Rosanna Bella Victoria Eriksdotter Munter (born 26 November 1987) is an actress and recording artist from Sweden.

She is best known as a member of the Swedish girl group Play, and she was in a collaborative project with White Lies bassist Charles Cave titled K.I.D.S.

In December 2001, Play released their first album entitled Us Against the World.

The album peaked at number 74 on the Billboard Top 200 and their debut single, "Us Against the World", found success on Radio Disney and Nickelodeon.

Play also made a cameo appearance in Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen's movie Holiday in the Sun performing "Us Against the World".

To promote the album, the group toured nearly non-stop for a year, opening for Destiny's Child, Aaron Carter, and touring with Chris Trousdale and A-Teens.

Their song "Disco Hippie" was featured on a commercial for Build-A-Bear Workshop.

In 2002, they recorded a song and later a filmed a video with Lil' Fizz, formerly of B2K, for the Master of Disguise film.

In 2003, the group released their second album titled Replay which debuted at number 67 on the Billboard Top 200, and remained on the chart for several weeks.

The album's second single "I Must Not Chase The Boys" reached Number 10 on MTV's TRL.

The group later went on to perform "I Must Not Chase The Boys" on Live with Regis and Kelly.

After nearly a year hiatus, it was officially reported in October 2003 that Faye had left the group, and was replaced by Janet Leon, a 13-year-old singer from Gothenburg.

The group's third album, Don't Stop the Music, was released in 2004.

The group partnered with clothing brand Limited Too and became the official spokes models.

Clothing and jewellery from the line was featured in the Swedish version of their music video for their single "everGirl".

Limited Too used the song in commercials, and Play later toured various Limited Too stores across the U.S..

The following year, they released Play Around the Christmas Tree, and shortly after, a compilation of their singles was released on an album titled Girl's Mind.

In late 2005, Play released an official statement on their website, stating that the girl's were going their "separate ways".

While in Play, Rosie generally sang Soprano Harmonies and had occasional solos.

After Play disbanded, Munter dabbled in modeling in New York City before moving back to Sweden.

She enrolled in College and majored in Music.

In 2007 Munter partnered with Swedish artist and producer Kocky.

She lent her vocals to Kocky's debut album Kingdom Came (released 2007).

She is featured in three songs off the album: "My Grandma," "Be Part of It All," and "Tricks" – the latter being released as a single.

The single "Tricks" was released 10 September 2007 and Munter also appeared in the song's music video.

Munter was once again featured heavily on Kocky's second album, Stadium Status, singing on four of the ten tracks.

Featured on "We're Back," "4-ever Juvenile," and "Oh!"

(which she co-wrote with Kocky).

To promote the Stadium Status, Munter and Kocky performed on various Swedish television programs including the morning news show Nyhetsmorgon.

In 2009 Munter launched an official Myspace page and official website (both of which have been disbanded).

She released several demo songs "The First Time," "Gameboy," "Heart Attack," "Tick Tock," "Under Attack," and "Flashing Lights."

She posted a homemade music video for her song "Flashing Lights" on her Myspace page.

She quit the music industry as a recording artist in 2015, and works A&R at Universal Music in Stockholm as of 2022.

She founded and runs a music management company called Logic & Heart.

Munter's first introduction to stardom, prior to joining Play, was at the age of 12, with the supporting role of Petra in the successful Swedish film Eva & Adam – Fyra Födelsedagar och ett Fiasko, directed by Catti Edfeldt.

The film was based on the popular Scandinavian sitcom Eva & Adam.

Munter was one of hundreds of teen girls who auditioned for a spot in Play, an all-girl pop group formed by Laila Bagge, Anders Bagge, and Andreas Karlsson in Stockholm, Sweden.

While rehearsing at Laila's house, Tommy Mottola (who was speaking with Laila on the phone) overheard the group in the background.

He was so impressed with their sound that he flew them to Los Angeles a few days later.

After performing for label executives, Play was signed to Columbia Records.
