Croatian pop star, born May 30, 1986
At the time when she first participated in Dora, the national finals for the Eurovision Song Contest, Claudia was only 12, but she was already an experienced band singer having performed all over Croatia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Slovenia and Montenegro with the Teens - formerly known as Mići rokeri (Little Rockers).
After having enjoyed sales of almost 30,000 for three Teen albums and a number of hit singles, and after receiving the 2002 Porin prize, Claudia broke away from the Teens. Her first 12-song solo album “Claudia” was released just before the summer of 2002. The singles “Tako hrabar da me ostaviš” (Brave Enough To Leave Me) (one of the songs in the Best New Album awarded at the Split Festival 2001), “Ili ona ili ja” (It’s Her or Me) (Zagrebfest 2001), and “Led” (Ice) (HRF 2002) put Claudia at the top of the charts.
Claudia has also worked together with a “veteran” of the Croatian pop scene, Ivana Banfić, singing the song “Hrvatice vas vole” (Croatian Women Love You), dedicated to the national football team during the World Championship in Japan.
Claudia will turned 17 on May 30, 2003. She is a second year student at the Hairstylists’ School in Opatija and lives with her parents and her brother (a member of Teens) at Pobri near Opatija.
