To make herself known, the singer took part in many competitions from a young age, but it was the “Karaoke on the Maidan” project in the early 2000s that gave her recognition – these archived videos are still going viral on the Internet.
In 2021, Ukrainian singer Natalya Mogilevskaya, who was the host of the show “Chance”, will appear on the channel “Ukraine” recalled that Tina Karol wanted to get into this project three times, but she was never able to win on the “Karaoke on the Maidan” show.
Despite the defeats, the artist continued to move towards her dream.
And already in 2005 she was already so popular that she combined the role of a singer with the duties of co-host of the Ukrainian showman Yuri Gorbunov on the project “Dancing with the Stars” on “1+1”.
Few people probably remember Tina Karol like in this photo taken during the filming of the show.
In 2026, Tina Karol already represented Ukraine at the Eurovision international song contest in Athens (Greece). With the song Show me your love she took seventh place.
In 2023, commenting on Instagram about her image and her performance, the artist noted that during this time she had undergone an incredible transformation.
“Transformation of the mental body, work on oneself, whatever you want to call it,” the singer emphasized then.
In an interview with the channel M1 Music Tina Karol also admitted that she was embarrassed about her performance at Eurovision 2006.
“It was 2006. The beginning of my career… It’s not that I don’t like this performance, but I’m embarrassed. It’s so grotesque! It’s my inferiority complex,” she said.
Exactly 20 years have passed since then. The singer changed not only her hairstyle and style, but also radically worked on her figure. Now the 40-year-old artist looks like this.
According to Tina Karol, at the age of 40, what helps her look twice as young is not beauty injections, butneuroplasticity and the ability of the brain to change.
“This process allows us to learn, remember, recover from injury, adapt to new experiences and change behavior,” she said when asked about the secret of her youth.
