  A few words for Stefania 

  Stefania Liberakakis was born 17 December 2002 in Utrecht, also known simply as Stefania, is a Greek–Dutch singer, actress, voice actress and YouTuber.

  Earlier, in 2013, Liberakakis was a contestant in the third season of The Voice Kids in the Netherlands. She joined Team Borsato after her blind audition, but was eliminated in the battle rounds. She then joined the children’s choir Kinderen voor Kinderen, which she left after two years.

  In 2016 as member of the group Kisses she represented The Netherlands in στην Junior Eurovision 2016 performing the song  Kisses and Dancin which came 8th.

  In 2018, Liberakakis released her first solo single named “Stupid Reasons”. In 2019, she released three more singles: “Wonder”, “I’m Sorry (Whoops!)” and “Turn Around”.  From 2018 onwards, she stars as Fenna in the TV-series Brugklas (English: The First Years) and the movie Brugklas: De tijd van m’n leven. She also starred in other Dutch movies, including De Club van Lelijke Kinderen (as singer) and 100% Coco New York (as Lilly).^[

  In June 2019, she performed a cover of the song “Con Calma” (together with Konnie Metaxa and Ilenia Williams) at the MAD Video Music Awards, which was broadcast on Greek television.

  In 2020 she was  internally selected to represent Greece in Eurovision 2020 with her song 'Supergi!rl'. Unfortunately the contest was cancelled due to the covid-19 pandemic with Stefania losing the chance to complete her journey to Rotterdam. That happened a year after, as ERT  decided to continue with the young talented act in Eurovision 2021 where she represented Greece singing the 80's style song 'Last Dance' which brought the country back in the top-10 finishing 10th with 170 points in the overall score. 

  After her follow up single "Mucho Calor" signed by Dimitris Kintopoulos and ARCADE, which initially was submitted as a potential Eurovision entry, Stefania  returnied with her new song "Wait No More".
