Manohara Odelia Pinot (lahir di Jakarta, 28 Februari 1992; umur 17 tahun) adalah seorang model Indonesia. Manohara memiliki darah campuran Amerika Serikat dan Bugis, Indonesia serta berkewarganegaraan ganda, Amerika Serikat dan Indonesia.
Karier
Lahir dari orang tua berkebangsaan Amerika Serikat, George Man dan keturunan bangsawan Bugis, Daisy Fajarina. Setelah kedua orangtuanya bercerai, sang ibu menikah dengan Reiner Pinot Noack yang berkebangsaan Perancis. Manohara adalah seorang model. Di usianya yang masih muda, tapi ia berhasil menjadi salah satu 100 Pesona Indonesia menurut Majalah Harper’s Bazaar.
Kehidupan pribadi
Nama Manohara mencuat di berbagai media massa pada pertengahan bulan April 2009. Manohara dikabarkan diculik oleh Pangeran Malaysia, Tengku Fakhry. Peristiwa ini bermula dari pertemuan Manohara dengan Tengku pada bulan Desember 2006 saat jamuan makan malam oleh Wakil Perdana Menteri Malaysia. Singkat kata, sang pangeran jatuh hari dan berniat menjalin hubungan serius dengan Manohara yang saat berusia 15 tahun. Melihat latarbelakang keluarga dan kekayaan Tengku, Daisy Fajarina, sang ibu, mengizinkan mereka berpacaran.
Manohara dikabarkan mengalami perlakuan yang tidak menyenangkan dari Pangeran malaysia tersebut, maka ia pun kabur kembali ke Jakarta melalui Singapura. Mengetahui Mano pergi, Tengku bermaksud menjemput Manohara. Ia bahkan membelikan mobil sebagai hadiah ulang tahun Manohara pada bulan Februari 2009. Tak hanya itu, ia pun mengajak Manohara serta keluarganya untuk umroh bersama.
Saat akan kembali ke tanah air, setelah selesai umroh pada 9 Maret 2009, kabarnya sang ibunda dan saudara tirinya, Dewi Sari Asih, ditinggalkan begitu saja di bandara.
Tak tinggal diam, sang ibu bersama anaknya, Dewi berusaha meminta bantuan Pemerintah Indonesia dan Komnas HAM. Karena Daisy sempat mengalami pencekalan ketika akan mengunjungi putrinya di Malaysia.
Kasus Manohara mendapatkan perhatian yang lebih tinggi ketika Perdana Menteri Malaysia Najib Tun Razak mengelak pertanyaan mengenai tuduhan penculikan Manohara oleh seorang Pangeran Malaysia saat ia bertemu Presiden Indonesia Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono di Jakarta pada 23 April 2009. Ibu Manohara menggelar konferensi pers di Komisi Nasional Anti Kekerasan Terhadap Perempuan di Jakarta. Ia mengeluhkan pencekalan otoritas Malaysia yang mencegahnya memasuki Malaysia untuk menjenguk keadaan putrinya. Tindakan menutupi fakta seperti ini mirip dengan kasus pembunuhan Altantuya Shariibuu, model Mongolia yang dibunuh di Malaysia. Pemerintah Indonesia meminta penjelasan dari Pemerintah Malaysia atas alasan apa seorang perempuan Indonesia tidak diizinkan menemui anaknya yang menurutnya telah dianiaya oleh suaminya yang anggota keluarga kerajaan di Malaysia.
Manohara pernah menjalin hubungan dengan beberapa lelaki, sebut saja Ardi Bakrie, salah satu komisaris utama TVOne dan Ryan Haryanto, pembalap muda asal Singapura dan terakhir pada saat ini sedang menjalin asmara dengan Amiel Mohede, pengusaha muda asal Indonesia.
Pada Minggu 31 Mei 2009, Manohara berhasil kabur dari kawalan pihak Kerajaan Kelantan di Singapura dan pulang kembali ke Indonesia bersama ibunya. Pada saat itu Manohara dan keluarga Kerajaan Kelantan berada di Singapura untuk menjenguk Sultan Kelantan yang tengah berobat di Singapura. Pada saat itu Daisy Fajarina juga tengah berada di Singapura untuk bertemu Manohara. Manohara menelepon ibunya dan memberi tahu hotel tempat ia menginap. Manohara berusaha menyelinap keluar dari hotel, tetapi saat berada di lift di lantai 3 ia dicegat pengawal Kesultanan Kelantan yang berusaha memaksanya kembali ke kamar. Dalam keadaan terdesak Manohara menekan tombol darurat di dalam lift untuk menarik perhatian sekuriti hotel dan aparat keamanan setempat. Karena menyadari adanya kamera CCTV di lift dan koridor hotel, bodyguard Kelantan menahan diri untuk tidak menggunakan kekerasan terhadap Manohara. Dikabarkan Manohara telah menelepon Kedutaan Besar Indonesia di Singapura untuk meminta perlindungan, akan tetapi tidak dikabulkan dengan alasan hari itu hari minggu dan tidak ada orang yang bertugas, meskipun Manohara menegaskan bahwa ini adalah keadaan darurat. Karena ayahnya adalah warga negara Amerika Serikat, Manohara kemudian mencoba menelepon Kedutaan Besar Amerika Serikat di Singapura yang kemudian menjawab permohonan pertolongan Manohara dengan mengirimkan polisi Singapura dan agen Amerika. Daisy tiba di hotel dan menunggu Manohara di lobi hotel karena ia tidak tahu di mana kamar Manohara. Atas petunjuk seorang perempuan warga negara Indonesia yang mengetahui adanya keributan di lantai 3, Daisy memperoleh petunjuk di mana keberadaan Manohara. Daisy akhirnya berhasil bertemu putrinya. Berkat perlindungan diplomatik dari aparat Singapura dan Kedutaan AS, Manohara bersama ibunya berhasil kembali ke Indonesia. Melalui konferensi pers Manohara menyatakan bahwa segala tuduhan penculikan dan penganiayaan yang dilayangkan ibunya kepada Pangeran Kelantan adalah fakta, Manohara menyatakan tidak mau kembali ke Kelantan dan menyatakan niatnya untuk bercerai dari Tengku Fakhry.

