Featured : Kuunkuiskaajat

Kuunkuiskaajat are a female folk music duo, who have been selected to represent Finland in the 2010 Eurovision Song Contest. The women concerned are Susan Aho and Johanna Virtanen, who also form part of the folk music group Värttinä. The name Kuunkuiskaajat translates into English as Moon Whispers, and the victory of their song Työlki ellää in the Finnish national selection is thought to owe a lot to the success of Estonia's superb 'ethnic' entry to Eurovision last year.

Kuunkuiskaajat's official website, containing photo galleries, can be found here.

Featured : Ola Jordan

Currently leading the way in our Strictly Come Dancing poll is the beautiful Polish professional dancer Ola Jordan. In the current series of Strictly she is partnering TV presenter and former sportsman Chris Hollins, but she has appeared on the show since the fourth series, previously partnering former tennis player and TV presenter Andrew Castle, former Scotland rugby international Kenny Logan, and DJ Spoony. She is married to fellow Strictly professional dancer James Jordan - her maiden name was Grabowska.

In her pre-Strictly days, Ola notched up a number of more conventional achievements as a dancer, including a semi-final place in the amateur worlds.

Ola and James Jordan's official website includes a biography, news section, and most importantly a stunning photo gallery of Ola.

Featured : Vanilla Ninja

Vanilla Ninja are a girlband from Estonia. They were the overwhelming favourites of the public when they competed in Eurolaul - the Estonian national selection for Eurovision - with the song Club Kung-Fu, but were overlooked by the international jury of musical 'experts' who made the final decision. Strangely they were then invited to compete for Switzerland in the 2005 competition, which at least had the advantage of allowing the Estonian public to vote for them in the televote! They did so in droves, and the group's rock track Cool Vibes finished in a creditable eighth position on the final leaderboard.

Featured : Elena Paparizou

Although raised in Sweden, Elena Paparizou has twice sung for Greece at the Eurovision Song Contest. In 2001 in Copenhagen it was as part of the group Antique, and the song Die for You finished a creditable third behind Estonia and the hosts Denmark. In 2005 she returned to the Eurovision stage in Kyiv as a solo artist with My Number One, which swept all before it to score Greece's first ever victory in the contest.

You can visit Elena's official website (where she goes by her now-preferred spelling of Helena), complete with photo gallery and biography, here.
