## Biography

Kariná Alexandria Maginot (Born September 6, 1993), started her life in Middle Park East, Liberty City. Raised amongst the most influential names in Liberty City society, Kariná’s life was already mapped out for her from a young age. She attended a private boarding school from the age of 12, until she was 18; which she ran away from 132 times. From a young age, Kariná constantly rejected the pressure from her parents, even going as far as to celebrate her 16th Birthday by taking one of her father’s golf clubs to her mother’s 1959 Enus Stafford.

At just 19, a bright eyed Kariná headed to Los Santos, cut off from her parents, she turned to reality TV to make a living. Within her first month of being in Vinewood, Kariná hosted the hit reality TV-series Fame Or Shame, alongside actress Pamela Drake. She continued her reality stint with many appearances in CNT’s Valley Of The Dolls, centred around the Webster-West clan. After a dramatic transformation, dropping 100lbs, Kariná went on to produce & host health and fitness docu-series, Payback Body With Kariná for iFruit TV; this being her second TV deal with iFruit, her first being chat-show Kocktails With Kariná.

Kariná reached out to her parents on her 21st birthday, they have repaired their relationship since and remain very close, rumour has it that Kariná only ever called to gain access to her trust fund.

In 2022, Kariná left reality TV to further her career, after a major rebrand, Kariná became the new owner of production giant, Canyon Entertainment. She also became engaged to French, Vinewood legend Claude Maginot. Kariná legally changed her name following the engagement as apart of her rebrand and the pair are set to tie-the-knot this summer.

## Religion

Maginot was raised in a christian household and attended church weekly as a child. She reads a daily devotional to her team. During her adolescence, Kariná studied several different religions and is said to be fascinated by the beliefs of other cultures.

## Business

In 2022 Kariná purchased media and production company, Canyon Entertainment. The previous owner was forced to sell the company after the Vinewood #AndAllSome movement saw him indefinitely blacklisted from Vinewood.

After her takeover, Kariná vowed to change the culture not only internally but throughout Vinewood itself. Kariná said in an official statement: “We are hoping that under new ownership, we can transition into a new era, aligning ourselves with the 21st century. In addition to this, we are looking forward to creating a new culture, not only at Canyon, but throughout the entire film industry”. Kariná has also filed legal documents to secure the brand name Canyon Enterprises after launching her new streaming service, Canyon Plus.

News of the takeover was met with mixed reviews. Some were excited for a modern revamp of the company, however some were unsure of Kariná’s ability. She’s been working hard to prove herself and so far is doing well, her greatest achievement being the hard-hitting documentary ‘Dirty Solomon’. The 2 hour feature was applauded after it discussed hard-hitting stories of sexual misconduct throughout Vinewood, especially concerning Director Solomon Richards.

In addition to her new media career, Kariná is rumoured to earn close to six figures for a single Snapmatic post. Since her takeover of Canyon Entertainment, alongside property investments, shares in several companies and her Snapmatic career, Maginot is now rumoured to be worth around $150 Million; however, Kariná never discusses money herself.

## Public Image

Maginot has received a lot of criticism focused on her body since her rise to fame. The media has over analysed her appearance for many years, which ultimately led to Kariná’s dramatic transformation. “I didn’t even realise there was anything wrong with my body until I went on TV! Then suddenly I found myself obsessively scrolling Bleeter, listening to all these people call me a ‘BEAST’! Then the trashy magazines like Prattle started saying it too and it became almost unbearable”.

Over recent years, Kariná has received a lot of questions surrounding her face, some claiming she looks almost “unrecognisable”. During an 2019 Vain magazine interview, Kariná openly admitted to undergoing one nose job, performed by Rockford Hills surgeon, Dr Sylas Omran at Pivoine.

Since her career debut in 2012, Kariná’s style has elevated from trashy socialite to professional business woman, from latex Perseus dresses to elegant Didier Sachs power suits.

## Legal Issues

In 2013, Kariná was arrested for driving under the influence. In July 2014, she reported to jail to serve time for violation of probation. She faced a sentence of up to 30 days and enrolment in an alcohol treatment program at Parsons Rehabilitation Centre. She was released less than three hours later due to overcrowding.

## Personality

Kariná prides herself on being a strong person, her many bouts with the media has given her a thick skin, which isn’t easy to penetrate. She tries her best to remain impartial and always tries to find the silver lining during difficult situations. Now older and engaged, the star devotes herself to being a good person who wears her heart on her sleeve, her ability to relate to and understand almost anybody’s story has helped her career over the years.

Maginot always attempts to remain fair, but has been known to be led astray by outside influences, some of her most public fights taking place over social media.
