Cleopatra Stratan was born on October 6, 2002. She is a singer from Moldova. Cleopatra became famous at a very young age. Her album La vârsta de trei ani ("At the age of 3"), released in 2006, was a huge success.

She holds some amazing records! Cleopatra is known as the youngest artist to earn a lot of money. She was also the youngest artist to win an MTV award. Plus, her song "Ghiță" was the first song by such a young artist to reach number one on the Romanian Singles Chart. In 2011, Cleopatra and her family moved to Pipera. On her 18th birthday, Cleopatra shared that she was engaged to Edward Sanda, who is also a singer.

Her Amazing Start

Cleopatra's dad, Pavel Stratan, was recording music in a studio. Three-year-old Cleopatra was there with him. Suddenly, she picked up a microphone and started singing along! Everyone was surprised by how good she was. They decided to record the song with Cleopatra singing the main parts.

People even suggested she should be in the Guinness Book of World Records. This is because she was so young when she performed on stage and recorded her own album. Some of her songs have been translated into English and Spanish. Her album La vârsta de 3 ani and the song "Ghiță" were even released in Japan!

Her first album, La vârsta de trei ani, sold over 150,000 copies in Romania by the summer of 2006. This made it a "double platinum disk," which means it sold a huge number of copies! In December 2006, her dad said she would not sing publicly until her next album came out. At that time, "Ghiță" was her most popular song.

In 2008, Cleopatra released her second album, La vârsta de 5 ani. It included the popular song "Zunea-Zunea". On December 13, 2008, her younger brother, Cezar, was born. Cleopatra even helped choose his name! In 2009, she released her third album, Colinde magice. This album featured traditional Romanian Christmas carols, called colinde. Three years later, in 2012, Cleopatra released her fourth album, Melodii Pentru Copii. However, it did not become as famous as her first three albums.

Cleopatra was also chosen by Cartoon Network to provide the voice for the character Robotgirl in the Robotboy cartoon series.
