Swedish celebrity Hannah Graaf first became a famous model in the
1990s. With her classical beauty she had very little trouble finding
work in the fashion industry during her teen years.
At the age of 18, Hannah chose a different direction for her career.
Inspired by the phenomenal success of actress and sex symbol, Pamela
Anderson, Hannah had breast augmentation surgery. Her new image was
that of the stereotypical Swedish sex kitten and she was soon
catapulted into the spotlight by every major Swedish men's magazine on
the market.
Second only to Victoria Silvstedt, Hannah quickly became Sweden's most
popular nude model. She controversially posed nude regularly with her
sister Magdalena Graaf. The sisters used a portion of their earnings to
open a charity for impoverished children in India. Hannah, who was
raised in the Swedish Pentacostal church, maintains that she never
completely turned her back on its conservative Christian values.
Hannah and her sister Magdalena retired from nude modeling in 1998 when
they embarked on a new career as the pop music duo Graaf and release
the album 'Graaf Sisters'. They worked with producers Christer
Sandelin, Tommy Ekman, and Rob 'n' Raz. The record yielded the Swedish
#1 hit 'You Got (What I Want)'.
These days Hannah remains a famous 'scandal beauty'. A whimsical and
independent spirit, she shocked her fans when she landed herself at the
center of a criminal investigation. During this time, Hannah famously
changed her look again, dying her hair dark brown and donning brown
contact lenses. Over the years she has became a skilled manipulator of
the media. Creating photos ops by dating famous men, like Swedish
football star Martin Dahlin. Hannah again found herself in the middle
of media controversy when she became pregnant and refused to name the
father of her child. However this provided another opportunity for her
to make front page news when her son, William, was born and she
revealed that millionaire Swedish songwriter/music producer Andreas
Carlsson (songwriting partner of Max Martin) was her son's father. She
was married for three years to male model, Daniel Boudal, and they had
a son together named Mio. They divorced in 2006. In 2008 she married
Peter Karyd and they have two daughters together, Liv and Vida.
