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 studio albums Tanja Savić (2008) and Sestre po suzama (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]
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 EPStranci, 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 for November 9, 2024.[9]
In 2009, having initially met him three years earlier in California, Savić began dating the Queensland-based Serbian-Australian entrepreneur Dušan Jovaničević.[11] The December 2010 birth of the couple's son Maksim precipitated their decision to get married during early 2011.[12][11] A year later, in June 2012, they had another son, Đorđe.[11]
The couple separated in 2020, followed by a highly publicized custody battle, in which Savić accused her then-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.[13]
