Natalia Medvedeva. Biography

Natalia Yurievna Medvedeva born in the spring of 1985 in Serpukhov. Her father was an engineer, and her mother was a school director and taught German. Natalia's older brother is Andrey. The family lived in the small forest town of Chekhov-8, and Natalia attended numerous clubs since childhood: music school, dance, folklore.

Ten years later, her parents moved to Odintsovo, and Natalya became a student at Lyceum No. 6 named after Alexander Pushkin. In 2002, she graduated from school with a silver medal.

Natalia Medvedeva. Creative path

In 2007 Natalia Medvedeva received a diploma from the Faculty of Restaurant and Hotel Business and Tourism at the Russian State Trade and Economic Institute. As a student, she appeared in several episodes of the Megapolis team, played for the RGTEU team and created her own Glamor team, paired with Marina Bochkareva.

A year later the girls joined Evgeny Shevchenko and Alexander Gudkov and the team “Fedor Dvinyatin” was formed, which entered the KVN Major League in 2008.

In 2006 Natalia Medvedeva became a participant in the Made in Woman project, in which several witty girls joked in the stand up genre in the small Moscow cafe “Manner”. Then Natalya Yeprikyan invited her colleague to take part in a completely new television show Comedy Woman. Its premiere took place in the fall of 2008 on the TNT channel.

– I take some traits, inclinations and manners, of course, from myself. But much of what the viewer sees is exaggerated. If I were like this in everyday life, I would have been taken to a mental hospital long ago. Although I know people who call us crazy, but they themselves behave in ways that we are not even capable of on stage...

Natalia Medvedeva left the KVN team “Fedor Dvinyatin” to devote herself to performing within the project Comedy Woman and theater rehearsals. In 2010, she received three roles at once in the production of “Lucky Number,” later renamed “Looking for a Wife. Inexpensive!

TNT channel stars also took part in the comedy performance: Oleg Vereshchagin and Marina Fedunkiv. The plot is based on the story of a businessman Igor, who really wants to get married and arranges a test for each potential bride - he pretends that he lives in a modest one-room apartment and earns a pittance in the pension fund department.

– This is a cute family comedy. It has nothing to do with Comedy; there is no sharp humor here. An ordinary, very funny performance that theatergoers will enjoy. A performance is a large form; we are still accustomed to miniatures. Still very interesting. It turns out that the lack of education does not hinder, but even helps, because many actors are forced to stay within limits, cannot do something beyond their limits, or open up. But we work differently. In general, KVN!

In September 2016, the show “Ice Age” started on Channel One, in which she became a participant Natalia Medvedeva. The artist performed in pairs with figure skater Maxim Stavisky.

Then Medvedeva appeared in the comedy films “New Year's Marriage”, “What Men Do”, “Corporate Party” with Nikolai Naumov, Ksenia Sobchak and Maxim Vitorgan in the leading roles. In 2014, a contract was signed with Natalia to participate in the lyrical comedy “30 Dates” from a student of the famous director Alexei Uchitel Taisiya Igumentseva, who noted that the role of the main character of her film was literally copied from Medvedeva.

Then the artist was invited to film the comedies “Decent People” directed by Klim Poplavsky and “I Remember - I Don’t Remember!” ", which also starred Polina Maksimova, Konstantin Kryukov, Anna Khilkevich, Lyudmila Artemyeva, Anna Ardova, Vadim Demchog, Alexander Demidov and others.

Natalia about personal restrictions (February, 2016): I don’t act in sex scenes, I don’t undress and I don’t kiss. Maybe I’ll take the risk of acting for Playboy when I’m 65, because I’ll be an incredibly pumped-up woman with inserted breasts and butt. But for now I will leave everything for my family, my husband, I will keep this secret. Because any actress can always undress. This is the last point she can take. And I will take it with my talent.

Moreover, the star

Even compared to other KVN and Comedy Woman participants, Natalya Medvedeva clearly stands out for her recklessness. Her images are distinguished by provocation and a genuine riot of emotions. However, this is exactly why hundreds of thousands of viewers in different parts of the CIS love her.

The future star had a chance to appear on stage for the first time as part of the “Fedor Dvinyatin” team. Subsequently, there were performances in Comedy Woman and some other projects. But what kind of person is hidden behind those crazy images that Natalya Medvedeva presents to her viewers? We will try to figure this out today.

