Many do not like journalists. Why? Because they climb into someone else's life? But in fact, to some extent, it is thanks to them that people become popular. In this article we will talk about the journalist Ksenia Basilashvili.
Childhood
Ksenia was born in St. Petersburg in 1973 on June 4. She was a late child, her dad was already over forty at that time. Her father is actor Oleg Basilashvili, her mother is Galina Mshanskaya, she runs the Tsar’s Box program on the Culture channel. Ksenia Basilashvili herself claims to be her father’s daughter. She refutes the view that the children of stars are somewhat different from other children. As a child, she felt her famous surname literally strangling her. The girl said that in childhood she did not know that her father was so popular. She only saw how he sometimes signed autographs. She was never particularly drawn to the stage, but she decided to try it all the same and entered acting after school, without telling anyone. Ksenia studied there for only a year and resolutely refused to follow in her father's footsteps.
Study
After leaving acting Ksenia Basilashvili entered the philological faculty of St. Petersburg University. Her grandmother also studied there. When the girl entered the philological, she called herself the great-grandmother's surname - Tolskaya. No one knew that she was the daughter of a famous actor. And when they came to her house and saw her father, they fell into a stupor.
Job
After graduation, Ksenia Basilashvili decided to try herself in radio journalism. She became a freelance correspondent for the popular radio Echo of Moscow in St. Petersburg.
After some time, Galina Starovoitova was found dead. To investigate and publicize this case, there were not enough journalists, and Ksenia called. She went to the prosecutor's office to interview. According to Basilashvili, she was scared, but she understood the whole necessity of this matter. She pulled herself together and brilliantly performed this task. Thus, the girl proved her professional suitability and showed her skills as a journalist. After Ksenia Basilashvili flew to Moscow and stayed there. She and her father seemed to change places. Oleg Basilashvili, who is a native Muscovite, moved to Petersburg, and his daughter moved to Moscow. In the capital, Ksenia lived in a communal apartment, previously owned by her grandfather, a church architect, and in which, accordingly, Oleg was born and lived for some time. True, his daughter rented only one room.
Father and daughter see each other often when Oleg arrives in Moscow to play in entreprise performances. Periodically, they can also be seen in a cafe in the Pokrovka area. You can see how the daughter loves her father. She recalls their walks in the park, a visit to the Tretyakov Gallery. Ksenia's father instilled a lot of his daughter, including a love of art. The second higher, the management of museums and galleries, received by her, was also chosen under the influence of his father.
