Playboy model from iconic Pulp album cover has chilling link to Putin
A PLAYBOY model who featured on an iconic album cover has a surprising link to Russian tyrant Vladimir Putin.
Ksenia Sobchak, 41, posed for the lads’ mag in 2006 and was on the iconic cover of Pulp’s 1998 album, This Is Hardcore.
But the glamorous socialite ditched her party-ways and remade herself into a journalist and liberal politician who has been accused of being a “Kremlin stooge” by opposition activists.
She is Putin’s goddaughter and the offspring of one of his first political mentors – the ex mayor of St. Petersburg, Anatoly A. Sobchak – who put him on the path to presidency.
The unlikely pair have known each other since the 1990s when her dad launched Putin’s political career.
However, she has been vocal about being against the Ukraine war – and insists she helps residents of Russian border regions displaced by Ukrainian shelling.
She and the President have reportedly have not spoken since the war began, nor seen each other.
Sobchak now works as an influencer on YouTube, interviewing critics of the war. arrests of antiwar activists.
In a conversation with her 9.5million Instagram fans about the conflict, she said: “I believe that this is a horrific situation, but we’re going to get through this time, we’ll get through it together with our audience.”
Sobchak ran unsuccessfully in opposition to Putin in the 2018 election – in place of banned candidate Alexei Navalny.
Navalny accused her of being a puppet opposition candidate to Putin – to give the illusion of democracy.
She said at the time: “In a system created by Putin, it is only possible for Putin to win.
“I am realistic about who will become the president.”
Sobchak was hit by further controversy in her media career in 2022 when she was hunted by Russianpolice over claims of extortion and tax fraud.
At the time she claimed it was a “politically motivated move” when three of her former employees were accused of trying to extort money from the head of state-owned defense conglomerate Rostec.
After fleeing cops in Moscow, she escaped to Lithuania via Belarus after police arrested her business partner.
However, after returning to Russia, Sobchak visited the Rostec office to reconcile with boss Sergey Chemezov for the “actions of colleagues” accused of extortion and said “their fate will be decided by the court“.
When the three ex-employees were jailed for seven years, their former boss slammed the verdict as “way more than injustice.”
“I’ve done everything we had agreed to get leniency [for Kirill Sukhanov, Arian Romanovsky and Tamerlan Bigayev],” she wrote in a statement.
“Why are you ruining people’s lives?
“Why the disproportionality? Just as revenge?”
Her despair over the Ukraine war sparked a popular YouTube show in which she deals with stories that Russia’s state media usually turn a blind eye to.
Her interests include the arrests of antiwar activists, violence committed by soldiers returning from the front and human rights abuses in the southern region of Chechnya.
Speaking of the Ukraine war, Sobchak said: “We are all locked in this situation now. There is no way out.”
Ksenia – who was once named the 22nd most influential woman in Russia – was the Russian equivalent of Paris Hilton in the Noughties.
Watch jacked Ilia Topuria complete epic UFC 317 body transformation after ditching crash diet to lose over 40lbs
ILIA TOPURIA completed an epic body transformation at the official UFC 317 weigh-ins.
The former king of the featherweights will bid to claim the vacant lightweight title early on Sunday morning in the main event of the International Fight Week card in Las Vegas.
Topuria, 28, announced his move up to 155lbs in February after growing tired of the gruelling cut down to 145lbs.
The Georgian-born Spaniard has been sporting a much more muscle-bound frame over the last few months.
And he looked in incredible shape as he hit the scales at the official weigh-ins at the UFC Apex this afternoon.
‘El Matador’ looked lean and mean as he hit the lightweight championship mark of 155lbs for the first time.
Topuria used to cut over a STONE in weight to make the featherweight title fight limit, and the gruelling cut played a big role in his decision to leave the belt he won last February.
He told ESPN Deportes: “In that moment [when cutting weight], I’m so low.
“I feel terrible… I didn’t want to suffer anymore…
“It’s like living in the desert, and I wanted to live on the beach.”

Standing between Topuria and a second UFC title is former lightweight champion and fan favourite Charles Oliveira.
Topuria has immense respect for ‘Do Bronx’ but plans to brutally knock him out to fulfil his dream of becoming a two-division champion.
He said: “Charles is a great fighter.
“I’d say he’s a legendary fighter, one of the few still active in the UFC.
“But the truth is that his style fits perfectly with mine to put him to sleep in the first round.
“Because he has no mobility, he doesn’t move.”
Harry Styles sparks hopes of mini One Direction reunion at Glastonbury as he’s spotted backstage in tiny shorts
HARRY Styles made his Glastonbury debut as he donned his signature red sports shorts backstage at the festival as a punter.
It comes as his former One Direction bandmate Louis Tomlinson, 33, is also at Worthy Farm this weekend.
The singer, 31, was filmed hugging pals as he donned shades and a sports anorak in the Hospitality area.
He then headed off to watch band Franz Ferdinand at Worthy Farm flanked with a group of mates.
An onlooker said: “Harry was saying how excited he was to be at the festival and was hoping to go as incognito as possible so he could enjoy the music.
“He was politely declining having photos taken with fans as he wanted to keep a low profile and not draw too much attention to himself.
“He is bound to bump into Louis this weekend and it would be a great moment to witness.”
Down to earth Louis might be worth millions – but he’s chosen to keep it real at Glastonbury by camping close to the toilets.
He and girlfriend Zara McDermott, who he started dating earlier this year, were spotted hanging outside his tent following her documentary talk at The Information.
An onlooker said: “Louis loves to be a man of the people and he loves camping at Glastonbury – even though he’s got the cash to stay somewhere posh.
“Their tent is erected near the loos and they’re with a big group of friends.
“He was knocking back cans of Red Bull with Zara as they hung out with their mates.
“She gave a talk earlier at The Information on and Louis has joined her on site.
“They looked like they were having a ball together and Louis was really affectionate towards Zara and was making sure she had everything she needed.
“She was stroking his back and had a massive smile on her face.”
The Love Island star turned BBC documentary maker was part of a serious panel with Refuge charity yesterday afternoon.
The talk, entitled How to Create Societal Change: Tackling Violence Against Women and Girls took place on the small Information stage.
An onlooker said : “Zara looked a bit nervous but kept smiling at Louis and he made sure he was in her eyeline and was beaming back at her.
“It was really sweet to watch, they certainly seem very smitten with each other.”

