Actress Elena Podzámská (53), who in recent years has gone through a tough battle with alcohol and drugs, appeared on the JOJ TV show V siedem nebi, hosted by Vilo Rozboril. Her husband Jaroslav signed her up for the well-known format with a request to find her a job. For now, Elena revealed how she is doing.
The famous actress was open to any offer. “Well, in the current situation, yes. Of course, I would like to return to acting in general. I can’t choose now. I am at the employment office“, she said honestly and admitted that she received 286 euros from the employment office.
Rozboril contacted Prešov’s spokesman Pavlo Hagyari, who is the owner of a hotel in the city. When Vilo came to him with a request for a job offer for an actress, he hesitated at first. The next day, however, he announced to the moderator that he could offer her a job as a receptionist.
When Elena found out, she was thrilled. “I am so pleasantly surprised that people can help each other like this. For me, it’s a huge chance to get back on my feet. Although it is something completely new, I am extremely grateful for it. I’m a little scared, but I’m really looking forward to it and thank you“, she said.
But the reality was not so rosy. “I started going to the Carpe Diem Hotel and looking at the receptionist job. I got a mentor when she had a shift, so I was there. It’s very interesting, but incredibly beyond my skill set. But, of course, I am very grateful for that. It also enriched me in a way,” she declared. So Podzámska did not stay to work at the hotel.
At the end of the show V siedem nebi, however, the general director of the Košice National Theater Ondrej Šoth spoke to her, who offered her a guest role. She revealed to Novy Čas that after the acting offer, all ten of them took it up and went to rehearse for a play.
