Also known as Magdi, Magdolna Rúsza is a Serbian-born, Hungary-based pop singer, who -- albeit controversially -- was chosen in 2006 to represent Hungary in the 2007 Eurovision Song Contest, held that year in Helsinki. Magdi would make her first waves as a young competitor in the regional talent competition circuit (Ki Mit Tud and the 2004 Lira Pop Festival) and as singer for a group called Madness. Her appearance at the 2006 Megasztár competition -- and subsequent appearance on that show's finalist compilation -- made Rúsza a household name. In 2008, she found herself hitting the Top Ten on the Hungarian album charts with a live collection. ~ Chris True
