Personal life
Golbi was born as Diana Golovanov in Moscow,[1] Russia. When she turned 4, her parents decided to make Aliyah to Israel,[2] and moved to the city of Holon,[1] where Golbi and her family live until today. Already in her childhood, Golbi fell in love with the stage. She studied theatre in an American studio, and when she was 12, she went to perform in a big theatre in St. Petersburg.[1]
Golbi also loves football. She played on a girl team in Petah Tikva, coached by her father, even though she did prefer performing on stage. Golbi and her friends formed a band two years ago, called HaRusim (Hebrew: הרוסים). HaRusim is a double meaning: it means both "The Ruined Ones" and "The Russian Ones" in Hebrew, since the members of the band are all Russian originally.[1]
Kokhav Nolad 8
During 2010, Golbi went to audition for the eighth season of Kokhav Nolad. She impressed the judges and was accepted. In the night of September 4, 2010, she won 53% of the votes and beat Idan Amedi, and was therefore crowned as the winner of Kokhav Nolad 8. She won a scholarship of 240,000 shekels, and a production contract from the well known music producer Louis Lahav.[2]
