Биография
Early Life
Sharon Cohen, known professionally as Dana International, was born on February 2, 1969, in Tel Aviv, Israel, to a family of Yemenite-Jewish descent. The youngest of three children, she was named after an uncle who was tragically killed in a terrorist attack. From a young age, Dana identified as female and aspired to be a singer, a dream supported by her mother despite their family's financial struggles. At just 13, she came out as transgender, marking the beginning of her journey toward self-acceptance.
Career Beginnings
Dana's career took off at the age of 18 when she performed as a drag queen, parodying famous female artists. It was during one of these performances that she caught the attention of Offer Nissim, a prominent Israeli DJ, who produced her debut single "Saida Sultana." This satirical take on Whitney Houston's song garnered significant attention and helped launch her music career. In 1993, after undergoing male-to-female sex reassignment surgery, she released her first album, "Danna International," which achieved gold status in Israel and was distributed in several countries, including Jordan and Egypt.
Rise to Fame
Dana's second album, "Umpatampa," released in 1994, solidified her status as a pop icon in Israel, going platinum and producing several hit singles. Her most notable achievement came in 1998 when she won the Eurovision Song Contest in Birmingham with her song "Diva," making history as the first transgender winner of the competition. This victory not only elevated her career but also made her a symbol of LGBTQ+ representation in the music industry. Over the years, Dana has released multiple albums, including "Maganuna," "Free," and "Diva: The Hits," showcasing her evolution as an artist and her enduring impact on pop music.
