Gerald Thomas was very surprised when proposing Reynaldo Dzhianekkini the role of Hamlet, suddenly received a refusal. According to the actor, not having a very solid role luggage, it just is not ready yet to ensure that "infringe" on Shakespeare. Eight months later, he is still played at the director of the play "Príncipe de Copacabana" ("The Prince and the Copacabana") - a free interpretation of "Hamlet." It was rather a play about his life - the life of Reinaldo Dzhianekkini. Hero - a handsome young man, who became a star. Him no rest day nor night, and he was suffering from a life on the mind.

A native of Sao Paulo, Reinaldo, like many actors who began his career with modeling business. (And it's no wonder with such appearance, the growth of 1, 86 and Athletic). Breaking into the acting world by storm, after his first telenovela "Family Ties" Reynaldo gained a wide popularity. First, it is quite difficult to get used to the sudden befallen him fame. Crowds of fans neostupno followed him, literally torn from the phone calls. And this despite the fact that Reinaldo three years happily married to journalist Marilia Gabriela, which led him into the world of cinema and theater. They met at a party, and between them broke out the passion that has lasted until now, despite the huge age difference (Reynaldo - 30 and 50 Marilia Gabriela).

One mother Reynaldo Eloise really scared for her son. It was in Rio, where her son was involved in a campaign that promotes vaccination against polio. When the machine Reynaldo drove to the scene there was already a crowd that would not let him pass. She seemed now simply detonate the car of their idol, but at the same time and will carry him. Among the fans was even an old woman of 98 years, who proudly told reporters that poster with the image of Reinaldo takes pride of place on the wall of her apartment.

Even while living away from Rio, parents felt Reynaldo popularity son. They were forced to change my phone number because fans ringing constantly - from 7 am to 11 pm. Endless questions about his life, work, money ... Many did not believe that talking not with the actor and his father.

The actor quickly became the most popular resident of his native city, he even proclaimed an honorary citizen. Although starting from the moment that was filmed the first series of "family ties", Reinaldo was almost home. "I have not seen her brother since Christmas," - said the sister of actor Robert. When the telenovela has reached the peak of its popularity, Reinaldo's mother Eloise was still shocked when I saw the subway posters with pictures of her son and his photos on a CD with the music for the series.

For all have to pay, and the popularity has its price too. However, sometimes it can be of benefit. Recently, for example, the actor bought a new home for 500 thousand. Reais, and he was given a three-month installments. He changed his car Fiat Strada on the new Audi. At the same time, the money, according to him, is not the main thing in life. Reynaldo recently refused a lucrative contract to advertise one of the supermarkets, thereby losing 200 thousand reais. "I do not care where to hang my image", - said the actor.

After filming "family ties" Dzhianekkini offered a contract at the studio Globo on 25 thousand reais per month, instead of the previous 10 thousand.

Reynaldo gradually gets used to his new life. "The quiet life is over, and now it looks like a hurricane," - he says. During this interview the window repeatedly cries asking fans to take a picture with the actor. Reinaldo smiled and went ... photographed.

I went through all the stages of the discontent to full satisfaction. I was constantly tormented by doubts, worried, but it comes with all the actors. Gerald constantly casts doubt - what to do, where to go ... There is some kind of struggle, and eventually you are emotionally exhausted. But I like to work with him. Sometimes people ask me if it bothers me that Gerald is just using my popularity. This is a very rough statement, and does not correspond to the truth. Nothing of the sort, I enjoy working with, and I worked.

You were hard at this job?

Oh, I just have nightmares, sometimes I felt very badly. I woke up in tears. It was for a long time now I have calmed down a bit. Marilia helped me a lot, and she kept giving me the strength to continue on.

How do you as the star Globo?

Difficult. I've never done anything like this. I suddenly became famous throughout Brazil, and it is sometimes very depressing, even frightening. My personal life suddenly became public. Fame brings a strange feeling, a feeling that you have lost control over their own lives. It is very strange to hear from strangers declarations of love Declarations of love - a cherished phrase , Requests for autographs. Do you sometimes want to be alone Loneliness - this is not new, or why am I still alone? Just take a stroll. But when you sit down on the bench, you immediately someone touches his shoulder. It's hard to be seen 24 hours a day. I'm new to this, I'm that.

What was the most difficult for you?

People are judging me, both professionally and personally. There were various rumors, stories about me. Somehow, every thought has the right to judge how to be another person in his profession, private, sexual lives. It was terrible. Sometimes I just do not want to leave the house.

What do you react to criticism in your address as an actor?

I am the chief critic of his. I know that I lack experience, and something where we could play a lot better. But sometimes criticism of me is not always constructive.

She says that I have to learn to live with my popularity. What are good and bad people. "You're going to awaken in people the love and hatred. You will love and hate the people you do not know and who do not really know you," - she said to me. But it seems that she lost control of her life. She had previously been known, loved her, but she never provoked such hysteria, which is now. From the moment we began to live together, it began a madhouse. Oh how Marilia accustomed to the popularity of this she could not even imagine.

You have a little accustomed to your popularity?

Now I have fewer problems. Communication with the media has changed me. I will not inflict such pain or that publication and criticism of me. I have learned to keep their distance. Otherwise, you can just go crazy. When I have something to read to myself, then I imagine that it is written about someone else, a stranger. I say to myself: "Look at this poor" or "In this photo, I could get." I do not feel like a star. I just try to give all of myself to what I'm doing.

Do you regret anything?

No. It was definitely a positive experience. Another thing - if I received such a proposal now, it would be better, because now I'm ready for this, both professionally and psychologically.
