Dragana Todorović (Serbian Cyrillic: Драгана Тодоровић; née Stanojević (Станојевић); born 15 March 1974), known by her stage name Jana (Јана), is a Serbian turbo-folk and pop folk singer.
Biography
Jana was born in the village of Babin Most, near the city of Priština, Yugoslavia in 1974. She has two siblings: a brother Dejan and a sister Danijela.
Her career started at the age of fourteen, in 1988, when she visited a well-known kafana in the town of Obilić one night with her parents and brother (who played the accordion). She had worn a white overcoat and pink hat. During dinner, she took the microphone, got a chair, and, being shy, turned her back against the audience and started singing "Što me pitaš" (Why Are You Asking Me) by Šemsa Suljaković to roaring applause.
After finishing the Stevan Mokranjac music academy in her hometown, she recorded an album in 1992 that sold very few copies and flopped. She went back to performing in kafanas throughout Kosovo, then took a short break from singing due to the disappointment of her last album, working as a music educator.
