Meryem Uzerli: biography of Turkey's most popular actress

The popular actress Meriem Uzerli, whose biography interests many fans of Turkish TV series, revealed herself to the world on August 12, 1983 in Kassel, a small German town. Her father is Hussein Uzerli, a native of Turkey, and his mother is Ursula Uzerli, a talented but not successful actor in a movie. The performer of the main role in the television series "The Magnificent Age" has a sister, Janan and two stepbrother Christopher and Denny.

The family of the talented actress is not very friendly, the father and mother were divorced long ago, and the Meriem brothers have long been living in different parts of Europe and almost do not maintain a relationship. The actress managed to maintain family ties only with Janan, who is a well-known jazz performer in Germany.

It was not about the career of an actress who dreamed of Meryem Uzerli. Biography of the girl testifies that she did not have a bright acting talent as a child, although she played modest roles in a small theater owned by her father's friend. Meryem applied to the acting profession as a child's play.

After graduating from school, Meryem was forced to choose a university, and she did it in a very original way: she closed her eyes and at random jabbed a finger at the first one. So she was in the acting school in Hamburg, but even for admission she had to undergo serious training.

Actress Meriem Uzery, whose biography is known to most lovers of Turkish television series, came to Hamburg and was forced to seek shelter, as her brother refused to accept the girl. After three years of training, she was unable to achieve any significant success in the acting career and therefore decided to move to Berlin.

In the capital of Germany Meriem smiled luck, and for two years she managed to act in six films at once. Despite the fact that the roles in these films were small enough, they helped Uzerli understand that she really can find herself in the profession. "Irrevocable flight", "Line", "Mad weekend" - all these films were quite popular in Germany. However, in 2008, luck ended, and proposals for the actress stopped coming.

The depression occupied all the free place in the life of Meryem Uzerli. Biography of the actress captures the next upsurge of her career in 2010, when a friend advised her to participate in the samples for the role in the next Turkish series. It turned out to be the "Magnificent Age", the creators of which were looking for the performer of the main role - Khaseki Hürrem Sultan.

Meryem, being in deep despair, decides to try his hand at casting, especially without relying on anything. Prior to the filming in the "Magnificent Age", the actress absolutely did not know the Turkish language, the history of Turkey and any important historical figures of this country.

Filming was given to the actress hard enough, because she had to work with an unfamiliar language, to teach a large amount of text, plus all the frenzied popularity. Meryem Uzery, whose personal life, biography and filmography were under the scrutiny of the Turkish media, gained 10 kilograms to be played by Hurrem Sultan, later she had a hard time when she wanted to get rid of excess weight.

Throughout the "Magnificent Century" the Turks of the soul do not worship in Meryem Uzerli. The biography of the actress is available to all comers. At the end of the third season, Meriem, referring to the emotional burnout syndrome , flew to Berlin and did not return to Istanbul any more. Did not persuade the producers and even promises to raise wages.

In August 2013, Turkish media reported that Meriem will return to the site of the popular Turkish saga, but they turned out to be rumors. Now the actress, whose name is known to the whole planet, is expecting a child, and in 2014 is going to return to TV screens. Meanwhile, many fans of the Turkish saga could not accept Vakhide Perchin as a Hurrem and refused to watch the show without Meriem Uzerli.
