'Russia's version of Paris Hilton' announces presidential bid

However, a significant minority of voters accuse the Kremlin chief of overseeing a corrupt system that has isolated Russia from the outside world, and many of them have taken part in mass protests organized by Putin critic Alexei Navalny.

I've read a few articles calling her the "it girl" or like Paris Hilton. She doesn't seem that much like Hilton to me. She seems a bit more controlled, not sure if she has some wild side.
