« J’aime bien papoter avec d’autres parents »

06.45 Réveil en fanfare ! Le matin, c’est la course à cause de l’école. Les enfants se lèvent tôt, ça rigole, ça se chamaille. Mon fils Victor, 5 ans, réveille ma fille, Neva, 7 ans, qui réveille mon aîné, Lucas Alexander, 11 ans… ou l’inverse ! Je prépare le petit déj avec eux. Chacun apporte son bol, ses couverts. Pour moi, c’est café, oeufs brouillés ou toasts avec du fromage ; pour eux, chocolat chaud et croissants. Tout le monde s’habille pendant que je prends ma douche. J’enfile une simple robe en coton signée Ulyana Sergeenko, ma créatrice russe préférée, avec ou sans collant selon la saison, et c’est parti.

08.45 Après avoir déposé les enfants à l’école, j’aime bien papoter avec d’autres parents. Je suis installée à Paris depuis septembre. Par amour, mais aussi pour le boulot. Dès que j’arrive à mon bureau, rue d’Anjou, j’ouvre ma boîte mail, qui clignote de partout. Je fais un point avec mon équipe, à Moscou et à Londres, qui gère ma petite entreprise, mon image, mes contrats, les shootings. Puis j’entame mon cours de français. Ensuite, je parcours la presse russe sur Internet, Kommersant.ru et Snob.ru. Je suis russe, je reste très attachée à mon pays. Mon équipe est russe, on parle russe entre nous. J’ai eu une enfance pauvre à Nijni Novgorod, j’ai été repérée par un « scout » alors que je vendais des légumes avec ma mère sur le marché. Je n’en ai pas honte, c’est ce qui m’a construite. Aujourd’hui, j’aide les enfants pauvres de Russie en levant des fonds pour ma fondation, Naked Heart. Sur mon compte Twitter @NataSupernova, comme dans la vie, je suis mère, mannequin et… philanthrope !

Translation (not very good sorry but I tried to recover the same meaning) of 'une journée avec Natalia Vodianova' from the ELLE France of the present week.

06.45 : waking up all of a sudden ! Children have to go to school and we must hurry up. They wake up early, laugh, quarrel. my son Viktor, 4, wakes up my daughter Neva, 7, who wakes up the eldest, Lucas Alexander,11, or it's the contrary. They help me preparing the breakfast. Everyone takes his/her own bowl, spoon. I usually tae a coffee, fried eggs and toasts with cheese, as for children, it's hot chocolate and croissants. They get dressed while I take a shower. I wear a simple dress for my favourite russian designer, Ulyana Sergeenko, with or without tights - depending on the season, and we're ready.

08.45 : after having brought children to school, I like having a chat with some other parents. I settled in Paris since september. Because of love, but also because of work. As soon as I arrive to my office, in Anjou street, I open my email box, which is full. I contact my working team, in Moscow or London - they take care of my foundation, my image, my contracts and my shootings. Then I start my french lessons. Later on, I read the russian press on the internet, kommersant.ru, snob.ru. I am russian, I remain very attached to my country. My team is russian, we speak russian between us. I had a poor childhood in Nizhni Novgorod, I was noticed by a scout while I was selling vegetables on a market with my mother. I'm not ashamed of it, it is what made me who I am. Today, I help poor children raising founds with my charity foundation, Naked Heart. On my twitter account @NataSupernova, like in real life, I am a mother, a model, and a philantropist !

1.00pm : I either have a lunch with friends, or I swallow a soup in front of my computer. But not any soup : the pumpkin one from Bread and Roses. If I can, I go to school to pick up the children. When I am abroad for a shooting, I bring them with me, or let them with their nannies. I just simply tell them things, even with a heavy heart : I'll be back in two dodos (don"t know how to translate this one, it means night, or sleep in french in a cute/childish way). And they understand.

5.00pm : If I can pick them up, when back home, we play to the legos, or to monopoly, and Neva draws. Several times a week, they have russian lessons, piano lessons, tennis, basket lessons, painting lessons. Their timetable is as full as mine.

8.00pm : After the evil trio "bath+diner+stories, I need something that can cheer me up. I read poems by David Jones, or I re-read the magnificient cartoon "persepolis" by Marjane Satrapi, while listening to music : the XX, the National, or the best one, Johnny Cash. What I love doing with my boyfriend, Antoine Arnault ? Going to art galleries, Seine street, or Lille street, eating french tapas by Joël Robuchon on the Champs Elysées, or take my children to spectacles, shows. I offer many things to my children, I want the best for them. Neva is only 7, but she already came with us to the Palais des Congres to see her first ballet. She fell asleep around midnight, the eyes full of stars. And so did I !

Small secrets. If everything gets foggy, If I feel a bit sad, I practice yoga. It helps me finding my balance, and perceive the good side of things. I am so lucky. In my office, there is a big portrait of me, it's a bit megalo and egocentric, but the painter who offered it to me is so talentuous...Thanks to the children, I know every single square in Paris, with or without carousel. My favourites ? The tuileries, the Champs-de-Mars, the garden of acclimatation...