Childhood of Natalia Medvedeva

The future celebrity was born in the small town of Serpukhov near Moscow. Her family was no different from many others: her father worked as a simple engineer, and her mother was a German school teacher. When the girl was not yet seven years old, her parents decided to move to another city near Moscow - Chekhov. This is where the future famous artist spent her childhood.

When the lesson is boring Natalya Medvedeva (Shurochka)

From early childhood, Natasha showed a penchant for a variety of eccentricities. As a primary school student, the girl attended a dance section, a singing choir (performing mainly folk songs), and also took an active part in various productions and school holidays. In addition, at the insistence of her parents, the girl attended music school. However, classes had to be interrupted due to another move.

This time the city of Odintsovo became the “home” for the future artist. Here Natalya Medvedeva began to attend Lyceum No. 6, but due to a change of place of residence, she could not find herself in the new team for a long time. She became withdrawn, unsociable and did not show her creative abilities in any way. During this period, she threw herself into her studies, which ultimately allowed her to graduate from the Lyceum with a silver medal.

Having received her diploma, Natasha thought about enrolling in a theater school, but at the insistence of her mother she soon abandoned this idea and submitted documents to the Russian State University of Trade and Economics. Here Natalya began to comprehend the nuances of the restaurant and hotel business. However, this was not the most important thing - at the university she began to play in KVN for the first time. It was the Club of the Cheerful and Resourceful that predetermined the course of her entire future life.

Career of Natalia Medvedeva in KVN

As a university student, Natalya Medvedeva began to often perform with various KVN teams at various competitions and festivals. In 2003, she appeared in several issues of the Megapolis team, but more often worked with this team as a props manager.


In 2005, the artist began performing in the junior KVN leagues together with the Glamor and Fedor Dvinyatin teams. It is worth noting that with the last named team, Natalya Medvedeva went through all the levels of the hierarchy of the Cheerful and Resourceful Club. She performed in the Northern League, the League of Moscow and Moscow Region, and then in the Premier League and the elite division of KVN. Despite conflicting reviews from some members of the jury, the team became extremely popular among spectators and at the end of the 2009 season made it to the finals of the KVN Major League, where they took third place.

Natalya Medvedeva herself received several personal awards. The most significant of them is the “KVN Girl of the Year” prize awarded to her in 2008.

Natasha’s career on the stage of the Cheerful and Resourceful Club was extremely successful, but soon she left the Fedor Dvinyatin team to perform in another project - Comedy Woman, which began airing on the TNT channel.


Natalia Medvedeva in “Comedy Woman”, a new stage of her career

It is worth noting that Natalya Medvedeva for a long time combined performances in KVN with concerts of the “Made in Woman” project (original name “Comedy Woman”) and left the “Fedor Dvinyatin” team only after the comedy show began to be broadcast on the TNT channel.

As part of this show, the girl got the image of an absolutely crazy and completely uncontrollable person who often shocks the audience with her unexpected antics. As Natalya Medvedeva herself notes, she first tried on this stage role in one of the numbers of “Fedor Dvinyatin”. Initially, it was planned that the “freaky person” would not stay in the life of the artist and the entire team for long. However, the image began to develop and “live its own life.” At the moment, he is the artist’s calling card and it’s quite difficult to imagine a girl in a different role.

Natalia Medvedeva constantly communicates with fans through social networks. The girl posts personal photos on her own account in “

Like many artists who have achieved success in the humorous field, ex-participant of Comedy Woman Natalya Medvedeva began her climb to fame from the stage of the Merry and Resourceful Club. She had to come a long way from a simple girl from the suburbs to a comedian known throughout the country with a crazy role. Years of participation in the comedy have labeled her “crazy” and “uncontrollable,” but is Natasha really like that, and what lies ahead for her?

The biography of Medvedeva from the Comedy Woman begins in 1985, immediately after International Women's Day, a joyful event occurred in one simple Russian family - a long-awaited daughter was born. At that time, Natasha’s mother taught German to schoolchildren and acted as director, and her father worked as an engineer. The family already had one child - Natalya's older brother - Andrei Medvedev, who was partly responsible for the formation of his sister's perky and sometimes cocky character.

