In 2010, right after her elimination from the X Factor, Adamou secured a recording contract with Sony Music Greece.

Apart from singles for her own discography, Adamou has released songs for movies such as Barbie in A Mermaid Tale and Barbie: A Fashion Fairytale.[5][6] In 2015, she starred in the original musical Barbarella: the 80's Musical.[7][8][9][10]
Influenced by Beyoncé, Whitney Houston, Elena Paparizou, Adamou was often described as the "Pop Queen" or the "Teen Idol" in Greece and was since her participation in The X Factor called as the "Next Big Thing".[11][12] Her first extended play was certified gold for selling over 60,000 copies in Greece while the second holiday extended play was certified platinum for selling over 15,000 copies in Portugal.[13][14] Since 2010, Adamou had several nominations in both the MAD Video Music Awards and the Madame Figaro Awards. However she has currently won five awards. She was awarded as the best Cypriot woman singer in 2010 and 2012.[15][16] She was also awarded as the best singer in Cyprus in 2012 which was the first time that the award was given.[17] In 2011, she received the award for the best video clip urban for her work with Stavento in "San Erthi I Mera".[18] Adamou has also participated in several charities such as the campaign "Everything I Can", for the prevention of cervical cancer.[19] She was also appointed as the Young Ambassador for the rights of the children by the HFC-UNCRC Policy Center.[20]
Biography and career
Early life
Ivi Adamou was born on 24 November 1993 in Ayia Napa, Famagusta, to a Greek Cypriot father and a Bulgarian mother.[21][22] She is one of the three children of her family; she has two sisters, one older and one younger.[23][24] At the age of 9, she got on the stage for first time and participated in a music competition where she competed with the song "Kaka Paidia" by Anna Vissi and managed to win the competition.[25] Since that competition, she started music theory, vocal lessons, and piano which allowed her to acquire the suitable skills to win prizes in several local song competitions.[25]
At the age of 15 and during her second year at the lyceum, Adamou auditioned for The X Factor and as she managed to make it through the live shows, she had to be travelling from Cyprus to Greece.[26] Following her participation in the second series of the Greek version of the X Factor she signed a contract with Sony Music Greece and since then she lives in Greece, where she studied at the Panteion University. Even though she had started a musical career, she decided to study sociology.[1][27] She graduated and received her diploma in 2015.[2][28]
2009–10: The X Factor
In 2009–2010, she took part in the second series of the Greek version of The X Factor, ending in sixth place.[29] She lists Beyoncé as her biggest influence, as well as Christina Aguilera and Whitney Houston. Almost all the songs she performed were in the English language with only one of them being in the Greek language.
Adamou sang "Just Dance" on the first live show and she received positive reviews by the judges.[30][31] In the second and third live show, she sang P!nk's "Just Like A Pill"[32] and Kelly's "Because of You"[33][34] respectively and she once again received positive reviews with the latter one being honoured as one of the best performances until then.[35] However, with her performance of "Papa Don't Preach" in the fourth live show she received negative reviews, with Nikos Mouratidis stating that the song didn't suit to her voice.[36][37] For the following three live shows, she performed "When I Grow Up",[38] "Hurt"[39] and "Halo"[40] and despite her unsuccessful performance in the fourth live show, they were positively reviewed by the judges. On the eighth live she performed her first Greek song, "Hristougenna" along with "All I Want For Christmas Is You".[41][42]
On the ninth live show Adamou performed "Celebration", making it the second song of Madonna that she performed.[43][44] She also had a duet with her team mate, Nini and they performed Anna Vissi's "Dodeka".[43][45] On the tenth live show she performed "I Love Rock 'n' Roll" and even though she received mostly positive reviews, Mouratidis had negative opinion on the performance just like he did on her previous performance.[46] On the eleventh live show, she performed another song from the Pussycat Dolls, "Hush Hush".[47][48] For first time, Adamou was in bottom two with Hovig but she was saved by the judges.[47] In the final showdown, she chose to perform "I Have Nothing", the song she sang in the bootcamp.[47][49] On the twelfth live show, she performed for second time, a song from Christina Aguilera.[50][51]
Even though she was one of the favourites to win, she was eliminated during the twelfth week, where she came at bottom two against her team mate Nini Shermandini.[50] She was voted to stay in by George Levendis and Nikos Mouratidis and Nini was voted by Katerina Gagaki and George Theofanous. Even though it was tied, Theofanous' vote counted twice and therefore Adamou was eliminated.[52] After her elimination, a "fight" started between Sony and Theofanous while the record label wanted Adamou to return because of the fake results, as the media stated.[53][54][55][56]

While Adamou was not a finalist in The X Factor with her sixth-place finish, she did manage to obtain a record deal with Sony Music Greece, an affiliate of the show.

On 13 April 2010, Adamou's first collaboration was released through the MAD TV; she was featured on Stavento's song "San Erthi I Mera" which became a summer hit in Greece and Cyprus.[59][60] In less than three months, the song got more than 3 million views in the original video which was later taken down which made it one of the most viewed Greek music videos at that time.[61] The song stayed in the top five of the Greek Airplay Chart for 20 weeks, and sold 60 thousand legal downloads. Her second single, "Sose Me", was released on 27 April 2010 with its video clip premiering on 5 May 2010.[62] A few days later, the trailers for Adamou's debut album were revealed.

On 14 June 2010, Adamou performed at the 2010 MAD Video Music Awards with the band OtherView, a cover of the song "Last Kiss", originally by Ishtar.[63]
The X Factor was like a school for me. It helped me get directed and decide on what genre I will continue working on for my career.
