MOURNING: Artem Perchenok, here with ex-girlfriend Ruslana Korshunova (seated), grieves yesterday outside his Queens home yesterday... above with Mark Kaminsky, the beau she was dating when she leaped to her death from her ninth-floor apartment. LOST LOVE:Ruslana Korshunova, above in a snapshot by her ex-boyfriend and... GLAMOUR & TORMENT HEALTH, WORK WOES OF SUICIDE MODEL Last updated: 7:56 am June 30, 2008 In the days before her death, a suicidal supermodel felt confused about the direction of her life and struggled with a mysterious stomach ailment, friends said yesterday. In addition, Kazakh catwalker Ruslana Korshunova had lost a lot of weight in the last month and had trouble balancing her personal life and her demanding work schedule, her bewildered ex-boyfriend said yesterday. "I think she just gave up," said Artem Perchenok, 24, who was with Korshunova on the last night of her short life. The 5-foot-8 head-turner, who liked camping and fishing, kept her problems "bottled up," he said. "When a job would go bad, she'd take it out on herself." But her latest beau, Mark Kaminsky, 32, of Staten Island - who said he talked with Ruslana hours before her suicide plunge - insisted the beauty was "liking what she did." "She was a love for me," he said, noting the first time he saw her he gushed: "I'm in shock over your beauty." To outsiders, it appeared the one-time Russian Vogue cover girl was living a charmed life. She had a full schedule of high-profile modeling gigs in New York and had recently returned from Paris. "She loved life," one Russian friend told The Post, while another, Maxim Ilin, said she "was the most cheerful and positive person I knew." Perchenok speculated, "She was doing great [in her career]. Maybe she was overworked. "It [her career] was taking off. She was busy, busy. When you're 20 years old and you travel the world, how can you complain? But . . . your family's back home and people are telling you what to do and how much to eat and how to walk." The size-4 stunner appeared to have dropped some serious weight from her already thin frame and was complaining about a stomachache in the four or five days before her death.

The Ugly Side of the Fashion Industry: Model Ruslana Korshunova's Suicide Posted by Heather Muse at 10:20 AM, June 30, 2008 Suicide is not something to make light of. (It is, however, worthy of an eye-roll when you make a half-hearted attempt to fake your own death to avoid jail. I'm looking at you Samuel Israel III and your "suicide is painless" message written on the trunk of your car.) The coverage of the suicide of model Ruslana Korshunova, however, has one minor irritant that needs to be pointed out. Again, it is awful that this 20-year-old woman was in so much emotional pain that she jumped to her death from her Water St. apartment on Saturday. But Korshunova, no matter what the papers say, was not a supermodel. It seems that "supermodel" has become the default term for anyone who struts down the runway and poses for magazine covers. Korshunova may have been a rising star in the fashion industry (she had appeared on the covers of French Elle and Russian Vogue), but she was not in the pantheon of stars that can simply go by their first names: Kate (Moss), Naomi (Campbell), Cindy (Crawford), Linda (Evangelista), etc. Heck, even Agyness Deyn at this point is closer to supermodel status than this random beauty. Beyond that point--which again, is totally minor--today's coverage of Korshunova's death concentrates on the reactions to her suicide from family and friends. Her boyfriend Mark Kaminsky tells the Daily News that Korshunova "was doing good. She was one of the top models. She was happy with this." The News also features excerpts from her blog on its website, where the model ruminates on love and life with observations such as, "boys..why are you so silly?" and "i'm so lost..will i ever find myself?.." The messages were posted on a Russian social networking site, but the news doesn't specify whether they were originally written in English or Russian. (The assumption I'm going on, because of the choice the News made in keeping everything lowercase, is that they were posted in English.) The Post talks to Kaminsky and Korshunova's ex-boyfriend, Artem Perchenok, who tells the paper, "It [her career] was taking off. She was busy, busy. When you're 20 years old and you travel the world, how can you complain? But . . . your family's back home and people are telling you what to do and how much to eat and how to walk." Perchenok also spoke to the Daily News and told the paper he had spent time with Korshunova the night before she died. They hung out at his parents' home in Queens. "I felt she came to say goodbye," he tells the News. The Post also reports that Korshunova had complained of stomach pains in the week before her death and that the size-4 model had "dropped some serious weight." Korshunova left no note.

Suicide Model Said to Be Confused About Life, Lonely Monday, June 30, 2008 NEW YORK

Model's Web rants pined for love BY VERONIKA BELENKAYA and BRIAN HARMON DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITERS Sunday, June 29th 2008, 10:27 AM Love meant everything to her. Supermodel Ruslana Korshunova poured her heart out on the Web in the months leading to her apparent suicide. EARLIER: Russian supermodel with 'fairytale' beauty, age 20, plummets to her death "Life is short, Break the rules, Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly, Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably," the sandy-haired knockout wrote in a poem that concluded: "And never regret anything that made you smile." The Kazakh beauty wrote that love "blinds," "sets souls afire," and "is always the answer" in emotion-soaked passages posted on a social networking site. Korshunova volleyed between Russian and English in her heartfelt prose, but love was a central theme no matter the language. "Do not confuse love and desire," she wrote in Russian in her most recent posting May 30. "Love is the sun, desire - only flash. Desire dazzles, and the sun gives life." The soulful note warns of the perils of sacrifice. "Love does not take away from one in order to give to another," wrote Korshunova, a 20-year-old thousands of miles from her native Kazakhstan. "Love - this is the essence of life. But you will not give your life to another." Korshunova's most telling message came three months ago: "I'm so lost. Will I ever find myself?" She appeared angry in some postings, brokenhearted in others. "I'm a bitch. I'm a witch. I don't care what you say!!!" she wrote March 11. "I know what it is. I know why my other relationships didn't work out, 'cause I'm unpredictable. Why are you afraid of it?" In January, she wrote, "It hurts, as if someone took a part of me, tore it out, mercilessly stomped all over and threw it out. "My dream is to fly. Oh, my rainbow it is too high," she wrote in a March note.

Kazakh model in apparent suicide plunge NEW YORK (Reuters) - A 20-year-old woman identified by local media as Kazakh supermodel Ruslana Korshunova plunged to her death from a Manhattan apartment on Saturday in an apparent suicide. Police said only that the woman was discovered dead in front of an apartment building in downtown Manhattan, near the financial district and the South Street Seaport tourist area. Korshunova had graced the covers of European editions of Elle and Vogue and walked the catwalks for designers including Betsey Johnson and Jill Stuart. Witnesses described seeing her plunge from a ninth-floor balcony in the building on Saturday afternoon. Local media, citing police sources, said there was no sign of a struggle inside her apartment and that Korshunova was believed to have leaped to her death. A friend told The New York Post, however, that Korshunova had just returned from a modelling job in Paris and seemed "on top of the world." "There were no signs," the unidentified friend was quoted as saying. "I don't see one reason why she would do that." Korshunova, a native of Kazakhstan, had been profiled in British Vogue in recent years as a new face to watch, and she was featured in ads by Vera Wang, Marc Jacobs, Christian Dior and DKNY. A spokesman for Korshunova's agency, IMG, which also handles Heidi Klum and Kate Moss, said "We're shocked and our heart goes out to her family," the Daily News reported. RIP
