The singer changed beyond recognition and did not hide how. The valley has been losing weight for the last 30 years, but has not achieved the same result as now even in its younger years. This time the People's Artist turned to specialists. Larisa Andreevna, tired of the different versions of her transformations, sorted everything out herself.
In six months she lost 21 kg. In the fall, Larisa Dolina returned from Sochi, where she spent her vacation without denying herself anything: “I gained a decent amount of kilograms. I returned to Moscow and went to a clinic for metabolic correction, took tests and blood. I was given a list of foods that I personally absolutely cannot eat. To those foods that are prohibited, an allergic reaction occurs in the body. I started eating according to the “green” list - only what is allowed.”
Here are the rules that made the Valley lose weight.
First: interval nutrition. There are two times a day at 9 am and at 3 pm.
Second: follows the recommendations drawn up based on the results of the tests. For example, he does not eat: berries, fruits, carrots, onions, broccoli, eggs, caviar, confectionery, dairy and fermented milk products. Allowed: meat (except beef, veal), poultry, fish, tomatoes, cucumbers, red peppers, beets. The list is long. It has a lot of weird rules: crabs are allowed, but shrimp are not. You can't have tea, but you can have coffee.
However, doctors warn that such experiments are possible only with the permission of a doctor.
Elena Korikova
In the biography of Elena Korikova, according to her, there was both bad and good, and every moment of life was taken for granted. The actress believes in God and does not forget about biblical truths: the test is given according to one’s strength and only to those who are able to withstand it. The image of a sophisticated, defenseless young lady is deceptive. A harsh Siberian childhood fostered in Korikova a punchy character bordering on stubbornness.
Childhood and youth
Elena was born in April 1972 in Tobolsk. Parents Tatyana and Yuri divorced when their daughter was still little. Until the 2nd grade, Korikova lived in the village with her grandmother, a teacher at a local school. Later she and her mother moved to Rostov.
There she attended the Epos theater studio, but decided on her future career by accident - she saw an advertisement in the newspaper about recruitment to the troupe of the city drama theater. Actors were invited regardless of their level of professionalism, and Korikova passed the casting.
After graduating from school, the girl passed exams at VGIK and studied in the workshop of Sergei Solovyov.

In 2005, she gained national fame after the release of the series “Poor Nastya” about a girl who grew up on a noble estate as a rich heiress, while in fact being an ordinary serf. Elena's filming partners were Daniil Strakhov and Dmitry Isaev.
Korikova turned into a secretary in love with a rich but lonely businessman in Dmitry Dyuzhev’s short story, which became part of the lyrical comedy “Moms.”
“Threads of Love” has a similar plot: according to the plot, the characters of Korikova and Anna Arefieva show signs of attention to the director of a fashion house played by Dmitry Ulyanov.

Creation
The creative biography of Elena Korikova began in 1990. At that time, the girl was a first-year student in the acting department, and she did not have much experience. However, such formalities did not become an obstacle.
Korikova’s debut work was the role of Masha in the adventure comedy “Ha-bi-assy”. The young actress’s first experience becomes successful. Less than two years later, she was invited to play the role of Irina in the film “I Promised, I’ll Leave.”

Elena's first serious work took place in 1995. At that time, the girl had not yet graduated from the theater institute. Impressed by the talent of the young artist, director Alexei Sakharov invited Korikova to play the main role in the lyrical comedy with elements of melodrama “The Young Lady-Peasant Woman”.

The plot of the film was based on the work of the same name by Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin. The girl organically fit into the image of Lisa Muromskaya. Members of the professional community and ordinary spectators were pleasantly surprised by the artist’s work.
The film was a great success. And Korikova’s own work was awarded several awards. Including she received “Nika”.
In 1995, the girl graduated from VGIK. Her diploma work was the role of Nina Zarechnaya in the production of “The Seagull”. The premiere took place at the Sovremennik Theater. Both ordinary art lovers and professional critics highly appreciated Korikova’s acting.
Over the next two years, Elena Yuryevna played in several more films. Including in a crime drama produced in Ukraine called “Dead Man’s Buddy.” The artist’s last work in the old millennium was a film adaptation of the story by I.S. Turgenev "Moo-moo".

