Early life

After five years of being a successful runway model, including over 350 runway shows and being a cover girl for numerous publications like Sony, Chic Magazine, Elle and Rolling Stone, she grew tired of the industry and decided to focus on her education. She enrolled in Film and Design School and received her bachelor's degree in Journalism.[7] After graduating, she moved to Stockholm and was asked to appear in Expedition Robinson, which was later turned into Survivor in America. Isabel began to work for Size Records as a merchandise designer[8] and traveled with the group all across the world.

Career

Isabel and Steve moved to Los Angeles in 2008. Isabel was cast in Swedish Hollywood Housewives, which she starred in for the next four years in episodes 3, 4, and 5. In 2015 Isabel did a comeback in season 9.[9] In 2014 Isabel was cast as one of the co-stars in the reality show Euros of Hollywood for Bravo, which is an American reality documentary television series on Bravo that premiered on 3 November 2014[10] Other cast members of the show were Massimo Dobrovic, Fawni, Sascha Gerecht, Jannik Olander and Bleona Qereti.

The podcast was released on Expressen as well as on iTunes and they did a total of 50 episodes.

In 2014, Isabel released her best-selling book Sex, Drugs and The DJ. The fictional book is loosely based on Adrian's personal experiences. The book showcases the rise of electronic dance music and the people who are along for the ride. Her book is a love story involving hate, greed, envy, success, and music. At the beginning of 2016, Isabel had teamed up with her husband Steve Angello to produce a feature film based on the book. For the movie she created the music video and song, Bring Me Light together with Audrey Napoleon.[14]
