On account of this actress more than 60 works in films, about 20 roles in the theater, a victory in the TV show "Dancing with the Stars", many awards and the title of Honored Artist of Russia. Irina Pegova knows how to enjoy what she does and is used to never complaining about life. Her level of happiness does not depend in any way on her personal life. She was happy with her marriage, but after the divorce, the actress became much happier. And soon she surprised her fans with an incredible transformation.

Little Alla Pugacheva

She was born in the city of Vyksa, Nizhny Novgorod region in a very simple family and spent a lot of time with her grandparents in the village of Tupik, Ryazan region, which Irina Pegova still considers her "Place of Power". At the same time, she had no idea that she could someday become an actress. However, she loved to sing and in childhood she constantly played Alla Pugacheva. But at the same time, she did not attend any circles and did not even take part in amateur performances.

But while grazing sheep, the girl read them aloud poems, most often by Sergei Yesenin. She also fiddled around in the beds all the time, giving an interview to an imaginary journalist at that time, or singing with her relatives. And once she took part in the local competition "Morning Star", however, she recalls her performance as a great failure. But after that she was invited to a music studio. The leader Sergey Dyatlov simply could not help but notice the girl with good natural qualities.

Irina Pegova submitted documents to the theater school in Nizhny Novgorod precisely in order to study the voice there. The dream of becoming an actress was born to her only after she saw her first performance in the theater in her life, when she was already a student.

Stolen diploma

Not so long ago, Irina Pegova admitted that she simply … stole her first diploma. In an interview with one of the popular publications, Irina Pegova said that while studying at the Nizhny Novgorod Theater School, Pyotr Fomenko came to them for a show, who came to Nizhny Novgorod on tour with his students. Seeing the work of Irina Pegova, he told her to dare. And the girl soon went to Moscow to try to enter GITIS on the Fomenko course. And she was accepted despite the stolen diploma.

In fact, the girl, from the moment she entered the school, worked here as a cleaner. The family could not financially support Irina, and the young student came to the school at seven in the morning to clean the entire first floor, including the utility rooms, toilets and the director's office. She knew in which locker the diplomas were and just took hers. Nobody even knew about it.

Irina Pegova believes that she was very lucky at the very moment when she got on the course of Peter Fomenko. He had a special approach to teaching his students, and he very often praised them, seeing each of them as a future genius. Film directors came to Fomenko's student screenings, and they chose students for their theaters and for their films. After appearing at the show of Alexei Uchitel, Irina Pegova got her first film role.

Thanks to her filming in The Walk, the actress won the Golden Eagle Award for Best Actress and met her future husband.

Happiness independent of marital status

Irina Pegova went to the Warsaw Film Festival to present the film "Walk", and Dmitry Orlov - the film "Sky. Airplane. Young woman". Later, the actor confesses that he has long drawn attention to his charming colleague, but the opportunity to get to know each other fell out only in Warsaw.

Their rapprochement was rapid, and soon the young people began to live together, and then they legalized their relationship. They seemed almost an ideal couple, raised their beloved daughter Tatyana, and in 2011 shocked fans and colleagues with the announcement of the breakup of their family.

The divorce turned out to be loud and not too pretty. Former spouses blamed each other for ruined relationships, divided property and tried to determine with whom their daughter would be better.

Only nine years later, Dmitry Orlov admits: the divorce was entirely his fault. He behaved selfishly in marriage, never supported Irina, even during that difficult time when she lost their unborn baby. And the passion for alcoholic drinks did not add strength to the marriage.

Fortunately, over time, the former spouses found an opportunity to build the right relationship that would not affect their daughter. Now Irina Pegova and Dmitry Orlov can calmly communicate, and 14-year-old Tatiana enjoys spending time with her mother and father.

Irina Pegova herself has repeatedly said that her happiness does not depend at all on marital status. After the divorce, she became free and happy. And it seems that the registry office is no longer in a hurry, although she always has enough fans.

There is no limit to perfection

Divorce Irina Pegova turned out to be to the face: she lost weight and prettier. The actress was very thin as a child, but already in her student years she recovered and since then has been fighting an endless struggle with extra pounds. She tried many different diets, lost weight on her own and with the help of nutritionists, but as a result, she found her own nutrition system that allows the actress to keep fit.

She began to drink a lot of water, and her portions are now the size of a fist. Irina Pegova even allows herself cakes for the night, but at the same time she knows for sure: sweets will then have to be worked out in the gym.

In general, the actress is always ready for a makeover. When, after graduating from GITIS, she was constantly offered the roles of ordinary Russian women, she, fearing to forever remain in this role, unexpectedly cut her hair very short and was happy when the directors stopped telling her before filming that she did not need makeup and that her hair should not be let down.

Taking part in 2015 in the project "Dancing with the Stars", where Irina Pegova, together with Andrei Kozlovsky, took 1st place, the actress constantly demonstrated the most incredible and unexpected images.

In the fall of 2020, Irina Pegova became a member of the Ice Age project, paired with the world pair skating champion Alexei Tikhonov. And again, the actress appears in front of the audience in different images, demonstrating excellent physical shape and the ability to convey different images and characters.

The actress considers herself to be a completely happy person and is sure: happiness is a sense of self. Irina Pegova never falls into despair and does not suffer from insomnia. And she sincerely believes: in her life she will never experience anything that could lead her to depression and universal sadness.

Irina Pegova believes that she cannot be lonely by definition, because she has a daughter. But the actress Lyudmila Khityaeva at one time consciously chose loneliness. And even she herself found a new wife for her own husband.
