The code? Which one? The one that social networks show us? The one who has many colors on the surface, but is dark and gloomy inside? The one that many people try to sell to us as something very expensive and sacred, but few actually have it, or the other one that often has the popular expression 'do as I say and don't do as I do'? What code are we talking about? For the one who cuts and dresses according to the body measurements of a large number of politicians - those who have a chair and a seat in the great legislative hall, but forget that the 'suit' does not fit everyone...

At least she would never choose to wear the kind of suit most people wear. This, not because she wants to be noticed, to be in the center of news portals, but because she is used to living her life with feelings; to be guided by the inner that comes naturally and not by the codes, protocol, written and unwritten rules that many shout loudly, but only a few understand and respect.

The set is quite different from the Assembly hall, where most politicians stand still to respect 'codes' of all kinds, no matter how successful they are. But Adriana Matoshi has also tried the 'square' of the Assembly, with a completely different goal from the majority of those who want the position - to be a voice for independent women. An incredible support force like her, anyone who is close to her knows very well that she always manages to be your side in the delicate moments of life. Because life for her has been a challenge, a movie with many series (although she is used to this by her profession), but whatever happened to her, she did not lower her head, on the contrary.

For a long time, he returned to the center of the media for an unusual marriage, about which Adriana has spoken several times publicly. Less for the hard work as an actress and later also as a member of parliament, for Adriana the headlines continued even after the divorce, but this stage also came and went quite naturally in her life, as in the life of anyone else who goes through the same stage in a moment of life. This time the headlines didn't stop either... Until, she decided to share the appearance of the second stage of the tumor, 9 years after the first time, with all her followers. He also did this with a purpose; to give strength to any other woman could be suffering for any number of reasons. Selfless, even though she was afraid of what was happening to her, Adriana did not forget to smile, even when her best friends thought for a moment that this was what was written for her. No. If God had decided to test him one more time, let him do it. She would make it. Again... He would even go into surgery laughing....

As a book character, Adriana Matoshi would be the ideal woman any writer seeks to draw. Her life is full of events, not at all ordinary and not at all random: all one after the other. She thinks of them as challenges that had a purpose at a certain stage of life. About a good portion of them, the famous actress talks in this exclusive confession for Class magazine. Without gloves, but with the passion that never faded, with all the ups and downs, fighting in many ways to be himself in every post and in every chair he sits on. Evil mouths, let them talk and comment on the colors of her pants (they blind their vision), she has no intention of stopping at any moment from the journey that she started years ago. Not only because he knows how to do it quite well, but because he doesn't compromise to be what he 'should be'.

After many difficult challenges, you manage to hold your head high and very proud, where do you find the strength to face everything that life has brought you?

I always leave the past behind, I have no way of knowing the future, the challenges in my life have made me very strong and filled my mind that I must live the present in all periods. Strong people are tested and are motivation for weaker people.

 

Have there been moments when you thought of giving up on everything?

On the contrary, I mustered all the strength to go forward and said that this was written for me, and these are life processes to be overcome, both the good and the bad, the joy, the hurt, the suffering. , grief, etc. They are phases of life and we must accept them as they are, so we know ourselves and our emotions better. There always comes a day when you laugh at something you cried about before.

 

How was the second time facing the tumor? What did you think when you found out?

In fact, my friend Genta has experienced it more. I laughed and told him: "We got a road with a little rest". I took it very calmly and said God knows his own affairs and what is written to happen, will happen. I wanted to have with me the people who make me laugh and all the check-up days have gone with laughter with my friends. My friends joked with me that this time I should concentrate to death, but I laughed with tears.

I am very grateful to God for the strength he gave me, but also very grateful to Dr. Petrela and his staff for giving me a second life, and to my friends as well; Genta, Tima and Arbri, and all my very large company who have kept my mood in heaven with messages and visits.

What would you say to people who are struggling with a serious illness? Do you have a message for them?

Never think the worst, because we don't know, God works miracles. There have been cases, that I know personally, when doctors have told them that there is no escape, and those people live very healthy and happy lives. So don't give up, try to love that moment and get over it. Never say 'Oh God, why did this disease happen to me', because God tests the people He loves the most.

 

Who's the first person you call when you're feeling down? And when do you have any happy news?

Usually, when I feel bad, I really enjoy being alone, I have a wrecked car and that's where I find myself. I don't even listen to painful music, I dig myself deeper. When I calm down, I call Genta, my best friend, she is also my medicine, she scolds me, comforts me, talks to me and finally hugs me. I feel his warmth and protection very much.

