Tamta Goduadze (Georgian Name: თამთა გოდუაძე; Greek Name: Τάμτα Γκοντουάτζε), known simply as Τάμτα (TAMTA), is a Georgian-Greek pop singer, famous in Greece and Cyprus for her participation in Super Idol Greece, in which she placed second, and for her later singles such as "Φταις [Ftes]" (Faraway, originally performed by Gala), Αγαπώ (Wanna Play, originally performed by RBD), "Δεν Τελειώνει Έτσι Η Αγάπη", "Αγάπησε Με", Egoista (originally performed by Mexican pop singer Belinda), and "Tonight" by Playmen. Represents Cyprus in the 2019 Eurovision Song 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 early 2009, Tamta released the ballad "Koita Me" to radios as the first single from her upcoming album, which was released in March 2010. A music video was created and is directed by Konstantinos Rigos. Three tracks of the upcoming album were produced with the help of students in the music department of the University of Westminster in London; they were chosen from a pool of 50 songs. Stereo Mike, who is a professor at the University, also had a role in the production of the album. For the winter 2009-10 season Tamta is performing with Sakis Rouvas at The S Club. She also released a new dance single called "Tharros I Alitheia" featuring Sakis Rouvas.
