We accidentally crossed paths - at airports, planes, restaurants, on the street ... It was my fatal man, and I was his fatal woman! Photo: Philip Goncharov
The hardest part is participating in the funeral scenes. On such shootings, I again and again experience the departure of my grandfather Konstantin Prokofievich. We were very good friends, I loved to visit him in the Krasnodar Territory for the holidays. I was a tomboy, so I liked to hang out with my grandfather in the garage, where the shelves are full of interesting things - screws, tools. There was also a beautiful Volga there - I still can’t forgive that the car was sold, but I didn’t have time to drive it. What fun it was in the garage! If at night grandfather accidentally found a hedgehog, he put it in a bucket, and in the morning he arranged a surprise.
By the way, about cars - it was my dream. When I started making good money, the first thing I bought was an expensive car. But the project ended, there was nothing to pay for the apartment, which was rented with a friend, and we simply moved into this cool car! They taxied on it, washed at gas stations, and spent the night somewhere on the embankment under the willow - such a romance of youth. Parents were ashamed to say that we were practically homeless. But it did not last long, and I returned home again. Girlfriend too. And then my mother began to put pressure: “It would be better if you bought an apartment!” She set a new goal - she starred in five projects in parallel and earned her own housing. Fortunately, at the beginning of the 2000s, it was still not so expensive.
After leaving the Moscow Art Theater School, she tried herself as a singer. Dad's friend, composer Vladimir Nazarov, offered to record the song "Adrenaline", they shot a video. And he even arranged for me to perform at a combined concert in the Kremlin - in honor of the anniversary of Yuri Entin. I sang "On the Walking Ducks ..." in the style of R'n'B. I proudly invited my family and friends... But there was an overlay at the concert. There are many dressing rooms on different floors, of which the artists are called to the stage by loudspeaker. I missed when my name was called. I heard only hysterical: “Vine-ah! Where is Vine?!" I rushed to run - along the corridors, stairs - all red, disheveled, roaring in my voice ... I run backstage and see that my ballet is already on stage, music is playing. They put a headset on my ear - but the ruthless phonogram sings with might and main! It’s silly to appear in the middle of a song ... Mom in the hall clutches her heart: “Something happened!” And then the entertainer again announced my exit: “And now the number of Evgenia Loza for an encore!” And then I appear, all crying ...
At that time, at social events, she met many representatives of our stage - Lena Temnikova, Natasha Ionova , Pierre Narcisse... With some of them I maintain good relations even now, for example with Irakli Pirtskhalava. In the summer, friends and I went to visit him in Georgia, went with his family to a picnic.
A mad dog seven miles is not a detour. Adventures always happen to me when I travel. Somehow, one flew to Uzbekistan, where the shooting of the Salamander's Trail project took place - the group was already in place. I get off the plane - no one meets me. I start dialing the agent’s number, but at that moment two “lockers” in suits and white shirts come up to me: “Evgenia? Come on, we're behind you."
They put us in the car - behind us is a cortege of three jeeps. I think "Suspicious". They bring them to a chic mansion, where artists, Olympic champions, politicians sit at a laid table - and not a single acquaintance!
I ask:
Where are we? I need to go to the mountains, to shoot!
Answer:
We are received by a respected person - we are all waiting for him.
The actress says she can't remember when she was last approached to get acquainted.
Evgenia Loza played the main role in the melodrama "Beauty Salon", which is being shown today on the channel "Russia 1". Her grandmother is played by Tamara Semina. They made a wonderful duet. “I am honored to shoot with such an actress! Came home and started watching her movies. I called my mother, grandmother, boasted to everyone, ”said the actress.
Evgenia Loza loves novelty, is not afraid to perform dangerous tricks in the frame, overcome herself, learn. The only thing she refuses is to act nude. " The director who wants to undress me must convincingly explain why this is necessary. If I understand that the result will be worthy, I will not be ashamed, I agree. So far, however, this has not happened. Directors care about their ideas, but I care about my principles", Evgenia admits.
Loza's classmates were Glafira Tarkhanova, Alexei Bardukov, Artem Osipov. But Eugene did not stay with them for long. According to the actress, she entered the acting in order to act in films. And they were categorically forbidden to do so. At the end of the first year, Evgenia was invited to a small role in the TV series "Turkish March". Konstantin Raikin, on whose course she studied, was against combining studies and filming. Vine dropped out of school and began acting in films.
Evgenia admits that it is not easy for her to start a new romance, since she is a rather conservative person, she is used to a man getting acquainted himself, courting. The actress complains that she cannot remember when she was last approached to get acquainted.