Even when I have happy news, the first people I want to make happy are my parents, children, society.

 

Do you manage to be present in the children's lives with all the commitments you have?

I, for a very long period, have not been able to be present 24/7 with my children, after parting with my ex-husband I had to work intensively, I did not fight for fame, but to keep the children, for to fulfill their wishes, but also the work that I knew how to do quite well was acting.

For a short period I have acted in many films, a series that took too much time and a coffee bar that I managed. Life is too expensive to rent and the demands of life are getting bigger as time goes on. But here, without the help of my parents, I had no chance to play movies, series or work, because the children were in their care 24/7.

The moment when you felt more proud of yourself than ever?

I feel proud of myself every day, everything I do I do with great honor and dedication. I never do anything to say "look what I did."

I work non-stop, I don't step on anyone to achieve my goals, I am very supportive of others, I enjoy every success of my colleagues, I hang out with rich people, even with those who don't have the conditions, I am open and I don't things behind my back, I am very accomplished in my career, but very simple as a person. I have crazy ideas and I want to go all the way to make them happen, I give people a lot of love, I visit family, I ask people out when I know they are bad, I send messages just to make people to smile and enjoy life.

How can I not be proud of the gentle soul that God has given me?

You were criticized for your dress in Parliament. What is your response to those who always find something to comment negatively on?

Not only in Parliament, but for as long as I can remember, I have been criticized for my clothing, what am I doing when I feel good only in my own style? I have always had a distinct style and always will. I haven't broken any code, I don't dress provocatively, maybe those who make negative comments should criticize me if I don't work, not what I wear.

But my style is my style. I don't intend to change it just as I don't intend to deal with what people talk about. There are some people who know so much and don't bother about life, all they have to do is deal with the other.

There are also some people who are struggling because of my successes, they have gone through life without doing anything, just gossiping, and my success hinders them, they talk, but they are also hindered by my hair, my shirt, my skirt, the color of the pants.

Imagine, how low you must be without seeing the successes. (Actually they see them, but what about the poison in their souls?)

We have seen that you have a close friendship with Arjola Demir. What was the first thing you said to him when you met him after leaving Big Brother?

Arjola is the soul of my soul. In today's times, finding a loyal friend is extremely difficult, Arjola is the most loving and loyal person, she is true to her word and the lady faced the challenges that life brings.

The day I went in to see him on Big Brother, only me and God knows how bad I was, very dizzy, but I didn't know I had a tumor.

I came in to tell him that all the way from Kosovo I tried not to forget what I had to say. I didn't say those words to him inside, because I forgot them, I had a problem with my memory, and I know that I'm behind and I wasn't articulate well. I did 'Uh uh' because my thoughts were running away.

The moment she came out of the hospital, the first news she learned was about my operation. Immediately we talked on the phone and we both cried because we were lucky enough to see each other's eyes again. I wished every man had a friend like Arjola. I can even give my soul for Arjola.

 

What about a piece of advice you wanted to give him while he was in, but didn't have the chance?

If I had had the opportunity while he was inside, I told him not to worry about anything, enjoy Big Brother Albania as the best experience in life.

What would you leave your career and politics behind for?

For a house in the mountains, near a lake, for nature, for a calmness.

 

Have you thought of leaving her lately, does she always follow your principles?

I don't know how to do politics. I know how to help people, listen to their complaints and requests. Then, I insist on those things, but it's not like I haven't done anything. I am very focused on domestic violence, on sick children, on the artistic community, but don't be surprised that I am new to this circle. Initially, I had to teach him some terms that I didn't know and slowly I did good work.

At the moment, I haven't thought of leaving it, I don't know the future, that's for the people to decide.

 

What are your next projects? Can you tell us something?

A film in Macedonia, one in Albania, several other projects that, for the moment, I want to leave behind as a mystery. Soon, I will tell you more…

Sharon Stone, 'Basic Instinct'? For a moment, the pose of the famous actress immediately seems embodied in the Albanian actress Adriana Matoshi, but more than the first, Adriana has a whole story through her photos, this photo set and many others that, most likely, expect in the future.

And until then, she will continue to do other beautiful work, as an artist and as a member of parliament. But not because she promised the public and her constituents. But because she chose to be Adriana... This is what she knows how to do best.
