Maria Guzenina-Richardson (born January 12, 1969 in Helsinki, Finland) is a Finnish politician, television presenter and former MTV VJ.

After the MTV years

Her later career has involved politics within the ranks of the Social Democratic Party of Finland (abbreviated SDP). She has been elected a member of the Espoo municipal council and Member of Parliament in the spring elections of 2007. She gained 12530 votes, 10th most in the country.

Her political agenda centers on families, childcare and the like.

Guzenina worked as a radio journalist in the now defunct Radio Aino and Yle Q, which were both AOR radio stations targeted at the thirtysomething and fortysomething crowds. On radio, she could be heard co-hosting a programme with a man about the pitfalls of relationships for couples. Later she wrote a book on the subject, entitled Parisuhteen käsikirja ('A manual for relationships').

Private Life

Marriage to Briton Mark Richardson, the drummer of Skunk Anansie fame, ended in 2001 century due to the spouse's alleged infidelity. Custody of their joint child was entrusted to Guzenina, who allows paternal visits.

Guzenina has given several interviews in Finland making comments about her troubled teenage in a dysfunctional family.

Trivia

Her surname Guzenina comes from her maternal, partly Russian side.

Before she became MTV VJ, she hosted an advertising campaign (1994-1995) about study and job prospects in Europe with an educational rather than entertaining emphasis.

In late 2006 Guzenina filed a lawsuit against Wikipedia for alleged blackballing, but the police dropped the case after brief consideration.
