Grecia Colmenares

Grecia Dolores Colmenares Mussens - this is the full name of the artist, whom fans call a blond angel. The peak of popularity of the Venezuelan-Argentine actress falls on the 1980s and 90s.

Grecia Colmenares was born at the end of 1962 in Valencia. For Venezuela, she has a rather unusual appearance, the reason for which is the origin of her mother: Grecia Mussens is French. In order not to confuse the same names of mother and daughter, the household called Grecia Jr. Lola. Grecia-Lola's dad was Argentine.

The family idyll ended with the divorce of the parents. At that time, the 5th child appeared in the family. Grecia is 5 years old. The mission fell on the shoulders of the mother to put all the children on their feet alone. The woman coped with this task, but at the same time kept the children in strictness. For example, she forbade the impressionable Grecia to watch serials. And, it seems, she knew what she was doing.

Later, the actress admitted that she was so "accustomed" to the role of film characters that for some time she fell out of reality. The reason was that the girl was born an artist. Her family noticed this immediately when the baby learned to speak. She copied relatives and put on impromptu performances at any free moment.

When Grecia Colmenares went to school, her mother gave up under her pressure: she allowed an 8-year-old girl to play the Virgin Mary in a school play.

Once again, the strict mother had to give in when "Lola" was 11 years old. The daughter begged her mother to let her go to the casting of the series "Angelica". Of course, Grecia Colmenares was the best at this competition. She was approved for the role. But it was not necessary to shoot in Valencia, but in Caracas, which was located 200 kilometers from his hometown.

The mother had nowhere to retreat, and she let her daughter go. The woman knew that her "Lola" would be in good hands, because her own aunt Grecia lived in Caracas, no less, and maybe more strict than her mother.

Grecia Colmenares felt like a recruit in the army. Her whole day was scheduled by the hour. Before lunch she attended school, where, as promised, she successfully studied. And in the afternoon the girl was filming. In addition, every day, seven days a week, she attended the theater workshop. And Grecia Colmenares had such a regime for 5 years.

After the end of filming in "Angelica", Grecia Colmenares' cinematic biography continued successfully. The young actress signed a lucrative contract. Her earnings were commensurate with those earned by adult actors, even though she was only 15 years old. Mom at that time got married for the second time and, after consulting with her husband, gave her daughter complete financial independence, allowing her to manage the money she earned at her discretion.

Grecia Colmenares starred in serials continuously. But the most striking was her work in the sensational melodrama "Topaz". It was a remake of the Esmeralda telenovela of the early 1970s. The tape was broadcasted with great success not only in Venezuela, but also in other countries of Latin America. Later, the broadcasting rights were bought by Italy and several other countries.

In the 1980s, the actress accepts an offer to act in Argentina, her father's homeland. Despite persuasion to stay, Grecia Colmenares moved and subsequently never regretted her choice. Argentina received the artist warmly. The film "Crystal", in which she starred, went with incredible success.

In Buenos Aires, Colmenares is offered project after project. A new melodrama with her participation "Draw Maria" is released, which receives a high rating not only in Argentina, but also in other countries that have acquired the rights to broadcast it.

In the spring of 1987, Argentine director Raul Lecouna invited Colmenares to play the main character of the series, which was named the actress - "Grecia". Unfortunately, the series was well received in Argentina, but it was a huge success in other countries. Especially in Israel, Turkey and several European countries.

But the melodrama "Passion", released on screens in 1988, corrected the situation. The role of a simple peasant girl falling in love with her rich master resonated in the hearts of Argentine audiences. Later followed by the rating films "Gypsy", "Prisoner without a Face", "Reason to Live" and others.

But the loudest fame "covered" the actress after the broadcast of the series "Manuela" in 1991. Grecia Colmenares woke up famous on a worldwide scale. She was adored by housewives and did not allow the paparazzi to pass.

But it seems that after "Manuela" the peak of the star's popularity passed. Subsequent projects "First Love", "A Girl named Destiny", "Loyalty to Love" and "Loan Life" were somewhat less successful.

In Argentina, the young actress met her first husband, Enri Zach. It was a hasty wedding of two young lovers: Grecia turned only 16, and her husband turned out to be a year older than her. Rumor has it that Colmenares was pushed to this early marriage by the desire to quickly slip out of the dictates of his too strict aunt.

Grecia, as if anticipating the fragility of married life, did not agree with her mother's wish to marry Enri in church. The couple lived together for no more than a year and broke up.

Colmenares' second marriage with the impresario Santiago Pumarola turned out to be just as fleeting and short-term. The couple's relationship deteriorated immediately after the wedding. The romance vanished, only contradictions remained. Divorce soon followed. Grecia, after her second unsuccessful marriage, even doubted that happiness was ever possible for her. She focused on her work.

But Grecia Colmenares's personal life settled down for a while. In Argentina, a young and successful actress met, as she believed, "the man of her life" - Marcelo Pellegri. Their acquaintance took place in the house of mutual friends. When Marcelo asked the owner of the house who this charming girl was, he joked that this was a visiting servant.

Pellegri, who never watched the series, believed it. He invited the beauty out on a date. And so that she would not feel offended, he made an appointment at an ordinary pizzeria, and not in a luxurious restaurant.

When the man asked Colmenares until what hour the owner let her go, the girl laughed for a long time. The couple never parted. They got married and soon had a son, Gianfranco. It is said that a stronger alliance than that of Colmenares and Pellegri is difficult to find. This harmonious couple understands each other perfectly.

In gratitude for his son, Marcelo gave his beloved wife a yacht on which the family spends all their free time. Unfortunately, the actress doesn't have that much. Grecia's last marriage lasted almost a decade, but in 2005 a divorce took place.

The peak of the actress's popularity is over, although she has not been forgotten. Today Grecia Colmenares is not filming, having made a long pause in work. She enjoys the comforts of home in her home in America.

But there are rumors that Grecia Colmenares will soon appear on the screens again. Allegedly, she surrendered under the pressure of the directors and accepted an offer to star in one of them.

At the moment, the last film in which she appeared is the melodrama "Loan Life", which was released in 2000.

1973 - "Angelica" 1984 - "Topaz" 1985 - "Draw Maria" 1987 - "Grecia" 1988 - "Passion" 1991 - "Manuela" 1992 - "First Love" 1994 - "A Girl named Destiny" 1996 - "Loyalty to Love "2000 -" Life on loan "