Park Shin-Hye (Korean: 박신혜, born February 18, 1990) is a South Korean actress and model.
Shin-Hye is currently attending Seoul Young-Pa Girls’ High school. She debuted first in the 2003 Lee Seung-Hwan music video “Ggot - Flower.” In 2003 she received a Youth Award from the SBS Acting Awards.
Acting career
Park’s fame came when she played the younger version of the character Han Jung Suh in the popular Korean drama, Stairway to Heaven. She also starred in a drama series called Tree of Heaven which aired on SBS, starring her former co-star in Stairway to Heaven, Lee Wan. The show had decent ratings, and the reviews and criticism were mixed, but mostly positive. Many critics keyed on in her portrayal of the character Hana’s pain of loving her step brother Yoon-Suh Lee Wan as brilliantly done. It should also be noted that due to the age difference between her and Wan, romantic scenes such as kissing on the lips could not occur, as seen in the scenes in the show, where had it been an older actress, such scenes may have occurred. Tree of Heaven started with borderline mediocre ratings, as do many new Korean dramas do, but went on to finish very respectably, and gained a fan base in Korea, which further helped Park’s credibility and young career in acting. Since then, Park Shin-Hye has done many commercials (CF) and modeled for a number of Asian companies.
Through her roles and their requirements, Shin-Hye has displayed a instinctive talent for dancing and martial arts. She has also released a digital single, “Prayer”, a song she used to sing in the drama Tree of Heaven, however, the track was not released in the Official OST.
Current activities
Park recently made her big screen debut in the movie Hometown of Legends, a summer horror flick where she had 2 roles; One is of the main character, the other is of the ghost of the main character’s sister, who haunts the other sister after her death. Park was extremely happy to star in this movie, for she had always wanted to star in a period setting drama or movie.
Park Shin-Hye starred as one of the four main characters in Goong S, a spin off (not the sequel) to the wildly successful Goong. The series did not match the success of its original, and received borderline ratings. However, the drama was the most re-watched and replayed series in the first half of 2007, gaining fame after the first run.

Kim Yoo-jin (born March 3, 1981), professionally known in English as Eugene, is a South Korean singer and actress, known mostly for her musical career as part of the hit K-pop group S.E.S..
Early life
Kim was born in Seoul, South Korea, but spent her childhood in Guam moving there after finishing elementary school. She returned to Korea with her mom and younger sister sometime in high school, after her parents divorced, and eventually graduated from Korea Kent Foreign School. She is fluent in her native language, Korean and can hold conversations in English, and is a Christian.
Career start
Main article: S.E.S. (group)
By way of an audition tape, Eugene was able to be part of a music group for SM Entertainment in South Korea, even though she was still in Guam. Debuting in 1997, S.E.S. became one of the biggest Korean groups of all time, having the record for biggest selling album by a female group in Korea. While in S.E.S., Eugene became known for her beauty and was part of the reason why S.E.S. had many advertising contracts. In fact, for certain print campaigns (like for Korean cosmetics company Etude), Eugene had the leading role, being the focus of the advertisements. Though vocally weaker than Bada and Shoo, Eugene became the face of SES in advertising.
Solo career
After the split of S.E.S. in 2002, Kim has appeared in four Korean dramas: Loving You, Save The Last Dance, Wonderful Life, and I Really, Really Like You. She has also appeared in commercials and advertisements, most notably for Korean cosmetics company Cathy Cat. In addition, she has released two solo albums. My True Style, her first album, has sold nearly 65,000 records and had one hit ballad, The Best. Her second album 810303 sold a disappointing 19,000 copies. Although sales were low, Eugene still had a very successful single with Windy, mostly due to her new “sexy” image (compared to her previous girl next door image). This song was performed on all the music video programs in Korea for many months, in addition to her second single. Promotions were stopped near the end of the year. Eugene did some promotional work in the Philippines in mid-2006.[citation needed]
As of 2007, she is one of the co-hosts of KBS’s Happy Together: Friends, taking over from Lee Hyori. Also, she has become part of the musical version of the film Innocent Steps.
She also debuted as a film actress in Unstoppable Marriage (released on May 10, 2007).
In March 2008, it was announced that she would take the lead role in the drama Three Daddies and One Mommy, to be aired starting in April.
