Lobkov Denis  He was born in the mid-70s in the glorious hero city of Moscow, of which he is proud to this day. In 1993, after graduating from a secondary school in the capital, he entered the Faculty of Journalism at Moscow University and at the same time got a job at Express Newspaper, which was then just showing the first signs of life, where he worked “from bell to bell”: first as a correspondent, then as head of the gossip department. By the will of fate (oh, this alluring show business!) I quit my job in order to surrender to it, the artistic world, entirely and completely. He collaborated with concert production companies, took part in the promotion and work of the Zaitsev sisters, Irina Salitykova, Masha Rasputina, Willy Tokarev and Vladislav Agafonov. However, many who knew Lobkov well assured that his experiences in show business were nothing more than another big journalistic investigation. After all, having become a “confidant” for many stars, he learned from the stars and revealed to readers the “wrong” side of Russian show business, everything negative and what is hidden from viewers and listeners.
The words of the editor-in-chief of Express Newspaper, Alexander Kupriyanov, spoken to Lobkov upon his dismissal from the editorial office, turned out to be prophetic: “With such enthusiasm, you will certainly become an editor.” Realizing at one fine moment that “man does not live by show business alone,” Lobkov created his own newspaper in the area in which he lives. As an editor, he published five issues of the Troparevo-Nikulino newspaper. But the craving for his beloved yellow press haunted him. Some mystical forces brought him to the newspaper “Sobesednik”, and then to the supplement - “Yellow Newspaper”, in which, slowly and confidently stepping up the career ladder, from a freelance correspondent, he reached the position of a responsible editor.

Prokopovich Natalya  The date of my birth is shrouded in mystery and darkness - I can’t say anything intelligible about this. The place of birth is known - now a foreign country - Lithuania, the city of Vilnius. Of course, I went to school. My favorite city is Vilnius. I lived there until I was 20-something years old, then, like Chekhov’s three sisters, I was drawn to Moscow. In order to somehow justify this urge, I entered the Gorky Literary Institute and began studying to become a translator from the Lithuanian language. I worked in many places - it’s hard to even remember everything. By the will of fate, I was brought into the “Interlocutor” - here they call me the deputy executive editor of the “Yellow Newspaper” (supplement to the “Sobes”).
I love a lot of things. I just love life - in almost all its manifestations: all seasons, and winter too (strange as it may seem), good books, painting.
