Anna Sophia Berglund

Meet Anna Sophia Berglund, Playboy's stunning Miss January 2011. Born April 5, 1986, in San Pedro, California, this Swedish-descended beauty sports fair blonde hair, hazel eyes, and soft, blush-tinted skin. With measurements of 34D-25-36 and standing at 5 feet 6 inches, she turns heads everywhere. A model and actress, Anna earned her theater degree from UCLA and honed her skills at the Beverly Hills Playhouse. She landed guest spots on Desperate Housewives as one character and as a manicurist on Hannah Montana. Lately, she stars alongside gunslinger Michael Madsen in the crime film Cockroaches. 'I love modeling, but acting is my true passion,' she says. 'I worked hard for my degree, and I'll work even harder for my career.' Fans of The Girls Next Door or Holly's World will spot Anna as a close friend of Hef's top girlfriend, Crystal Harris. She hung out a lot at the Mansion and even tested for Playmate status. One day, Hef surprised her by showing her her own test shot as the next Playmate. Anna supported Hef when Crystal left him at the altar—he called her 'one in a million'—and she stays a valued part of the Playboy family now that they're back together. Anna adores The Phantom of the Opera, which shines through in her dramatic Playmate pictorial, but comedy fires her up most. She dreams of joining Saturday Night Live. 'I hosted the Playboy Comedy Show at the Palms in Vegas,' she shares. 'That's pretty close!' Today, she lives in Los Angeles, acting, doing promotional modeling, and hosting for Playboy and other top gentlemen's brands. This Playmate keeps busy—no sitting still for her. On days off, she shops, hits the gym, or swings her racket on the tennis court or golf course with friends. Catch a show? She's there front row.
