Early life and education
Fedorova was born in Pskov to parents Gennadiy Fedorov, a nuclear physicist, and Elena Fedorova (née Trofimovich), a psychiatric nurse. Her parents divorced when she was three years old, and her father subsequently left the family. She was raised as an only child and was brought up by her mother and maternal grandparents.[1]
After working as a police officer in Pskov, she moved to Saint Petersburg to attend the Saint Petersburg University of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia. While a student, she worked as an investigator for the Pulkovo Transport Police.[2]
Fedorova graduated from university in 2000, and later began post-graduate studies at the same university. She wrote her thesis on "Regulation of Private Detective and Security Activity in the Russian Federation," and also taught civil law to younger students.[3] In 2002, Fedorova successfully defended her doctoral thesis, and subsequently, she obtained her Doctor of Philosophy degree in civil law from the Saint Petersburg University of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia in 2003.[4] After receiving her doctorate, she continued to teach at the Saint Petersburg University of the Ministry of Interior of Russia.[1]
Career
Police career
Fedorova enrolled in the police academy as a teenager, where she played the saxophone in the academy's brass band.[1] After graduating, Fedorova worked as an inspector in Pskov for six months.[5] While a university student in Saint Petersburg, she worked as an investigator for the Pulkovo Transport Police.[2] After finishing her doctorate in 2005, she continued her career as a police officer, being promoted to captain in September 2002 and major in 2005.[6][7]
Modeling and pageantry
In 1999, Fedorova began working professionally as a model, and later became introduced to beauty pageants.[8] That year, she was named Miss Saint Petersburg and Miss Kalokagathia. In 2001, she represented Saint Petersburg at Miss Russia, where she was declared the winner.
As a model, Fedorova has walked runways for designers such as Tony Ward and Yulia Yanina, in addition to participating in fashion weeks in Rome, Milan, and Moscow.[9][10][11][12]

As Miss Russia 2001, Fedorova was selected to represent Russia at Miss Universe 2002, held in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Fedorova won both the swimsuit and evening gown competitions by large margins over the other nine semi-finalists. Upon being crowned Miss Universe 2002, Fedorova was given multiple honors and gifts. Russian designer Helen Yarmak created a doll for her. Fedorova traveled to Canada, France, Greece, Indonesia, Italy, Kenya, Panama, Puerto Rico, and the United States as Miss Universe 2002.[13][14][15][16][17][18]

However, months after Fedorova's crowning, she was rumored to be pregnant, and was later dethroned by the Miss Universe Organization.[29] Fedorova denied the pregnancy rumors and stated that she voluntarily gave up her crown for personal reasons, mainly because she wanted to finish her law degree.[30] She later stated in an interview that she had declined to perform her duties because she was so insulted by her treatment on The Howard Stern Show. She blamed the pageant organizers for not warning her of the sexual questions Howard Stern frequently asks.[31] The Mikimoto Crown was passed on to Panamanian Justine Pasek, the first runner-up, who subsequently became her country's first Miss Universe. As a result, Fedorova was the first Miss Universe to be dethroned.[32]
