Rosenblum was an actress and fashion model, known to foreign media in her youth as Pnina Golan. She appeared in the Israeli films Kasach (1984), Am Yisrael Hai (1981), Lo LeShidur (1981), Diamante Lobo (1976), and Malkat HaKvish (1971).
She debuted as a singer in 1983, in a bid to represent Israel in the Eurovision Song Contest. Her entry, Tamid Isha ("Always a Woman") was ranked last, yet gained popularity in Israel.[3]
In 2014, she and her daughter Chen competed as a team on the fourth season of the Israeli version of The Amazing Race, HaMerotz LaMillion. Pnina tripped and fractured her wrist immediately after departing the Starting Line, eliminating them from the competition before they even had a chance to leave Israel.[4]
Political career
In 1999, she formed an independent list named after herself, together with Avi Balashnikov, in order to run in the 1999 Knesset elections. Her party did not pass the electoral threshold of 1.5%, although her party became the largest without representation. The party dissolved soon afterwards.
Rosenblum later joined the Likud party, and on 10 December 2005 entered the Knesset after the defection of several Likud MKs to Kadima opened up spaces for new Likud members. However, she lost her seat four months later in the March 2006 elections. In 2009 the Likud placed her at the unrealistic 46th place.
Business career
In 1989, she founded her own cosmetics company, Pnina Rosenblum Ltd.
Personal life
In the 1992 she married Moshe Haim, with whom she adopted a daughter and a son from orphanages in Russia and in Romania, respectively. Haim and Rosenblum got divorced, re-married, and then got divorced again.[5]
In 2004, she married Israeli businessman Ronny Simanovich, father of three from his previous marriage, one of whom is Israeli model Coral Simanovich (Spanish footballer Sergi Roberto's wife).[6]
In 1992 Rosenblum purchased a villa in Ramat Gan. This was publicized as one of the most expensive real estate deals made in the country, and in addition, the parties she hosted at her home gained notoriety. In 2011 she sold her home, and she currently resides in Ramat Aviv.
