Vendela Lindblom Bio
Vendela Lindblom is a Swedish Playboy model, fashion model, glamour model, actress, gamer, and social media influencer, born on November 11, 1995, in Stockholm, Sweden, best known for her appearance as Playboy's Playmate of the Month for January 2019. By the time she appeared in Playboy's Winter 2019 issue, photographed by Josh Ryan, she had already developed a public image that felt sharply different from the familiar Playmate mold. With Stockholm as her birthplace and Los Angeles listed as her current city in Playboy's data sheet, Vendela brought a cool European edge into a distinctly modern California frame.
At 5'6 with brown eyes, brown hair, natural breasts, and a 33-25-36 figure, Vendela combined compact proportions with a striking visual signature. Her shaved head gave her image a clean, graphic force, while her Scorpio intensity added a sense of mystery and control. Tattoos on her left collarbone, left lower abdomen, and right biceps, along with both nipple piercings, gave her look a personal, contemporary sharpness. She did not read as delicate or ornamental; she read as deliberate, stylish, and impossible to confuse with anyone else.
When Vendela was named Miss January 2019, she appeared in Playboy at 23, opening the year with a Playmate feature that challenged softer and more conventional expectations of glamour. The boxing-ring setting of her pictorial reinforced that impression, presenting her not simply as a model in front of the lens, but as a woman with discipline, nerve, and a taste for risk. Her feature kept Playboy's essential language of sensuality and confidence, but translated it into something cooler, more minimal, and more self-directed.
Before Playboy, Vendela Lindblom had already crossed into fashion, visual media, and gaming culture. She became recognizable to many players through Battlefield 1: In the Name of the Tsar, where she served as the visual model for the game's first female multiplayer character. In Playboy's own profile, she described a contrast between her tough appearance and her shy real-life personality, explaining how modeling helped her access confidence. She also presented herself as blunt, sarcastic, instinctive, loyal, and unwilling to perform a false version of herself.
What makes Vendela Lindblom memorable is the clarity of her image and the intention behind it. Her shaved head was never just a styling choice; it became part of a larger statement about self-possession, identity, and refusing to soften every edge for public approval. As Playboy's Miss January 2019, she helped update the Playmate idea for a late-2010s audience: fashion-forward, visually fearless, emotionally guarded but honest, and compelling precisely because she made glamour feel sharper and more personal.
