Anna Chapman Snowden Proposal: TV Interview Aborted As Spy Flees

Anna Chapman’s Snowden proposal questions led the Russian spy to abruptly end a TV interview. Everything was going well until the NBC reporter brought up the beauty’s Twitter proposal to Edward Snowden, the man who defected to the NSA. When the subject came up, she quickly announced the interview was over and she walked out.

Despite having a TV show (Mysteries of the World) in her homeland and a Maxim cover, Russian beauty Anna Chapman doesn’t like questions about her personal life. Her shroud of secrecy still exists, it seems.

Once a spy in New York, a profession which got Anna Chapman arrested in 2010, it may have been her demands for secrecy that drove her to a possibly romantic entanglement with Edward Snowden. Snowden, in case you didn’t know, is a former CIA and NSA agent who leaked information about the US and British governments, and as such is now considered a wanted fugitive. The former NSA whistleblower said he did so intentionally to start a debate over national security.

The Anna Chapman Snowden proposal, as such, still has no public answer. Realistically, the decision is really between the spy and the government fugitive anyway, and she is right to not feel the need to discuss it publicly. Discretion is also part of what she’s been paid to do, so she is a natural.

Snowden, will you marry me?!

The TV interview that Russian spy Anna Chapman bolted from started out innocent enough, as NBC News reporter Richard Engel asked her, “You lived a very mysterious life. One you still don’t like talking about. And now you’re on television … Does that seem strange to you?”

Anna Chapman answered that she doesn’t mind talking about science, but her personal life is none of anyone else’s business. She also stated that she doesn’t understand why anyone would want to know about another’s private life.

Then Richard Engel eventually asked her about her Twitter proposal to Edward Snowden, a point she immediately had a problem with.

Anna Chapman replied, “OK, the interview is finished. I’m sorry,” and she then walked out.

Apparently Anna Chapman’s Snowden proposal is off limits to the public, and we’ll find out as soon as she wants us to know.
