Our favorite Diva from Eurovision 2013, Esma – who performed with Lozano for FYR Macedonia – has been awarded “National Artist of the Year” in her home country.

Despite missing out on a place in the Eurovision Grand Final – Esma is being celebrated for her 55 years of musical entertainment in Macedonia. It is a strong reflection of the love and respect for the singer in her home country.

Esma’s career has seen her release 108 singles, 20 albums, and appear in 6 movies. I think you will agree that she is a worthy winner. Not to forget her humanitarian work throughout her career, this award should have come sooner for such a musical legend.
