In early November, three bandits in the masks of the evil clown Joker attacked the house near Moscow of 57-year-old businesswoman Victoria Chelysheva, whom the media called “the mother-in-law of the singer Alexei Vorobyov.” The musician met Victoria’s daughter Tatyana Chelysheva in the 4th season of the Bachelor show. They had a short romance. And then Tatyana said that she was raising her son from Vorobyov. True, Lesha did not recognize the child. Meanwhile, Express Gazeta decided to recall the loudest and most unusual star robberies.

Often celebrities are robbed by their own servants. Here are three notable cases.
God’s punishment
Elena Proklova has been building a cottage near Sochi for the fourth year and is torn between the southern resort and Moscow.
– A house in the mountains overlooking the sea, – says the actress. – I rarely go to the beach. There is a ringing silence in the mountains, which is broken only by the chirping of cicadas. And on the sea – screaming, angry adults who beat their children on the ass, saying: “Don’t throw stones at my aunt! How much can you say…”
The artist is in no hurry to hire housekeepers. After the incident in 2006, she treats them with distrust. Then a married couple from a neighboring republic, Nina and Vladimir Alekseenko, worked for Proklova. Elena Igorevna began to consider household assistants almost as relatives. They ate at the same table, chatted heart to heart … But when the actress left for the film festival in Khanty-Mansiysk, the servants unexpectedly robbed the hostess and ran away. However, their crime was recorded by surveillance cameras. The movie star estimated the loss at $20,000 (560,000 rubles at the then exchange rate).
“My husband’s parents stayed in the house,” Proklova recalls. – And the thieves did not hesitate to load my clothes, right down to my underwear, into the car and took the money from the bedside table. Parents did not even understand why they go up and down with some bags. I did not write a statement. They were punished by fate. God see everything. We were later informed that they had been in a terrible accident: he died, she was all broken.
Watch from Bastrykin
In 2019, Honored Artist Olga Tumaikina hired an assistant to work in her country house near Troitsk. Ukrainian Valentina really liked the actress, although she stole jewelry from her. True, whenever the hostess was interested in where her jewelry was, the next morning they returned to their place. A year later, Valentina abruptly started to go home, to Zaporozhye. And then Tumaikina discovered the loss of all her jewelry for a total of 780 thousand rubles.
– Some of the stolen items were given to me by my mother. Other valuables were bought in connection with the birth of children. Also disappeared was a wristwatch with a dedicatory inscription from the head of the TFR, Alexander Bastrykin.
The thief was quickly caught and punished.
“I handed over the watch for six thousand rubles, and the jewelry for forty,” Valentina admitted following the arrest. – I’m sorry.
toilet thief
For six months, the housekeeper daily robbed the red-haired “Ivanushka” Andrey Grigoriev-Appolonov. In 2012, a resident of the Moscow region, Valentina Taranenko, came to his Moscow apartment twice a week: she cleaned and cooked. And at the same time poked all sorts of knick-knacks, cleaning products, bedding and condoms. And only following the then wife of the singer Marina complained to the star husband regarding the disappearance of diamond earrings, he sounded the alarm.
– Sheep! Andrey was indignant. – I thought that I might be bred just like the others. – She also drove a Toyota Avensis, used Coco Chanel perfume. I installed video cameras throughout the house. And on the day of the visit of this lady, he invited the district police officer, in whose presence he put the marked bills in his trousers pocket – 9,200 rubles. The housekeeper found the money, counted it, and appropriated part of the amount.
When the police detained Valentina, in addition to money, they found the baby juices of the singer’s son and a pack of toilet paper in her bag.
