The childhood of the future Verka Serduchka cannot be called happy.
Born in Poltava, into a family of very poor workers, he, to put it mildly, did not bathe in luxury. But the main problem was that his father drank heavily.
The boy dreamed of becoming a priest, and then a doctor, in order to encourage people to lead a righteous lifestyle and treat them from binge drinking.
Now Andrei sadly admits that an addiction to the green serpent is in his genes. But at school Andrei was a real star. Even then, he loved to stage performances with dressing up and created a distant image of Serduchka. After finishing school, Andrey put together his own touring team and went on concerts around Ukraine. He never returned to his hometown.
