Biography of Brigitte Bardot
Brigitte Bardot was born on September 28, 1934 into a wealthy family that considered themselves true Catholics. They had prominent politicians, industrialists, journalists, actors, representatives of the fashion industry in their house. His father was a retired military man, he spent the whole day at a factory for the production of ammonia and compressed air. Mother, once a failed actress, put things in order in the family all day, taking out her obstinate character on everyone who fell "under the evil hand".

In the family, she did not feel the warm, affectionate attitude towards herself, which her younger sister Marie-Jeanne was endowed with beyond possible. My sister was a beautiful girl, and she excelled in her studies. And the eldest, Brigitte, in her studies barely crawled from class to class, and she did not shine in appearance. Brigitte had a squint, in addition, two front teeth protruded so that they lifted their lips. Much later, the squint disappeared, and her front teeth began to give her some kind of special swelling of her lips, which adorned her, gave her charm, and was her trademark.

At twelve years old, she withstood a huge competition at the National Dance Conservatory. Brigitte Bardot was very fond of dancing. And when she danced all the complexes went away, she felt like a beauty. Her teacher was the brilliant Boris Knyazev, who once danced in the troupe of Sergei Diaghilev. She learned a lot, became graceful, her gait was light, her figure was slim. Unfortunately, I had to leave my studies. But now that she has changed so much, guests who come to her parents began to pay attention to her. She was offered participation in a fashion show, shooting in magazines. But the parents answered everything - No, No, No.

After numerous scandals and hysterics, Brigitte Bardot finally got permission from her parents to shoot in a magazine. Parents allowed, but on the condition that the name and surname will not be under the photo. This is how the famous abbreviation V.V.

Quite by accident, her photo was seen by Vadim Plemyannikov (later he changed his last name to Roger), who worked as an assistant to director Mark Allegre. The son of a Russian émigré who had made a diplomatic career in France and a French woman, he was unusually talented. The versatility of his abilities made it difficult for him to concentrate. He tried himself in acting, and in journalism, wrote a novel. Finally, Vadim ended up with the director Marc Allegre. And when he saw a photograph of a girl with huge eyes, a seductive mouth, innocent and at the same time tempted, Vadim rushed in search of the beauty. He realized that the one that they were looking at today was looking from the photo, now they need it for the role of a new film.

The best photos of Brigitte Bardot.

Brigitte Bardot's height is 170 cm.

The parents did not agree for a long time. - Let your daughter go to film! For them, the work of a girl in the cinema is like becoming a prostitute, it is a disgrace to the family. Grandfather intervened, and now everything he said then many years ago is quoted as saying: “If a girl is destined to become a whore, she will become one even without a movie. And if it is not destined, no movie will help. " Everything. An end was put in the debate. Brigitte was released.

When Brigitte Bardot came to Marc Allegra, Vadim was there, but he did not say anything. He literally ate her with his eyes. Looking at Vadim, she felt that he was drawing to him and at the same time frightening, she felt that she was not herself. And Vadim recalled that he was struck by her regal posture, her thin waist, proud head position.What can you say? It was love at first sight.

They started dating. Soon, Brigitte's parents found out about this and, like all well-bred people, decided to get to know him. Oh God!!! - they thought when they saw who their daughter had chosen. Long-haired, slovenly dressed, without any definiteness in life and work ... Is such a husband needed for their daughter? When he left, his mother even counted the silver spoons. Naturally, after this visit, Brigitte was forbidden to meet with Vadim.

No arguments about Vadim's merits made the parents change their mind. When one evening Brigitte's parents went to the theater, she turned on the oven and stuck her head in it ... Fortunately, the performance was canceled, and the parents came earlier. The girl was saved. She was allowed to meet with Vadim, but the wedding was only after reaching the age of eighteen, and she did not even think about sex before marriage. The last warning came too late, which the parents never found out. Vadim went to work, he really loved his Bree-Brie and tried in everything to be close to her. Brigitte Bardot starred in all the films that she was offered, she was ready for any role. They worked hard and loved each other.

The wedding took place on December 20, 1952. When, after the gala dinner, the young couple decided to retire to the bedroom, the answer followed - only after the wedding. They got married in a Catholic church, for which Vadim had to convert from Orthodoxy to Catholicism.

The newlyweds rented a two-room apartment without any amenities. They were terribly poor. Lack of money, hopelessness, quarrels over trifles, everyday routine - all this gradually killed love. Here you can remember the proverb: "With a sweetheart paradise and in a hut." It turns out this is only a proverb. For the sake of earnings, Brigitte starred in cheap films, in secondary roles. She gradually gained experience, and Vadim taught her a lot, trying to improve her education in theatrical art, but there was no fame. For her sake, Vadim wrote a script in which he wanted to show the whole world what Bree-Bree is - bold, beautiful, free, independent.

