Cveta Majtanović (Serbian Cyrillic: Цвета Мајтановић; born 31 March 1986) recognized in the Balkans as a singer and songwriter who gained attention and popularity after winning the Idol Serbia-Montenegro & Macedonia, version of the British music competition format, Pop Idol, that became an international TV franchise (broadcast on RTV BK in 2003/2004).[1]

Music

[edit]

After winning the competition on her 18th birthday, Cveta goes to England, London where she meets FremantleMedia license holders and major media sponsors, and soon after she records an EP - Nisam ista.[2] Consequently, Cveta records both English and Serbian versions of her music album in Sony BMG Music Entertainment production studios in Poland, Warsaw signed by Bogdan Kondracki as producer.[1]

In January 2006, it was announced that Majtanović had signed a contract with Mascom Records, exclusive partner of Warner Music Group and an official distributor for Sony BMG Music Entertainment in Serbia.[1]

In 2008, she performed at Beovizija national selection for Serbia's representative at the Eurovision Song Contest, together with an electric quartet "Studio Alektik"[3] and in the final they placed fourth.[1]

In 2007, Majtanović hosted the show Velika trka Inđijanopolisa, aired for six weeks on FOX television in the form of a race to win tickets for the Red Hot Chili Peppers concert in Inđija. The name of the show was created by combining the name of this Municipality in Vojvodina with an allusion to the Indianapolis 500-Mile Race. The RHCP band's most tireless fans who managed to overcome complex tasks, won tickets for a big concert held the same year in this town.[1]

At the end of 2007, Cveta moved to Zurich, Switzerland where she worked as a production director, television presenter and producer in U1 & U2 private TV Stations located in Schlieren.[1]
