Stars for whom Yeralash became a springboard for show business

It is difficult to find among people living in the Soviet Union at least one person who has never seen the film magazine “Yeralash”. Funny short videos are loved not only by children but also by adults. And it was with “Jumble” that many Russian stars began their careers. Rambler will tell you about some of them and why film magazines are the best possible springboard for them.

Serge Lazarev

One of the most famous examples of starting a career through Yeralash is Sergei Lazarev. He appeared in the 124th episode, titled “Liar”, playing a quiet guy – a young artist who is in love with a girl in his drawing group.

After “Yeralash” he continued his creative career: he performed in the children's group “Fidgets” and then became a member of the pop group Smash!!, after which he successfully developed a solo career. Additionally, Lazarev also represented Russia at the Eurovision Song Contest twice in 2016 and 2019, winning third place both times.

Yulia ROLova

When I was a teenager, the actress played two episodes at once in the series “Jumble”, one of which was “Help Me!” (No. 136). The director liked her performance so much that she was given a second role in another episode – “Mannequin”.

However, contrary to expectations, Volkova did not follow the acting path – she preferred a musical career. Julia became one of two solo artists of the duo tATu. Instead, together with Elena Katina, they shone on stage from 1999 to 2011, after which their group disbanded. However, Volkova continued to sing, although she became less famous.

New cults of show business: which stars have gone into spiritual practice

Alexander Golovin

Alexander Golovin is one of the most famous graduates of Yeralash. He regularly appeared in episodes, then received invitations to participate in television projects and feature films.

His next roles included participation in the film “Bastards”, where he played the youngest soldier, the TV series “Kadetstvo” and in the New Year series “Yolki”. Golovin also appeared many times on the theater stage. His latest works include “Medicine” and “In the Line of Three Elements”.

Serge Bezrukov

Although the actor became famous as an adult, he also appeared in Yeralash when he was young. It was a small episode, but Sergei Bezrukov was mentioned in this list, since he starred in a film magazine even before receiving extensive training in acting.

Then he graduated from the Moscow Art Theater School. Soon, Bezrukov became one of the most prominent actors of Russian theater and cinema. He starred in projects such as “Brigada”, “Officers” and many historical and dramatic films. Later, the artist also opened his own theater, which was called the Moscow Provincial Theater.

Why exactly does “Yeralash” help so many young talents?

The main feature of the television project is that it regularly requires new faces. At the same time, the director does not require any special acting skills from children and adults. And even if someone in the frame makes a mistake, within the framework of the Jumble concept, it still looks natural.

In addition, the humorous short story format allows children to play many different roles – from humorous to dramatic. Such diversity laid the foundation, which can then be developed in any professional direction: cinema, television, music or even directing.
