Sarit Hadad

Sarit Hadad (Hebrew: שרית חדד) (born September 20, 1978) is a popular Israeli singer. She comes from a musical family and was recognized as a child prodigy.

Sarit Hadad (born Sara Hodedtov) Hebrew: שרה חודדטוב) was born to Mountain Jews from Azerbaijan in a traditonal Jewish household. Sarit was the youngest of nine children with four older sisters and four older brothers. She began performing at the age of eight. She played the piano at a local club without telling her parents. [citation needed] Apart from classical piano, she taught herself to play other instruments, among them organ, guitar, accordion and a Middle Eastern drum called the darbuka. At the age of 15, she joined the Hadera Youth Band. When she was sixteen she was discovered by Avi Gueta who is still her manager today.

Her career as a pop singer has been highly successful, with many of her songs topping the Israeli charts. Israeli Television selected her to represent Israel in the Eurovision Song Contest 2002. The song, Nadlik Beyakhad Ner (Light A Candle) in Hebrew: נדליק ביחד נר), came in 12th place.

In December 2006, Sarit Hadad drew crowds in New York, Miami and Los Angeles with her "Sing with Sarit" tour. [1]

In July 2007, Madonna revealed that she is a fan of Sarit Hadad, and enjoys listening to her music when dining at a kosher restaurant near her home.[2]

On Sarit Hadad's official website it states that she never performs on Shabbat (Between sundown on Friday and sundown on Saturday) or religious Jewish holidays.
