The limelight is nothing new for Noa. An established popstar and actress who’s had her own TV series, Noa is also a judge on 'Music School' and 'Israel’s Got Talent', where she’s been known to treat the audience to spontaneous performances.

Not wanting to waste any time, she released her debut single at the age of 14 and signed with Atlantic Records when she was 18. Since then, she’s racked up enough awards and trophies to fill a cabinet twice over. Among them, ‘Best Israeli Act’ at the MTV Europe Music Awards.

In the summer of 2022, Noa performed in front of 35,000 people in Tel Aviv in her own big park concert - a first for any young Israeli artist.

The Israeli broadcaster was so sure about choosing Noa to represent the country, that their Eurovision selection committee announced her participation 8 months before the official deadline for entries.