Vadim's friend Raul Levi helped him - he became a film producer, found money ... But still, there was not enough of it. In the film And God Created Woman, Brigitte Bardot was barefoot, in a cheap skirt, her hair was done somehow, makeup too - there was no money for a hairdresser, the scenes were filmed against the background of real village streets ... Brigitte's partner, Jean-Louis-Tretignan, is an actor from a little-known theater (and where was Vadim to look for a partner) was with an expressive face, in which Vadim immediately recognized the future "star" and lit it. Gradually, during the filming, Vadim saw how the actors of two lovers played in the film, and how true love arose between them. The film turned out to be something that neither Vadim nor Brigitte dreamed of.

In France, the film went unnoticed, but in America it had the effect of a bomb. Vadim recalled that he wanted to show the image of a brave, free girl with a special character, and the scenes that seemed to him banal were recognized as provocative and too free ... However, Vadim was recognized as the best director of the decade, and the star Brigitte Bardot shone. They talked about her everywhere - in newspapers, magazines, in transport, on the street. It was kind of crazy. It was impossible for her to appear in public, the crowd was instantly excited, and the excitement grew into madness. Once during the filming, the extras almost tore her to pieces. She possessed beauty, charm, dynamism.

The marriage of Vadim and Brigitte broke up, but they continued to work together, and good relations between them remained forever. After the death of Vadim, Brigitte Bardot remembered him as an intelligent, generous and kind person who treated everyone like that. It was easy for the actors to work with him - he never shouted, gave the opportunity to cool down from the experienced emotions.

She lived with Tretignan for several months, he was drafted into the army, and Brigitte could not be alone.And although she wrote gentle letters to Jean-Louis, at the same time in her gentle arms was chansonnier Gilbert Becot. When Tretignan returned and all relations were known, she broke up with both. Brigitte Bardot bought herself a Villa Madrag and settled there with three dogs. She enjoyed living alone. Critics of the world cinema thought that she would become an actress of one film, but it turned out that many famous directors wanted to see her in their films, and the actors considered it an honor to act with her.

And so, Brigitte Bardot began to take off her star. After the films "Parisienne", "In case of misfortune", "Babette goes to war," a wave of universal love and madness literally swept over her. After the last film, girls all over the world did an unimaginable fleece on their heads, imitating the lush and luxurious hair of Babette, and the hairstyle became known as Babette. She became the most desirable woman for men of that time. Wherever Brigitte appeared, men were ready to "jump out of their pants", and women in a rage rushed to tear her to pieces. But this was not the end of Babette.

During the filming of this film, she, who by that time had many romances, fell in love with the actor Jacques Charrier, a partner in the film. And after a while she discovered that she was pregnant. After her first abortion, when she met with Vadim, Brigitte was afraid of getting pregnant again. And so it happened. To have an abortion, Brigitte visited many doctors, but everyone was afraid to take the risk - after all, this is Brigitte Bardot herself. I had to marry Sharya.

The wedding day was kept secret, but despite this, when the young couple drove up to the city hall, up to two hundred reporters were waiting for them. The next day, the whole world saw the wedding of Brigitte Bardot, what dress she was wearing, what shoes. Instantly, brides all over France began to repeat the style of the dress. After that, for a long time, the color and print of Brigitte's wedding dress - a pink Vichy cage - was popular all over the world. Many people said that Brigitte Bardot was an unusually beautiful and attractive woman, with a magnificent figure and regal bearing. But she also became an outstanding actress of the time, she starred in films where her roles were full of deep drama and coped with this with great success. Her life sometimes became unbearable. It was difficult for her to go out unnoticed, her house was guarded by dozens of reporters and paparazzi.

There was a case that almost ended in tragedy. In the last months of pregnancy, she decided, wearing huge black glasses, to leave the house through the back door. But she was noticed, she rushed to run, she was driven like a wild animal on a hunt. After running a little, she stumbled and fell, unfortunately into the trash can. The next day there were photographs of this incident. Brigitte was in despair and tried to commit suicide, followed by Sharya. Fortunately, both were saved.

The question was, how to give birth? These ubiquitous reporters and paparazzi, they just won't let an ambulance take Brigitte. Relatives helped. Her son Nicolas was born on January 11, 1960 in a neighboring apartment, which was converted into a maternity ward. There is a photograph of the beautiful Brigitte with her little son, taken by a friend of Sharya. On it, a young mother and a baby son seem to have just woken up, Brigitte has her luxurious hair carelessly tied up on her head. After the publication of this photo, many girls in France, and then in the world, began to wear just such a hairstyle, which is still in vogue.

Young Brigitte Bardot fell in love, but she loved, giving everything: “You cannot give not all love, ... You always give everything or nothing. And every time I got to the very end. " So when Brigitte again fell in love with her partner, Samy Frey, she almost gave her life. When he was drafted into the army, she opened her veins, she was barely saved. In life, free, independent, who saw only the meaning of life in love, she always felt the need for affection and care, tried to find a shoulder to lean on. Brigitte never cunning, therefore, after stormy scenes, they divorced Sharye.