In 1998, Elena Korikova left for the USA, where she tried her hand at local cinema and modeling. There is very little accurate information about this period.
Around 2000, she returned to Russia. Almost immediately after arriving home, Korikova got a job at the Sovremennik Theater. She worked successfully on his stage for the next few years.
Elena Yuryevna Korikova’s track record includes both classical roles and images in modern productions. The largest and most notable works of those years were the performances “Demons” and “Three Sisters”.
Despite her success at Sovremennik, Elena Korikova did not refuse to collaborate with other theaters. She periodically appeared in productions of “Millennium”, “Commonwealth of Taganka Actors” and more.
In addition to the stage, Elena Korikova found time to act in films and on television. After returning, she immediately got down to business.
Real fame came in 2003. The girl was offered a central role in the series “Poor Nastya”. The plot was built around semi-fictional historical events. The basis was not accuracy, but the surroundings in which the actions took place. Korikova got the role of an impostor: a rich noblewoman who was in fact a simple serf.

The project was risky. However, Korikova made the right choice. The television series ran for more than 100 episodes. He became widely known not only in Russia, but also abroad. It appealed to a large number of viewers.
The success was, without exaggeration, deafening. Not the least role in this was played by the acting skills of Korikova herself.
The success of the series made Elena popular literally overnight. Offers of cooperation followed one after another. She was actively invited to appear on television. Korikova did not refuse.
Over the years, she acted as the host of famous programs on major federal channels. Among these are: “Two Stars”, “Dancing with the Stars”, “Fort Boyard” and more.

The next major work was Dmitry Dyuzhev’s almanac “Moms”. The picture was divided into 8 short stories. The project was successful. In the 10s of the new century, Korikova’s career received a second wind.

Personal life
The personal life of Elena Korikova is quite eventful. Her blond hair and petite figure (the actress’s height is 160 cm) attracted bright and famous gentlemen. The actress has more than one serious relationship behind her, and her men have always been of interest to the press.

The girl’s first love was Dmitry Roshchin, the son of actress Ekaterina Vasilyeva and playwright Mikhail Roshchin. The entire acting community watched the relationship between Elena and Dmitry.

The couple turned out to be beautiful, but the artists never got married. According to rumors, Vasilyeva did not accept the girl and forbade her son to marry. As a result, Dmitry abandoned Korikova and did not recognize his son Arseny, who was born after the separation. Now Dmitry Roshchin is the rector of the Moscow Church of St. Nicholas on the Three Mountains, and he and his wife Lyubov are raising 8 children.

After an unpleasant breakup, Elena Korikova officially got married for the first and only time. The actress was married to her husband, writer Dmitry Lipskerov, for only a year.
As Elena later said, passion ruled the relationship between the spouses, and when problems and quarrels began to outweigh the joy of living together, they separated.

The actress’s third choice, director and cameraman Maxim Osadchy, replaced Korikova’s son with a father. Together with her new boyfriend, the actress immigrated to the United States, where she became the face of the Jacques Dessange fashion house and acted in experimental films, but the couple soon returned to Russia.
Elena lived with Maxim in a civil marriage for 10 years. She left her husband several times and returned again, but in the end the family broke up.

This break coincided with Korikova’s filming in the popular melodrama “Poor Nastya,” which gave rise to many theories. Some fans linked the actress’s breakup with the fact that Elena became a popular actress and stopped using her relationship with the director, while others suspected Korikova of having an affair with her co-star on the set, Daniil Strakhov.
The actors denied having a love affair with each other. Strakhov is a married man, he rudely cut off any questions about his affair with Elena.

Subsequently, the actress had an affair with Andrei Malakhov, in which the actress’s fans did not believe. The TV presenter elegantly but spectacularly courted Elena: he gave expensive gifts and promised to propose right from the stage at the TEFI ceremony. But instead, the couple announced their separation.

Elena Korikova was credited with a love relationship with tennis player Marat Safin. The artist told the press that she had met the man of her dreams, but despite this, the romance came to an end.
According to rumors, the athlete’s mother intervened, forbidding him to continue his relationship with Elena due to the age difference - the actress is 8 years older.

