I am sure that all complaints regarding me were initiated from Ukraine.

I just heard the latest joke about my hair: 'Do you know what that is on her head? It's a steering wheel to drive the state.

Everything that I have is natural - braid, nails - I practically never use cosmetics. They often ask me in the provinces about my braid.

The post-Soviet mafia wove a spider's web of dirty money around the world. Where better to attack it than to start with the Ukrainian criminal heavyweights - the 'family' and its closest circle?

I know the Russian political elite has got used to the Ukraine suffering from an inferiority complex, but I want this to disappear from our relationship.

I think women have to change their hairstyle from time to time.

The old bastions of the post-communist regime collapsed before my very eyes. The monsters who had kept Ukraine in a criminal state left the stage.

But, something has to be worked through formally as well as emotionally. Now, when those two things come together I've got something, I think, that I can be proud of.

There is so much falsehood both at home and at school. At home one must not speak, and at school we have to stand and tell lies to the children.

My family and I are heartbroken after hearing the news that more than 100 innocent children and teachers have lost their lives...

However now we can create a sound that can truly startle someone and in terms of sound effects I think the environment that we are in now has improved dramatically.

The thing about many celebrities - not all - is that they're fantastic actors.

I really felt sometimes like I was physically pulling the plot, and it was heavy. I'm sure it didn't look great that I was going into my dressing room at lunch.