« Previously, I could not drive even five meters from the house, as they shouted from a neighboring car: “Girl, what is your name?” Now this does not happen either on the road, or in a cafe, or on the street - nowhere. Am I looking worse? No! This means that men have ceased to be conquerors, hunters. Relaxed in our time of social networks, when the girls themselves come to their pages to get acquainted", Evgenia admits.
« And I will not run after anyone! No, of course, a critical situation may arise when I realize that I am forty-five, and I am still alone. Joke! But I'd rather be alone than next to a man whom I myself sought, and he allowed me to do it. I hope that real men still haven't died out yet. I do not exclude the possibility of meeting my fate among colleagues who are able to show masculine qualities, and not just admire themselves.", says the actress.
Evgenia Loza dreams of a family. “I never had an obsessive desire to put a stamp in my passport. But to meet a person with whom you want to have a common home, where children's laughter sounds and everything breathes an atmosphere of love and mutual respect, I definitely would not refuse. I believe that one day it will happen,” Evgenia Loza hopes.
I was born in the city of Anthracite, Luhansk region. As a child, she grew up independent and was offended that, like a little one, she should sit and wait for her mother to pick her up from the kindergarten Photo: from the archive of E. Loza
I was ten years old when I learned from a classmate that her mother, who runs a theater studio, was recruiting new kids to teach acting. How could I miss this?! She began performing performances at the age of six with her grandmother in a village in the Krasnodar Territory: she gathered spectators, performed, even drew programs, as in a real theater.
In the theater studio, we mainly participated in fairy-tale productions. They were in great demand during the New Year holidays. Sometimes they performed two or even three times a day. Roles, unfortunately, did not play the main ones, the palm here always went to the daughter of the artistic director. Nevertheless, I was involved in all productions. In "The Cat's House" she played a Goat, in "Twelve Months" - a capricious princess, in "The Snow Queen" the role was even less: one of the students of the main character, who, among others, sat on the floor and put words from ice floes.
In the studio, I began to receive the first fees. Small money was regularly paid, honestly brought them to their parents. They knew that I dreamed of roller skates. As soon as I noticed a shooting star, I always wished that I would have them. And how happy I was when mom and dad added money to my earnings and finally bought them for me!
From the age of five, she pestered dad: “Teach me how to drive!” He got tired of it, and in the end he got behind the wheel, put me on his knees, and we drove off. By the age of twelve I was driving myself, moreover, I was decently versed in automotive mechanics. But she got her license already in Moscow. When I was fifteen, my father was offered a job in the capital. His construction specialty turned out to be in great demand, many Moscow residential buildings are the work of his hands. When he got used to the capital, he also moved us.
- Did your parents support you when they announced that you were entering the theater?
Dissuaded. They cared about my future, they wanted me to continue the family business, become either an architect or an engineer, because they had no illusions about acting, they understood better than me that only a few fell into the cage and there were very few hopes that I would be among the lucky ones. . In my senior year, I visited open days at many universities. Next to the house was the University of Economics, Statistics and Informatics. I almost stopped at it: it’s not far to walk, and in the morning you can sleep longer. I almost submitted my paperwork. I almost said goodbye to my dream, because in life I am a person insecure, doubting myself.

It’s scary and it’s inconvenient to break traditions! Finally, the owner appeared - we were given a tour of the rich halls, decorated with stucco and gilding, we were seated at the table, fed. And I'm still worried: how will I get into the mountains?
The whole group is on the ears: they decided that I was stolen. And then a whole caravan of cars drives up - that's how I effectively appeared! And the escorts take out boxes of fruit, caviar, wine, vodka and cognac from the trunks. The last was a box with local money - for petty expenses. All this was taken to my room, and I was "on hand": there are no shops in the mountains, and this kind man made sure that the actors did not starve and worked in high spirits.
I didn’t understand who this generous philanthropist was and how did he know that I was flying to the shooting? They left me his phone number with the words: "If you need something, call." I didn't think I'd have to use it, but we had a problem... When the local authorities found out that the plot of the series had a drug theme, the residents were forbidden to rent houses to the group for work. The process has stopped. They asked me: “Zhen, can you get it?” I called and explained the situation. They immediately found several houses, and on the weekend they also took the whole group out to rest. Such a mysterious story about Uzbek hospitality.
