Possibly the biggest Serbian pop-folk act of all time. Possibly.
Not a big fan of the Serbian pop-folk scene? Then you probably haven’t heard of Jelena Karleusa, eight studio albums that have been big hits in Serbia, Montenegro, Macedonia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Bulgaria.
Jelena, 30, also known as ‘JK’ and ‘Rainbow Killer’, married Serbian Werder Bremen striker Duško Tošić earlier this year, and Bild have informed us, albeit in German, that she just gave birth to their first daughter, Atina.
Jelena, who is seven years older than her husband, says the birth of her daughter is the biggest event in her life, and Tošić claims his new fathering duties are ‘pure motivation’ to make him a better footballer.
Spoiler bonus: Check out Jelena’s very own YouTube channel here, and sample her delightful take on Europop below…

Balkan music is just awesome for those with the wit to sample it.So many stars unknown in the “West”.Take for example Djina Stoeva or Teodora of Bulgaria.
