Chrystal Callahan (transliterated as Кристалл Каллахан), is a Toronto-born Canadian television personality and fashion model who began hosting Highlights of the Week with Chrystal Callahan in June, 2009. It was a subtitled English-language television show in Russia’s North Caucasus Republic of Chechnya.

In July 2010, Callahan will launch a new program called "Chechnya Through The Eyes of Chrystal Callahan". It is focused on travel / tourist destinations in the Chechen Republic, Islam and Chechen Culture.

Callahan has been dubbed the "Maverick Model". She has embarked on a singing career under the stage name of KRISTALL and has become a popstar in the North Caucasus. She performs songs in the Russian and Chechen language.[1] KRISTALL studies and performs traditional Chechen dance.

Criticism and Praise

Callahan has had some criticism for working in Chechnya. Critics see her as a supporter of pro-Russian Chechen president Ramzan Kadyrov and accuse her of being a propaganda tool for the Chechen government. Callahan has been compared to Walter Duranty, the British journalist who won a Pulitzer Prize in 1932 for a set of stories written in 1931 on the Soviet Union.[1] [2] [2] CNN featured Callahan in the summer of 2010 and credited her as being a symbol of stability and peace after years of conflict in the unstable region.[1]