She couldn't be alone.Trying to find love, she constantly changed lovers. But this made her life even more difficult, already filled with the constant harassment of men and crowds of reporters.

Brigitte was tired. She decided to go with her new lover to Latin America (and he was from there). But even there she got into the tight circle of the crowd. The same thing happened in New York. “I have no personal life at all. I am like a hunted animal ... ".

After an unsuccessful trip, she returned to France. And everything started in the same whirlpool. Films with her participation brought a lot of money to the French budget. She was admired by the whole planet. To which she said: "Do you really think that when you lie in bed alone at night ... the thought that half of the world loves you can comfort you?" But Brigitte rarely managed to be alone. She's tired. Tired of the many fans and lovers who exploited her body, of the press, of attention and importunity, of ...

Brigitte Bardot met Gunther Sachs, who was unimaginably rich. He was richer than Brigitte herself. Gunther Sachs courted with all passion, gave gifts, drove around Europe. Once, from his helicopter, he scattered thousands of red roses over Brigitte's garden.

They were married on July 14, 1966 in Las Vegas. To prevent annoying paparazzi from catching up with them, they flew here by plane.

But apparently the time has not yet come when Brigitte decides to stop in the choice of lovers and husbands. They lived for three years. Everything was amazing. But she wanted to live in Paris, and he in Bavaria. She starred in films, he traveled around the world. He tried to take care of her, love and support her (isn't that what she dreamed of - finding a shoulder to lean on). However, none of this worked. How many people did she have who gave their love ??? What kind of love was she looking for ???

Brigitte Bardot decided to record an album of songs, in which the famous singer Serge Gainsbourg began to help her. He was short in stature and so ugly that he was called Quasimodo. He was fascinated by her and so sincerely that she fell in love with him. It turns out that neither love, nor gifts, nor care could keep Brigitte near Gunther? Serge wrote songs for her, he truly loved her. "It was a crazy love, the love of which they dream .... No man could count on me anymore ...". But when she left for the set again, she never returned to Serge. After a while, he filed for divorce.

Brigitte Bardot in 1970 was honored to be the symbol of France - Marianne. Since then, the most beautiful and famous women in France have been honored with this honor. Marianne was Catherine Deneuve, Sophie Marceau, Laetitia Casta.

Tired of filming and fame, and it may well be, Brigitte Bardot began dating such men that no one knew about, who were completely unworthy of her and even unworthy to remember them. How did this happen? Where is the fatal mistake that led Brigitte into such a routine? Perhaps we all think of love only as a passion that should burn in our hearts, like fire and always. But in fact - passion is only in nascent love, and then it, if there is this love, is replaced by caring for each other, sometimes just by a quiet and affectionate smile. When Brigitte later recalled Vadim Roger, she said that “... only then I gradually realized how generous and kind he was. Soft and elegant. Clever and seducer…. ”.

... Once on the set of the film "The Story of Colino", she saw a goat on the set. A charming, playful animal happily ran and jumped on the set, not knowing that after filming she would be allowed to go to the roast. Brigitte felt infinite pity for her. She bought this goat and took her to her hotel room. At night, she suddenly realized that her work is entirely worthless antics, worthy of ridicule. "... But I have only one life ...".

The next day, she was reborn and said that this film was the last for her. She was 39 years old. Nobody believed it, of course.Brigitte said that she gave her youth and beauty to men, and decided to devote the rest of her life to animals - our smaller brothers. Indeed, she no longer appeared, even when she was offered a million dollars, and even as a partner of Marlon Brando himself, she refused.

Brigitte Bardot is now fighting with humanity for our smaller brothers. She made sure that in French slaughterhouses, animals are killed without causing pain, and baby fur seals are not shot. She founded the Brigitte Bardot Foundation for the Protection of Animals, donated 3 million francs from the sale of her jewelry.

She demanded from the Queen of Denmark to stop killing dolphins, from the President of China - to stop mockery of bears, whose bile is used in medicine, and many other demands that Brigitte Bardot makes to the governments of different countries, up to a political scandal.

Brigitte Bardot is a vegetarian and promotes a vegetarian lifestyle. She has never had plastic surgery and is not shy about her wrinkles.

She is true to her convictions. Brigitte Bardot writes books, for the statements in which she was repeatedly summoned to court. But it cannot be stopped.

She was last married in 1992 to a businessman and politician, Bernard d? Ormal.

“The past does not exist for me. I live for one day .... Cinema means nothing to me. I do not remember him. The only one who exists for me is the person I am now married to. " One can only be glad that Brigitte Bardot was able to survive in such a whirlpool of events and not break. After all, everything is transitory - youth, beauty, and glory, but inner freedom and strength of personality remain forever.
