Career

Operacija trijumf

The Operacija trijumf, Balkan version of Endemol's Fame Academy, started broadcasting on September 29, 2008. Đorđe Gogov was gained great popularity, and was among the favourites for the win.[5] However, he was expelled at the ninth gala event, losing to Vukašin Brajić; everyone was surprised, Brajić perhaps the most.[6][7][8][9] Gogov performed with the expelled students Nikola Sarić and Nikola Paunović at the semifinals event. They covered Billy Idol's hits "White Wedding", "Rebel Yell" and "L.A. Woman".

During the Operacija trijumf, Gogov performed the following songs:

Present

After the end of the Operacija trijumf, the Emotion Production formed a band named "OT Band", consisting of four participants — Vukašin Brajić, Đorđe Gogov, Nikola Paunović and Nikola Sarić. The band took part in the Beovizija 2009, the Serbian national election for the Eurovision Song Contest 2009.[10] Their song, named "Blagoslov za kraj", was written by E. Owen, S. Vukomanović and E. Botric, and was produced at the Universal Music Group.[11][12] The band placed the 2nd, behind Marko Kon and his song "Cipela".[2] OT Band and the rest of Operacija trijumf contestants held two sold-out concerts at Belgrade's Sava Centar, on April 19 and April 20, 2009.[13]
