She subsequently moved from the last of these to Los Angeles in summer 1999 and subsequently became a US citizen.

In May 2005, she was photographed topless by Las Vegas mayor Oscar Goodman in the suite of the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, which appeared in Playboy Cyber Club. Goodman's pictorial annoyed the then-Nevada Republican Party vice chair Richard Ziser, who demanded his resignation. In December 2010, Voronina and Brazilian model Sasckya Porto featured in a Tron: Legacy inspired photoshoot for Playboy. Photographed by Jared Ryder and filmed in Miami, Game On featured the pair nude and painted blue and orange. She also modelled for Maxim, Ocean, Shape, Knockout, and the Australian edition of People. Voronina appeared in two episodes of the first season of HBO's Entourage in 2004. She has stated that she was fired from the show for standing up to sexual harassment from the cast. In 2007, Voronina appeared as Fallopia in several episodes of the Adult Swim show Saul of the Mole Men. That year, she played a bailiff on DirecTV's Supreme Court of Comedy, a show in which comedians judged real-life disputes. By November 2009, she had appeared on the TV series Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Chelsea Lately, Howard Stern on Demand, Mad TV, and Punk'd and in the films Reno 911!: Miami, Epic Movie, and Balls of Fury, and had filmed for Svetlana. She also acted in the indie film Scramble and in Killing Hasselhoff. Voronina spent 2008 on a PR tour as that year's St. Pauli Girl Beer spokesmodel. As part of the campaign, she rang the bell at the New York Stock Exchange. By November 2009, she had advertised Michelob Ultra, SKYY vodka, and Miller Lite. In November 2009, it was announced that she had been booked for a Mötley Crüe video. She then appeared in the music video for the 2014 Fozzy track "Do You Want to Start a War". She began performing stand-up comedy in early 2015 and subsequently published the comedy album From Russia With Laughs. By 2017, she was performing stand-up comedy several times a month in Los Angeles.

Since 2015, she has regularly been named as a plaintiff in class action lawsuits alleging the misappropriation of her image. These include a strip club in Long Island in New York in October 2015; a strip club in Tampa in Florida in November 2016; a strip club in San Antonio in Texas in April 2017; three strip clubs in northeast Ohio in September 2018; a nightclub in Wichita Falls in Texas in February 2019; a nightclub in Springfield in Massachusetts in July 2019; a gentlemen's club in Colonie in New York in January 2020; a strip club in Houston in February 2021; various clubs in Florida in October 2021; two clubs in Philadelphia in October 2022; a swinger's club in Portland in Oregon in August 2023; and another strip club in San Antonio in November 2024.