Everything went well with work, but with my personal life ... I have been moving away from parting for a long time - for several years. After that love in the first year, she closed herself and did not let anyone near her. She went headlong into the cinema and slowly turned into a kind of blue stocking. Once, on the set in Kyiv, my friends began to tune in: “Today you should meet someone!” We were sitting in a restaurant, and I jokingly chose the prettiest man in the hall. He noticed my look and walked over. It turned out that he was also from Moscow, but came to Kyiv on business. I did not immediately tell that the actress. Many times I noticed that after that the interlocutors begin to be interested only in my work. Therefore, she introduced herself as a seamstress-minder!
True, they soon revealed me: either his friends found out, or he himself remembered the clip of the “Beasts” group, where he was filming. But I didn't get upset about it. After the first date, I didn't really like him at all. However, the girlfriends continued to insist: “Go to the second, why sit ?!” So three times they practically kicked him out to meet him. And during this time we got to know each other better - I saw him, I realized that in front of me was a smart and very interesting person. I was twenty-five, he was ten years older. At first I also checked: I thought, probably, that all actresses are stupid. I started talking about some kind of geometric theorem, but then it turned out that I understand what it was about. Passed the exam. And she herself did not notice how she lost her head.
Upon returning to Moscow, we began an affair, and a year later I moved in with him. He had such charisma that at first sight he conquered all women - my aunts and mother were instantly fascinated and had nothing against our union. They settled in his house. Before that, she didn’t live with anyone, she didn’t even know how to cook, but she learned everything.
At first, he was very flattered that he was dating an actress. But when he saw that in the series I often appear in love scenes, he became insanely jealous. He insisted: "Play only where there is no romantic line." The directors saw me only in such stories. And so that he would not suffer, for almost a year I refused projects. At first, she even enjoyed the fact that she stopped carrying everything on herself and relied on a man. The hostess came out of me noble: she invented some dishes, rolled dinners when his friends came to us. And then I noticed that he already had nothing to talk to me about.
In the new television season on the Domashny channel, viewers will again meet with the heroes of the beloved series East-West. Now the filming of the continuation of the project is underway, which will dot the “i” in the relationship of Tatyana (Evgeny Loza), her ex-husband Igor (Yakov Kucherevsky) and current husband Kemal (Adnan Koch).
We met on the set of the second season of the series with Evgenia Loza and talked with her not only about filming and the twists and turns that await her character in the second season of the series, but also about the actress's attitude to interethnic marriages, godchildren and beauty secrets. And they even found out if the heart of an unmarried beauty is free at the moment ...
- Evgenia, the first season of the series terribly intrigued the audience: the wedding of Tatyana and Kemal had just taken place, as a paternity test showed that the heroine gave birth to a son from her ex-husband. What can viewers expect in the new season?
- In the second season there will be even more storylines and new characters. It seems to me that this will be an even more exciting story. But the plot will still be based on two cultures - East and West.
- And how do you feel about interethnic marriages?
- I have nothing against. I have friends who are in this relationship. But personally for myself, I do not see this possibility. Sometimes it is difficult for me to build a relationship with a person even of my nationality. ( Smiling.) At times, even a Russian man can be difficult to understand. And a person with a different mentality, who speaks a language that I do not speak, is three times more difficult.
- Why do you think some Russian women dream of marrying a foreigner - including a Turk, like your heroine?
“Perhaps they are drawn to the exotic. Maybe life is boring, some dullness in life. And then the woman finds herself in a warmer and sunnier country, in a society of active and hot men. By the way, all the girls from our film crew, including me, were even warned before filming in Turkey to be more careful with local men: they can entice with their charisma and charm, but as soon as they get the girl’s favor, their ardor immediately fades ...
“Didn’t they try to lure you in this way?”
- Surprisingly, no. Perhaps they like girls of a different build. (Smiling.)
- Don't you think that the common wording of divorce proceedings "did not agree on the characters" is connected precisely with the difference in mentalities?
- Quite possible. But I am sure that in any marriage, the first decade of a relationship is built on emotions, and then people learn some deep features in each other, the behavior of each in everyday life, and so on. And if these are people of different nationalities, then they have different upbringing, different perceptions and understanding of some important things. And here all the discrepancies are felt much sharper ...
“But it wasn’t easy for your Tatiana and Kemal either…
- Certainly. There were many disputes between the heroes: how to raise a child, what faith to introduce him to? But they already had other problems, the families of Tatiana and Kemal also had a great influence on this marriage ...
- The story in the series is tied with the fact that your heroine cheated on her husband. Do you somehow justify Tatyana?
- It is difficult for me to speak about it on my own behalf - I was not married. And it is difficult for me to condemn or justify a married woman who has become a hostage to her feelings, her passion. Generally I am a person who welcomes love. I believe that love is the main feeling that drives a person. This feeling can justify a lot ...
