From childhood, he dreamed of becoming an artist since childhood, therefore, enrolling for a tick to the pedagogical institute, secretly filed documents and guitis. And came! Parents then did not speak with him for half a year, but it seems that this soft and cozy person has a unleabeable rod inside. By the time of receipt of the cinema diploma in the country, it was finally collapsed, and perhaps Sergei Majorov would replenish the army of the unemployed actors of the generation, if Anna Nikolaevna Shatilova did not intervene in his fate. The famous Soviet announcer invited Majorow to try himself on television. So he was in the film of the CT, from where his career started. Today in his baggage five statuettes "Teffi" and a huge number of interesting projects. Sergey is a real workaholic. Perhaps, therefore, he has a fat cross for his personal life. "After a short student marriage, I still go to enviable grooms, with a spoiled nervous system and highlightedness," our hero laughs.

1. "I am with my brother Alexey in kindergarten, I am seven years old, he is two. We were born in the Moscow Region Military Town Monino, where all the boys dreamed of becoming cosmonauts, and all the girls were astronaut wives. Cosmos surrounded me from childhood. I have seen calmly walking in our town of Vladimir Janibekova, George Grechko, George Besome. It was he who, by the way, told me a pioneer tie ... I didn't imagine my life outside of space, I watched all the films on this topic, believed that someday would definitely have a web to the stars. And when now on TV talks about the crisis in this industry, my mood will deteriorate wildly. "

2. "To the stars I still flew, but the earth stars became part of my profession. At this picture, I am with a fantastic artist with love Ivanovna Virolainen, one of the participants of the famous "Indian Summer" project, which was published on the TV channel "Home". I love this little fragile woman who is soon seventy five years old, but it looks like an eighteen-year-old student - gentle, slim, with a stunning voice. Thanks to her, I realized that any wrinkle of the artist, any intonation is part of her fate. Our heroines are not just a kinobogi, but some megagalaxies! "

3. "On this favorite photo - my mother Nadezhda Aleksandrovna. She is an incredibly charming and young man. In his youth seriously engaged in sports, was a candidate for the master of sports in sports gymnastics. But when I learned that I will have, I decided to leave the big sport, despite the brilliant prospects. I'm kidding that I spoiled her career. She says seriously: "You and Alesh made my life happy." In childhood, as a lullaby, she sang a "song about each other" from the movie "Path to the Wharf", I adored when she read out loud. Mom loves to travel. She traveled polim. And the best rest for her is to collect mushrooms. "

4. "On the island of Bali, I am ready to come again and again. For me, this is an absolute place of power. I love meditate there, go to spa treatments, which there is a huge amount. After two hours of massage that you are doing in four hands, I want to fly, and you feel the same air as this paper snake. There are amazing sorcerers of philosophers, stunning designers, musicians and artists. Each time, coming from there, I bring some picture or an elephant from the Eucmena tree, which I am given, just out of a sense of sympathy, for happiness. This is the island where good will be fed out from everywhere. "

5. "Despite the fact that I am in the winter hat, the photo is done in July. This is South Africa. I am on Safari in the national sanctuary "Sabi Sabi", which translated from the language of Zulus means "carefully, carefully!". This is a real piece of wildlife, untouched Bush. Traveling on a small jeep, here you can see the passing road of the lion. And the lion, as we explained, is practically safe, he can absolutely ignore you, because twenty hours per day he sleeps, and four - plumby walking. Hunt and bring it the booty of lioness. This is whom we must be afraid. Once in their surroundings - you will definitely become someone breakfast. For me, a trip to South Africa is a complete revolution of consciousness. I was among wild elephants, rhinos, buffaloes, hippos, but I was not scary. I understood that these powerful animals are non-aggressive if you do not touch them. Guy, be polite. But it is worth feeling the star, start dominating - you will be flooded. "

6. "My favorite image of the neck-chatting. After the end of the theater Institute, I was infrequently made to go out on the scene. But thanks to the artist Sergei Shanovich, who came up with a wonderful campaign for the CTC channel, managed to shine ancient. Cinema I adore since childhood. At the museum of aviation in our city, shooting was often shown - as a rule, movies about the war. In 1978, Evgeny Matveyev, Evgeny Matveyev, removed the mass scenes of the paintings. We are with the boys, as usual, we arrived on the bikes to look at it. And suddenly a assistant ran to me: boy, do you want three rubles? She planted me under some kind of cart and said: "You sit and shout out loudly, and then two aunt will resort and take you." The shooting began, I did not shift because I was asked, and from horror - everything was rummaged, then I came running aunt and dragged me somewhere. Then I was given three rubles, and I took them home to my mother. Valery Sklitne and Lyudmila Gurchenko turned out to be these aunts.

8. "I am with my very close friend Alexey Druzhinin. Lesha was a CT speaker, a big star. In October 1993, after the events at the White House, he led a concert with the participation of Boris Yeltsin. It was Lesha that was the lead that, after shelling, "Ostankino" imported there on the armored personnel carrier so that he discovered the broadcasting of the first channel. He was not six years ago. He walked home, attacked him in the yard, struck, stripped, robbed. And, unfortunately, no one helped. Having lost consciousness, he died of blood loss, just frozen ... It's a big grief for me. After all, Lesha brought me to once working on the radio, was the first producer of "stories in detail." In many ways, I consider it my teacher. "

9. "This Slonihi is called Mandy, she lives in Zambia. Many in this country have utility farms: someone has cows, someone has pigs, buffaloes, and here are our guide with a simple Zambian name John four elephants. In the photo - Mandy with her elephant, in fact, someone wounded her, John has been keen on her for a long time, and now she lives in his aviary. John allowed me to feed to Slonich, and the picture was captured by an absolutely live natural reaction, when I saw her huge mouth and was really frightened. As a result, instead of shifting her carrot, I look at what is happening in her mouth. "

10. "The third of our 2007 TEFI Award, and we have five of them. The program "Stories in the details" became the laureate of this premium four times in a row, that only "ProjectorParisHilton" was managed. We worked for a day, understood that we were doing everything professionally and efficiently, so for us the receipt of "Teffi" was already part of the annual ritual. We knew that we did not have competitors, and felt very kaifo in this regard. We liked to be the kings of the prime, keep the attention of the audience and know that the queue of stars are built into the program. It is a pity that from this year the competition is not conducted and such an important thing as a professional television premium, has become a victim of official disassembly. Sad that we were deprived of this holiday! "

11. "This is the place called Mandalay - Mecca, in which Buddhists are striving around the world. Here is the statue of Mahamuni - the lifetime embodiment of the Buddha, she and a half thousand years. Standing at this statue, rubbing tiny gold grains into it, I asked love, health, wealth to my friends and everyone I love. And at the exit I was surrounded by Burmese monks, beautiful, with incredibly lightweight faces. They shuffled me, began to be photographed and show increased interest. The translator explained - it turns out, I look like a Buddha. The same round, open-face and good smile. "

12. "Working from the set of the film" New Year's Shatta ". This is a musical New Year's story, filmed by the director Evgeny Bedalev. On January 1, 2010, this film literally blew up the audience. I was invited to invited me back as a star so that I play the role of the director of the store and, together with Kirkorov, Stotska, Lazarev, Zverev performed a piece of the song "While the watch twelve beating." This is my first acting experience after graduating from the Institute in 1990. Alas, in those days the films were not filmed, oranges were kept in theaters, so I did not have the movie. But it happened with television. "
