When Kondulainen began to receive fame with the daring movie roles she played in the late 1980s, her looks were often compared – for instance – to those of Marilyn Monroe and Marlene Dietrich. Soon, she began to be referred to as the first-ever sex symbol of the Soviet Union (1922–1991), and following her performance in the 1990 movie 100 Days Before the Command also the first sex symbol in the Russian Federation (a.k.a. Russia; founded in 1991).[3][4]
In 1993, Kondulainen entered politics, but only for a brief time, to help promote a movement and political party in Russia known as Free Love. Kondulainen composes music for her own songs and writes lyrics for them. She has also continuously been active in various theater arts productions. Her recent acting roles have included e.g. one in which she plays Catherine the Great (a.k.a. Catherine II).

^An interview with Yelena Kondulainen by Arja Paananen in Moscow, published in the largest Finnish daily, Iltasanomat, on 6 October 2018 (in Finnish). A quote from the article: "Kun Kondulainen alkoi kerätä kuuluisuutta 1980-luvun lopussa rohkeilla elokuvarooleillaan, hänen ulkonäköjään verrattiin usein esimerkiksi Marilyn Monroeen tai Marlene Dietrichiin. Pian häntä ryhdyttiinkin kutsumaan ”Neuvostoliiton ensimmäiseksi seksisymboliksi”."
