Tanja Savić (Serbian Cyrillic: Тања Савић; born 20 March 1985) is a Serbian singer.

Career

In 2004, Savić rose to prominence by competing on the first season of the singing competition show Zvezde Granda, where she ultimately placed as the second runner-up.^[1][2] Subsequently, she was signed to Grand Production, under which she released her debut album Tako mlada in 2005.^[2] The album, which was sold in 100,000 copies, spawned popular songs like "Tako mlada", "Minut ljubavi" and "Zašto me u obraz ljubiš".^[3] It was followed by the self-titled album in 2008 and Sestre po suzama in 2009, which included hit songs "Zlatnik", "Gde ljubav putuje" and "Sestre po suzama".^[3] Additionally, her songs "Suknjica" and "Gde ljubav putuje" were featured in the movies Guča! (2006) and Srpski ožiljci (2009), respectively.^[3]

In 2014, Savić participated in the second season of the competition show Tvoje lice zvuči poznato, winning in the ninth episode as Rihanna.^[4] After facing career setbacks due to living in Australia, Savić managed to revive her popularity by collaborating with rappers Corona and Rimski on the single "Oči boje viskija", released in November 2017.^[5][6] She continued working with the duo on her commercially successful EP Stranci, which was released in December 2019 through IDJTunes.^[7][8]

Upon the release of her fourth studio album, Lečim se životom, through Toxic Entertainment in June 2024, Savić also announced her first solo concert in the Belgrade Arena.^[9] The concert, held on 23 November, also celebrated twenty years of her career.^[10]

Personal life

Savić was born on 20 March 1985 in the village of Radinac near Smederevo, SR Serbia, SFR Yugoslavia.^[11]

In 2009, having initially met him three years earlier in California, Savić began dating the Queensland-based Serbian-Australian entrepreneur Dušan Jovaničević.^[12] The December 2010 birth of the couple's son Maksim precipitated their decision to get married during early 2011.^[13][12] A year later, in June 2012, they had another son, Đorđe.^[12]

The couple separated in 2020, followed by a highly-publicized custody battle, in which Savić accused her estranged husband of relocating their children to Australia against her will. In March 2021, she was reunited with her sons after almost a year of separation.^[14]
