What I love about ugly celebrity stories is the truth. More specifically, honesty. The masks have been torn off, and, as Polina Gagarina sang, there is no more drama. You can not pretend and say to each other in the face everything that has been covered with a veil of beautiful words and fake smiles for so long. Many believed that Alexander Gradsky would bypass the fate of other deceased celebrities with an inheritance, which Andrey Malakhov and company are discussing live. But it was not there! But now it’s not even about the inheritance, but about the one that was in the thick of things. About Marina Kotashenko, who was lucky (or unlucky) to be young and beautiful.
In an interview with the program “Oh, everything!” 2016, which is now being replicated, Gradsky said one sad thing that he clearly foresaw:
“I began to consider how she would cope with life when I died. Now she has confidence that tomorrow nothing will happen that cannot be solved. And if I'm not there - which is a natural process - she may have some problems that she can not solve as easily as I can solve if she has them when I'm around. I have a regret that this will happen anyway, and that she will be left without me. I'm trying it somehow... don't teach, but... so that she somehow adapts to some things.
Oh, Alexander Borisovich... After all, you knew everything, you understood everything, but, apparently, you didn’t think through much. It's good that at least they managed to register officially with the mother of their children by jumping on the bandwagon of the outgoing train.
A couple that is "not a couple"
While Gradsky was alive, this misalliance (both age-related, social, and purely external) was rubbed only on Internet forums and in comments with star gossip in popular magazines. As soon as he was gone, they began to talk about it loudly from the TV screens. And it would be okay only third-party "experts" in the form of psychologists, forensic experts and neighbors. In this choir there are close friends, and relatives, and people who enter the house of the artist, whose doors he opened for them along with his soul.
The most surprising and inexplicable is the position from which they consider the newly formed widow, who, at her 37 or 41, continues to be called a young wife with a rich star husband. She, they say, fell on the head of a people's artist, whom she mercilessly twisted, shackled, entangled, deceived and killed.
Difficult Marina and poor rich Gradsky
The editors of Malakhov's program caught up with experts in the studio, one of whom saw Kotashenko's Adam's apple, which testifies to her masculine character. This means that it is not so simple, this Marina of yours! They brought up the archives from the modeling past, unequivocally hinted at certain “talents” of an attractive Ukrainian woman, which the middle-aged tenor could not resist. As they say, à la guerre comme à la guerre. And the sisterly “this marriage is invalid, she married a sick person to herself” is simply beyond good and evil ...
Poor Yorick. That is, Gradsky. The one from which the entire “Voice” trembled, bowing its head before its musical and human authority, with which it drove through everyone like a caterpillar tank. Although he was not Alain Delon, he enjoyed himself at any age and weight, was self-confident, and somewhere arrogant and harsh, which turned many away from himself.
Let's be clear, gentlemen! Most men, regardless of age, appearance and social status, are flattered by the presence next to them of a pretty young girl of model appearance. He's not original. Like Grachevsky, Dibrov or Tolmatsky. Only those immediately got married, and the maestro "sailor" for almost 18 years to make the mother of her two young children an honest woman on the eve of her departure.
Silence is gold (and diamonds)
This woman lived quietly for many years with a well-known and wealthy man, practically without protruding anywhere. She went to social events with him, appeared several times in TV shows. But she never shone, did not declare herself as someone more than Gradsky's companion, did not jump on the sofas of the talk show, where she is not even now. Not yet.
But she could have gone the way of the widow of Dmitry Maryanov, her compatriot psychologist, who desperately and militantly waved her saber on all channels, honestly and loudly regretting that she “did not push the topic with legacy."
Whatever happens within this family that never hung out their underwear, the way a buzzing hive of friends and relatives of Gradsky, to whom experts adjoin - dishonest and ugly. At least in relation to his memory.
