Why does Glinnikov walk with a stick? New “bachelor” Ilya Glinnikov now uses a wheelchair

On March 12, the fifth season of the show “Bachelor” began on TNT. The main character this time was actor Ilya Glinnikov, who admitted that he was determined to find true love on the project: “I would like to start a family, I would like feelings to happen, but the girls who go to the show “The Bachelor” pursue other goals, as I thought. It turned out that not all of them.”

Ilya took an active part in the creation of the show: he himself came up with competitions, often extreme ones. For example, in one of the episodes he and a participant jump from a parachute over a palm island in Dubai.

There was a price to pay for such a risky competition. So, one of the girls was injured in Sri Lanka. Ilya got it too. He seriously injured his knee - he tore all the ligaments. However, it is not yet known in which episode this happened.

However, the actor does not regret one bit that he chose risky challenges. He is convinced that it was worth it: “It happened this way because you have to pay for love!”

In the near future, Ilya will have knee surgery and rehabilitation. Meanwhile, the country is watching the developments in the show “The Bachelor.” The actor's fans want to believe that he will be able to build strong relationships, without betrayals and deceptions. Indeed, despite Ilya’s opinion that everything can be forgiven, he once admitted that “when you are deceived, life turns into hell.”

The actor appeared in public with a cane.

Some time ago it became known that the new hero of the show “The Bachelor” was the star of “Interns” Ilya Glinnikov. Previously, he had a relationship with Ksenia Rappoport’s daughter Aglaya Tarasova, but the lovers broke up before reaching the registry office. In an interview, Glinnikov admitted that he takes filming in the project very seriously. He considers participation in “The Bachelor” to be one of the most serious tests in his life. Of course, because the actor not only has to test the strength of his feelings, but also sacrifices his health. Like Alexey Vorobyov in the previous season of the show, Ilya Glinnikov suffered a leg injury. He appeared in public with a cane and told fans that anything can happen in the fight for love.

“I’m walking through the TNT office from a press conference, suddenly a shout from the office: “Hello Father!” - Wait, I say, I want to go to your wedding! What about the leg? - Art requires sacrifice, and sometimes you have to fight for Love, what happened is right P.S. Le Havre, old friend better than the New Two,” the actor signed joint photo with Le Havre from the Comedy Club.

Let us remind you that last week they were named

The idea for the "Bachelor" project was borrowed from show The Bachelor, which has been successfully shown on US television since 2002. Both the participants and our viewers liked the program so much that the fifth season of the popular reality show started in March of this year.

Whose heart are the girls fighting for?

The main character and “prize” for girls’ hearts was a young but already familiar actor who starred in the TV series “Interns,” Ilya Glinnikov. Fans of the comedy television project know him as the performer of the role of a kind of major boy, a ladies' man, prone to adventurous acts.

What is the new “bachelor” really like?

What will Ilya be like in his new role and is he the same in life as on the screen? It turns out that the actor is a fan of extreme sports. His addiction played with him cruel joke. While filming another episode for the show “The Bachelor,” Ilya injured his leg. After hospitalization, it turned out that the injury was not a simple bruise, and the actor required surgical intervention because he had damaged ligaments. Now I. Glinnikov moves to wheelchair, and on the knee of his left leg there is a special splint.

Responsibility comes first

But Ilya is a responsible person and decided to continue filming the program so as not to let down the huge number of people involved in the program. As the most desirable “bachelor” to date admitted, this show is perhaps the most serious and severe test in his life. Let us remind you that 25 girls are fighting for the heart of Ilya Glinnikov, but only one of them can ultimately be lucky. If you're lucky, of course...

Last Saturday, May 27, the penultimate episode of the show “The Bachelor,” season 5, aired on the TNT channel. Ilya Glinnikov has decided on the finalists of the project, and on June 3, viewers will find out who the actor will choose - Madina Tamova or Ekaterina Nikulina. However, according to many fans of the show, there is still another girl in the heart of the Bachelor - Aglaya Tarasova, with whom Glinnikov starred in “Interns”. The fact is that he more than once raised the topic of his past relationships in conversations with project participants and spoke of how his beloved betrayed him. Moreover, Ilya even admitted to Madina Tamova that he wanted to commit suicide after learning about the betrayal.

