Lena Mayer-landrut

A young girl without musical education and serious experience on stage made a splash when she became the winner of Eurovision 2010 in Norway. The victory changed Lena Meyer's life, making her popular in her homeland. At the same time, publicity does not prevent Lena from hiding the details of her biography.

The full name of the singer is Lena Johanna Teresa Mayer-Landrut, but for the stage the girl uses only the name Lena. The girl was born in Germany on May 23, 1991. The baby's father left the family when she was only two years old, and her mother raised her daughter alone.

But the grandfather of the future Eurovision star, a native of Estonia Andreas Mayer-Landrut, is closely connected with the political life of the USSR. For a long time Andreas, or as he is called in Russia - Andrei Pavlovich, was the ambassador of Germany and the FRG to the Soviet Union. After retirement, the former diplomat retained his attachment to Russia and even owns an apartment in Moscow.

Since childhood, the girl was fond of dancing. At the age of five, she herself asked her mother to take her to a dance club. It all started with a classical ballroom school, and later the hobby grew into modern choreography. Hip-hop and jazz-dance gradually became the main and favorite directions.

In an interview, Lena recalls that as a child she felt terribly unprepossessing and ugly, so she was shy. Dancing helped the teenager feel confident.

In addition to choreography, the girl showed creative talent in cinema. She starred in minor roles in several German TV series. However, acting did not bring popularity, although it did serve as a certain experience for the young woman seeker in the art world.

As for education, then the girl is a real excellent student. Graduated from the prestigious IGS Roderbruch Hannover in 2010. She managed to combine her studies and the beginning of a serious musical career. As a brilliant singer, Lena Mayer announced herself at the most popular European Eurovision Song Contest.

Despite her versatile personality and a wide range of interests in her work, the girl never seriously studied music or vocals. No music school, no vocal courses. We can say that the singer is a nugget, as the European media began to call her after the resounding success at Eurovision in 2010.

Lena Mayer decided to take part in the competition "Our Star for Oslo", organized to select the representative of Germany for Eurovision in Norway. Out of 4,500 applicants, Lena got into the top twenty of the competition participants, having performed the song Adele in the qualifying round. As the singer herself said, she wanted to test herself, to receive an assessment of her talent from the outside.

By the audience vote, Lena was selected with the song Satellite among other participants and received the right to represent the country at the 55th Eurovision Song Contest. The video for the song was recorded on the night before the final of the qualifying competition and immediately after the show scored a record number of views on the YouTube video hosting. So, long before participation in Eurovision, the young singer became one of the favorites.

At the competition, the girl appeared at number 22. The performance was as simple as possible: there was no choreography or backing vocals. Lena surpassed the competition by a huge margin, gaining 246 points, while the group from Turkey, which took second place, received only 170 points.

The victory in the popular European competition brought the girl instant fame not only in her homeland, but also in Europe. Her songs soar to the top of the German charts. Concerts, interviews, recordings of new compositions and the popularity of the first album, My Cassette Player, followed.

In 2011, the singer received an offer to re-represent the country in the Eurovision final, to which Lena happily agreed. She performed the song Taken by a Stranger. Unfortunately, the success of 2010 could not be repeated. The audience in the hall warmly greeted and supported the participant, but Lena took only the tenth line in the list of contestants.

After a not very successful performance, the singer's popularity began to decline. Nevertheless, Lena Mayer continued her career in her native Germany. In April 2011 she went on her first concert tour across the country. In the same year, the second studio album was recorded, and another one was released in 2012. Both albums are at the top of the German music charts.

In the same 2012, Mayer, together with other winners of the Eurovision Song Contest, took part in the semifinals of the competition as an invited guest, performing the song that brought victory in Norway.

After a break, in 2015, the singer's next disc was released - Crystal Sky, on which Traffic Lights became the first single. While recording the album, the girl collaborated with British and American artists. The songs and music were electronic and different from Mayer's previous style.

With the release of the album, two new videos are shot, one of which - Home - is dedicated, like the song, to the singer's deceased girlfriend. The album was a success, reaching # 2 in iTunes in Germany. And the single Wild and Free was taken as the official soundtrack for the film "Passing Teacher 2".

Lena Mayer categorically refuses to share the details of her personal life. The girl boldly tells reporters that this is not their business.

After Eurovision 2010, on the stage of which the previous winner Alexander Rybak kissed a German woman, rumors began to circulate about their romance. But in an interview with Love Radio, the singer completely denied the speculation and explained that the kiss was just a joke.

In 2017, the singer's last album for today was released. Lena continues to give concerts at home with success. Since 2013 he has been one of the mentors in the program “Voice. Children".

Photos of the girl on the official page on Instagram indicate that Lena leads an active social life, records new songs, attends fashion shows and travels. On the same page, the singer published the announcement of the opening of the Lena Shop, however, no details appeared at the beginning of 2018. By the way, the girl's page on Instagram has several million subscribers and is popular on the Web.
