Angela Melini Bio
Angela Melini is a Vietnamese glamour model, actress, television personality, and entrepreneur. She was born Angela Jane Melini on July 7, 1969, in Saigon, Vietnam. Playboy named her its June 1992 Playmate at 22. Her appearance came during Playboy's 1990s print era, a period increasingly shaped by entertainment and celebrity culture.
Melini has natural breasts, brown eyes and brown hair. Her measurements are 36-26-35.
From Saigon to centerfold, Angela Melini's journey to Playboy fame is one of resilience, radiance, and reinvention. Born to a Vietnamese mother and an Italian-American soldier father who was tragically killed in action before her birth, Angela's life began amidst the final years of the Vietnam War. In 1975, she and her mother emigrated to the United States, settling in the peaceful suburbs near Olympia, Washington.
Angela flourished in her new home, graduating from Timberline High School in 1987 and later earning a B.A. in Early Childhood Education from the University of Washington. But fate had other plans: her Playboy story began when she was spotted sitting curbside outside the magazine's Los Angeles headquarters. One glance was all it took - Angela was Playmate material.
Her unforgettable centerfold was shot by the legendary Arny Freytag. But her relationship with Playboy was more than just a moment in the spotlight - it became a decade-long career. Angela went on to appear in numerous Playboy videos and newsstand special editions, and evolved into a promotional model, feature reporter for Playboy TV, and a well-known presence at Playboy events around the world.
Beyond the magazine, Angela explored acting - playing Bonnie in the action thriller "Silk Degrees" - and eventually stepped behind the scenes. She discovered future Playmates Destiny Davis and Stacy Fuson, mentored rising models.
Now based in Las Vegas, Angela still makes select appearances at fan events like Glamourcon, where she signs memorabilia, connects with fans, and scouts new talents. Smart, sensual, and striking in every way, Angela Melini is not just a classic Playmate - she's a force that helped shape the Playboy legacy from both in front of and behind the camera.
