Maria Shantanova in the project “Speaking Buryat”:

October 22, 2016, 12:02

Inspired by posts about beauties..

Having arrived in China as a student in the early 2000s, among a huge number of all kinds of Asian beauties and fierce competition in modeling business, Buryat Maria Shantanova, still unknown to anyone in the Celestial Empire, has become the face of a famous world brand. Maria herself modestly considers this a kind of “lucky coincidence.” However, it is worth assuming that luck here is certainly coupled with something more.

Of course, Maria has not only external beauty, but also that inner potential, strength and energy, without which conquering further heights of show business or anything else is impossible. There are too many beautiful women in the world and so few who are remembered.

If until recently Asia and the East were the quintessence of Mary’s life, now her Western, American stage has begun. She decided to leave her career as a businesswoman and join the cohort of bright Hollywood Asians, following in the footsteps of Lucy Liu, Michelle Yeo, Zhang Ziyi... Why not? Our heroine clearly has everything for this: experience, youth, exotic beauty and the ability to be different in the frame. Everything in order to realize that great American dream.

Maria Shantanova was born on November 2, 1985 in Ulan-Ude, Republic of Buryatia, Russian Federation. Russian fashion model, actress, individual entrepreneur. Having graduated from linguistic gymnasium No. 3 of the city of Ulan-Ude (specialization - English, German and Latin languages), Maria went to study in China and entered the Faculty of Art and Design (Department of Design, specialty "Interior Design") Tsinghua University (清华大学 (Chinese) university in Beijing, People's Republic of China). After graduation After studying, Maria began working as an import-export manager in various large international companies, after which she opened her own business related to the supply and logistics of furniture and various goods from China to Russia, organizing a family furniture business in Ulan-Ude, Russia.

Random model

It is noteworthy that her career in the modeling business began accidentally and unexpectedly, when Maria was sitting in a cafe with friends. That day, she was simply noticed by representatives of the fashion industry and offered to try herself in this industry.

As a result, Maria signed her first modeling contract with NESTLE (Beijing) and became the face of Nescafe Gold coffee (2007-2009) in China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan.

Subsequently, the Hong Kong branch of the international modeling agency Elite Model Management became interested in her. In 2008, Maria signed a contract with Elite Hong Kong. During her work in Hong Kong, Maria took part in many major projects with famous photographers and video projects of companies, including: she was the face of the Watsons Stores worldwide cosmetics line, Creaser Medical Spa and Beauty Center Hong Kong. Popular magazines Marie Claire, Jessica, Milk Magazine, Face magazine featured her photos on their pages, and her name also appeared on the cover of East & West. DIGITAL ARTIST MICHAEL OSWALD agency chose Maria to be the face of Photoshop Book Worldwide (this book can be purchased at different countries world), Galaktika Magazine in Europe.

With all this, the work of a fashion model was more of a “hobby”, because at that time Maria, fluent in several languages, was actively running an import and export business between Russia and China.

However, in 2011, the girl signed a contract with one of the leading modeling agencies in Singapore - Diva Model Management. This completely immersed her in modeling work.

It is interesting that in China, a billion-strong country, an Asian woman from Russia managed to take her firm place as a model and cover face. This resulted in numerous interviews (Women’s Weekly, Stuff Magazine, Lancome advetodrial, etc.) both in China and in the girl’s homeland.

Siberian Angelina Jolie

Many people, seeing Maria’s smile for the first time, catch themselves thinking that she is very reminiscent of Angelina Jolie. In the Asian version. She has the same warmth, charm, sea of ​​femininity and attractiveness.

It is no coincidence that in 2014, a Russian author’s online magazine dedicated to the anthropology of man and his role in history and culture, published an article ranking the most beautiful famous women Republic of Buryatia, where Maria topped the list. In the same year, various media publishing houses in the country published rating articles about the most beautiful representatives various peoples Russia, among which Maria was recognized as the most beautiful representative of Buryatia.

Maria's face, unlike many Asian faces, according to the makeup artists who worked with the model, is surprisingly plastic. From such a universal face, you can “blind” anything you want with the help of makeup and lighting. And this is especially valuable for those who work with the camera.

