t.A.T.u. (Т.А.Т.У)

Not Available Interstitial

A manufactured pop duo consisting of Yulia Volkova (the brunette) and Lena Katina (the redhead), t.a.T.u. (a.k.a. "Tattoo") are perhaps the most exploitative act in the history of the music industry (and that's saying something). Proof? They started off as underage lesbians until they weren't (underage or lesbian, that is); that was their low point until Yulia posed topless while 8 months pregnant. Unchecked capitalism is a hell of a drug.

Anfisa Chekhova (Анфиса Чехова)

Not Available Interstitial

Growing up, Anfisa had dreams of becoming a serious actress. After these were quashed (probably by some toothless old Soviet hag apparatchik), she made borscht out of beets and is now the host of the very popular advice show Sex with Anfisa Chekhova. Side note: Can we tell you how confusing it is to research a beautiful woman from a country whose language you don't speak when she stars in a show that refers to sex with her?

Inna Popenko (Инна Попенко)

Russian Playboy Playmate of the Year 2009. We don't know much about her, but chances are you knew nothing about her before you looked at this (plus, how much do you really need to know?). So spasibo us later.

Victoria Lopyreva (Виктория Лопырева)

Not Available Interstitial

Miss Russia 2003 is the pride of Rostov-on-Don (the Donness of Rostov-on-Don, perhaps), and unlike the majority of her beauty pageant sistren, Victoria is apparently not dumb as rocks (she served as director of the Miss Russia pageant in the mid-Aughts). Although there are some nice scenes of her crawling through the mud on the Russian Survivor (Last Hero).

Cherry Jul (Юлия )

Not Available Interstitial

A.w.a. (also works as) Cherrjul, Juliya Cherry, Lolita Cherry...from what we can gather she's a very, very, very naughty girl, specializing in no-holes-holds-barred threesomes, and judging from the number of movies she's done, she's not shy and she loves—really loves—to work. It can only be a matter of time before she's...wait for it...Cumming to America!

Who she? Oh just the Greatest Woman Pole Vaulter in History (trust, her L-phase is exemplary). And that might as well be the Greatest Pole Vaulter in History, because, really, who wants to watch dudes vaulting poles? Not that there's anything wrong with that...

Anna Anisimova (Анна Анисимова)

Anna's claim to fame? Her super-rich aluminum magnate daddy hooked up with her smokin' hot mama and made Anna. You and your crushed Budweiser cans behind the shed got no chance.

Anna Trebunskaya (Анна Требунская)

She's been paired with football legends Jerry Rice and Kurt Warner (former bag boy!), UFC fighter Chuck Liddell, and Police Academy star Steve Guttenberg on Dancing with the Stars, but the pair that tends to get looked at the most are her legs. They are real (no prostheses!) and they are spec-tac-ular.

Eugenia Volodina (Евгения Володина)

Not Available Interstitial

Another in a long line of Russian nymphs intimate with Mickey Rourke, Eugenia (or "Eug" as her friends call her) also has the standard Russian bombshell résumé: Victoria Secret, Elle and Vogue, as well as the Pirelli Calendar. If you're into NSFW shower tile design (as we are!) check out her Gianluca Fontana photos.

Svetlana Stepankovskaya (Светлана Степанковская)

Not Available Interstitial

"Svetlana" is perhaps the sexiest name of all time. "Stepankovskaya"? Not so much. Still, Miss Krasnodarskiy 2008 finished second in the 2009 Miss Russia pageant, losing out to a "Sofia" (No. 2 sexiest name?).

Victoria Dayneko (Виктория Дайнеко)

Not Available Interstitial

A singer from the eastern Russian sticks, Victoria won the 5th season of Star Factory (kind of a Russian version of American Idol except with the music-industry-as-sausage-making-operation part not only acknowledged, but trotted out front and center for all to see). She's since gone on to have a successful career on her own, and even posed for Playboy in 2007 (another notch for the Russkis in the "Why Russia Is Better Than the U.S." debate).

Irson Kudikova (Ирсон Кудикова)

The world is a funny place. Ivan Drago was the Russian supervillian played by Dolph Lundgren (Swedish) in Rocky IV. In the film he's married to Ludmilla Vobet Drago, played by Brigitte Nielsen (Danish) who once had a fling with Flavor Flav (American), who...now where were we? Oh yes, Lundgren (not Russian) directed the action/thriller Command Performance which prominently featured the music of Irson Kudikova (we'd get to her sooner or later) who is Russian, and who is also very, very hot. Look for both Lundgren and Irson at the award ceremonies come straight-to-DVD Oscar season. Like we said, funny place.

