Representatives of different professions believe in certain signs. Students call for luck at midnight before the exam, But the greatest number of signs exists among representatives of creative professions. Surely this is due to the fact that these people have an incredibly mobile psyche, and it is important for them to receive support from higher powers. Today we want to recall the most incredible superstitions that exist among artists, as well as ask about the personal signs of famous people.

Stage signs

The signs of theater actors are invariably associated with a respectful attitude towards all objects that surround creativity. Of course, this primarily concerns the text of the play: in no case should it be dropped. However, if this did happen, then you must immediately cover it with your fifth point. Even if the manuscript fell into a puddle on the street, you should still sit on it. After a few minutes, you can rise, but only after you firmly squeeze it in your hand. Strange as it may seem, everyone, young and old, believes in this omen of the stage, because a negligent attitude to the "holy scripture" threatens to disrupt the performance. The same punishment can overtake the whole troupe if one of them spreads make-up. Another terrible sign: you should never look in someone else's mirror if the artist is making up. It is believed that in this case, the owner of one of the main subjects of the profession will suffer a serious misfortune.

Also, artists are very careful about soap, especially if they brought it to work themselves. You shouldn't give it to your colleagues, even if they really need it, and take it back out of this room. By the way, about the dressing rooms themselves. You probably won't be surprised to learn that no self-respecting actor will agree to prepare for an important performance in room thirteen. As well as fashionable hotels, theaters do not have premises under this number. And on the very door of the dressing room you will not see any funny pictures and images - either this sign was invented by the cleaning ladies and administrators, or it distracts from immersion in the image, but decorating the entrance is considered a bad omen.

Well, one more belief that we have remembered concerns the repertoire itself. One of the most popular plays for staging - Shakespeare's tragedy "Macbeth" - received a very bad reputation. Its mysticism lies in the fact that a frivolous attitude to a work inevitably leads to accidents. So, you can't even pronounce its name aloud - this can lead to the closure of the theater. And even more so to whistle or hum melodies.

Beliefs on the set

Despite the fact that cinematography is a little over a hundred years old, nevertheless its representatives also managed to establish a number of laws. The main sign is associated with the most important person on the set. If the director is not there, then in no case should you sit in his empty chair, otherwise misfortune will happen. Young people are immediately warned about this, because experienced artists claim that the omen works. Therefore, so that confusion does not happen by accident, the surname of the owner is always written on the back of the director's chair. Another important belief concerns the actor's fee. The money received from the work on the film should in no case be spent before its release. And even if the artist still could not resist and purchased things for his personal wardrobe, then they should also be dressed and worn, only after waiting for the premiere. Otherwise, as they say, the purchase will not be good, but bad.

There are also signs regarding frivolous behavior. For example, many directors believe that peeling seeds during the filming process can lead to the failure of the film. Well, the famous comedy master Leonid Gaidai demanded that there should be no laughter and even more laughter during work, otherwise the viewer would not appreciate the movie joke. And now a bit of real mysticism. Not every artist will agree to act in a coffin. However, on this account, the acting environment came up with a ritual-amulet. If, nevertheless, the actor needs to play the deceased, then a bottle of vodka must be placed under the pillow in the coffin. After completing each take, the actor needs to smile and show the operator his tongue. Well, at the end of the shooting day, this bottle of intoxicating drink is given to colleagues, so that they drink to the health of the artist-"deceased".

Signs from personal experience of celebrities

The king of the Russian stage, Nikolai Baskov, admitted that he certainly observes the beliefs associated with bad omens. Once he was going to an important meeting, but bad luck - a black cat crossed the path to the singer. The golden voice of Russia had no choice but to change its route. And even though the path turned out to be almost a kilometer longer, and the rendezvous was under the threat of being late, nevertheless Nikolai did not risk it. The singer also remembered a case when he lost his family decoration. He got the golden cross from his grandmother and was considered a kind of amulet in the family. Therefore, for some time Basque was afraid to even leave the house.

Apparently, the dislike for fluffy black creatures is firmly rooted in the acting environment. Actor Alexei Chadov also has ambivalent feelings for such cats. Another sign shared by the movie star is that he will never lie down to rest with his feet towards the exit.

Singer Larisa Dolina told reporters a story after which she is wary of leaving things bought at flea markets in the house. Once from a trip, she brought an interesting statuette. She portrayed a pagan god and literally bewitched the singer. However, the purchase did not at all bring the family harmony promised by the seller. On the contrary, the family members noticed that they had headaches and their health worsened. The “wrong” amulet had to be evicted from the house, and surprisingly everyone's health returned to normal.

Natasha Koroleva believes in numerology. And she is convinced that the fame and success in her career are directly related to the change of her name. Thanks to her friend, she found out that her own surname Poryvai did not in any way favor the fact that music producers believed in Natasha's talent and beauty. According to the singer, it was with the adoption of the surname of the Queen that the girl became famous.

But Irina Allegrova sincerely believes that you can easily spoil a photo. Therefore, she very carefully approaches the photo sessions. And at her concerts, the security monitors not only order, but also so that the audience does not use cameras.

Oscar-winning director Woody Allen believes his success stems from his habit of wearing clothes inside out. But he would never wear even underwear topsy-turvy.

Secular beauty Paris Hilton believes that if you make a wish at 11.11 p.m., then it will definitely come true. And in order not to jinx it, she always knocks on wood.

American actor Marlon Brando helped his friends get out of trouble so much: he gave them ostrich eggs. The Godfather star believed that the eggs of this bird attracted good luck and were able to end the lingering “black streak” in life.
