Ceca

Svetlana Ražnatović (maiden Veličković), also known as Ceca (pronounced Tsetsa) (Serbian: Светлана "Цеца" Величковић-Ражнатовић, Svetlana "Ceca" Veličković-Ražnatović) was born on June 14, 1973, in Žitorađa, Yugoslavia (now Serbia). Ceca is a very popular and successful Serbian pop folk singer in the Balkan countries. Her success has made her one of the highest paid artists in the Serbian music industry. Ceca began her career as a folk and turbo folk singer but her style has evolved to resemble the Serbian modern folk-pop-dance music, and is mostly a mixture of Southern Europe, Latin and Oriental styles. Ceca is popular among the Balkan population living in South and Eastern Europe.
