Nicoletta Romanoff (born Nicoletta Consolo,[1] May 14, 1979) is an Italian television and film actress.
Acting career
Romanoff made her cinematic debut in the 2003 Italian film Remember Me, My Love, directed by Gabriele Muccino. She played the role of Valentina, a teenage girl aggressively pursuing dreams of show business fame. As a film critic described her performance, "Ms. Romanoff, who more or less steals the movie, is completely believable as an Italian post-Britney material girl who is all drive and no modesty."[2] Another critic described Valentina's pivotal role in sustaining the film's tone: "There are occasional flashes of the sardonic tone which promised so much at the start - mostly when the focus is on Valentina's more extreme acts of narcissism. Then Muccino seems to forget how appalling she is and starts applauding these egocentricities as signs of her unquenchable spirit." (translated)[3]
Romanoff has also played lead roles in the 2007 comedy film Cardiofitness and the 2010 film Dalla vita in poi.
Personal
Romanoff is the daughter of an Italian politician, Giuseppe Consolo. Her maternal grandfather is Nicholas Romanov, Prince of Russia, which makes her a great-great-great-great granddaughter of Emperor Nicholas I of Russia. Romanoff married in 1999 and had two children before the marriage ended.[4] She then began a long-term relationship with Italian actor Giorgio Pasotti.[5]
In 2016, she collaborated with Damiani (jewelry company) and created The Romanov Collection. This jewelry collection is inspired by treasures of the Tsar dynasty.[6]
