Mona Grudt (born 6 April 1971) is a Norwegian TV host, model, editor and beauty queen who was crowned Miss Universe 1990. She is so far the only Norwegian to win the Miss Universe title.
Miss Universe Grudt became the clear favorite of the judges, winning the interview and swimsuit preliminaries and all three segments of the semi-finals. During the 1990 Miss Universe competition, she listed herself as "The beauty queen from Hell" as a publicity stunt (because she was born in the village of Hell, located in Stjørdal Municipality, Norway; however 'hell' also means 'luck' in Norwegian).
Grudt returned to the Miss Universe pageant in 1994 as a member of the jury. In 2010, she became the host of the seventh cycle of Norway's Next Top Model, which aired the following year.
