As 2019 draws to a close, popular men’s magazine Maxim once again presented its annual list of Russia’s sexiest women.
While the full list features a hundred names of singers, models and actresses who caught the magazine’s eye, here’s the five women who made it to the very top.
Fifth Place – Yana Koshkina
Yana Koshkina, a stunning 29-year-old actress and TV host from Russia, ranked fifth this year, as compared to the 21st place she enjoyed a year before.

Third place went to a 34-year old singer named Olga Seryabkina, former member of girl group Serebro (Silver) that won third place in the Eurovision Song Contest 2007.
