Bio
BLEONA, the Albanian pop icon, redefines the word “DIVA” in her uncontainable rise to global stardom.
She is the most influential pop star of her generation while being one of the most influential cultural icons of today.
BLEONA broke the cultural mold of Albania by encouraging Albanians to be open minded. In doing so, she's one of the pioneers of the female empowerment movement in Albania, and a strong supporter of the gay community.
In 2009 she came to the United States in with a vision to merge her career into a global stage without the benefits of entering through the American system of the music industry. Bleona had to pave the road with her bare hands and make a success for herself without a big team, and without any American corporation’s help or guidance.
Today she is a multiple award-winning, multi-lingual recording artist, having sold more than 7 million records worldwide, graced over forty magazine covers, and performed for millions of fans — all while operating as a completely independent artist.
Her powerful vocals, charmingly brash persona, and reputation as an electrifying performer, have lifted her to the top of the Billboard music charts. In the past few years alone, Bleona has broken the Top Ten Billboard Dance Club Songs chart most recently with her #1 Hit “I Don’t Need Your Love” and #3 Hit “Take You Over”.
BLEONA is one of the stars of the new upcoming series, Paper Empire, and her new album, produced by Grammy Award winning producer and icon, Timbaland will be releasing during the spring of 2024.
A beloved luminary, drawing record crowds of up to 70,000 in her native Albania, she continues to perform to consistent sold-out , standing room only shows.
Through it all, Bleona has embraced the thrill of playing by her own rules, while at the same time respecting her craft and embracing her ever-growing fan base.
BLEONA’s native creative ability has transformed her into a triple-threat phenomenon that has presented no limits to her larger-than-life talents.
