Kristina Pimenova

Life and career Pimenova's parents are former footballer Ruslan Pimenov and former model Glikeriya Shirokova. Pimenova has an elder sister, Natalia. Kristina Pimenova spent the first few months of her life in France where her father played football for FC Metz. Pimenova started working as a child model before her fourth birthday, after her mother sent photographs to the agency President Kids. Pimenova has worked for brands including Armani, Benetton, Burberry, and Roberto Cavalli.

In 2014, Women Daily magazine called her "the most beautiful girl in the world".

Later in 2015, Pimenova moved to California, USA with her mother. A documentary about Pimenova aired on RTL Television in October 2016.

Acting Pimenova played a post-production part as a singing child in the Italian fantasy film Creators: The Past. In an interview for Posh Kids Magazine, she expressed her wish to become a professional actress and film director. 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.

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. Her 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".
