The Serbian actress and singer turned 80 in March. Olivera lives as a tenant, although she has great success behind her in the whole region, but also in the world, and she gained her popularity with the famous film with a Roma theme "I Even Met Happy Gypsies" - Skupljaci perja (original title)
She said that she was forgotten by her colleagues and friends, but that she had preserved her dignity and that she would not beg anyone. A few years ago, she said publicly that she lives hard, but also that there was a period when she did not even have bread.
"There were times in my life when I didn't even have bread. There were many difficult moments. When I had nothing. Even now I have nothing special. I live in a rented apartment, which, you will agree, is strange that during my career I have not acquired an apartment or anything else. If I were in Hollywood, I would probably live in the most luxurious neighborhood. Americans value their artists, and here you can be I do not know what talent and have none of that. Sorry, please, but here various singers are very rich and live in some castles. They live on a high footing. Do you know how artists live? They live too hard. "Poets, painters and sculptors - how they live, they know, it's scary," said the former actress, who has numerous acting roles behind her, as well as albums and songs.