Elena's next declared love was actor Sergei Astakhov, with whom the actress dated for 2 years. Then Korikova was often seen in the company of Sergei Chernykh, director and producer of commercials, entertainment events and television projects.

In 2018, Elena was credited with an affair with former athlete and ski instructor Evgeniy Neshchadimov - the actress looked so happy and flourishing in the general photo.
The actress’s bright appearance, attracting the attention of men, raised questions about her naturalness. Internet sites constantly post collections of photographs of Elena supposedly before and after plastic surgery, emphasizing that it is impossible in 20 years to remain the same as in her youth
Elena Korikova
But the artist herself vehemently denies that she went under the surgeon’s knife. Korikova admits that she would never resort to plastic surgery, because, being a deeply religious person, she believes that a person needs to live with the face and body with which he was born.
The touch of artificiality in Korikova’s appearance was explained by the overly bright and specific makeup with which the actress emphasizes her facial features - photos of Elena without makeup rarely appeared on the Internet. The woman demonstrated her natural beauty only on Instagram, when she decided to create an account in 2016.

On the same social network, she announced that she won a lawsuit against a publication that accused her of alcoholism. According to the artist, lawyers are scouring the Internet to identify information that discredits Elena’s honor and dignity. If something like this is discovered, the authors will be in trouble.
Rumors of depression
When Elena stopped running her social networks, began to appear in public less and less, and stopped playing in films, it became obvious that the woman was depressed, and it dragged on for several years. One could assume that the actress simply decided to retire and live away from the noise, but the assumption was refuted by the facts. And this happened when Elena Korikova’s photos from 2021 hit the media, rumors about alcohol abuse and rumors about depression itself were immediately confirmed.
Astakhov left Elena for another woman
Friends and colleagues of the actress said that the woman had a very hard time breaking up with Sergei. The actress did not want to play, did not communicate with anyone and became a loner.
Later, an anonymous person from Korikova’s inner circle said that the woman began to drink a lot. And there was a case when, due to her unpresentable appearance, the performance had to be canceled.
After all, looking at the actress, no one recognized her pretty face or her former beauty. And in this form it definitely could not have been released on stage and shown to fans.
After the breakup, Elena fell into severe depression
Do not forget that the actress has envious people, and they can simply slander the actress. Since her other theater colleagues gave a frank interview about these rumors. Alexander Pashutin said that Lena still works in the theater as usual. He said that in all the time he had known the actress, he had never noticed her drinking too much. Yes, the woman is going through a difficult period in her life, but she is going through it quite well.

The film with which Russian viewers associate Elena Korikova was the series “Poor Nastya,” where Daniil Strakhov became the actress’s partner on the set. Over the course of 127 episodes, fans of the project watched the difficult fate of the pupil of the elderly baron, the serf orphan Anna Platonova. Elena's pretty face and gentle smile suited this look perfectly. In addition to Russia, the telenovela was broadcast in 34 other countries around the world.

Filmgoers will also remember Margarita Shnyreva (“Women on the Edge”) performed by Korikova. The role was difficult; her heroine took the lives of three of her husbands.

Interesting for the actress herself was the role of the writer Lika Vronskaya (“The Kiss of Socrates”), who, together with a criminology professor, unravels criminal cases around ancient works of art.
Theater works
In 2001, having returned from America, Elena received an invitation from Galina Volchek and joined the troupe of the Sovremennik Theater, on the stage of which she played several prominent roles: Pat in Three Comrades; Shatova Dasha in “Demons”; Ninotchka in Anfisa; Irina in Three Sisters.

