 A Kazakh volleyball player is facing a tough time from her team-mates because her mesmerising good looks are distracting fans from the game. Sabina Altynbekova was just another 18-year-old girl before she turned up in the Taiwanese capital Taipei to compete for Kazakhstan in the Asian Under-19 Championships. Now local media that would normally only write a couple of lines about the competition are devoting 10 page picture features about her and artists are turning out anime fantasies about her. But her sudden move to centre stage has left members of her own team slightly miffed, and now media in her homeland have slammed the obsession with her. 'Fans just stare at her and they are not following the championship any more,' reported Vesti, a respected Kazakh daily paper.  Even her coach on Kazakhstan's Under-19 national team has complained about it. Nurlan Sadikov told Tengrin News: 'It is impossible to work like this. 'The crowd behaves like there is only one player at the championship.'  Born in the athletes’ family, Sabina is not just good looking but also knows how to play the game; volleyball. Sabina Altynbekova’s father was a skier while her mother was a track and field competitor, reports her website. While her good looks are adorable and may help her more than handful of modelling assignments, she seems focused on volleyball and keeps it in the top half of her priority list. |

Sabina Altynbekova is a volleyball player for Kazakhstan in the Asian Under-19 Championships who critics say is too hot to play. Sabina, a 17-year-old who just wants to focus on her sports career, is being bombarded with accusations that she is too distracting to fans, the media, and even other players.  After she appeared in the nine-day championship in the Taiwanese capital of Taipei, the teenager caused a stir among many who admired her for her good looks and six-foot-tall frame. One local paper even printed a 10-page spread to showcase photos of Altynbekova, according to The Independent. Since Sabina Altynbekova’s appearance in the championship, a new Facebook page devoted to Sabina has gained over 200,000 likes and a Twitter account has over 29,000 followers. The accounts are reportedly not officially affiliated or approved of by Altynbekova. YouTube videos edited to show only Sabina playing on the court have earned over one million views. Sabina Alytnbekova has even inspired an anime-style cartoon and photo collages put together by her entranced fans. Sabina was very surprised at how people were showering her with attention. “Honestly, I myself was very surprised,” Altynbekova said in an interview with Vesti. “I am a simple, ordinary girl from Kazakhstan… I was struck by the popularity.”  However, now that new social networking accounts have been opened up in her name without her consent and fans have not settled down, Altynbekova wants the attention to stop so she can focus on sports and live life normally without unwanted and excessive attention. “I was flattered at first but it’s all getting a little bit much. I want to concentrate on playing volleyball and to be famous for that, not anything else,” Sabina Altynbekova told reporters.  |
