian embassy There was not a single guest in Riga except the ambassador registering the marriage.

Now the Svetlakov couple lives in Sergei’s newly renovated house in the Baltic states. They enjoy parental feelings, although Svetlakov admitted in one interview that he was a little tired of sleepless nights. Despite this, Sergei is very happy about the birth of his son and he named him in honor of his best friend and colleagues - Ivan Urgant.
