Biography

Victoria Silvstedt is a Swedish fashion model and actress. She is best known for being the Playmate of the Year in 1997 and for being the first runner-up in the 1993 Miss Sweden contest.

Victoria Silvstedt was born on September 19, 1974 in Skellefteå, Sweden. She has two siblings, an older sister and a younger brother.
