Olivera Katarina, also previously known as Olivera Vu?o and Olivera ?aki?, is a Serbian actress, singer and writer. She was one of the leading stars of Yugoslav cinema in the 1960s and the 1970s, and is probably the best known for her performance in Aleksandar Petrovi?'s film I Even Met Happy Gypsies, which won the Grand Prix at the 1967 Cannes Film Festival. As a singer, Olivera Katarina has performed music of various genres, varying from Serbian traditional to pop music, and in numerous languages. Her version of "?elem, ?elem", which she performed in I Even Met Happy Gypsies, has been considered as one of the best rendition of that song ever recorded. [More at Wikipedia]
