Milla Jovovich


With all the work she does, she should have a web site and here it is: MillaJ. There is even a snail mail address there to send a letter to, if you know or remember how!

She was born on December 17, 1975, making her a Rabbit, like me and my son in Kyiv, or our spelling, Kiev, Ukraine as Milica Jovović. The big deal here is that she was born in the Soviet Union. You younguns go look that up. She is now a U.S. citizen, naturalized of course, again like me. Ok, I like her and seeing that we have some likenesses, make it seem "need-o" for me. She is 5' 8.5" [1.74 m] tall, which makes her one half inch tall than me. Does she like shorter men?