This is definitely no uni-browed Bullwinkle Natasha, but an Uzbekistan-born Russian beauty most recently seen in the last season of True Blood (she's also been in CSI, NYPD Blue, Nip/Tuck, The Unit, and Entourage. Quick, call the fire brigade, we've got a four-Alam fire...in our pants! OK, that definitely came out wrong.

Natalia Sokolova (Наталья Соколова)

Sokolova? Don't they call it futbol in Russia? Anyway, this is a former Playboy Playmate whose turn-offs include indecency and imprudence which we guess means you'll only find her on the softcore side of the pillow.

If Urashova you're going to have to go to timeout and learn to play nice with the other kids... And that, folks, is the last terrible pun we make with these Russian names, promise. Maybe. Anyway, Olga's the 2005 Dutch Playboy Playmate of the Year (she now resides in Amsterdam), she speaks Russian, English, Dutch, and Spanish, she studied International Relations in college, and she's got a tattoo on her shoulder blade, a piercing in her navel, AND GIANT FRICKIN' KNOCKERS.

Russia's known for its hot tennis players, but it's got a hottie on the links as well. We're not really sure how she swings a club with those things in the way, but there's something about how she holds that follow through on her drives...PING!

Oksana Pochepa (Оксана Почепа)

Not Available Interstitial

Oksana started in show biz as a teenager in the band Maloletka, which roughly translates to "Jailbait" (we're actually serious this time). She's since come of age and been linked to Mel Gibson. Jailbait and Mel Gibson—what the fuck you got on your little resume, playboy?

Anna Semenovich (Анна Семенович)

Ice dancer, model, Eurovision contestant, but NOT the heiress to the vast Semen-Os fortune (and you thought American rumor mongering was bad). In 2008 she released a solo album that sounds, when English-ized and pronounced phonetically, like "Crzhgy."

Elena Berkova (Елена Беркова)

Here's a resume you don't see all the time: TV host, pop singer, porn star, and that last part includes a "project" directed by a member of parliament. Yeah, we see your invisible hand Adam Smith; ain't capitalism swell?!?

Born Alsou Ralifovna Abramova, Alsou's the daughter of a super-rich Russian oligarch and is married to another super-rich dude. She's also got a career of her own as a singer. Now, call us cynical if you must, but maybe, just maybe, numbers 2 and 3 above don't happen without number 1?

Anne Vyalitsyna (Анна Вялицина)

You may know "Anne V" from the last six SI Swimsuit Issues; she's also graced the covers of Glamour, Elle, and Vogue, and appeared in videos for Alanis Morissette and Maroon 5. Speaking of which, she apparently has a thing for losers, as she's currently dating M5 frontman Adam Levine and she also roots (in a NSFW way) for the Cubs.

Yes, this is a list of Hot Russian women, but what you don't know is this whole production was just an elaborate ruse to give us a platform to talk about our real passion: Finnish symphonic metal. Anya appeared as a wounded angel in Nightwish's possibly-the-finest-piece-of-recorded-music-ever 2007 anthem "Amaranth." We probably shouldn't do this, but the link to the video is here. If you're able to continue looking at such a frivolous list of hot women after a dose of Nightwish, you're stronger men than we.

Friske? Oh yes, thank you! Unfortunately, the actress/singer/socialite is a member of the all-girl group Blestyashchie and not a member of the all-dude group Blestenation. It'd be a lot cooler if she was, though. Oh well.

In related tech news, visiting too many websites containing .ru is dangerous for your computer, especially when you click on to too many Cyrillic hot links that for some reason keep redirecting you to IrinaVoronina@mstrbate.com. For those of you who prefer to do it old school, there's the January 2001 Playboy and a spread in Perfect 10.

Natalia Vodianova (Наталья Водянова)

One of the highest earning supermodels in the world, Natalia reps Gucci, among other brands. Alas, as the Kremlin continues to consolidate power and Russia becomes an increasingly authoritarian state, her chances of joining forces with Diddy for a "Votey or Nova" campaign diminish every day.

Model, muse to Ryan Leslie (but don't blame her for his lack of imagination), current girlfriend of futboller Cristiano Ronaldo, and star of Kanye's "Power" video, Irina is that chick. Not bad for a girl from the South Urals. So not bad, in fact, that we'll refrain from using one of our multitudinous "Urals" jokes in describing her. Although she can definitely Shayk it! *begins self-immolation*
