It was talent and hard work that became the main keys on her path to fame. Today Svetlana Khodchenkova is in great demand and needs no introduction. She has virtually no failed projects. Despite her rather young age, the actress managed to shine not only in domestic cinema, but also in Hollywood.
The childhood of Svetlana Khodchenkova
Svetlana Khodchenkova was born in Moscow on January 21, 1983. The future actress spent her childhood in the village of Zheleznodorozhny near Moscow. The mother raised the baby alone - the father did not make any attempts to get to know his daughter until she came of age.
Trying to provide her only daughter with a normal existence, her mother grabbed any job - builder, janitor, cleaner. As a teenager, the girl, understanding what her mother was going through, began to help her. But there was still only enough money for the essentials, and there was nowhere to wait for help.
Sveta tried her best not to upset her mother again. Therefore, she brought only good grades from school and actively participated in the life of the class. Dreaming that her daughter would receive a good education and a prestigious profession, her mother transferred her to one of the capital’s lyceums. The diligent and well-mannered child was accepted without problems.
But Sveta herself did not expect the difficulties she would have to face at the new school. The main problem was that her classmates there were the children of fairly wealthy parents. Every day, self-doubt grew in Svetlana’s soul, and in order to overcome it, Khodchenkova filled out an application form for Slava Zaitsev’s modeling school.
When the girls were accepted there, she finally believed in herself. Gradually, complexes disappeared, confidence in the future and even the first pocket money appeared. When, after several months of working in Japan, Sveta brought back money that was unimaginable for her at that time - a whole thousand American dollars, she fulfilled her mother’s long-standing dream and installed a telephone in the apartment.
Svetlana’s modeling career developed very well, but when her age began to approach adulthood, unequivocal proposals began to be heard more and more often. Brought up on strict moral principles, she could not come to terms with the seamy side of a modeling career and made the difficult decision to leave this business.
