Star actresses of the series "Mad Men"

The series "Mad Men" made the whole world sigh on the days when whiskey was pouring the river in all offices, smokers were smoking even on the plane, and the girls wore dresses of beating eyes. And at the same time made the stars of little-known Januarie Jones, Christina Hendrix, Elizabeth Moss and Jessica Pare. Their heroines for six seasons in a row prove: behind every successful man is a smart woman.
Christina Hendricks
Sex-bomb "Madmen", red miss extract Christina Hendrix, in real life a natural blonde who prefers provocative dresses with jeans and shirts, a diet salad - a sandwich with a good piece of ham, and boss Roger Sterling - her husband Jeffrey Rent, an intellectual with the appearance of a librarian. Even her voice sounds softer than on the screen. "People, when they meet me, say:" Oh my God! It turns out that you are much younger and not that vulgar. "

The role of Joan Holloway in "Mad Men" was the first real victory for Hendrix. Before that, she tried herself in the modeling business, quietly starred in the "First Aid" ... But when the 1960s were marked by her exhilarating silhouette, Google filled the queries about Joan. "I really have the feeling that everyone is just doing that they are discussing my chest," laughs Hendricks, listening to the gratitude of the fans for making lush forms the subject of the cult. In the childhood that Christina spent in Tennessee, and even at the school where Hendricks was a "goth girl with purple hair and black lipstick," she did not realize that she was destined to play the great role of the destroyer of templates. "I would like to lose 5 kilograms of weight, of course, yes, I'm a woman, I can not say that I finally overcame the passion for losing weight, but in general I manage it."

The screen character of Cristina - Joan also copes well: she managed to break with Lovelace Stepling, to marry the doctor and send him to Vietnam, get pregnant from Roger, die boredom in a decree, and then divorce and return to work where she was traded for a contract with automotive company. And again she took courtship - whatever happened in her life, Joan's outfits remain as tight and the decollete as deep as her philosophy.

January jones
Where the figure of Betty Draper changed - and after all, Janary Jones, who performs this role, was cold, like her student's January name, used to keep everything under control. Even the 11-year-old actor Jared Gilmour, who played her son Bobby in two seasons of Madmen, warned: "Be careful with Jones, she's not that friendly ..." The creators of the series could make sure, too, when the actress stated that she did not I received a lot for my role in the advertising advertiser saga. Perhaps in South Dakota, where it comes from, the ambitions of people are as wide as local valleys. Like many girls with white hair and cherry lips, Januery began her career as a model. Like many models, she met Ashton Kutcher - he brought her to the cinema. According to the memories of Jones, the boyfriend did not hide doubts about her future on the screen. The actress, nominated for Golden Globe for the role of Betty Draper, admits who is grateful to him for those doubts: "Let them say that something is too tough for me - it whips me the best."

After Kutcher - he did not light her fire - Januery met with singer Josh Groban, and then changed it to a lawyer from Oregon. But the last link in this chain, it seems, has not been found - his two-year-old son Jones is brought up alone. "Who really suits me is James Brolin of The Amityville Horror." A guy with a beard waving an ax. "

Her heroine, too, could not stand the measured life of a housewife. "It's boring only for boring people," Betty says and introduces the spectators into a stupor: she has sex with the first counterman in revenge to change her husband, gives birth to a third child and departs from a successful advertiser Draper to no less successful politician Francis, gets fat to the size of his new mother-in-law, again comes in shape and changes the hair color.

Elizabeth Moss
Look at Elizabeth outside the set: on the red carpet or in the next interview. Dress in the floor and a hooligan's smile convince: this girl makes the world revolve around her no worse than her brutal serial boss Donald Draper.

However, the image of a maniacally hardworking secretary, rammed his way into copywriters, lay down on the prepared ground. The actress defends her femininity with the same zeal with which Peggy fights for the right to be on an equal footing with his ever-drinking colleagues. "I always scream, demanding to allow me more make-up," Moss admits, "For the love of humanity, give me some lipstick!"

Once the little Elizabeth lived the life of a nerd girl in a family of musicians from Los Angeles and played in the library: she laid out books on the stairs, and her parents had to check this catalog. Perhaps such orderly home games would continue even further, but the revision of literary values ​​was interrupted by Hollywood. At six, Moss appeared in the miniseries "Happy Cases," and at sixteen she was standing next to Angelina Jolie on the set of the movie "Interrupted Life." It is likely that then her dad, a jazz musician, and her mother, professionally playing the harmonica, performed a funeral song to the musical career of her daughter, who graduated from high school externally and was ready, like Peggy, to fight to the finish.However, on the armchair in Moss apartment and today one can find a Hawaiian guitar.

Jessica Pare
Get to know the creator of the series Matt Weiner about this before, the hit of the birthday party of Donald Draper could not be the playful number of Jessica Pare Zoe Bisou Bisou, and the cheerful duet Megan and Peggy on the ukulele. It turned out that the secretary of the creative director of Sterling Cooper, Megan, who jumped a few career steps directly to the position of the new Mrs. Draper, in normal life, too, no, no, and will hit the strings. Although before the shooting in "Mad Men" she sang only among relatives. "If the drinks were strong enough," - says Pare.

Jessica watched all the series about advertisers from Manhattan, carefully monitoring the vicissitudes in the fate of the beloved heroine - Betty. And in the fourth season, she replaced the deceased in the workplace, Miss Blankenship, getting a seat first next to the office of the Don, and then with Draper himself.

Does Jess look like her heroine? On the screen she is the daughter of a scientist, in life - the head of the department of education at McGill University. Like Megan, Jessica speaks excellent French and, of course, also wants to play in the movies. Her smile - and asks for the poster "Sterling Cooper" - it only helped in this. Teeth Megan became a subject of discussion of bloggers after the first series with her. One of Jessica's girlfriends once said that large teeth prevent her from becoming an actress - this memory shared with Para with her character. "But personally, I never noticed that I have any special teeth, at least they are doing great food," Pare smiles broadly. Recently, the fans were alarmed when they saw Megan wearing a red star's shirt - exactly the same as the brutally murdered wife of Roman Polanski. Are the scriptwriters and the director planning to kill their favorite heroine? No, and in the sixth season she, like other women of Dreieppe, did not let anyone get bored. In an interview with Jessica, one of the journalists noted that if the heroes of the "Mad Men" lived among us, then with their emotionality, the suicide rate would go up for 90 percent. "Exactly more than 70," she said calmly.
