Kristina Ruslanovna Pimenova (Template:Lang-ru; born 27 December 2005)Cite error: A <ref> tag is missing the closing </ref> (see the help page). She started working as a child model before her fourth birthday, after her mother sent photographs to the agency President Kids.[2] Pimenova has worked for brands including Armani, Benetton, Burberry, and Roberto Cavalli.[2][3]
In 2014, Women Daily magazine called Pimenova "the most beautiful girl in the world".[3]
In Moscow, Pimenova practiced rhythmic gymnastics, under Olga Kapranova.[4] In 2013, she competed in a gymnastics tournament in Tatarstan organized by Alina Kabaeva, winning a gold medal in her age group.[5]
In April 2015, she appeared on the cover of Vogue Kids.[6]
Later in 2015, Pimenova moved to California with her mother. A documentary about Pimenova aired on RTL Television in October 2016.[7]
Acting
Pimenova played a post-production part as a singing child in the Italian fantasy film Creators: The Past.[8][9] In an interview for Posh Kids Magazine, she expressed her wish to become a professional actress and film director.[10] She was subsequently cast for the role of Dasha in Michael S. Ojeda's horror thriller The Russian Bride, co-starring with Corbin Bernsen and Oksana Orlan.[1]
Criticism
When Pimenova's mother managed her social media accounts, there was some criticism of the content as an example of sexualisation of an under-age model.[3][11] The mother disagreed, maintaining that all the photos were perfectly innocent and "you must think like a pedophile in order to see something sexual in these pictures".[12]
