Ivi Adamou (Greek: Ήβη Αδάμου, pronounced [ˈivi aˈðamu]; born 24 November 1993) is a Greek Cypriot singer who rose to recognition in Greece and Cyprus following her participation in the second season of the Greek version of The X Factor, where she was under the mentorship of Giorgos Theofanous. Adamou secured a recording contract with Sony Music Greece and released her debut extended play Kalokairi Stin Kardia, which was certified gold. In the same year she collaborated with the Spiros Lambrou Choir and released the holiday EP Christougenna Me Tin Ivi Adamou, released as Christmas with Ivi Adamou abroad. Ivi Adamou represented Cyprus in the Eurovision Song Contest 2012 with the song La La Love.[1] She placed 16th in the grand final. A new album, Eho Ourano (I Have Sky), would be released in summer of 2013 but its release was canceled as Sony Music Greece had closed.

Since 2010, Ivi had several nominations in both the MAD Video Music Awards and the Madame Figaro Awards. However she has currently won five awards. She was awarded as the best Cypriot woman singer in 2010 and 2012.[2][3] She was also awarded as the best singer in Cyprus in 2012 which was the first time that the award was given.[4] In 2011, she received the award for the best video clip urban for her work with Stavento in "San Erthi I Mera".[5] In 2013, her song with Marsal Ventura, "Time to Love" won the Spanish awards, LaLore02 Awards, for the best song of the year.[6]

Biography and career

Ivi has grown up in Ayia Napa, Cyprus

Early life

Ivi Adamou was born on 24 November 1993 in Ayia Napa, Famagusta, to a Greek Cypriot father and a Bulgarian mother.[7][8] She has two sisters, one older and one younger. Music theory, vocal lessons, and piano allowed her to acquire the suitable skills to win prizes in several local song competitions; at the age of 9, her participation in a competition in Larnaka won her a first place finish with the song "Kaka Paidia" by Anna Vissi. After her participation in the second series of the Greek version of the X Factor she signed a contract with Sony Music Greece and since then she lives in Greece, where she is currently studying at the Panteion University. Even though she had started a musical career she decided to study sociology.[9][10]

2009–10: The X Factor

In 2009–2010, she took part in the second series of the Greek version of The X Factor, ending in sixth place. She lists Beyoncé as her biggest influence, as well as Christina Aguilera and Whitney Houston. Almost all the songs she performed were in the English language with only one of them being in the Greek language.

Adamou sang "Just Dance" on the first live show and she received positive reviews by the judges. In the second and third live show, she sang P!nk's "Just Like A Pill" and Kelly's "Because of You" respectively and she once again received positive reviews with the latter one being honored as one of the best performances until then. However, with her performance of "Papa Don't Preach" in the fourth live show she received negative reviews, with Nikos Mouratidis stating that the song didn't suit to her voice. After her unsuccessful performance of the fourth live, she tried to give her best at the next live shows. She performed "When I Grow Up", "Hurt" and "Halo" at the next three live shows, which once again were positively reviewed by the judges. On the eighth live she performed her first Greek song, "Hristougenna" along with "All I Want For Christmas Is You".

On the ninth live show Adamou performed "Celebration", which was the second song of Madonna that she performed. She also had a duet with her team mate, Nini and they performed Anna Vissi's "Dodeka". On the tenth live show she performed "I Love Rock 'n' Roll" and even though she received mostly positive reviews, Mouratidis had negative opinion on the performance as well on her previous performance. On the eleventh live show, she performed another song from the Pussycat Dolls, "Hush Hush". For first time, Adamou was in bottom two with Hovig but she was saved by the judges. In the final showdown, she chose to perform "I Have Nothing", the song she sang in the bootcamp. On the twelfth live show, she performed for second time, a song from Christina Aguilera.

