Russian popstar Oksana Pochepa admits she was the girl photographed frolicking with Mel Gibson on a beach, and adds that she has fallen for the actor. Pochepa says she is smitten by the actor and hopes their love is �strong and long-lasting�. Just weeks after the snaps were published, the movie legend�s wife Robyn Gibson, 52, filed for divorce.
Smitten Oksana, who first hit the Russian charts aged 13, said yesterday: �This is serious and I hope that our union will be real and strong and long-lasting.
�We are different people, but Mel is a grown man and knows precisely what he wants and me too � I know what I want.�
The singer, who is also a model, claimed to have visited Mel on the set of a movie in Boston last summer. But she added the two were not yet ready to go public with details of their love.

�I would not like to say more right now,� she said. Pochepa spoke out after the reports blamed Mrs Gibson�s divorce suit on �a Russian musician called Oksana�. Some reports had suggested the Russian classical pianist Oksana Kolesnikova as the women behind Gibsons� divorce.
But married Kolesnikova, 31, last night angrily denied being linked to the star. �I have no idea how this mistake has been made. I feel very upset,� she said. �The only explanation is that the names Oksana have been confused. It is a very popular name in Russia,� she added.
