The spy who tagged me: Russian femme fatale Anna Chapman proposes to Edward Snowden on Twitter
- The former Russian lady spy who was kicked out of the U.S. in 2010 gave fellow informant, NSA leaker Snowden, a social media shout out Wednesday
- Chapman bears a slight resemblance to Snowden ex Lindsay Mills
Former Russian spy Anna Chapman has proposed marriage to NSA leaker on the lam Edward Snowden via Twitter.
The flame-haired femme fatale was short and sweet: ‘Snowden, will you marry me?!’
The tweet came just as the world began to wonder if Edward Snowden was still in Chapman’s country of Russia—where he’s been holed up in a Moscow airport for days—or if he’d managed to sneak aboard the flight of Bolivian President Evo Morales headed for South America.

Perfectly matched: Russian spy turned fashionista Anna Chapman has asked NSA leaker Ed Snowden to marry her, via a tweet Wednesday
Latin America, specifically Venezuala, is thought to be Snowden’s last hope for asylum after withdrawing his petition to Russia Tuesday.
Since her own espionage controversy—along with nine others accused of spying in 2010—Chapman has led a busy life.
Snowden, will you marry me?!
— Anna (@ChapmanAnna) July 3, 2013
She was immediately catapulted into the limelight as her pictures were splashed around the world.
The daughter of a senior KGB agent has become a celebrity in Russia since she returned in the summer of 2010.
Ladies man: 'I like my girlish figure that attracts girls,' a younger Snowden once wrote. That figure attracted a pole-dancing lady friend in Hawaii named Lindsay Mills
She has previously appeared on the catwalk at Russian Fashion Week in Moscow clothed in a skin-tight leather ensemble.
She has also modeled, edited a magazine, given lectures and now runs a foundation.

Last year she appeared on the catwalk in the Mediterranean city of Antalya, a top Turkish vacation destination.
The controversial temptress has made many tongues wag since her name was first splashed across the front page of magazines and websites worldwide.
But Snowden, at least in his pre-international controversy days, claims to have elicited some leering himself.
His type? Lindsay Mills was Edward Snowden's girlfriend before he fled U.S. authorities. She bears some resemblance to Anna Chapman
Similar: Chapman looked not unlike Snowden's heartbroken ex Lindsay Mills on a Moscow red carpet recently. Now she may be after him herself
'I like my girlish figure that attracts girls,' he wrote as an 18-year-old.
That figure later won Snowden an attractive pole-dancing lady friend in Hawaii, Lindsay Mills.
And though Mills may not be a globetrotting diplomat’s daughter, if you look at her in just the right light she does resemble Chapman.
Hopefully for Anna, that means she’s Snowden’s type.