Even though she was one of the favorites to win, she was eliminated during the twelfth week, where she came at bottom two against her team mate Nini Shermandini. She was voted to stay in by George Levendis and Nikos Mouratidis and Nini was voted by Katerina Gagaki and George Theofanous. Even though it was tied, Theofanous' vote counted twice and therefore Adamou was eliminated.[11] After her elimination, a "fight" started between Sony and Theofanous while the record label wanted Adamou to return because of the fake results, as the media stated.[12][13][14]

2010–11: Post-The X Factor, Kalokairi Stin Kardia and San Ena Oniro

While Adamou was not a finalist in The X Factor with her sixth place finish, she did manage to obtain a record deal with Sony Music Greece, an affiliate of the show. Her dramatic and tension filled elimination was the source of a publicized dispute- both on air during The X Factor and in the press- between representatives of Sony Music Greece and Theofanous.[15][16] Her first single, "A*G*A*P*I" was release just a few days after her elimination from the show.[17] She performed the song for first time at Aksizei Na To Deis (It's Worth to Watch), a show of ANT1. Its music video was released on March 22, 2010.[18] After her debut single, Adamou released a Greek version of the Barbie in A Mermaid Tale soundtrack.[19]

On 13 April 2010, Adamou's first collaboration was released through the MAD TV; she was featured on Stavento's song "San Erthi I Mera" which became a summer hit in Greece and Cyprus.[20][21] In less than three months, the song got more than 3 million views in the original video which was later taken down which made it one of the most viewed Greek music videos at that time.[22] The song stayed in the top five of the Greek Airplay Chart for 20 weeks, and sold 60 thousand legal downloads. Her second single, "Sose Me", was released on 27 April 2010 with its video clip premiering on 5 May 2010.[23] A few days later, the trailers for Adamou's debut album were revealed. Meanwhile, Adamou started touring in Greece and Cyprus along with Stavento. On 14 June 2010, Adamou performed at the 2010 MAD Video Music Awards with the band OtherView, a cover of the song "Last Kiss", originally by Ishtar.[24]

The X Factor was like a school for me. It helped me get directed on what genre I will continue working on.

In early 2011, Adamou admitted that she got proposition from ERT to represent Greece in the 2011 Eurovision Song Contest which she turned down stating that even if she's interested in participating, she wants to finish school.[40] In March 2011, she started working on her first studio album.[41] In April 2011, Adamou collaborated with Melisses in the song written by the band, "Krata Ta Matia Sou Klista".[42] Both the song and the music video premiered on 23 April 2013. In May 2011, it was announced that Adamou will release a song named "Murderous"[43] which caused "fights" between Adamou's and Paparizou's fans as the song was previously announced as Paparizou's song.[44] The song was later included in Adamou's first studio album as a Greek-language song.

On June 14 2011, Adamou attended the 2011 MAD Video Music Awards and performed with Midenistis a remix of the song "Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)".

At the running order draw, Cyprus was drawn to perform 12th in the first semi-final on 22 May 2012 and then successfully reached the final where it was drawn to perform 8th and ultimately finished in 16th place.[53][54][55] La La Love entered the single charts in many European countries, including Spain, UK, Germany & Sweden. "La La Love" along with the other national final songs were included in the Euro Edition of San Ena Oniro with additionally a Greek version of "You Don't Belong Here" titled "Fotia Vrohi".

On 14 January 2013, on an appearance on Mega Channel's program Proino Mou, she announced that she would be releasing a new album in February 2013, but the album was not released during that time.[56] Ivi also announced through her Facebook page that her new song with Marsal Ventura, "Time to Love", would be released in early February.[57] Stavento posted a backstage photo from the shooting of their new song with Ivi named "Na Sou Tragoudo" which was released on 4 March 2013 and was available for digital download on 11 March 2013.[58][59]

Adamou renewed her cooperation with Sony Music Greece on 5 April 2013.[60] Adamou revealed during her interview at MTV that her new album will have the title Eho Ourano (I Have Sky).
