Sooo, one of our top stars Kameliq finally joins FSC! Her song - You leave stains:
Kameliq - one of the most provocative and constant chalga singers in Bulgaria. She's been around since the early ages of Pop-Folk, making new hit songs every year and never complaining or producing scandals with her producers - the mighty Payner company. Only recently she complained about the newer singers, who are fake and cannot sing, therefore sing only on playbacks, never live. She had mostly Andrea in mind. She said, that singers, who depend only on silicone for their careers are ruining the chalga genre in Bulgaria. Well, not that she doesn't have silicone or doesn't rely on nakedness, but at least she does it in a more elegant way, and yes, she sings live on SOME of her performances - Za tebe shte umra (I'll die for you) , Falshiva koja (Fake skin) , maybe here Kato jiva rana (Like a fresh wound) and here Strelkite spirat (The clock stops - something for the ballad lovers). Not when she's on a big TV though - Ostavqsh petna, supposedly live version
What I find the real killer of the chalga genre though is how most of the songs are stolen from Serbia, Greece, or other countries. Kameliq herself doesn't pay attention to that, especially knowing that her biggest hits were stolen. But as most fans say - who the f--k cares if the song is original or sung life, when it's so good?!
Kameliq Vladimirova Veskova was born 10th January, 1971 in the town of Chiprovci. At the age of 11 she's the main vocalist of the school choir (big deal, Chiprovci hardly offers any competition). In 1994 she enters the public space by winning Miss Chiprovci and then Miss Montana. That qualifies her to compete for Miss Bulgaria, where she becomes 6th. She becomes an advertising face for a big company and sings in pubs and at weddings in the meantime. She sings mainly greek and serbian hits, showing her love for her childhood idol Lepa Brena even then. 1996 she goes as a vocal of a band to sing in Switzerland, mainly in serbian pubs. 1997 she comes back in Bulgaria and goes to Payner company, where she still remains. Her first song was Grqh li e tova (cover from Ceca Velickovic). Her first big hit was Zashto povqrvah (Why did I believe) in 1999. It became a classic, respected even today, and it's what helped her first album "Fire girl" from 1998 sell 90 000 copies (enormous ammount, considering the genre and the country). However another song of hers, which came shortly after, made her a truly successful chalga star, the cover of the serbian Leba Brena's Luda za tobom - Luda po tebe. It was announced as the winner of the award "Cover song of the decade" in 2008 and even today, almost a decade after the song's release, it's a must-play for every party in Bulgaria and every party-boy or girl knows the lyrics at least of the refrain by heart. She had many more hit songs over the years (I'm really having a hard time choosing what's the best of the best to put only a few here (yeah, I know I already cheated and put some of these on the live versions above
brace youselves, I'm beginning from the old ones and advancing slowly to the newer ones) - Ogyn momice (Fiery girl) , Nqma shega (Ya habibi) (There's no joke (Ya habibi)) , Ti si vinoven (It's your fault) , Iskash da se vyrna (You want me back, feat. Sakis Coucos) , Znam, nqkoi den (I know, some day) , Ti ela (You come) etc.
We'll now take a break from her legendary songs to appreciate some other interesting endeavors she's had in her long and fruitful career. She recently agreed to be the host in a humoristic talk show, connected to VIP Brother (Big Brother with VIPs), where she is largely successful. In an edition where the popular with his non-sense speeches prof. Vuchkov is a special guest, she receives more than a million of viewers, which equals more than 1/7th of the population of Bulgaria. A few years before that she shoots for Playboy, as a responce to the huge publi interest in her. The red circle was put there by me, because I don't want my post deleted, but you can easily find the uncensored photo, among with many more with her brests with google
And among her most recent hits: Useshtam te oshte (I still feel you) , Orgasm (stolen from Sakis Rouvas) , Cherna kryv (Black blood, the video was released well before the world knew Lady Gaga) and her latest song, which because of its being stolen, scared some people that Kameliq might abdicate from representing us in April - Kak da te zabravq (How do I forget you)
And of course, how do we forget (answer - we don't!) Kameliq's victory in Remix Song Contest 2 - with a nice differential between her and the second song, the lovely remix of the adorable song Zaleza i zorata - Watch a fan video of what 8 countries chose as the best among 16 amazing dance tunes
Now all we can do is eagerly await her result on FSC.