‘Send him to JAIL’ rant Love Island stars after villa boy’s blazing row with ex
LOVE Island stars were left fuming after a villa boy’s blazing row with his ex and ranted “Send him to jail”.
The show’s producers posted a clip on social media of what could be one of the most hard-to-watch arguments in Love Island history.
In last night’s episode of Love Island, Yasmin Pettet, 24, had a blazing row with Ben Holbrough, 23 after he had said he was going to end things with her.
He blamed her for choosing him in the last recoupling, to which she replied: “Who else would I have chosen at the end of the day?”
Ben responded: “I haven’t ever really been feeling you to be fair.”
A shocked Yasmin sarcastically snapped back: “Okay, I’m glad you’re honest about that now. That’s really helpful.”
The argument then escalated and Ben nastily said: “You’re lucky Shea even picked you. To be fair, I think you’re lucky you’re even in here now to be fair.
“No one rated you when you were in here let’s say. You’ve only come out your shell because you’re in a couple with me.”
Finally, Yasmin snapped: “You’re so immature,” and Ben remarked that, “no man wants you in here.”
After watching the clip on Instagram, which was captioned: “I want to be the level of unbothered that Yasmin is” – viewers took to the comments section to slam Ben in droves.
Speaking of Ben’s behaviour, Love Island star Patsy Field said: “Is Jail time an option?”
Love Islander Alex Bowen added: “What a child!”
A fan added: “A man that speaks to women like this?? where did you get that man from????.”
“Bet his parents are proud of him tonight. Such a little boy. Shows how much he respects women,” said another.
“Everyone vote Yas for favourite girl I must see bens face,” said The Traitors star Freddie Fraser.
“YASMIN WE GOT YOU GIRL!” wrote TikTok sensation Lauren Ashley Saddington.

Aldi’s sand-free middle aisle bargain will change your seaside hols forever – & it’s £18 cheaper than John Lewis version
THERE is nothing worse than a sandy towel when sunbathing, but Aldi has solved the problem for holidaymakers.
The UK supermarket has launched its new affordable summer essentials in the Specialbuys collection.
Aldi’s summer essential
Middle aisle magpies will be excited to know of the latest treasure which will release on July 6.
Aldi has launched its new Sand-Free Blanket in a bid to make sunbathing even more relaxing and at the same time affordable.
Available for just £6.99 the beach towel is sure to be a summer must-have, especially considering it is a fraction of the price of some of similar products in other high street retailers.
Holidaymakers have a choice between ocean blue and sunset orange to add a bit of colour to their packing list.
John Lewis have their version of the summer essential which is priced at £25 and comes in a range of colours.
And yet, while both other similar quick-drying functionality the Aldi version is a whopping £18 cheaper.
How it works
To ensure hassle-free sunbathing for holidaymakers, Aldi’s beach towel repels sand from its surface.
It does this through its micro hole technology which means coarse sand grains, which can irritate the skin and make sunbathing unbearable, can easily fall off the surface.
What’s more the product is lightweight and compact and so it is easy to pack in a beach bag, and saves room for other holiday essentials in the ever-restrictive suitcases.
And in case of bad weather (it is the UK after all) the towel comes with pegs and a holes to ensure it stays in the same place.
More summer essentials to come
The middle aisle is always the place to find some absolute bargains, and Aldi have held nothing back this summer.
The supermarket has offered a solution to end the passive aggressive war of the holiday deck chair with its new Backpack Chair or Lounger.
For only £24.99, holidayers can either have a chair or sun lounger primed on their back in an easily transportable way.
It is almost half the price of similar products available on Amazon and Decathlon.
So there’s no need to squabble with other tourists for a sun lounger, as Aldi shoppers can now bring their own. And when the sun inevitably moves, so can you.
Aldi are also offering shoppers a 2-in-1 Beach Shade for an affordable £19.99.
What may cost more than £40 at some retailers, costs less than half of that in Aldi and means protecting yourself from the elements is easy.
It comes equipped with eight pegs and two ropes for securing it in place and can fit two adults inside.
Aldi has solved some casual summer gripes without needing to tight the purse strings.
