Guess who: who were the Ukrainian stars at New Year's parties

 Now they are performing at corporate parties and starring in New Year's and Christmas programs. But many years ago, the stars of Ukrainian show business, just like us, played a bunny, a chanterelle, a snowflake and even a Cheburashka at school matinees. We found archival photos of celebrities in cute and funny children's New Year's looks. Remember who had similar Christmas tree costumes in kindergarten?

Elena Kravets

One of the most charismatic showmen of Ukraine, Elena Kravets, at matinees in kindergarten, played not just anyone, but the Snow Maiden herself! She was entrusted with such a branch role because of her good memory and blonde hair. It was the hair that caused the acting fiasco at an older age: Lena's hair darkened, and she was “lowered” from the granddaughter of Santa Claus to an ordinary snowflake.

Evgeny Koshevoy

Elena Kravets' partner in the studio "Kvartal 95" Evgeniya Kosheva in childhood did not escape the fate of most boys. He, like many others, had white ears trimmed with rain on his head, and was appointed to the role of a hare.

Vladimir Ostapchuk

Showman Vladimir Ostapchuk did not escape the fate of a hare. Classic ears, white jumpsuit, ubiquitous rain and gym shoes - this suit is familiar to almost all modern men "over 30"

Alyosha

The girly classics of the genre are snowflakes. Our mothers made such a suit “out of nothing” in just a few hours. Nevertheless, every girl felt herself the most elegant and beautiful in him. And singer Alyosha, the smile court in the photo, was no exception.

Tayanna

Another snowflake of the Ukrainian show business is the singer Tayanna. True, this photo is not from a kindergarten, but rather from a school matinee. At such serious events, you can't get by with a white sundress. Parents had to buy a lush white dress and an original head ornament for Tanya.

Vlad Yama

Vlad Yama was lucky: at one of the matinees he got a "real" (not homemade) suit. True, I had to play the role of Cheburashka, and judging by the photograph, Vlad was not particularly delighted with this. But with his fur ears and overalls, he favorably differed from bunnies.

Katya Osadchaya

Katya Osadchaya from childhood did not like to be like everyone else. For the new year in the senior group of kindergarten, she chose an unusual costume. “Everyone was snowflakes, and I was a fox,” - this is how the star signed an archive photo on her Instagram.

Jamala

The singer Jamala was also “not a snowflake” in kindergarten. She was dressed up in a strong and bright squirrel costume. It is now such costumes - a common thing. And at that time, against the background of "man-made" images of gauze and rain, Jamal the squirrel was definitely a queen.

Bassoon

If for a girl at a matinee the ultimate dream is the role of the Snow Maiden, then for boys it is the image of the New Year. It was in this image that the performer Oleg Mikhailyuta (Fagot) once appeared. In the photo, he is 8 years old - that is, he reached the main role at the Fagot holiday already in elementary school.

MELOVIN

The same image, but ten years later, went to the singer Kostya Bocharov (MELOVIN). Judging by the hat on which the numbers are embroidered, he also symbolized the New Year in his blue satin suit. The photo shows that the main role did not delight the child. Or he didn't really like the neighborhood of the red-haired Santa Claus.
