Interview ; Snejana Onopka Model Springsummer06

[ophelia0thy0mermaid]

She's so honest and eloquent compared to some other models... she doesn't pretend to be someone she's not just to suck up to the industry. And of course she is divinely beautiful. A rare jewel <3

[OnlyLightGirl]

I love her accent :)

[andymadrid]

LOVE HER! Don't know why she isn't used more in the shows!?!

[EkaterinaSorbonnePar]

@nkt123abc I, for example, undestand perfectly Ukrainian speech, but I can't speak it.

So far I have never heard Snejana speaking Ukrainian. In all her interviews she speaks Russian only, even when the questions are posed in Ukrainian.

[EkaterinaSorbonnePar]

@nkt123abc Ukrainian and Russian belong to the same language family. It's like French and Italian. They are different and similar at the same time.

Practically all, if not all, Ukrainians speak fluently both languages. We, Russians, don't speak Ukrainian but it's no problem to learn it. It's not that complicated for Russian native speakers.

[EkaterinaSorbonnePar]

@nkt123abc No, they are very different. But Snejana always speaks Russian. I have never heard her speak Ukrainian.

[takennnnnan]

hmm..she's so good in what she does.one of the amazing models i would say.but personality? the way she answer questions, urghhh..she just doesn't feel like open up to people.she seems sad and pretty boring.

[EkaterinaSorbonnePar]

Oh no, she is not boring. She doesn't know English good enough to be open and extremely interesting and funny. In Russian she is a very smart woman. I like reading her interviews. And very open too. In the last interview I have read she was speaking about her ex.

[AnitnelavCoeur]

I really like Snejana's catwalk and her beautiful face (that is a rare thing among modelling girls) but by the time she was interviewed here('06) she'd been modelling for at least 4 yrs. A great term for learning a language.And her pronunciation of english words is terrible.Why doesn't she even try to imitate natives? It's a shame!

[lumierelovely]

its call an accent. some ppl cant help it.

[StationMannequin]

@AnitnelavCoeur i am very sorry but spring/summer 06 was her first season, so she had no chance to learn english!!! if you watch interviews now she speaks much better!!!

[TheBeautyBoutique]

wow she is even more beautiful without makeup, such a naturally pretty face

[TheBeautyBoutique]

she is so sweet!

[dav08zxc]

aw, I love her and her incredible walk! =)

[osmentkoo]

i love her name....

[0dour]

i like her much less now

[jsb3287]

she is so beautiful but its pretty obvious that she doesnt really want to model. shes only doing it for the money. kinda comes across cold 2.

[4st5lbs]

mm.

many eastern european girls do it mostly for the money.

to get out of poverty and do well for themselves.. although im not saying this is the case for Snejana

[EkaterinaSorbonnePar]

"To get out of poverty". There's the same degree of poverty in Ukraine and Russia as in America. Stop talking nonsense.

[4st5lbs]

re-read my comment.

and take into consideration

dont be so damn ignorant.

[EkaterinaSorbonnePar]

I have re-read it. You showed your ignorance in this comment. There's no poverty in Eastern European countries. So many Eastern European girls don't have to get out of poverty. They are models just for the same reasons as girls from GB, France, US etc. You have to read something about Russia and Ukraine before saying these things.

[4st5lbs]

so you're telling me theres no poverty in eastern europe?

haha fine.

if you think that, i cant possibly waste my time debating with you

[EkaterinaSorbonnePar]

No, not at all. And you ahve to read more and watch programmes about E Europe, if you have no money to travel there. Don't show your ignorance, please.

[4st5lbs]

If 'There's the same degree of poverty in Ukraine and Russia as in America' then since according to you, there is no poverty there, then there can't be poverty anywhere?!

theres poverty all around the fucking world. stop being so naive.

[EkaterinaSorbonnePar]

Yeah, you are right. All around the world. But in Russia and Ukraine there is no more poverty than in Europe and America. So, your phrase "many Eastern European girls do modelling to get out of poverty" is far-fetched. The reasons why EE girls model are the same as the reasons for modelling of American, French etc. girls. That's what I wanted to say.

[4st5lbs]

many.. not the majority not all, just many. which i think is right.

and also, im not referring to the same degrees of poverty as in concentration camps etc. im just saying for a better life, a substancial one.

and by no means does that apply to every single Eatern European model. just some. but i can understand how it may be interpreted wrongly. maybe i should have explained what i meant a little more.

[EkaterinaSorbonnePar]

Now I agree with you. I didn't like your word "poverty". And I found your phrase a bit humiliating. I am also an Eastern European girl. Maybe it was my distorted perception of your opinion. I didn't mean to bother you with this discussion.

[4st5lbs]

no its fine, i didn't mean to make you feel in any way uneasy or inferior. east europe is beautiful with people to match!

and i could tell by your name ekaterina.. pretty name :)

[EkaterinaSorbonnePar]

Thank you very much!