Aglaya Tarasova prefers to remain silent about what really happened between her and Ilya Glinnikov, and about the reasons for their separation. She has long had an affair with the star of the sitcom “Hotel Eleon” Milos Bikovic. However, immediately after the airing of the show “The Bachelor” with the next revelations of her former lover, a photograph of her near a lake on which a swan was swimming appeared on the actress’s microblog, briefly signed: “Swan song about fidelity.” Numerous fans of Glinnikov perceived this post as a mockery of Ilya and bombarded Aglaya with indignant comments about how she could mock her feelings like that.

« I recently watched “The Bachelor,” where Ilya told how he suffered from a knife in the back. I felt so sorry for him, and here is Aglaya Tarasova’s post!” - these are the softest comments on the actress’s microblog. However, Tarasova’s loyal fans immediately came to her defense, saying that no one has the right to judge and condemn the girl, especially since no one knows the whole truth. Some put forward their own assumptions as to why Aglaya left Ilya Glinnikov: “ Or maybe he and Ilya broke up because he drank forever, hung out with friends in bars and at biker rallies. And Aglaya a real man needed, decent looking..." Aglaya Tarasova herself again chose to remain silent.

Let us recall that in 2013, Glinnikov began dating his colleague in the TV series “Interns” Aglaya Tarasova, daughter famous actress Ksenia Rappoport. In May 2015, there was even talk about the wedding of Ilya and Aglaya. The relationship lasted until the summer of 2016, when information appeared in the media that Aglaya had left Ilya for Serbian actor Milos Bikovich (“Duhless 2”, “Hotel Eleon Season 1”). On the eve of the start of the show “The Bachelor,” season 5, the actor dotted all the i’s: “Aglaya Tarasova has had her own for a long time personal life, and I have my own.”

An actor's destiny is life in life. Moreover, the screen one is completely different from the one in reality. In films, he often plays playboys who easily manipulate the feelings of women in love. And in his life he had to endure a lot of suffering. I had to face betrayal, and fight for my beloved, and even choose between love and life itself. He rarely communicates with journalists, but agreed to give an interview - and unexpectedly at home, on private territory. Our conversation became like a revelation for both of us.

— Ilya, you don’t give interviews much, but this takes place here, in your apartment. Did you need support from your native walls?

“I don’t need anyone’s support, but I really need rest.” I'm just under time pressure. Forty-eight hour shifts on the show “The Bachelor” on TNT. I also broke my knee. And I am to blame for this myself, because I entered the project after the operation, which took place in early September. This is reality, and there can be no double. I should be in the frame. And we came up with a lot of extreme sports. So what I was afraid of happened happened. I broke my knee once again and, as you can see, I walk with a stick. After filming, everyone will go to rest, and Ilya Glinnikov will go for a second operation to heal his wounds. Well, maybe in Honeymoon- if we get lucky. (Smiles.)

— With what feeling did you go into the project? It seems to me that this is a test for a normal man.

- With fear. Because all his life actor Ilya Glinnikov played womanizers, majors, some sweet boys. Everyone thought I was handsome. At one time I even wanted to get a tattoo on half my face and neck so that they would stop seeing me as handsome. And this will sound strange now, but my main fear in life is to approach and meet a girl.

- Why?

- Here we need to start from the beginning. I have difficult fate. My father was never in my life. They met his mother when he was studying in Moscow to become a neurosurgeon. But they were not destined to be together. Everything was decided by the Georgian diaspora. That's why I have my mother's last name. But I remember from my distant childhood how suitcases of roses arrived for my mother... And my father lived his whole life alone in Georgia, with a dog. We talked to him on the phone once, I was already eighteen years old.

When I turned seven, I got a stepfather, the father of my younger brother Vladislav. Oleg is educated, intelligent person, member of the Union of Artists. He insisted that I study at the gymnasium... He taught me to draw. No one at school believed that these were my drawings. I consider Oleg my friend, he instilled in me a taste for many things in life. Most of the books you see here in my office were given to me by him. But I grew up without a father. I have always been a frail guy, short in stature. I often got into trouble in the yard. And I was still such a lively person, everything seemed interesting to me. I remember one day some grown-up boys came back from fishing. I run up: “What kind of fish do you have? Did you catch a lot? And they put some half-dead crucian carp under my shirt. They also gave me a kick. How upset I was that there was no one to stand up for me! I shouted: “I’ll call my father now!” - “You don’t have any father!” And I walked down the street, smearing my tears. Probably, it was at that moment that I realized that if I couldn’t stand up for myself in this life, no dad would help me. I enrolled in the taekwondo section, then began to practice wushu, and even received a red belt. Won the championship Tula region in kickboxing. So now I don’t fight on the street, my hands are recognized as edged weapons.

