The models, porn stars and clowns... now in politics

A 24-year-old former model has bagged one of Ukraine's top political jobs - and people aren't happy.

Anastasia Deyeva has been appointed deputy interior minister which means she'll be looking after policing and security.

Some say she's not qualified but others say it's just sexism because she's young and beautiful.

Meanwhile, nude photos of Deyeva have been leaked online.

She's not the first person to go into politics from a background you wouldn't expect.

Italian ex-porn actress, Ilona Staller

She's better known as Cicciolina (which means "cuddles") and is a former porn actress who served as a minister in the Italian parliament between 1987 and 1991.

She didn't give up her day job during that time and continued to make porn films.

It's reported that she offered to have sex with Iraqi leader, Saddam Hussein, in return for peace in the region.

The Czech with tattoos, Vladimir Franz

In politics they say image is everything but having 90% of his body tattooed didn't stop Czech poet, Vladimir Franz.

He came third in the race to become president of the Czech Republic back in 2013.

With no political background he ran on the premise that he wasn't "infected with the 'newspeak' that people are so fed up with these days".

Iceland's extrovert mayor, Jon Gnarr

Here he is in drag for Gay Pride.

Jon Gnarr founded the Best Party in 2009 and created a campaign video that went viral.

He was an actor and comedian before he became mayor - and has been a champion for people with dyslexia and ADHD.

He promised free towels in all swimming pools and a polar bear for Rekjavic Zoo.

He would have got our vote.

Brazil's clown candidate, Tiririca

Some people might say many politicians are clowns, but this one actually was.

Francisco Everardo Oliveira Silva, better known by his clown name Tiririca (which means grumpy), received more than 1.3 million votes in Sao Paulo state in Brazil's presidential and congressional elections.

Public prosecutors tried to stop him running for the job by claiming he couldn't read or write. It wasn't true.

His slogan was: "It can't get any worse."

America's apprentice

You might have heard of this guy.

He used to be on a TV show called The Apprentice before getting one of the world's top jobs.
