		The raven-haired Fedorova was found to have a tangled love life, mysterious links to Russian President Vladimir Putin, a seemingly endless supply of cash and diamond jewelry and an attitude that tested even the most seasoned officials of the Miss Universe Organization.
		Whenever Fedorova traveled from Moscow, she was either accompanied by Golubov or he sent what he called "family members" to escort her.
