Lena Meyer-Landrut, known professionally as Lena, is a German singer-songwriter who represented her country at the Eurovision Song Contest 2010 in Oslo and the Eurovision Song Contest 2011 in Düsseldorf.

She won the 2010 contest with the song Satellite, making her the first German winner in 28 years since Nicole's win in 1982 and the first of the Big Four countries to take the title since the rule was introduced in 2000. The following year, she came back with the song Taken By A Stranger which finished 10th. Lena was the third previous winner to defend the title on home ground, and the first in over 50 years.

To date she has released four studio albums, all of which have peaked in the Top 2 of the German charts.
