Dilnarin "Dee" Demirbag is a dancer, singer and photo model who came to Sweden with her family in 1976, and was born 14 November 1973 into a Kurdish nomadic family in Kirvan, a small village in eastern Turkey.

She has been in Swedish TV series NileCity 105.6 in 1995 and was dancing in Staffan Linguist's Swedish TV program Stadskampen.

She was featured on number 8/1999 issue of Swedish men magazine Café Magazine and featured on the cover (not nude or semi-nude) and on the Okej magazine.

In 2000 Dee signed up with Stockholm Records for a solo project and made her debut single All The Way Up followed by the single Want You To Go in the next year but although both with good videos they failed to grab public attention.

In 2001 she left E-Type, but since 2005 she has been touring with the band on most concerts and still does so.

She is sister to journalist and author Dilsa Demirbag Sten and to artist Dilba Demirbag , and brothers Dilber and Assad.

[edit] Dee and E-type

Dee is a dancer and backup singer for E-Type usually miming the words sang by the main vocal Nana Hedin.

A common misconception about her is that she is the female singer for E-Type since Nana Hedin has only appeared in one E-type video (Set The World On Fire) and in all the others Dee filled in for her.

Dee's voice has actually only been used on a live track from the Made in Sweden album, which is track 12 (the unplugged version of Set The World On Fire).

Since her solo project speculations about Dee’s and E-Type’s arguments made her make the following statement: “We argue pretty often, me and E-Type. We have been working together for such a long time and we are like sisters and brothers, and sisters and brothers argue pretty often, don’t they?”
