Melania Trump was born Melanija Knavs on April 26, 1970, in Slovenia, which was then part of communist Yugoslavia. She's the first FLOTUS from a communist nation and the first foreign-born first lady since Louisa Adams, the England-born wife of John Quincy Adams, who served as the sixth U.S. president from 1825-1829.

She was a model

Melania began her modeling career at the age of 16 and signed with an agency in Milan at age 18. She's posed for the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue and appeared on the cover of Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, InStyle and New York Magazine.

She knows how to dress to impress

She is the only first lady to have posed nude

"A celebration of the human body as art", as commented by POTUS.

More than just a beauty

She served as a Good Will Ambassador for the American Red Cross from 2005 to 2009 and has also been involved with the Police Athletic League, the Boys Club of New York and Love Our Children USA.