In 2004, Korikova left Sovremennik, after which she collaborated with the theaters: Kinoaktera, Moscow Independent, Taganka Actors' Commonwealth, and Millennium.
Personal life of Elena Korikova
In the personal life of the popular actress there were disappointments and surprises, downs and ups. Elena Korikova is adored by a large number of admirers of her talent, but often the woman’s relationships ended in nothing. The men left behind only disappointment and a broken heart.
At the beginning of the new millennium, the television series “Poor Nastya” was released on Russian screens, after which the girl became a new sex symbol. Numerous television viewers believed that Korikova was the beloved woman of D. Isaev and D. Strakhov. But it turned out that fans just wanted to think so. For example, rumors about a relationship with Elena made Strakhov angry, since at that time he was already happily married and did not want to give his wife a reason to worry.
Since that time, Elena Korikova’s personal life has been incredibly busy. The popular actress was in romantic relationships with a large number of the most eligible bachelors in the Russian Federation. For example, in 2008, the popular actress met with the popular presenter Andrei Malakhov. Rumors about their imminent wedding kept appearing in the media. But in 2010 it became known that Korikova and Malakhov stopped dating.
Then her favorite men included tennis masters Marat Safin, Evgeny Herts, Mikhail Mamaev, famous film actor Sergei Astakhov, Eduard Suboch, producer Sergei Chernykh, Andrei Chernyshev.
What changes in appearance did I make, the results before and after
Unlike many famous personalities who openly report that they pay increased attention to their appearance, Elena has never admitted this. The actress only noted that normal, healthy sleep helps her maintain her youth.
In addition, she said that she often went to workouts and never went on any diets at all.
However, Elena Korikova managed to look very young even at thirty years old; it was not for nothing that she was often given roles where she needed to play young girls.
Expert opinion Tatyana Somoilova Cosmetology expert
Some experts believe that the actress owes her attractive appearance to plastic surgeons. Fans, on the contrary, are sure that the girl was simply lucky, and nature rewarded her with an almost ageless face. But information is increasingly appearing that Elena Korikova corrected her appearance with the help of plastic surgery.
Face
Those who are guilty of surgical interventions make a variety of guesses about exactly how Elena improved her already excellent natural abilities. As for changes on the face, the most common assumption is that Korikova has enlarged her lips. If you look at the photographs of her youth, you will notice that they were always quite voluminous. However, there is an opinion that the actress did not disdain fillers.
Before and after filler correction
It is worth noting that for quite some time the actress did not appear in public at all. After a long absence, a couple of years ago I managed to take several photographs of Elena Korikova. Fans and Internet users immediately noticed something was wrong: the actress’s face looked swollen and unrecognizable. Now people unanimously began to say that such changes are the result of unsuccessful operations.
First of all, it is noted that the shape of the eyes has been corrected. But not entirely in a positive way: if earlier the actress’s gaze was more open, now the upper eyelid seemed to droop a little. Due to the proposed surgery, the eyes narrowed and the incision became more almond-shaped.
Also, in the last photos we can already say with confidence that the actress had her lips enlarged. Compared to how they look in older photographs, the volume has noticeably increased. In addition, now the lower lip protrudes more under the upper lip.
Another significant change in Elena Korikova’s face, noted by fans, is the corrected oval of the face. If you look closely at recent photographs of the actress, you can see that her cheekbones have become more voluminous, and there are practically no wrinkles on her forehead. All this suggests that Elena began to get carried away with beauty injections.

But the love for injections played a cruel joke on Korikova. The most recent photos of the actress certainly cannot be called successful. In them, her skin looks somewhat saggy, and the bags under her eyes are clearly visible. Experts are confident that all this is the result of unsuccessful injections. But do not forget that the actress is already 45 years old, and such changes in the oval of the face can be explained by natural aging.
Body
There is an opinion that Elena Korikova resorted to one of the most popular plastic surgeries - breast augmentation. In some photographs of the actress at a young age, you can see that her bust looks a little unnatural.
Fans pay attention to the pictures where Elena poses in dresses with a neckline. It is in such photos that the results of the proposed operation are best seen: in addition to the obvious increase in volume, the hollow between the breasts is similar to what remains after mammoplasty
There are also repeated references to liposuction on the Internet. It is said that Elena was almost the first to resort to such a procedure. From somewhere, even the supposed areas from which fat was pumped out - the stomach, thighs and knees - became known. It is not surprising that these particular parts of the body appear, because they are more often than others susceptible to the accumulation of excess volume.

Photos showing Elena Korikova before and after plastic surgery often appear on the Internet. The changes in how Korikova’s appearance has changed are quite noticeable.

The colossal transformation raises doubts about complete naturalness and naturalness.
Changes can be associated with a woman’s age, hormonal changes, health problems, or unsuccessful plastic surgery.

