“There should be a lot of a good person” – this is clearly not about the heroines of our selection. Having rewarded them with talent and beauty, nature “rested” on their growth, but this made them even more attractive.
Small stature has never been a problem for girls, so they do not worry about this and fascinate with their appearance.
10 Christina Asmus: 164 cm
The actress, who is now 31 years old, has been short since childhood, but very athletic, eventually becoming a candidate for master of sports in artistic gymnastics.
In addition to sports, she was fond of the theater, first appearing on stage in elementary school. She was inspired to become an actress by Natalia Oreiro, whom young Asmus saw in the TV series Wild Angel.
Now Christina is a recognizable actress (mainly because of the role of Varya Chernous in Interns) and is happily married to Garik Kharlamov. Garik, by the way, is 22 cm taller than his wife.
9. Anastasia Zavorotnyuk: 162 cm
Another actress who became famous thanks to just one role in the television series. Of course, we are talking about the My Fair Nanny project, which has long been a phenomenon of Russian TV.
If for such a role her growth does not matter much, then seeing her as a tough FSB agent in the action movie The Apocalypse Code was rather unusual. Small, but coped on the screen with men a cut above and stronger.
Since 2008, Anastasia has been married to figure skater Pyotr Chernyshev, who is 26 cm taller than his wife.
8. Alla Pugacheva: 162 cm
The prima donna of the Russian stage, which celebrated its 15th anniversary on April 70, is now incorrectly called a beauty, at least because of her advanced age, but we must not forget about the times of her youth.
In her best years, she was the main singer in the country, overshadowing everyone not only in popularity, but also in beauty.
Despite the fact that objectively she never had a model appearance, some unknown magic allowed her to conquer men’s hearts throughout the Soviet Union.
Now Alla Borisovna is married for the fifth time: her husband Maxim Galkin is 28 years younger than the singer and 18 cm taller.
7. MaxSim: 160 cm
This singer, whose name is Marina Abrosimova, was one of the main stars of the national stage in the XNUMXs. Her hits “Do You Know”, “Tenderness”, “My Paradise”, etc. were truly viral in those years, although the very concept of “viral song” came into use much later.
In addition to music, which MakSim has been doing since childhood, she was also seriously interested in karate, having managed to get a red belt.
By the way, she did not invent her pseudonym: as a child, she spent a lot of time with her older brother Maxim Abrosimov, for which she was nicknamed after him.
6. Anna Khilkevich: 160 cm
And again, the actress, known exclusively for one role, although she has several dozen of them (most of them episodic).
The stupid but sexy Masha from Univer in her performance turned out exactly as it should: on her remarks, the male part of the audience usually turned off the brain and did not listen, but simply looked at the face, figure, movements.
Supporting her reputation, she starred for the covers of MAXIM and Playboy.
5. Marina Aleksandrova: 158 cm
A graduate of the Shchukin Theater School, she began her career in 2000, appearing in the episode “Kamikaze” of the series “Empire Under Attack”.
The very next year, she received her first major role, and immediately in a big movie – the drama “Northern Lights”. True, the film itself cannot be called great – a typical Russian trickster, which nonetheless allowed it to prove itself and attract the attention of directors.
4. Julia Savicheva: 157 cm
The peak of Yulia Savicheva’s popularity also came in the XNUMXs, when she competed with Maxim, having a similar target audience.
In her school years, the singer was fond of ballroom dancing and twice became the champion of Moscow with her partner.
She began her path to fame in 2003 on the show “Star Factory 2”, in which, although she did not win, she became a finalist and built a successful career.
3. Julia Volkova: 157 cm
Julia from childhood was fond of not only music, where she later realized herself, but also theater. So, in 1995, she even went to school with theatrical training, which is far from being everywhere.
In the future, this helped her get the first roles in the Yeralash film magazine (she starred in the episodes Help Me Out and Mannequin).
In the field of music, she showed herself already at the age of 9, when she was accepted into the vocal and instrumental ensemble “Fidgets”, which a year later her future partner in the duet “Tatu” Lena Katina joined.
The latter, by the way, is only 5 cm taller than Volkova, and we did not include her in the list only because the singer, after the collapse of the team, works mainly in the West.
2. Irina Pegova: 155 cm
In addition to acting (Pegova not only acts in films and TV shows, but also devotes a lot of time to the theater), her popularity was ensured by her participation in the Dancing with the Stars project, where she, together with Andrei Kozlovsky, became the winner in 2015.
Her modest height certainly made it easier for him: it is quite convenient to carry out support and pick up such a tiny partner in his arms.
1. Natalia Varley: 150 cm
Let’s finish the selection with another beauty of the past, who conquered the entire male population of the USSR with the role of Nina in Gaidai’s cult comedy “Prisoner of the Caucasus, or Shurik’s New Adventures.”
At the time of filming, Natalya was only 19 years old, but she had already graduated with honors from the acrobatic department of the State School of Circus and Variety Art.
It is noteworthy that in childhood she was a sickly child and did not even attend physical education, having a release, but later she herself decided to become a tightrope walker.
While performing on the stage of the Moscow Circus on Tsvetnoy Boulevard, she met the famous clown Leonid Yengibarov, who brought her into the world of cinema through his friend director Yungvald-Khinkevich.
He gave her the first role in the film “Formula of Love”, after which Varley became seriously interested in filming and went to audition for “Prisoner of the Caucasus”.
