Eurovision Song Contest Wiki

Aline Lahoud is a Lebanese singer who is active in the Lebanese theater scene and can sing in eight different languages.

Born as the daughter of singer Salwa al Katrib and producer Nahi Lahoud, Aline was exposed early on into the entertainment industry. Between 1997 and 1999, she studied singing and dramatic arts. Three years later, she received a BA in Communication Arts.

After winning the international prize at the Megahit-International Mediterranean Song Contest in Turkey, Aline was internally selected to represent Lebanon in its debut at the Eurovision Song Contest 2005 in Kyiv with the song Quand tout s'enfuit. However, when the Lebanese broadcaster couldn't guarantee that they would broadcast the Israeli entry, they withdrew three months after the deadline.

Since then, Aline performed in a number of musical comedies, as well as television series. In 2014, she auditioned for the third season of the French edition of The Voice, in which she got all four judges to turn for her. After joining Florent Pagny's team, she was eliminated in the knockout stages. Her season-mate, Amir, made it all the way to the finals as part of Team Jenifer and went on to represent France at the 2016 contest in Stockholm