- What does fear of girls have to do with it? The story of the relationship between your father and mother impressed you so much strong impression?

“There wasn’t a day when my mother didn’t remember him... Probably, this is some kind of internal fear that my personal life might turn out unhappily. What if circumstances turn in such a way that my children will be left without a father. At some moments I really missed his male advice. I confess honestly: I am afraid of women because I am afraid of disappointment and deception. Was taught by bitter experience. At the age of sixteen, I entered into a relationship with a girl who was eight years older than me. We danced together. I came to Moscow at the age of sixteen with one backpack and danced hip-hop on the street. I don’t want to disturb my hearts now ex-lovers, but she is probably the only one with whom I could start a family.

- Why didn’t it work out?

“It’s my own fault that we broke up because I entered theater school.” Studying there took up all my time. And her parents were simple hard-working people. They didn't take me seriously. In addition, our age difference seemed significant at that time. Then I had college love. Then - a tragic relationship with one actress. You know, there is love that inspires, and there is love that destroys. She and I looked into such an abyss... There was a moment when I almost killed myself when she said: “I don’t need you anymore.” And only when I woke up in intensive care, I realized that I had to stop - for the sake of my family, for the love of my loved ones, for God. Live on, breathe. Today I am grateful to this woman for the experience I received. To rise to a new level of spirituality, one must fall. It was a very good vaccination. But with all this experience, I am sure: love is the only thing worth living for.

— But, perhaps, you are already afraid of building relationships with actresses?

— I think it all depends on the person. For me, there is an example of an actress whom I respect immensely. This is Chulpan Khamatova. She has succeeded both in her profession and as a mother - she has three children. This is a wonderful, pure, enlightened person. I'm happy that we had the opportunity to work together on the same stage. In the play “Joan of Arc” I play the monk Dominic, and Chulpan plays Jeanne. In general, it is very difficult for us, media people, to meet our soulmate. Someone else’s commercialism forces us to be on guard all the time. Someone is looking for a money bag in us, someone else - he sees an opportunity to touch popularity, fame. But, probably, I’ll get married soon.

- Are you seriously?!

“I can’t believe it myself, but perhaps I have finally found happiness.” “The Bachelor” is a show that allows you to build boundaries between you and the contestants. But at the same time, you can see the essence of the girls. I'll be honest: I'm not like the previous Bachelor. And I immediately said that I would kiss only one girl on this project, who I really liked. My path is a path of mistakes, disappointments and hopes. But in the end, it seems to me, here I met the person with whom I want to move forward in life. Although my mind resists: you cannot be happy, you have suffered all your life. But maybe miracles are still possible? And perhaps I will propose to this girl, because I already dream of having a family. I abandoned this project three times. The first time I received an invitation, I decided to see what kind of show it was. It lasted me six minutes and fifty-three seconds. After which I turned off the TV, called the agent and asked if she was crazy. She replied that her job was to convey the proposal. Then the attacks from producers began. I refused: “Guys, you chose the wrong person! I'm not a playboy, not a heartthrob. I’m completely different in life, I’ll ruin everything for you.” But in the end they persuaded me. On the first day of shooting, I told the girls: “For me, it’s blasphemy that you girls are fighting here for a man. I have to do this. Let me pursue you." I have different feelings towards all the participants in the project, but from the very first day I singled out one for myself... In general, I call this show Loner - a loner. A bachelor does not need love, he is not looking for it, everything is fine with him. And the loner dies without her. Look at me from the outside. I am a successful actor, producer, I have money: an apartment in the center of Moscow, a convertible - you can envy. But in reality everything is cold to me. And now there is hope for new love, and life was filled with meaning. It was as if something had opened up in me - creative energy was overflowing.

- Ilya, but in two months it is impossible to get to know a person so well as to decide on such an important step.

- Time will show. I'm in no hurry. I have a lot of experience, it’s no longer easy to deceive me. And I want to introduce the girl to my “heavy artillery” - my main women. So far I have two of them: a grandmother who buried all her children, including my dad, and a mother who dedicated her whole life to us - me and my brother. The only thing missing is her, my wife. And when she appears, she will stand above all others - at an unattainable height.

