Putin's 'mistress' Alina Kabayeva is Russian Vogue's debut cover girl Mail Online: "Russian Vogue’s new editor-in-chief has sparked controversy by revealing that her first cover star is Prime Minister Vladimir Putin’s alleged mistress.Alina Kabayeva will appear on the front of the January 2011 issue, and Viktoria Davydova has set tongues wagging in the fashion world – and beyond – with her direction. Though the rumours of Mr Putin’s relationship with former Olympic gold medallist have been strenuously denied, Mrs Davydova has cheekily placed the main cover headline, ‘Her Main Victory,’ between Miss Kabayeva’s legs. The 27-year-old, who won a broze medal in the rhythmic gymnastics at the Sydney Games in 2000 and bettered it with gold four years later at Athens, is alleged to have mothered Mr Putin’s lovechild.
In a further fashion controversy, the former editor of Russia's Tatler photographed Miss Kabayeva in a £21,000 gold Balmain dress, which has already featured on many other fashion magazine covers this year. Miss Kabayeva, who also collected 18 world championship and 25 European championship medals before she hung up her hoop, ribbon, clubs and ball for good in 2008, became a Russian national heroine after unexpectedly failing in Australia ten years ago."
