Last Sunday the participants XVII Open Arts Festival "Cherry Forest" — famous artists, sportsmen and officials planted a cherry orchard in "Luzhniki" and presented the annual Oleg Yankovsky Prize "Creative Discovery".

And although I’m no stranger to gardening, I can’t say that I planted a lot of trees - for me, almost all the landscape work on the site was done by specially trained people, otherwise my site would not have been included in the list of the best according to the magazine a few years ago Tatler. But I planted a lot of bushes, even viburnum with currants and three capricious rhododendrons took root. I can’t brag about the trees - only one thuja, however, I expected that it would remain small, as when buying, but for some reason the tree grew, became three times larger and spoiled the picture a little. There was also a thin birch, crossed with a fern-like plant, which bent in a month ... I only remember that I dug a hole under its roots as for a half-century oak. Girlfriends laughed: “If I imagine you in the garden, then only in gloves from Chanel". They could not believe in my passion. This is my experience with gardening. With regards to flowers, radishes, zucchini and even strawberries, I'm on "you" with this. But after my husband decided that I should make a garden out of the lower plot, my interest in gardening disappeared, and very unexpectedly and quickly for everyone around.

But skill, as they say, you will not lose. So I was quite prepared for planting cherries. And she walked fully armed, even brought with her gloves and fertilizers preserved in the barn.

Vika Lopyreva planted trees - as befits the most beautiful girl - in diamonds. Why not? After all, they are our best friends. And parting with friends, even for a while, is sad. And then, it was not necessary for our beauty and heartbreaker to plant something: there were plenty of men who wanted to help her in this matter.

Maxim Kashirin, head of the company Simple, the largest importer of alcohol, and the owner of the wineries of the same name, came to the landing not alone, but with the whole family. Happy people, I thought. “Apparently they didn’t come across gardening as closely as my family.” After talking with our gardeners, I wouldn’t even drag my husband on the lasso ... To celebrate, Maxim tied a sign on the planted cherry tree: “Kashirin family”, drawing a big heart and listing all the household members by name. Someone came not only with families, but even with pets, like Valery Syutkin, seen in the company of Juliet's charming companion - a seven-year-old snow-white Bichon Frize.

The leading actress Theater on Malaya Bronnaya Yulia Peresild had a busy day, she ran to the ceremony immediately from a charity run "Running Hearts". The actress managed to plant a tree, speak to the guests of the festival and receive the Yankovsky Prize, which, according to her, she did not expect at all. The “boss” himself, Mikhail Kusnirovich, at the opening of the event acted as a conductor, but not an orchestra, but a stadium "Luzhniki". Yana Churikova helped him in this - ambassador World Cup 2018 . Under their leadership, the tribune chanted in unison: "Cherry Forest", "Luzhniki", "Russia". Thus, those present tested the acoustics of the stadium, rehearsing, in addition, several traditional "chants" of the fans.

At the solemn opening ceremony of the landing, Alexei Nemov, the pride of the country, our illustrious gymnast, four-time Olympic champion, decided not to make a long speech, but to perform a signature somersault. Moreover, on this day Alexei celebrated his 41st birthday.

Such a relaxed atmosphere always reigns at these Kusnirovich events that no one was surprised when, during the performance of Igor Butman's orchestra, the musician's son brought ice cream to the stage to treat his dad.

The famous actor Kamil Larin, who came to the landing with his wife Ekaterina, told the whole world in secret that replenishment was coming in their family. The artist did not specify the gender of the offspring.

The tireless energy of Mikhail Kusnirovich has been connecting people of various passions, professions, and ages for many years. This is the seventeenth time he is gathering a team to plant a new cherry forest. And we are happy to help him in this!

The next day at the restaurant Cristal Room Baccarat presented a new collection of perfume house Chopard Perfumes. Secular Moscow got acquainted with four fragrances there Haute Parfumerie Collection created by renowned perfumers Natalie Lorson and Alberto Morrilas. The organizers of the evening were inspired Cannesfilm festival, history and philosophy of the house close to this show Chopard. It was then that I met an old friend Ilona Lantsman, the owner of the salon L "Oreal on Kutuzovsky Prospekt, which I last saw last summer on the Cote d'Azur. Ilona moved from New York to Moscow, where her daughter Eva studied with Boris Lanzman. Boris - General Director of the State Unitary Enterprise "Centre City" and father of the famous Moscow restaurateur Igor Lantsman. Still, native expanses are closer to us, Russians. In girlish chatter, it turned out that TV presenter Kristina Levieva, who was sitting with us at this party, whose mother is the general director Fund "Academy of Russian Television" and general producer CJSC "Top Secret-Telecom»- Studied with Ilona's eldest daughter Nora in the same class. Still, I don't know a village less than Moscow.

But the highlight of the evening was my meeting with Katya Peskova. The same ex-wife of Dmitry Peskov, press secretary of our president. After kissing me, Katya introduced me to her imposing companion: "Meet the best secular chronicler - Irina." A smart woman always knows how to flatter another. Katya looked stunning: after all, many women benefit from young gentlemen. I concluded that they are a couple, because this is the second time I see them together. The first time - at the premiere of the play "Audience" V Theater of Nations. Katya comes to Moscow now only on business trips. And he works in France - not by anyone, but as a director Russian Center for Science and Culture in Paris. “Now I have all of France and Monaco under me,” Katya said modestly.
