Lorena Medina Bio
Lorena Medina is a Mexican glamour model, television personality, social media influencer, and singer. She was born on January 18, 1992, in Mexico City, Mexico. Playboy named her its August 2018 Playmate at 26. Her appearance came during Playboy's contemporary era of international and digital publishing.
Medina has natural breasts, brown eyes and brown hair. Her measurements are 32-23-34.
Lorena Medina’s route into modeling began while she was working bottle service in Hermosa Beach. A woman approached her during a shift and handed her a business card, an encounter Medina later described as the moment she realized professional modeling could become a possibility. By the time Playboy interviewed her, she had relocated to Los Angeles and was pursuing work in front of the camera.
Medina also spoke openly about an interest far removed from conventional modeling. She said she had felt unusually intuitive since childhood and recalled unexpectedly “channeling” someone several years earlier. A subsequent tarot reading reinforced her curiosity when the reader told her she possessed a particularly strong gift. Medina admitted that she had previously been skeptical of such ideas, but the experience changed how she interpreted some of those earlier sensations.
Her Playboy pictorial was photographed by Christopher von Steinbach, adding another editorial collaboration to a career already centered on visual presentation. Medina described herself at the time as spontaneous and drawn to adventure, preferring to make decisions without excessive planning. That attitude appeared in the way she discussed everyday life as much as in her professional choices.
Television later widened her public profile beyond still photography. Medina appeared on Celebrity Ex on the Beach, bringing her into the reality-television format and introducing her to an audience outside glamour and fashion imagery. Her work has also extended across social media, where modeling, lifestyle content and television exposure became increasingly connected parts of her public career.
Her professional life eventually developed an international rhythm between the United States and her Mexican background, with Miami later becoming a base for her work. Modeling remained central, but television and social media gave her career additional outlets beyond magazine photography. Those later projects followed the same willingness to move between cities, platforms and different kinds of public-facing work that had characterized her career from its earliest stages.
