Being a TV presenter is incredibly fashionable today. Everyone tries to try themselves in this profession. However, not everyone can become a real star. Only the most talented are able to touch popularity.
Russian TV presenters are very popular and recognizable personalities. The viewer is interested in their lives no less than the lives of politicians or show business stars. For most people, they become idols and role models in style, behavior and communication, etc. That is why presenters constantly feel responsible for their work and strive to meet high standards.
TV presenters, men and women, play a significant role in popularizing television projects, as well as in conveying any information to the viewer. Interest in the program directly depends on the host of the program and how bright he will be.
Presenters both in Russia and abroad try to constantly be on top so as not to disappoint their viewers and fans. They must always be responsible for their actions. And this applies to both men and women. At the same time, there is always fierce competition in this industry. New stars appear on the horizon of show business every now and then. Some of them quickly fade, while others, on the contrary, bask in the rays of glory. Undoubtedly, a lot depends on fortune, but most of it depends on the TV presenters themselves, on their hard work, patience and, of course, professional skills.
Like people in many other professions, television stars often face various obstacles on their way: intrigues, gossip, rumors. Getting airtime on one of the leading TV channels is not so easy.

Boris did not disappear from television, he simply became invisible - since May 2001, he became the presenter, director, scriptwriter and general producer of the television game "What? Where? When?"
The audience hears only his voice. In the first time after the death of the creator and permanent host of the program, Vladimir Voroshilov, the editors hid the name of the new presenter from both viewers and experts: his voice was distorted using a computer.
Alla Volkova was the host of the romantic television show "Love at First Sight" along with Boris Kryuk.
After the closure of this show, Alla married for the third time, works as an editor of all programs produced by the production center "Igra-TV" - "What? Where? When?", "Songs of the 20th Century" and " Cultural Revolution".

Vedeneeva left television quite suddenly. While vacationing in London, the presenter was delighted with him and decided to extend the trip for a week. I called my work and asked for a few days off.
In Ostankino, no one shared the presenter’s joy about England; Tatiana was categorically offered to return on time or... write a letter of resignation. Vedeneeva did not take the threat seriously. And they took her statement quite seriously.
Now Tatyana is engaged in business. One day, her husband brought her tkemali sauce from Tbilisi. The ex-presenter was inspired by the idea of launching the production of tkemali in Russia.

For some time, Igor tried himself in a different role: he held the position of vice-president of the Russian Cultural Foundation, and was the director of the House of Cinema. But television didn’t let me go.
