"It's not me!" Star namesakes who are confused all the time

Usually people are proud that they have namesakes or namesakes among famous people. But there are problems between the stars in such cases, especially if they work in the same field, as, for example, the daughter of "Ippolit Matveevich" — Yuri Vasilyevich Yakovlev, and the performer of the role of investigator Kamenskaya.

Actors, TV presenters and singers complain about the difficulties they had to face because of absolutely identical surnames.

Ekaterina Volkova, who appeared in the early 90s in various TV series, in particular, in Next, is better known for not her roles. She married Eduard Limonov, an outrageous and scandalous writer. However, in 2006, another Ekaterina Volkova became popular — the star of the TV series "Voronin", which caused confusion.

It turned out that the trouble happened to the namesake. When Katya got married and then gave birth to a child, everyone congratulated me again — both friends and journalists.

Many believe that TV presenter Yana Churikova is the daughter of actress Inna Churikova. The external similarity is also to blame for this.

The daughter of the People's Artist Yuri Yakovlev on the passport is Elena. However, she had to take a different name for herself because of a namesake who played the role of a prostitute in the movie "Interdevochka". In 1989, this tape was watched by more than 40 million viewers. Therefore, Elena Yakovleva became a star, and her namesake changed her name to Alena.

She told me:

Singer Yulia Kovalchuk honestly admits: "I am not personally acquainted with the actress Anna Kovalchuk, but I really like how she plays."

And although Julia 's fans no longer confuse her with Anna, comedians periodically joke about this topic. For example, Ivan Urgant, in a conversation with a hockey player, said:

The famous presenter Andrey Malakhov once in the talk show "Let them talk" was indignant: "I'm already tired of repeating that with Gennady Petrovich Malakhov we are just namesakes!". When the medicine man appeared on television with his program, both he and Andrei were constantly asked if it was thanks to each other that they became famous.