In the summer of 2015, Masha took part in the filming of the films “Lady Bloodfight” and “Snowblade”, directed by English director, screenwriter and producer Bey Logan.

It must be said that in the history of world cinema, there are not so many people from Buryatia or people of Mongolian origin. At one time, actor Valery Inkizhinov became famous, having played in many European films. Famous actor Yul Brynner for his Mongolian roots. Just like the Hollywood star Uma Thurman...

However, those who really dream about it end up in the “Dream Factory” and stay there, learning its crowd, unwritten rules, etc.

This year, Maria has already attended a pre-Oscar event organized by Weisntein. The event was attended by such stars as singers Lady Gaga, Justin Timberlake, Zendaya, Lana Del Ray, Nick Jonas; famous actors as Bryan Cranston, Jessica Biel, Jared Leto, Ashley Tisdale, famous athletes Roger Federer and Lewis Hamilton, Oscar-winning Italian composer Ennio Moriccone.

And then it became known that the Buryat beauty became the face of the Dolce & Gabbana brand. This was reported by the brand's official Instagram account. The comment to the photo talks about “simple and effective way» become irresistible: apply a “radiant” cream to the skin, line your eyes with a liner and complete the look with a classic “passionate” red lipstick. Previously, there were rumors that Maria Shantanova entered into an official cooperation contract with Dolce & Gabbana.

Buryat Maria Shantanova model. photo

From time immemorial, black-haired beauties with expressive eyes, velvety skin, a flexible figure and a mysterious smile have been sung by poets and recreated on canvas by artists. Now, in the era of beauty contests and modeling business, oriental girls are firmly entrenched on the podium and continue to outshine hundreds of competitors with their outlandish appearance. In Russia, Buryatia is rightfully considered their homeland. Everywhere you look, one is more beautiful than the other. Komsomolskaya Pravda compiled the TOP ten most tender, passionate and sexy Siberian women. The list was prepared with the support of the Sophia Ni modeling agency.

1. You won’t get lost with Evgenia either in Europe or in Asia, because she is fluent in both English and Korean. The girl not only works as a model, but is also endowed with acting talents and acts in films. By the way, in 2011 she became a finalist in the prestigious TV show “Korean’s Next Top Model-2.”

2. “Nothing is impossible!” - Anna thinks and continues to dream of traveling around the world. And someday she will definitely accomplish it, and therefore she never ceases to be interested in photography in order to capture the brightest moments in photographs. Don’t be surprised if Anna speaks to you in English or German - the girl is graduating from the Faculty of Foreign Languages ​​this year.

3. Once you hear the sounds of the guitar strings that Baligma plucks at least once, you will never forget them. But the girl did not want to follow in the musician’s footsteps, but chose a very necessary profession for herself - she is studying at the Faculty of Law.

4. Narana owns the secrets of many famous people. She loves reading their biographies, and is also interested in history and loves cinema. Now the girl is finishing school and has already chosen her future profession. She will enter the Faculty of Architecture.

She was also able to attend the most prestigious shows in the country with Maria Tsigal and Igor Chapurin. Of course! After all, her motto is: there are no hopeless situations.

6. Why not take Lydia on a hike? She will always maintain a cheerful mood and good spirits, and will also shoulder some of the luggage on her fragile shoulders, because she loves forays into nature. And at rest stops you can play ultimate frisbee with her (a team sport with a flying disc. – editor’s note)

7. Behind Zhanna’s warm smile and kind gaze hides a real “panther”. And woe to anyone who offends her, because the girl knows kung fu techniques. Zhanna graduated from the Faculty of Economics and now works for an international consulting company in London. The girl became a finalist in the Miss Russia contest.

8. Inna is taking her first steps on the catwalk, but has already been recognized as the best model of 2013 in the Russian Silhouette design competition. She opened and closed the final show of Moscow Fashion Week by designer Natalia Valevskaya. The girl does yoga and cannot imagine her life without music.

9. Galya feels like a fish in water in the role of a model, although she is still in the 8th grade. By the way, she also feels like a fish in the water, because she has chosen swimming as her main hobby.

10. It’s amazing how Erzhena manages to keep up with everything! She participates in Fashion Weeks in Istanbul, Antalya, Dubai. She studies at Istanbul University and combines classes with work.
