Ivri Lider is one of the most successful & esteemed Israeli pop artists. This bashful young musician has become a superstar & the "official" spokesman of a generation he calls "the new people of Israel".. A gifted songwriter, composer, producer, actor & poet, Ivri has written, composed & produced pop hits on platinum selling albums & sold-out live shows in Israel. His fourth album, Ze Lo Oto Davar (It's not the Same) is an international hit. Ivri has decided to be open & upfront about his gay lifestyle, an admission that was met with much warmth & support from his fan base.
I guess I have a thing about hot Israeli recording artists, as I featured a post about Oren Lavie on May 9th (check it out!). I didn't think much of the Katy Perry song- I Kissed A Girl, ubiquitous for several months. I am being won over by the song's charms, especially in this fun & sexy cover version. Yummy young man, & very talented.
