BIOGRAPHY
Tamta Goduadze, known simply as Tamta, is a Georgian-Greek pop singer.
When Tamta was 22, she and her family moved to Greece, where she decided to enter the singing competition Super Idol, a reality television show produced and presented by Mega Channel and based on the British show Pop Idol. She managed to take second place in the finals.
In January 2007, Hellenic Radio and Television (ERT), announced Tamta's participation in national final to be the Greek representative in the Eurovision Song Contest 2007. She placed third of the three participants, and Sarbel went to the Contest.
In June 2008, Tamta said in an interview that she would like to represent Cyprus in the Eurovision Song Contest 2009. Rumors also said that CYBC had been in contact with her since May. Greek media outlets also demanded that ERT choose Tamta to represent Greece in the Eurovision Song Contest 2009 following suspicions of favoritism from Eastern Bloc countries in 2008 where Kalomoira finished in 3rd place. The rumors did not materialize and ERT chose Sakis Rouvas for the 2009 Contest.
In 2010 she co-stars in the Greek rendition of the musical “Rent”.
In 2014 and 2015 Tamta managed to act as a judge for the first 2 seasons of “X-Factor” in Georgia. In 2016 she was a judge in the Greek edition of the same show. Her hit singles in Greece are numerous through the last 12 years.