[watwuzmyusername]

she has an amazing face

[chuckzzy09]

i think snejana is beautiful maybe a bit thin but there is little you can do the industry controls your life not her fault

[ApparentEquilibrium]

anorexic? maybe. BUT - It's her choice, her job. she is paid for her body & face.

no way, I can't help myself - for me she is beautiful. :)

[manatsunoshi]

anorexic or not, i luv her attitude.

[LoliNana]

I agree, she's so beautiful and a talented model.

[d1sintegration]

snejana is amaaazing. <3

[biatch0706]

I really miss her already.

I'm looking forward for her latest videos.

She will always be beautiful in my eyes.

[soffayst]

she's so pretty.

[honeywella]

I think she always look so sad and upset.. I don't know why

[czijok]

did you see her old naked photos? Those in the kitchen with the another girl? She had a normal body back then which means she lost a lot of weight and which means this is not her natural state. She looks like a skeleton, even for models standards.

[510682]

omg she commented on those photos saying its not her and its someone else!

[dzelsliezudzelzscels]

I understand Snejana's accent because I'm Russian and I understand what means to be skinny.I love my body and I enjoy my life.I'm sure Snejana is doing the same. There no need to be talks about anorexia.

[abh2360]

I love her voice!! It's like sweet child

[shingman9]

HOT!!!!

[kitschyfox]

I don't think she has an attitude problem, I love her personality.

[levaai]

she is so beautiful! that's what i call a blonde bombshell :D

[chicken855]

is she a shallow person or is there too much of a language barrier??....im just wonndering how you can't explain your personality..

[LimeTheSlime]

haha she's so cute and sweet.

you can tell she's actually pretty shy when the interviewer is asking her questions.

[hailberry10]

LOL.. i like the way she speaks, it's so funny..

[hailberry10]

LOL.. i like the way she speaks, it's so funny..

[effceeyoukay]

ahahhaha so funny & cute; i can see how she could come off a little rude, but she actually just seems just really chill & that's all.

"could you explain your personality?"

"No, i cannot explain. sorry"

lolol :D

[biatch0706]

"could you explain your personality?"

"No, i cannot explain. I'm sorry"

I agree. haha. That's just the way she is :]

[JulaGem]

well she meant she could not put it into english...

[effceeyoukay]

yea.. i was going to say that..like she didn't know the words to..or maybe she didn't know exactly what the interviewer meant by explain..it's cool, don't take it too seriously ;)

[afiqleo]

i dun care what eva ppl syin' about her......i'm thrill....because i seriously thought she's everywhere.....

you see her in dior...

then versace....

lanvin....

gucci....

huh...

lovin' it.....

[xxMulatto]

But there are also people who are lucky to have a high metabolism so not every skinny person is anorexic.

[xxMulatto]

But there are also people who are lucky to have a high metabolism so not every skinny person is anorexic.

[xxMulatto]

She is anorexic. she weighted about 99 pounds and she is 5"8 tall . No, you dont have to be anorexic just cuz u underweight, but she is. Thats why she has been refused from attending some shows because she was too skinny. She was told to put on about 9 pounds or leave the business. I red that.

I had an eating disorder too also after my diet (though I was never fat) so I know what its like. but im strugglin wit it . and ppl tell me i got so skinny, but im not starving myself.

[Mana]

shes not anorexic, of course she doesn't eat fucking burgers and fries, but shes naturally thin and under ears a bit, every single model does that, They're naturally thin and they eats a bit less then they should and they get quite thin and maintain. they have naturally small thin bones. and idk why they would ban her from shows, models like Natasha Poly and Olga aore skeletal as well and no one mentions it as much as they do about snejana.

[xxMulatto]

you dont have to starve yourself to have an eating disorder. i know that cus i been on a diet, where i ate about 600-800 calories a day and ran a lot every day and that turned into an eating disorder and also my period stopped which is still irregular (im 15). and i also had a lot of other anorexia symptoms too. so even though your not anorexic you can still have an eating disorder, and it is one if you dont eat normal and its physical .

[xxMulatto]

but i dont know if shes anorexic or not, im just saying what i heard . cus a lot of people make it seem like just because a model is really skinny, it means that they are anorexic. it doesnt. i think she is beautifull.

[imajetsetter]

I'm not saying she's anorexic or anything, because it is a psychological problem and I don't know myself, but we don't if all models are naturally thin. We've never seen how they were before they were models, but there's a possibility some of them work out or are anorexic or some them are suppressing themselves in ways but may not necessarily fall in the category having ED.

[PsionicJedi]

She's so gorgeous.

[ProudandVain]

Her english is awful, but I like her anyway :D

[narnarlovesu]

her face looks liek very bored liek on the runway just dull but its new and she pulls it off

[biatch0706]

Yeah. she's very serious and determined when she's on the runway but backstage she's usually a sweet and adorable one.

[kissthearsonist]

She's thin, she is. But look at those godsent eyes!

