Janis Maria Wilson (born March 22, 1985) is a Norwegian model and actress. She is known for portraying Miss Gudbrandsdalen in the Norwegian-American TV series entitled Lilyhammer.[3]
Career[edit]
Wilson is of Croatian and Italian descent. She was born in Rome but grew up in Norwegian county of Oppland and town of Lillehammer.[1] She studied marketing and economics at the BI Norwegian Business School.[1][4] She began modeling while still in college. In 2006 she appeared in the Norwegian television series Shopaholic,[1] was a finalist in the Miss Norway modeling contest,[1] and appeared in a commercial for Norwegian financial firm DNB ASA. She was on the cover of magazines such as Beauty Style, Lowrider, and Norwegian magazine Gatebil.[1] In an interview in 2006, she claimed the modeling industry had a bad reputation, saying that she personally had never used drugs.[5] In 2010, she was one of 21 Norwegians competing for a chance to become a Playboy cover model.[6] In 2012, she landed the role of Miss Gudbrandsdalen in Lilyhammer.[3]
Personal life[edit]
Wilson was the alleged victim of personal attacks on two separate occasions in 2010. While on assignment in Turkey, there were reports of a dispute regarding a garment which escalated into an apparent altercation between Wilson shopkeepers at a clothing shop in the Turkish beach resort of Alanya. Wilson blamed the shopkeepers for causing scratches and bruises to Wilson's face;[7][8] in contrast, the shopkeepers reported that they were attacked by Wilson and her mother after a dress was reportedly missing.[9] A few months later, there were reports of an unrelated second assault which happened in Oslo;[8] in this attack, also in 2010, Wilson reported that she was walking her dog in a park near her home when an unknown assailant attacked her; she suffered stab wounds and bruises and scratches but managed to survive.[10]
