Early life

Susana Dzhamaladinova was born in Osh, Kirghiz SSR, to a Muslim Crimean Tatar father and an Armenian mother. [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] Her Crimean Tatar ancestors were forcibly resettled from Crimea to the central Asian republic under Joseph Stalin during World War II, although her own relatives fought on the Soviet side. [10] In 1989 her family returned to Crimea.[ citation needed ] Her maternal ancestors are Armenians from Nagorno-Karabakh region. [11] They were well-to-do peasants until her great-grandfather's land was confiscated and he was exiled to Osh where he changed his Armenian name to make it sound more Russian.[ citation needed ]

She grew up in a family of musicians — her mother worked as a teacher at a music school, and her father was a conductor by education. [12]

Her parents divorced for about four years so that her mother could purchase a house in Crimea for the family under her maiden name. During this period, Soviet authorities did not allow ethnic Crimean Tatars, like her father, to purchase property in Crimea.[ citation needed ]

Career

2010–2015: Early work

Jamala has been fond of music since her early childhood. She made her first professional recording at the age of nine, singing 12 folk and children's Crimean Tatar songs. She entered the Simferopol Music College [13] and later graduated from Tchaikovsky National Music Academy of Ukraine as an opera singer, but preferred a career in pop music.

[14] The song was a crowd favorite and Jamala herself managed to land a spot in the finals of the competition. [14] However, she later decided to withdraw from the competition. [15] On 12 April 2011, she released her debut studio album For Every Heart through Moon Records Ukraine. On 8 November 2012, she released "Ya Lyublyu Tebya" (Russian : «Я Люблю́ Тебя́», English: "I Love You") as the lead single from her second studio album All or Nothing.

Jamala successfully represented Ukraine in the Eurovision Song Contest 2016 with the song "1944". [16] The song is about the deportation of the Crimean Tatars in 1944 and particularly about her great-grandmother, who lost her daughter while being deported to Central Asia. [13] [17] [18] Jamala wrote the song's lyrics in 2014. In the second semi-final of the contest, Jamala performed 14th and was one of ten participants who qualified for the grand final. It was announced later that she placed second, scoring 287 points, and won the televoting with 152 points [19] On 14 May 2016, Jamala won the competition with 534 points. [20] Jamala's song was considered by Russian media and lawmakers to be critical of the Russian annexation of Crimea in 2014 and the "ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine" in Donbas. [21] [22]

After her Eurovision Song Contest victory, she was awarded the title People's Artist of Ukraine by then-Ukrainian president Petro Poroshenko. [23] She has then continued to release new music, including "I Believe in U", which she performed at the Eurovision Song Contest 2017 as an interval act, along with "Zamanyly".

On 17 May 2016, Poroshenko announced that the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry would be nominating Jamala as a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador. [24]

On 12 October 2018, Jamala released her fifth studio album, Kryla . The title track was released as the first single on 21 March 2018. She had previously performed the track as the interval act for the 2018 Ukrainian national selection for the Eurovision Song Contest, Vidbir.

In 2022, she appeared in season 26 of the Polish TV show Taniec z Gwiazdami (Dancing with the Stars). [25]

Jamala performed "1944" during the flag parade in the final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2023, alongside fellow past Ukrainian entrants Go_A, Tina Karol, and Verka Serduchka. [26] One year later, she was the Ukrainian spokesperson at the Eurovision Song Contest 2024.

Personal life

On 26 April 2017, Jamala married Bekir Suleimanov. [27] [28] Their relationship became known in September 2016, when she appeared with him at the Manhattan Short Film Festival. [27] The couple married in the Kyiv Islamic Cultural Center using the traditional wedding ceremony Nikah. [27] Suleimanov had recently graduated from the Physics and Mathematics Department of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv and is an activist of the Muslim [29] Crimean Tatar community. [27]

In November 2017, Jamala announced that she and Suleimanov were expecting their first child together. [30] On 27 March 2018 their son Emir-Rahman Seit-Bekir ogly Suleimanov was born. [31]

Jamala is fluent in Ukrainian, Crimean Tatar, Russian and English.

In February 2022, amidst the Russian invasion of Ukraine, she and her two children left Ukraine and initially took refuge in Romania, before eventually landing in Turkey. [32] [33]

After February 24, 2022, the celebrity participated in the GIDNA project from Future for Ukraine Charity Foundation. While reading the votes at the Eurovision Song Contest 2024, she announced that she was expecting her third child.
