Nadia Alexandra Björlin (credited as
Bjorlin) (born August 2, 1980) is an American actress.
Bjorlin was born in Newport, Rhode Island, but lived in
Sweden until the age of 7. Her father was the Swedish
composer and conductor Ulf Björlin (1933-1993). Her
mother, Fary, whose background is Persian, is an
interior decorator. Nadia speaks Swedish, Farsi, English
and can sing in other languages as well.
She is also renowned for her beautiful
soprano voice. When her family moved to West Palm Beach,
Florida, she attended the Palm Beach County School of
the Arts (now Dreyfoos School of the arts) along with
her brothers Ulf and Jean Paul, where she excelled in
music and theater. All three siblings have found success
in show business since graduation.
Bjorlin once competed in pageants. In 1998, she placed
as Second Runner-Up in Miss Florida Teen USA.
Career: Nadia Bjorlin's major exposure has been
on the soap opera Days of Our Lives, where she first
appeared as the character Chloe Lane in December 1999.
At first, Chloe was portrayed as a nerdy and geeky kind
of girl with big glasses. Eventually, her character
developed into a quiet beauty who could also sing and
she fell in love with rich, popular Philip Kiriakis,
portrayed by actor Jay Kenneth Johnson. Soon, their
romance turned rocky, and she developed a crush on Brady
Black, portrayed by actor Kyle Lowder.
Bjorlin originally left Days in June 2003 to concentrate
on her singing career. Her character moved to be an
opera star. Bjorlin returned on a recurring basis in
November 2004 after her character supposedly had a
disfiguring car accident and eventually married Brady
Black. In September 2005, Bjorlin left Days of Our Lives
again and joined the cast of the UPN series Sex, Love
& Secrets in the fall of 2005.
The show was cancelled by the network,
but Bjorlin continued to make guest appearances on
television series such as Jake in Progress and Out of
Practice. During the summer of 2005, Bjorlin made guest
appearances on the Fishbowl radio program 'Coming Out
with Reichen,' hosted by her good friend Reichen
Lehmkuhl. The Fishbowl Radio Network is an Internet
radio station for reality television alumni.
Since leaving Days, Bjorlin has wrapped up shooting the
feature independent film, If I Had Known I was a Genius,
which starred Markus Redmond, Whoopi Goldberg, Sharon
Stone, and Tara Reid. The film was screened at the
Sundance Film Festival in January 2007.
Bjorlin was also cast as the female lead of the Chicago
Pictures' feature film, Redline. The film starred Eddie
Griffin and Nathan Phillips, and was released in
theaters on April 13, 2007.
Bjorlin portrays Natasha Martin, a young
automobile fanatic and lead singer of a still unsigned
West Coast band. The character finds herself caught up
in illegal drag-racing competitions organized for the
pleasure of a bunch of bored multi-millionaires. |
