Lilija Slukova walked out of the airport in the the muggy summer afternoon heat. She stretched her arms overhead, tired from the long flight from Moscow, but also very happy. She had made it: America!

It was a big day for the little 18-year-old beauty, her first time out of her home district in Russia, her first time alone and away from her family, the first day of her exciting new life abroad.

All her life Lilija had been told that she was beautiful, and indeed she was: thin and petite, with smooth white skin, long natural blonde hair, big blue eyes and budding breasts. She looked very young and innocent (and was!). Today she wore very tight jeans shorts, a sleeveless white blouse, and her blonde hair in a ponytail.

Her personality was friendly and a bit shy, but she had traveled so far to support her poor family in their rural village home in Russia, hoping to become a model, or even an actress when her English improved. The men at the agencies back home were unprofessional, but here she thought she wouldn't be rejected for being too small, too white.

No, the talent scout who had contacted her via email said she was perfect, just what they are looking for, so her family had spent their savings to provide the flight ticket, and now she's arrived with almost no money, big eyes and even bigger expectations. It was all too good to be true! She smiled to herself. Tomorrow she would start working once she signed a couple of contracts with her new agent DeShawn White of the White Girls Agency. 'What a funny name,' she thought. She never met anyone named 'DeShawn' in Russia, she wondered if it was somehow ethnic?