The biography of Elena Korikova as a film actress began quite by accident. After graduation, she decided to go to Ukraine - at that time, Kyiv film studios were filming a lot. While walking around the city, Korikova went to the Kiev Theater Institute and learned about auditions for the role of the main character in a comedy film directed by Mateshko.
The selection for the future star was easy; the famous actor Vladimir Mashkov became her partner on the set. The film “Ha-bi-assy”, which was released in 1990, did not have much success with the public, but during her work Elena gained a lot of valuable experience, which helped her enroll at VGIK for a course with Sergei Solovyov, who was considered one of the most demanding teachers.
The work, thanks to which actress Elena Korikova became truly popular, was released in 1995. In the film “The Peasant Young Lady,” she played the role of young Lizaveta Muromskaya, a young charming girl who dreams of meeting Alexei Beresnev, the son of a landowner living on a neighboring estate.

After the television series “Poor Nastya,” Korikova became a world-class star, because viewers from 33 countries followed the vicissitudes of the fate of the unfortunate heroine. The budget for this pseudo-historical series was over $11 million, and castings took place in 14 Russian cities. Thanks to high ratings, the project was broadcast six times only on Russian channels.
Unfortunately, the continuation of this soap opera was never filmed, although it was announced. A possible reason could be disagreements between the owners of the project, as well as the refusal of further participation in the filming of some actors.
Personal life of the actress
Having looked at Korikova’s biography and filmography, as well as information about her plastic surgery, it’s worth finding out about the actress’s personal life.
Just like her appearance, there is a lot of gossip about the artist’s romances. After the release of “Poor Nastya,” she was credited with having affairs with almost any man with whom she appeared next to in the photograph. In addition, various rumors periodically appeared about the children of Elena Korikova.
Which of these gossips is true? Let's figure it out.
Korikova officially got married for the first time while she was a student. Her chosen one was the famous Russian writer Dmitry Lipskerov. Unfortunately, this marriage soon broke up.
The actress’s new lover was a student of the VGIK directing department, Dmitry Roshchin (son of the famous actress Ekaterina Vasilyeva). It was he who became the father of Korikova’s only son, Arseny. Unfortunately, neither Dmitry nor his relatives wanted to accept Elena and her child into the family. So “poor Nastya” had to raise the boy on her own.
The second husband of the actress and a caring father for Arseny was the creator of video clips, Maxim Osadchiy. By the way, it was with his help that Korikova received many roles in music videos. The couple later divorced.
In the early 2010s, the actress had a long affair with her colleague, Sergei Astakhov. But after a few years, this relationship came to an end.
Today, the actress does not have a permanent life partner, but things can still change. After all, despite her age and not very successful plastic surgery, Korikova is still in demand in the profession and respected by many fans.
Popularity and personal
The actress’s popularity did not increase after filming in the series “Poor Nastya” ended.
Elena's first marriage with D. Lipskerov was not successful. Their marriage ended in divorce. The girl met D. Roshchin after a divorce. And she thinks that he is the father of her unborn child. However, there are many rumors that Roshchin abandoned Elena in her position and did not recognize his son. Her son had the same fate as his mother.
He grew up without a father, but the girl tried to provide him with warmth and care. Her son Arseny decided to test himself as an actor at the age of thirteen, in the series “Captain's Children”, the boy made his debut on the screens, but he decided that acting in films was not for him.
Information appeared online that he was caught by traffic police officers while drunk. The young man was deprived of his driver's license.
Elena lived with Maxim O for a long time. She had the longest relationship with this young man. The girl had many admirers, but not a single relationship led to marriage. Many believe that she washes down bad luck in her personal life with alcohol and this affects the girl’s appearance, because her face very much betrays such addictions. However, Elena herself claims that her son and acting are in the foreground.
Star of the series “Poor Nastya” Elena Korikova
In the telenovela “Poor Nastya” Elena played a young girl of marriageable age, who can be considered at most twenty years old. In fact, even then Korikova was thirty-one years old. It seemed that time had no power over her appearance.

But that was not the case((A recently published random photograph of Lena with a fan produced the effect of an exploding shell on the Internet. After all, the actress is rarely seen in films now, and for most fans she remains the same young girl. Unfortunately, the years have not been kind to her – The 44-year-old actress can no longer claim the title of Russian sex symbol.
