Ida Ljungqvist was named Playboy Playmate of the Year for 2009 in a ceremony held over the weekend in Las Vegas, the first time the ceremony was not held at the Playboy Mansion.

Ida Ljungqvist, with a name sure to frustrate many determined Googlers, is half Swedish and half Tazmanian. She’s the 50th ever Playmate of the Year and holds a degree in fashion design and marketing.

Ljungvist was briefly married to actor Joshua Lang, but the two divorced. It wasn’t an amicable split; the two squabbled particularly bitterly over a pet chihuahua. I’m sure Lang misses her from time to time, just from these photos.
