I’m Madeleine Malmberg, a 20-year-old from Norway, and I like to think of myself as a bit of a jack-of-all-trades! My passions are as varied as they are enriching, and they’ve all played a part in shaping who I am today.

At the heart of my journey is my love for acting. I’ve had the privilege of being involved in seven film productions, both big and small, which have truly ignited my dedication to the performing arts. Excitingly, I’m about to take on roles as both an actor and an extra in two upcoming Netflix productions—so stay tuned!

Music is another cornerstone of my life; I’ve spent seven years playing the violin, which has deepened my appreciation for the art. My upbringing also included singing, gymnastics, and even dabbling in figure skating for five years. These experiences have not only been enjoyable but have also imparted invaluable lessons.

Last year, I hit a major milestone by winning the title of Miss International Norway 2023, representing my country in Tokyo at the prestigious Miss International competition, viewed by millions worldwide. In 2024, the Miss Norway organisation handpicked me once again to represent Norway in the world’s largest beauty contest, Miss Grand International 2024, taking place in Cambodia and Thailand. Both of these achievements have opened up incredible opportunities, including serving as an ambassador for the CNN Hero award-winning humanitarian organisation Maiti Nepal and presenting honorary awards at the Spanish Film Festival 2023. I’ve also had the chance to work at Paris Fashion Week and participate in international photoshoots in countries like Norway, Spain, Sweden, Poland, and Tanzania, all while pursuing my acting dreams.
