I went to secondary school and half of Sixth Form with Lisa Andreas, who represented Cyprus in the Eurovision Song Contest 2004 with 'Stronger Every Minute'! She was in my form from Year 8-11, and then in my AS Music Tech class. I always remember watching the semifinal, and waiting eagerly to see if Lisa had made it into the final... after they FINALLY announced that Cyprus had gotten through, my best friend phoned me and we were practically squealing down the phone with excitement XD
She got fifth place in the final!
So, yeah. She's not massively famous (yet), but I still think it's majorly cool, especially since I love the Eurovision so much!
