The 21-year-old decided to dabble in politics and launched her campaign in style.

The beauty stripped to a bikini in a racy video calling for people to vote for her in the election in the city of Daugavpils, in south-eastern Latvia.

She is standing for a seat on the state duma for the "For Latvia from the Heart" conservative political party and faces a tough fight as she is competing with three former mayors.

Ms Lonska's bizarre political video, presumably designed to increase her public profile, begins with her sitting on a clifftop in tiny denim shorts and a bikini top.

The promotional film also shows her on a beach wearing only a revealing yellow and orange bikini.

It then shows her out and about around town and dancing with a group of girls in front of a local memorial.

The video features a song with the lyrics: "Sveta is for the city with all her heart, she helps others, she goes to work with all the seriousness, and would say ‘yes’ to anyone."

In the film, Ms Lonska explains why she is the right woman for office, saying: "I might be a simple girl, but you should know that I am not stupid."

The video also includes the line: "Go vote, I’m telling you."

Ms Lonska says that one of her main aims is to make the state duma more accountable to the needs of local residents.

In her spare time, Ms Lonska is a Zumba coach who founded her own dance organisation, Buena Vida.

Her film is going viral on social media and video-sharing websites, although possibly not for the reason she intended.
