Face of Russian World Cup insists she's a victim of revenge porn
The Russian football supporter dubbed the ‘hottest World Cup fan’ by a leading image agency has hit back at reports she is a porn star.
Natalya Nemchinova has been pictured supporting the hosts at all three of their games and a Kremlin-owned news agency quickly distributed pictures of the 28-year-old after the opening game.
But it soon became apparent on social media that she was in-fact an adult glamour model, who had appeared in a number of X-Rated films under aliases such as Natali Nemtchinova, Natalia Andreeva, Delilah G, Danica, Amanda, Asya, and Annabell.

Despite Russia Today, a Putin propaganda machine, confirming she was indeed a porn actress last week, Nemchinova has refuted claims she works in that industry, instead saying she is the victim of revenge porn.
“Some will be upset, but I have never worked in the porn industry,” she told Moskovsky Komsomolets (MK) newspaper, despite clear evidence online of her on online porn sites.
“Everything that they write about me is not true. I also saw this information, but you will not find the films anywhere.

She added: “Five years ago I had a young man. We broke up. He began to take revenge.
“He threw one video on the Internet, and since then it goes like a snowball. Then he posted all my pictures.
“I have never worked as a porn actress, I did not sell myself. At one time I worked as a model.
“But it was my hobby. Not a permanent job. I work in a fitness club, I get a salary. And this is what I enjoy.

“I have heard about all the news from my friends. Since I’m not on the Internet, I do not read what’s happening there. And in the last week they began to [tell me]: “Look what they write about you”.
“To say that I was shocked is to say nothing. I even cried at first. I’m lucky to be surrounded by people who support me and know who I am and what I represent.
“Now it is important for me to close this topic. I want my position to be heard. I never dreamed of such glory, I did not think that I would be positioned as a porn star.
“You’ve met me, you know, that this entire story on the Internet is not about me. But the world decided differently.”
