On Top Of The Beauty Game: Meet The Hottest Women From Russia

The beauty phenomenon of Russian women is hard to explain but it cannot be denied. They are what some might call a complete package. They are smart, they are stylish, they are fit, and… they are insanely beautiful. Models, actresses, bloggers, athletes, politicians, Russia was blessed with the most gorgeous women the world has ever seen.

Some know her as a fashion model who got worldwide famous after appearing on the cover of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue in 2011. But most of us know her as a Russian beauty who dated Christiano Ronaldo and Bradley Cooper.

Anna Kournikova is my personal favorite. After retiring from playing professional tennis at the age of 21, she moved to Miami, Florida and established herself as a television personality. She appeared as a new trainer on the season 12 of the tv show The Biggest Loser. In addition to all of that, she does a lot of charity work.

If you watched the movie A Good Day To Die Hard, you might recognize Yuliya Snigir. She played Irina, the daughter of a Russian criminal who fought against John McClane. This movie was her golden ticket to Hollywood. Later, she moved to LA and appeared in two more hit movies, Delirium and Freezer.

I’ll get tired listing all the famous brand names Natasha Poly worked with. I’m talking Nina Ricci, Calvin Klein, Louis Vuitton, Roberto Cavalli, Prada and many many more. This Russain fashionista is also a mother to a lovely daughter and a wife to a successful Dutch business.

Olga Kurylenko is probably one of the few Russain actresses who made it to Hollywood and landed roles in many blockbuster hits. Did you know that Gal Gabot actually lost the role of Camille Montes to Olga in Quantum of Solace?

Lubov Aksenova started out with minor roles in several Russian sitcoms. But the real breakthrough happened when she starred in award winning movie Sharp Stories. This movie was a turning point in her acting career. She proved her talent and has become one of the most in-demand modern actresses.

Born into the acting family, Ravshana Kurkova followed the steps of her parents to become a professional actress. She studied acting at Mikhail Shchepkin Higher Theatre School (one of the most prestigious acting schools in Russia). Ravshana is now recognized as a distinguished movie and theater actress whose talent and exquisite beauty puts her on top of the game.

Unlike the beautiful ladies mentioned above, Anne Vyalitsyna started her modeling career at a very young age. When she was just 15 years old, she moved to New York to work with IMG Models. Since then, Anne has found herself on the covers of big magazines like Vogue, Elle and Glamour.
