Even those who were called nerds in childhood for years must have stories of school pranks in their memory. And the stars of such moments, of course, had more than one or two - many of them wanted to be in the spotlight since childhood. Before the start of the new school year, famous people, together with "Cleo", returned to their childhood and remembered their school antics. And so, the school life of the stars.

Vadim Galygin, showman:

- I had a bright pioneer childhood. I remember those times well and I even remember the first rule of October to this day. In the fifth grade, when I was the chairman of the squad council, during the gathering of the squad's assets, a friend proposed my candidacy for the "position" of the squad chairman. They consulted and unanimously approved me. And here I started to come off: my duties included accepting schoolchildren as pioneers. I remember well how girls came to me with such already marked busts, and they were all older than me. I had a couple of tricky questions for them.

I made a stone face and, looking at them point-blank, asked: "Tell me the names and patronymics of the members of the Politburo of the Central Committee of the CPSU." By the way, not everyone passed this test. Then my friends and I had fun over it.

Alexander Oleshko, actor:

- On the first of September in the first class I immediately got lost on the line. By tradition, at the first bell, high school students picked me up with a bell and carried me somewhere. And they took me to a completely wrong class. Then no one understood anything. And I thought, “Strange thing, this school. I like what they wear at school. But where are the lessons? I don't understand …”Looking at me, the teacher asked:

- Boy, who are you? And where?

- I'm Sasha. I came to school …

Then they took me about thirty minutes to different classes, until we stumbled upon my mother and grandmother, who were crying in the corridor. Then I made the first main conclusion for myself: I will never be lost in any life situation. The second conclusion I made in the first lesson in my life. It was a "lesson in peace." We were given primers. And on the first page was a picture of Red Square. It was then that I realized that I would live in Moscow.

Valeria, singer:

- I was the most exemplary student in the class: conscientiously learned lessons, a gold medal … People like me are called positive to nausea. But I've always loved to have fun. The most memorable school day was graduation. The class and I organized such a kind of skit. Gathered in the assembly hall and made a parody of teachers. Each graduate got the role of a teacher. We portrayed some of them very ambiguously, and I was worried that someone might not understand the humor. But everyone laughed. And after staging, we gave our teachers a dictation. Whoever could, and wrote.

The funny thing is that many wrote the dictation with mistakes. But that evening we gave everyone an A. And those teachers who did not make a single mistake received A's with a plus.

Anfisa Chekhova, TV presenter:

- I didn't really like school. And the teachers disliked me for my temper. I never obeyed, I did some pranks, in their opinion. I even once had a note in my diary "I broke the wall in the hallway." Although it was not at all like that. A plywood partition was installed in the hall of our school so that children would not run during recess. It was boring at first, but then we discovered that you can tap through the plywood. And the teacher thought that I was kicking on the partition. She felt that I was "breaking the wall." Then it got from the parents …

In general, everything was not calm at my school. Even high school prom, and it failed. I came in a beautiful dress, with hair, make-up, in general, I got dressed. And what do I see? One girl from a parallel class has the exact same dress as mine.

I had to urgently change into what I had. I put on some ridiculous pants, a hat, in general, the outfit was, to put it mildly, terrible. By the way, after that evening I never put on my pants again.

Igor Chapurin, designer:

Did you behave well at school?

	Yes! She was an exemplary girl.
	Sometimes she was naughty, I must admit.
	She was a notorious hooligan.

- I had such designer hooliganism at school. I've always been terribly against school uniforms. More precisely, not against the fact that you need to walk in uniform, but against that Soviet uniform. I always wanted to be nicely dressed, but this awful boring standard uniform … So I constantly altered it: I took it apart and folded it in my own way. At first, the teachers were against it, the parents were called in, but then they resigned themselves. I didn’t embroider her shape with gold and beads, I, on the contrary, ennobled everything. Then everyone got used to it and even expected that Chapurin would come up with a new one.