[biatch0706]

I like Snejana a lot, she's real when she talks in front of the camera :]

[NoraClaire]

she is about 99lbs / 44.8kg , i saw it on tv when she had to step on the scale for the camera team at her apartment.. oh my gosh!

and i mean she's like really tall?

i call that underweight!

but -nevermind- i would love to look like her! O_O

[sourcheesepringles]

i think she's anorexic because if she's naturally thin her bones wouldn't be that obvious.. naturally thin people have smaller bones..

[xcherryvanillax]

not all people who are underweight are anorexic.anorexia is a mental disease.

[si96]

Her body is too thin for my taste, but her face is very beautiful. Practically perfect.

[perfectpivovarova]

shes stunning. i adore her, her persionality is so cool too!

and even if she does have an eating disorder, its her choice okay? dont judge her for it. its her life, not the publics.

[kiotabandal]

Her choice, but she's very ill and basically dying from it, while her agents advertise her as feminine beauty.

[perfectpivovarova]

i agree. i dont want her to die, or get sick. but as a model, that is what they expect you to do. and she probably smokes instead of eating. but i agree, and hope that she stays well.

(at least modeling dosent last long, and shell be able to get back to a regular life again)

[99999999d]

she is amazing im naturally thin i weigh 6 stone and im 5'4 and i eat loads she doesnt seem the type to have an eating disorder she seems very happy

[kiotabandal]

The "type" to have an eating disorder? There is no "type", that's incredibly ignorant.

[99999999d]

well there sort of is a type actually because there is quite a few signs lyk thining of the hair stuff like that i dont wanna start an arguments but you can normally tell if someone has an eating disorder

[99999999d]

i no you shouldnt excuse any1 of having 1 loads of people accuse me of having1 but i think i look healthy and i think she looks healthy wear as some models really do look like they have 1

[InfectedToenail]

I'm kind of sick of models being accused of eating disorders. If you're not a doctor, you can't give a medical diagnosis. :)

[kiotabandal]

However, I do happen to know her BMI, which doctors use, and according to it, there is absolutely NO way she has that body naturally unless she has some sort of serious illness.

[MrBrightside131]

she´s so beautiful, i love her.

[fazelinae]

She has the best cheekbones

[huckaf]

shes great , i love her body ,and her hair....is...the perfect hair i ever seen

simply gorgeous

[ln0088]

this is an old video, if you look at recent pictures of her you can see that she has gained a little weight, and she looks a lot better.

[annaisjesus]

emaciation is ridiculously skinny... doctors don't use body mass index anymore these days, but emaciation is a body mass index of less than 15.5. Normal people have a BMI between 19 and 25.

[WagnerianSoprano]

You should know better not to listen to rumors. Sure shes thin but who are you to judge from just what you heard?

Besides Snejana is my favorite model! And all models get accused of an eating disorder.

[kiotabandal]

She's not just "thin", she's medically emaciated. You don't get that way naturally.

[mexicancrazyjesus]

what does medically emaciated mean?

[kiotabandal]

It means her BMI is under 15 and any sane doctor would consider her to be emaciated. Generally "underweight" is BMI under 18.5, anorexic is under 17.5. Some people have a BMI around 16-18 naturally, but they're rare. However there is no way someone has a BMI that is EMACIATED naturally.

[rosetintedwishes]

kiotabanal

I find it pathetic that other people have rated your comment negatively purely because you stated a fact.

[KungFu17]

i think she'll have health problems later...i heard she wasn't naturally that thin..

[cjcjxx]

she has always been very thin. she may look unnaturally thin but a small amount of people are born this way.

[KungFu17]

and there are people who are naturally obese, but that doesn't make them immune from health problems because of it. so either way...

[tehani22]

sorry avonore Im not jalous! cuz I like her very much,; she's one of my favorite model but she's also one of the more more skinny!

sorry to say I don't like people saying " oh yeah U'r just jalous" also they don't know me!Im just 48kg and 1.70 m I don't think I eat too much sandwiches!!

ps: sorry for my english, Im french

[avonore1]

what????? you should stop eating so much sandwiches if you say something like that youre just jaloues

[tehani22]

please give this girl a sandwich

[iloveVersace]

The woman mispronounced her name!

[Vanillachickie1]

Nope! in Europe the J is prononced Y...so it looks like Snejana, but its Sneyana.

[iloveVersace]

I am eastern european so I know how to pronounce her name!

[anjaookay]

she sounds like my grandmother.

[YouAreLookingAtMe]

Snejana rulez !!! ;*

[Cococure83]

Love her walk... its so camp!

[Dorcy123]

[xfightcityx]

[celene112]

i wish mags would adopt her back.. i wanna see more of her.

[gemmalover]

[xian1586]

i think taht's her body type.she loks really skinny on hte runway , but u can see she's a healthy girl whe's she's speaking ...she's soy uong (looks so much older)

[Lindsayluver13]

I love her despite whatever scandal

[fence1467]

hmmmmm what's her scandal??? I heard that she is a bit of a diva backstage, but she seems nice and is a great model and i guess that's what really matters

[StrawberryBigMac]

[vuittonham]

onopkan forever <3

[Torreeeess9]
