Anna Chapman, the Russian spy loved by the media

Eleven alleged Russian spies have been arrested, but only one of them gets all the attention - the nice one. Anna Chapman has become the face of the story. Pictures of her appear on the front pages of all British newspapers today. The phrases "femme fatale", "redhead" and "Bond Girl" are often trotted in the English speaking people around the world.

She is also much in line ogled. "They can spy on me anytime," is one of the milder comments on a YouTube video of her.

The Huffington Post gathers some of the many "bold pictures" that Chapman aware of herself on her Facebook page. It invites readers to rate them on a scale of one to 10, with one "nyet" and 10 "Red Hot".

The New York Daily Post admires her "Secret Victoria's body, while his rival New York Daily News describes pictures of her as" sexy profile pictures that can be easily headshots in a casting call for the next Bond girl to be found.

Here in the United Kingdom, Chapman calls the imagination of the Daily Mail reporters run wild.

Miss Chapman is emerging as the femme fatale [sic] of the James Bond-style plot which saw 'sleepers' embedded in American cities, some more than a decade ago.

"And she looks every inch the part, using her charm, beauty and high-society connections to easily move through the circles of power and other people use to find out state secrets."

It is up to the New York Times to hose down all the excitement. "The only thing missing in more than a decade of operation were the real secrets to Moscow for sending home," it notes.

Referring to the officials, it adds: "None of the 11 people accused in the case face charges of espionage, because in all those years they were never caught sending classified information back to Moscow."

Simon Jenkins in The Guardian is one of the few newspaper columnists do not get carried away. He writes: "The FBI and the CIA have bust an operation that cost should the Russians have millions and did nothing that could not be inferred from the New York Times, Washington Post and the political blogs. Why do not the spies leave it? I know sure they were paying taxes. It is ridiculous that they are no threat to the American people as a result. "

The Daily Beast tracks of a man who was interviewed Chapman for a job. Scott Beauchamp suggests that the reality behind the facade Chapman's was more than the daily media would suggest.

It is disappointing that the interview was "pretty boring," he says.

"There were no bags of money exchanged. She did not once a radio channel to use, and I never asked her if she was a Bond girl."

When Beauchamp told his wife that he had interviewed Chapman, her first reaction was: "You did not tell me that she was hot!"
