Carolina Gynning Nilsson (born October 6, 1978) is a Swedish model and television personality. She became famous in Sweden in 2004 when she won the television game show Big Brother. Gynning has written a book called Ego girl, in which she described how she became a model at 17 and got lost into a world of drugs and sex before straightening out her life. She is currently a host for TV4 show Idol series.

Gynning considers herself a "national bombshell"[1] and is famous for her breast implants. However, in January 2007 she announced that she had tired of her image and was selling her implants on eBay for charity.[2]

On 16 February 2007 Gynning returned to her job as a host on the TV talk show Förkväll and showed her removed breast implants. As a symbol of her past, she will symbolically bury the implants in a plexi glass box before auctioning them off.[3]

On April 4, it was revealed that Gynning along with Carina Berg will host the fourth season of Idol 2007 in Sweden. Gynning and Berg have worked together on Förkväll. Idol 2007 will be shown on TV4. Peter Jihde will then host the Top10 final shows.
