JULY 4, 2013

Chapman, 31, was outed as a Russian spy posing as a real estate agent in New York City in 2010. Now, she’s a model and celebrity with the hots for the NSA leaker.

SHE LOVES spying so much, she wants to marry it!

Knockout Russian secret agent Anna Chapman has the hots for Edward Snowden, the man behind the leaks of top-secret National Security Agency documents.

“Snowden, will you marry me?” Chapman tweeted Wednesday from Russia, with love.

“@nsa will you look after our children?” she later tweeted to an account not actually representing the agency.

Anna Chapman’s Twitter page. Snowden has been stuck in Moscow’s Sheremetyevo Airport since June 23.

The red-haired, 31-year-old femme fatale was outed in 2010 as a spy who was posing as a real estate agent in New York City. She was deported to Russia with nine others in a prisoner swap.

Chapman has gone on to become a national celebrity and model in her homeland. She has even hosted her own television show, “Secrets of the World.”

Snowden’s life since entering the public eye has been much less glamorous.

The 30-year-old has been stuck in limbo in Moscow’s Sheremetyevo Airport since June 23. His passport has been revoked, and his 21 applications to different countries seeking asylum have been met with at least a dozen rejections.

Snowden’s leaks, which he says will continue, have revealed the NSA gathers call data on essentially all phone calls made in the U.S. and has access to the servers of nine major Internet companies.

Subsequent bombshells about American espionage efforts abroad have strained diplomatic ties with China and the European Union.

Snowden’s love life was thrown for a loop beginning in May when he ditched his bombshell girlfriend, Lindsay Mills, and left behind his former life to begin his leaks.

Edward Snowden has received at least a dozen rejections for asylum since exposing NSA surveillance activities. 

He obtained the trove of confidential documents through his job as a defense contractor at an outpost of Booz Allen Hamilton in Hawaii.

Already, his tradecraft has proven far superior to Chapman’s. Snowden’s career as a spy included work as “an infrastructure analyst,” which The New York Times reported is an elite hacker charged with finding new ways to infiltrate Internet and telephone traffic.

The job gave him broad access to compromised computers by the NSA the world over, as well as its highly classified operations.

By comparison, Chapman’s spy duties seemed to be of minimal importance. Court papers revealed she was never in a position to gather information useful to the Kremlin.
