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

In Moscow, Pimenova practiced rhythmic gymnastics, under Olga Kapranova.[5] In 2013, she competed in a gymnastics tournament in Tatarstan organized by Alina Kabaeva, winning a gold medal in her age group.

In April 2015, she appeared on the cover of Vogue Kids.[9]

Later in 2015, Pimenova moved to California, USA with her mother. A documentary about Pimenova aired on RTL Television in October 2016.[10]

Acting

Pimenova played a post-production part as a singing child in the Italian fantasy film .[11] [12] In an interview for Posh Kids Magazine, she expressed her wish to become a professional actress and film director.[13] 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.[14]

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.[15] 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".[16]
