Biography

[edit]

Nadya Vasina was born in Kiev, Ukraine, to a family involved in arts and sports.

Nadya is known for her flexibility. She has appeared on multiple media platforms, and has gained particular notoriety for being able to fold her body completely in half.

Vasina has garnered attraction for various shows and performances which carry themes of love, lust or greed. Her most famous show; "Rose" which involves Nadya in a red short dress finding a rose from a previous lover, Vasina proceeds to dance and perform to the rose, placing it between her toes and placing them in her mouth. In her show "Money" Vasina starts as a banker in a black suit and shoes, over the course of the performance Vasina realises she is surrounded by money and dances around, on top of, and with the money. Eventually Nadya transforms into a golden plated goddess of money, seduced by the money itself. By the end of the performance, Nadya has reverted to her normal self, pulling a note of money from her pocket, hinting at the ordeal having really taken place. Vasina often interprets her feet and legs into her performances.
