Sarit Hadad, 41, is a highly successful Israeli pop singer who represented the country in the 2002 Eurovision Song Contest. Seven years later, she was named “best female singer of the 2000s” by the Israeli Music TV Channel. In addition, Hadad was a longtime judge on the popular television singing competition The Voice Israel.
Quote: “In December 2006, Hadad drew crowds in New York City, Miami, and Los Angeles with her “Sing with Sarit” tour. Hadad typically performs Mizrahi music, often employing Arabic lyrics. [She] sings in multiple languages including English, Arabic, Georgian, Turkish, Greek, and Hebrew. She was the first Israeli to perform (professionally) in Jordan.” — Wikipedia
