As a child, Nastya dreamed of becoming a ballerina and even tried to stand on pointe shoes in the famous St. Petersburg Vaganovka. However, high growth prevented me - I had to forget about the career of a dancer. Now many people know Anastasia Drapeko as the host of the talk show (Radio Lighthouse, then Radio Maximum). Asking questions to others, she talks a little about herself. Therefore, the biography of Anastasia Drapeko is unknown to the general public. It can be imagined by referring to the memories of the parents.
Love stories
Anastasia’s mother, State Duma deputy Elena Drapeko, in the past is an actress who played Lisa Brichkina in the film “Dawns Here Are Quiet”. Her paternal ancestors were from Chernigov, but moved to the Urals. Talking about her mother, brought up in a family of Old Believers, she emphasizes her firm character and unshakable moral principles.
Since his father was a soldier, the family was constantly on the move. When she was 16 years old, he was gone and she and her mother were left alone. They lived on her modest salary of a library worker, collected vegetables from her garden.
At this time, the family had already moved to the city of Pushkin near Leningrad, and, having graduated from school, Elena entered the theater institute. Here she met with the future father of Nastya Oleg Belov, who was 14 years older. In 1978, they got married, and on April 3, 1983, Nastya was born.
Everything passes
Oleg Belov’s career began with dancing: in the dance group of the Siberian Folk Choir, in the army song and dance ensemble, in the Operetta Theater and on the stage. Then he graduated from LGITMiK and worked as an actor at the Lenfilm film studio and at the Theater-Studio of the film actor. He mastered many musical instruments - learned to play the piano, guitar, Russian accordion and others. He wrote poetry.
Unlike his wife, he was not able to show off in the title role. He is a classic supporting actor. Perhaps this fact also contributed to the fact that their relationship did not work out.
Remembering family history, Belov tells that the mother-in-law constantly intervened in their life, in her own way wanting to make her happier, and each time it ended in scandal. In addition, Elena was carried away by party work and finally retired from her husband. When Nastya was about six years old, the couple broke up. After the divorce, Elena did not allow her father to meet with her daughter.
Anastasia Drapeko: biography, personal life
When the parents divorced, grandmother began to educate Nastya, since Elena Drapeko did not have enough time for this. She had to work hard to provide the necessary standard of living for her daughter and aging mother. When there was no filming, she traveled across the country with creative meetings and became increasingly interested in politics.
Looking at her mother, Anastasia Drapeko also wanted to become an artist, but Elena managed to dissuade her. She decided that Nastya is too smart for the profession of an actress, and even a leader - she went to grandmother as a character. They agreed that the specialty of a journalist would be more suitable for her - there is an opportunity to develop intellectually and at the same time express herself in creativity, communicating with people.
Anastasia Drapeko, with a light hand of Elena Grigoryevna, graduated from the journalism department of SPbGUP with honors. She managed to work on television, and then preferred the radio broadcast, becoming the chief editor and presenter of Radio Mayak (A. Timofeev and A. Drapeko show, the entertaining show “Wit Russia”). For some time she was the host on MAXIMUM Radio (the daytime show “Nuzhdin, Mikhailov and Drapeko”).
