Ksenia Volyntseva, better known to a wide range of radio listeners as Ksenia Strizh, is an uncharacteristic personality for the show business environment. Direct, simple, open to communication, not eager to earn all the money in the world. Her way of life is interesting for representatives of the yellow press, because you don’t have to think up a lot - the basis for the “burning” article can be taken simply from her life and embellished. For example, in many interviews, the phrases “drink beer in the evening with friends” and similar expressions related to alcohol slip through. And voila! Here and there, poor Ksenia is beginning to be "treated" for alcoholism. But what can we say about her for sure?
Ksenia Strizh: biography
Perhaps you can start with your parents. Ksenia’s father is the People’s Artist of the RSFSR, Pan the athlete from the squash “13 chairs”, Yuri Vitalyevich Volintsev. In an interview, Ksenia admitted that she was always not very comfortable because of the popularity of her father. Going abroad, my father often brought all kinds of souvenirs and things that were hard to get in the Soviet space, and gave them to friends and classmates of Xenia. That is why there was an unfounded feeling that peers tried to get into the company of Xenia not because of love for her, but because dad would definitely hand over something to the guest. He said that in this way he tries to exclude the possibility of theft of his daughter's personal school things due to envy. Although, notes Swift, it did not help much. She recalled a funny story when one boy stole an eraser from her at school and ate it, because it smelled very strongly of strawberries.
The main communication took place with the mother, as the father of Ksenia Strizh was constantly busy, was away. Nevertheless, both parents, and from an early age, were engaged in her education and planning for future life, including the choice of a profession. Just what is there to plan if Xenia initially showed herself as an independent and decisive person?
Separation from the parental wing into adulthood
How Mom and Dad wanted their Ksyusha to be a stewardess on international airlines! .. And what was their disappointment when her daughter decided to go to the theater, following in the footsteps of her father. Parents were even more shocked when, at eighteen, she announced her marriage. The first man who was noted in her passport is now known as Isidore, a black monk on the island of Konevets. And then, when the young Ksyusha was only 18 years old, and he was 24, his name was simply Igor. They studied together at the Shchukin school, and, despite the age difference, according to Ksenia, it was true love. Divorce ensued due to the large distance between the spouses. After Igor completed his studies at the school, there was a distribution, and a residence permit was necessary in Moscow in order to stay working in the capital. Ksenia’s parents refused to help in this regard, because of which she was left without her husband at her side, and without communication with her parents.
Before becoming famous and getting on the airwaves, Ksenia managed to work in the field of not the most prestigious professions, for example, a janitor or dishwasher. Later, there was participation in the theater studio, although it did not bring much satisfaction to the girl. Pride and self-will were never allowed to ask the famous pope for help. She lived on a scholarship and on part-time jobs, getting out as she could, on her own, and nothing more.
The will of chance
Once in a company, one acquaintance mentioned that they were looking for young broadcasters on Europa Plus radio. Ksenia, realizing that she had nothing to do in films, although she had starred in several films before, decided to try her luck. Is it worth saying that they accepted her?
Nickname Selection
As Ksenia Yuryevna Volyntseva herself said, her name does not bother her at all, on the contrary, she is proud of her. But for the radio format, a set of her name and surname was complicated. To a sufficiently long name, it was necessary to pick up something short and consonant. After trying out short words, many of which were quite humorous, they settled on the pseudonym “Swift”. The listener should have some kind of association with the voice from the speakers. So why not associate it with a bird?
Personal life after the first marriage
The radio host never really hid her fans. As Ksenia herself said, who cares about her men if there are no famous names among them?
Nevertheless, one famous name crept into the list, and it was none other than Andrei Makarevich. They lived together for four years, but after these years, Swift realized that Andrei was not trying to create a family nest with her as full as the girls imagine him. Moreover, recalling those years, Ksenia said that Andrei’s house was constantly filled with guests, and many of them were unfamiliar to her, and this annoyed and drove him crazy. Makarevich was opposed to moving from a country house to Moscow. These and many other little things influenced the fact that they decided to leave. But at the same time, both managed to maintain friendly relations, and at any moment they can rush to each other to help.
They said jokingly that they had apparently met early. That's when they hit 60, then they will probably be able to create a full-fledged Soviet family.
Is Ksenia Strizh married now? Children, family - all this is not included in her plans. In many interviews Ksyusha was asked a question about this. To which the negative answer always follows: "I have never had a desire to fertilize." Moreover, according to her, the “prince” with whom she would like to start a family, fry cutlets and raise his children has not yet appeared in her heart.
Friendship between a woman and a man
Among the friends of Ksenia Strizh, the majority are male. Apparently, the character and behavior of the radio host play a role in this.
For many, her style is a clear definition of the concept of "unisex." Male reasoning, living in a female body, which is most often dressed up in trousers or jeans. Although Ksenia herself does not completely agree with this. In her wardrobe, frequent guests are both skirts and dresses. Yes, and she looks equally harmonious in any outfit.
Career
Ksenia also tried herself as an actress, TV presenter. On television, she managed to be the host of many television shows, such as Night Rendezvous, Ksyusha’s, 50/50, How to Find a Husband, and others. But this path was not for her. It is very exhausting busy schedule. Therefore, Swift returned to work on the radio, and since 2014 has been leading her show on “Spring FM” - not, of course, such a popular radio channel as “Europe Plus”, “Autoradio” or “Radio Chanson”, but this activity brings her pleasure and harmoniously blends with life.
Here is such an interesting person - Ksenia Strizh. This person is full of positive and energy. We wish Ksenia to remain so always!