The future artist spent her entire childhood in the small town of Chekhov-8, where, in addition to secondary school, she received a music education. From an early age, Natasha established herself as a very active and creative child. She preferred dancing, choral singing, and participating in school concerts and other events to going out with friends. It is obvious that already at this time the artistic spirit was trying to express itself.

Natalia Medvedeva in her youth

In 1997, the whole family moved to Odintsovo, Moscow region. Such a change could not but affect the girl. Natasha entered the Pushkin Lyceum and plunged headlong into her studies. At the same time, she continued to receive a musical education, but did not develop as much creatively. The result was not long in coming - after 5 years the girl graduated from the lyceum with a silver medal and a clear plan for the future.

Contrary to her heart, after school Natasha entered not a theater university, but an economics university, where she became a specialist in the restaurant and hotel business and tourism destinations. But already in her second year of study, the girl stopped fighting her creative inclinations and began playing in the university Club of the Cheerful and Resourceful. At this time, a turning point comes in the biography of Natalya Medvedeva from the comedy Woman, which will determine her entire future life.

2003 - Natasha “shines” as part of the Megapolis team, in which she mainly performs the duties of an assistant.

2005 - the girl tries to break into the Moscow League as part of Glamor, and after failure she begins to play for "Fedora Dvinyatin", where she shows herself as a talented artist.

Career

In 2006, the aspiring comedian was noticed by the creators of the television show “Made in Woman” and invited to participate in the project. For several years, Natasha was torn between filming and participating in KVN, especially since in 2007 she had to write a diploma at the same time. However, she was able to achieve success in each of the areas of activity - she successfully graduated from the university, a year later received the unofficial title of KVN girl of the year and became a regular participant in the show “Made in Woman”, which soon gained popularity under the name “Comedy Woman”.

By the way, many fans thought that the girl was quite short. This opinion was formed due to the fact that while acting on stage the actress constantly grimaces and bends over a little (or a lot). In fact, Natalia Medvedeva’s height is 1 meter and 71 cm.

In 2008, Natalya Medvedeva from the comedy Woman appeared on television screens in the main cast of the project and finally left the stage of the Cheerful and Resourceful Club.

Participation in “Comedy Woman”

In the comedy Woman Medvedeva got the role of an uncontrollable and somewhat crazy girl, which she successfully implemented in all the miniatures. It must be said that the public’s attitude towards this image was ambivalent, probably like any other role of comedy comedians. Most fans of “Comedy Woman” liked the image of Natasha, but there were also those who considered the role annoying and very overacted.

One way or another, all viewers of the comedy know that the girl can no longer be found in her favorite cast. So where did Medvedeva go from the comedy woman?

Career continuation

While participating in the comedy show, the girl did not stop the development of her career for a minute, and it was the advancement in this direction that became the main reason why Medvedeva left the Comedy Woman. In 2010, Natasha was invited to play in the play “Lucky Number”. The famous comedian did not refuse and, despite the lack of acting education, performed three roles at once.

Two more years later, that is, in 2012, Natasha Medvedeva from the comedy Woman reappeared on the theater stage, but in the production of “What Men Want.” An excellent game strengthened the girl’s position in acting circles.

In September 2012, the cartoon “Wreck-It Ralph” was released on television, in the voice acting of which Natalya played a significant role.

It is worth noting that 2012 was a very productive year for the girl, because in December she starred in the film for the first time. The debut took place within the framework of the film “New Year's Marriage”.

This was followed by an equally productive 2013, during which Natalya managed to star in a film, play a major role in the television series “Shurochka”, take part in recording a song and filming a video. And she combined all this with work in the comedy.

At the turn of 2013-2014, it became clear that it was simply impossible to work at such a frantic pace and it was time to choose what to do next. As a result, Natalya Medvedeva left the Comedy Woman and never regretted it. In 2014, the film “Corporate Party” was released on wide screens, in which the girl got one of the main roles. And after that, Natasha became the host of various projects, took part in several shows with stars, and tried her hand at directing.

Personal life

While devoting strength to her work, the comedian did not forget about her personal life. In 2012, she married Sasha Koptel, better known as the captain of the STEPiKO team. The couple tries to hide their personal life, but they still report significant moments to the press. So, in 2015 it became known that the young people had a son, who was named Ilya.

Natasha Medvedeva does not change her principles - she works tirelessly and tries to be on time everywhere and always. And, I must say, she does it very well.
