10 Beautiful Ukrainian Women Who Deserve Our Respect (2 of 5)

Olya Polyakova

A native to Vinnitsya in central Ukraine, Polyakova was born to a family of doctors. It was their wish that she pursue medicine as well, but Olya — also known as the Ukrainian Lady Gaga — had other plans. She has a successful career as a singer, TV presenter, and comedian. She also claims to have the longest legs in Ukraine. Measuring at 4 ft 2 in (1.27 meters), she might have an argument to make.

Masha Efrosinina

A popular TV host born in Kerch, Crimea, Efrosinina is noted for her pearly white teeth and beautiful brown hair. She first gained fame when she performed on Eurovision in 2005 in front of a television audience of 150 million. Aside from her success on TV, she is also known for supporting various humanitarian causes. In recognition of this, she was chosen as the United Nations Population Fund Goodwill Ambassador in 2018.

Iryna Fedyshyn

This Lviv-born beauty has a father who performed music in his spare time, but didn’t see it as a profession that could lead to anything. As a result, he encouraged his daughter to take up chess. But from an early age, she proved that she had the kind of musical talent that could take her place. Proficient in both guitar and the synthesizer, she often travels around Ukraine performing solo concerts. She has also won several awards for her music.
