Lydia Ruslanova, Claudia Shulzhenko and Isabella Yuryeva - these celebrities for Natalia Kustinskaya were not distant stars, but friends of parents.
Kustyansky grew up a "greenhouse" child who did not need anything. Parents often took a daughter with them to concerts. Natalia was behind the scenes where his father was preparing for performances, together with Maria Mironovaya and Alexander Menacher.
The girl adopted the best from his parents: from Mom beauty, good hearing and voice, from his father - artistry and fun temper. She was perfectly and without constrained, sang and danced. Natasha parents have not taken away to the usual school, but the musical decade of the name of Gnesins. She successfully graduated from her piano class.
It seems that another choice in the young beautiful Kustyansky, except to become an artist, was not. She did not resist his fate: with ease he entered VGIK and Wahtangovsky Theater School. His choice stopped on the legendary VGIK. Here Kustyansky studied on the course of the great Mkatov actors Olga Pyrisov and Boris Bibikov.

Films
The cinematic biography of Natalia Kustinskaya began when she was still a 4-year student. The famous director Gregory Roshal, who removed the cult drama "Walking on the flour", insisted at the shooting of a beautiful student who met in the corridor of the university. He just took up the continuation of the sensational drama called "Walking on the flour. Gloomy Morning. " Refusal to Roshali did not dare, although students of Vgika strictly-setting were forbidden to enter the filming area before the diploma is given.
After the release of the film, the first lauds were made about the skill of the ascending star of Soviet cinema. Critics welcomed the birth of the Kusty New Dramatic Actress.
It was soon followed by its first marriage, which in many colleagues of the artist caused an acute envy: the famous spouse of Kustyansky became the famous director Yuri Chulukin. But, contrary to many expectations, the husband did not induce the rising star and his beloved spouse star roles in his paintings. She starred only in one of his successful film - the Royal Regatta Sports Comedan Melodrame.
But in the star comedy, Natalia Kustinskaya, who dreamed of the role of Tosi, did not hit. According to one information, its candidacy rejected the art leaders of the film Mikhail Romm and Julius Reyzman, stating that the actress with her appearance is not suitable for the role of modest priests.
For other information, jealous chulukin wanted his spouse to sit at home, providing homemade comfort. It is concerned that Natalia Kustyan was offered to play Anfisa, but she himself refused to be refused, offering Svetlana Druzhinin instead of himself. And Tosya played Nadezhda Rumyantsev, that Kustyan was perceived extremely painful.
But deafening glory still came to the artist. In 1963, a light and brilliant comedy "Three Plus two" Henry Oganen was released on the screens. Here were assembled as the stars in particular Andrei Mironov and the ascending - Natalia Fateeva, Evgeny Zharikov and Gennady Nilov.
After the release of the film on the screens, he instantly turned into a cinema-hit of his time, and all artists woke up famous. Blonde beauty has come bags of letters, and postcards with her image with thousands of ways were sold in the "Soyuz-Protection" kiosks.
"Soviet Bunching Bardo" was grinding from directors. But often the role for various reasons broke off. For example, Leonid Gaiday, who suggested the star to starve in his legendary "Caucasian captive", she refused.
After all, at that time he had already agreed to shoot in another project - Vladimir Motyl Military drama "Zhenya, Zhenya and Katyusha", which was approved by the director without a single sample. But the actress fell ill with inflammation of the lungs and as a result did not appear in any of the named projects.
In 1970-80, the actress was filmed often. But the "loud" projects turned out not so much. Star roles got to her in the cult comedy "Ivan Vasilyevich is changing the profession," where the audience saw the Kusty's mistress of Director Yakina. Then there were the series "Eternal Calls", the drama "Intern" and a melodrama "Shofinger for one flight". But the main roles that the star would confirm the status of the star was no longer.
Who knows how the life of Natalia Kustyan would have happened if she was allowed to play in the German drama "Magic Mountain" on the work of Thomas Mann. Soviet celebrity was invited to the project where its partners had to become Sean Connery and Charles Aznavour. According to the artist, the ban on its shooting was imposed one of the prominent employees of the Almighty KGB.
At the end of the 80s, the actress was one of the other misfortunes. In the musical "Kiss me, Kat" a woman unsuccessfully jumped from the stairs and got a heavy fracture of the hip. After a long period of treatment, a new trouble: when the actress dismissed a huge senbernar, the dog pulled her, and Koustinskaya rolled down the stairs. She barely returned to life in the hospital named after Sklifosovsky.
In the 1990s, the extinguished star began to forget and no longer invited to play movies. Occasionally, it was remembered by journalists. Participation in her difficult fate took few people, among whom Christina Orbakayte and Natalia Varley.
Personal life
Soviet Bardo Bardo was married 6 times. Personal life Natalia Kustinskaya is a separate chapter of it bright, but at the same time a tragic biography.
Her first husband was the senior spouse for 9 years Yuri Chulukin. Perspective and talented, he really liked yesterday's student. But this marriage was only at first. The director was jealous to his wife and dreamed of closing it in four walls.
It was really hard to fall in love with it. At the shooting "Three Plus two" for Kustinskaya, loving Andrei Mironov, managed to captivate with two Natalia, and married Evgeny Zharikov.
And in 1966, the wife learned that the jealous husband of Yuri had a mistress. She immediately gathered things and left the famous director, although he persuaded to return and 5 years did not give a divorce, and his friends and colleagues were twisted with his finger at the temple: to leave Matra, let them and wrong, was considered an extremely reckless act.
For the second time, the actress married Oleg Volkov's external employee. In this marriage at first, too, everything was wonderful. The husband tried not to listen to the gossip and not to notice the fact that his charming spouse persistently care for the eminent colleagues, such as Innokenty Smoktunovsky and Alexey Batalov. Her love sought even the famous singer Muslim Magomayev.
3 years later and this marriage broke up. The reason for this was the "third nelial" Boris Egorov, pilot-cosmonaut, hero of the Soviet Union. According to Kustyanskaya, he did not just calerage, but he pursued her. And the wolves were forced to let go of his wife, although the son of Dmitry had already appeared.
Egorov divorced Natalia Fateeva and eventually adopted Dima, giving him his last name. Personal life of Natalia Kustinskaya and Boris Egorova flowed in one channel for more than twenty years. The artist claims that together they were very happy. But in the end, Egorov changed his wife.
She left again, not ate betrayal. Attempts to make up, undertaken by Boris, a woman rejected. Later she regretted this and admitted that Egorov was the main love of her life. And after 3 years, her former husband died.
But at that time the actress had another spouse - Professor MGIMO Gennady Chromoshin. Rumor, the woman married him to take revenge on Egorov. Chromushkin did not become in 2002: he died from postoperative infection.
In the same scary year, at the end of unexplained circumstances, the only son of Dima died. Later, in one of the last interviews, Natalia Nikolaevna argued that the cause of his death was murder: it was alleged in it before the death of the daughter-in-law, which suffered from drug addicts.
Two years later, the life of Kustyan again made Zigzag: the woman found her short happiness with Vladimir Maslennikov. Together they lived 5 years. But in 2009, Maslennikova also did not.
It seems that at once brilliant artist lay a curse, the consequence of the death of her closest people. She herself called the reason for all his troubled girlfriend Natalia Fateev, who had her husband Boris Egorov.
With the sixth spouse, Stas Vanina, a woman lived only a couple of years and divorced shortly before his death. The last love of the faded Soviet star, according to the TV host Andrei Malakhov, was the poet from Jaroslavl Alexei Filippov, who helped the artist to make memoirs.