— You didn’t go to “for a long time.” eligible bachelors».

- You know, they write all sorts of things about me: “Glinnikov is so and so, he has a lot of fans.” Nothing like this. When I was in serious relationship, then he behaved honestly and did not betray anyone. Although the situations were quite spicy. (Laughs.) I won’t mention her name, she is also an actress, we acted together. After filming, I drop her off at home and she starts undressing right in my car. I say: “What are you doing! I have a girlfriend that I love.” She doesn't give up, she comes in with kisses. He got out of the car himself: well, sit here. Ten minutes pass, then twenty. I look out the window: “I actually need to go home. If you don’t come out now, I’ll call a taxi.” She jumped out and slammed the door. I'm offended. Of course, she was spectacular and bright. And I would like to one day tell my son: “I never cheated on your mother.”

- Ilya, they say that a man is looking for a woman who looks like his mother...

— I love my mother very much. But God forbid I have such a wife! (Laughs.) My mother has so much blood mixed together - there are Cossacks and Jews. According to the horoscope, Sagittarius is also a fiery woman.

- What kind of person do you need?

— In Emir Kusturica’s film about Diego Maradona, I heard the phrase that behind every successful man there is successful woman. I think this is very true. A woman must first of all be wise. One will turn you onto the path of creation, and the other will destroy you.

- What do you want to achieve, where should it take you? real woman?

“I want to succeed as a man, the head of a family, the father of at least three children.” As for profession, I don't want to do popcorn movies anymore. Only if in auteur cinema. Or in your projects. I myself produce, write scripts, and film. Now I have an interesting idea to make a film about my life. And my younger brother will play me.

— As far as I understand, you have a very warm relationship with your mother and brother. Having moved to Moscow, you moved your family here.

— At the age of sixteen I left home for Moscow. And he achieved everything himself. I already understood then that I wanted to connect my life with creativity. (At that time, Glinnikov participated in a theatrical dance show, played in the musical. — Approx. ed.) But for a very long time I refused to enter the theater school, because they told me: you will never be able to combine work with study. I was still working. In 2005, I took my family to Moscow, and I had to live on something and pay for rented housing. And I made this decision because my younger brother - he was eight years old at the time - jumped from the garage on a dare and crushed his heel. I realized that he got involved with bad company. And I decided that it was time: we need to live in the same city. Even then I felt my responsibility. And Dmitry Kharatyan, my older friend and colleague, said that I would be a complete idiot if I didn’t get an acting education. He even offered to pay for my tuition. I remember how we consulted with my mother on what to do. The amount is not small. And then (apparently this was a sign!) I received a good advertising contract. Thus, the problem with tuition fees was resolved. And Marina Grigorievna Golub prepared me, may she rest in heaven. She always said that it is easier to teach a dancer to play than a singer. We are plastic, we already control our body. You could say it's mine godmother in the profession.

— Was it not easy for you both to work and to study?

“Sometimes after a night shift I arrived at the institute at six in the morning, the guard opened the storeroom for me, and I slept there until classes started. At nine in the morning my classmate Andrei Samoilov arrived, woke me up and said: “Ilyukha, let’s go to the speech.” And so I, all rumpled, entered the classroom, and the teacher Alexander Rogozhin said: “Ilya, I have the impression that you just woke up.” “You’re not mistaken,” I answered. It was difficult. But it’s okay, I managed. And to many guys from my hometown Novomoskovsk helped me move here, one even entered GITIS. And my younger brother is now studying to become an operator at VGIK. And I believe it a brilliant photographer, one of the best in Moscow.

— Ilya, for some reason it seems to me that in life, in everyday life, you are a difficult person.

- And I don’t hide it. But I'm quick-witted. Now you see in front of you a tired man after a difficult filming period, and even with a sore knee. I have a lot of things, different energies. I just learned to drive a right-hand drive manual car with a power of three hundred horsepower. And a psychologist I know told me that in this way I put the second hemisphere into work.

-Are you left-handed or right-handed?

— I am equally good with both hands. In general, answering the question of who I am, I say: I am a person, a soul, an essence. I used to consider myself bad and thought that the world was like that. And now, it seems to me, I have become better. And the world already seems kinder. (Smiles.) In life there is always a choice and the opportunity to bring light. So I am a beacon that reflects the light that we managed to find.
