In a terrible indictment of the state of pop music in this country, Niki (aka Kanal 2 weathergirl Kairit Tuhkanen) was awarded the title of Female Artist of the Year at last weekend's Estonian Music Awards, and also walked away with Album of the Year for Äike Päike. Then again, the super-talented Mari-Leen won last year, so at least the voting is consistent.Surprisingly, the singer herself - perhaps suspecting that people might scoff at the announcement - was quick to downplay her success, as reported by SL Õhtuleht. "I'm shocked," she told her audience of peers when she took to the podium. "I'm not a singer - I'm someone's project! There are plenty of us around, but we never last long." We can only hope so.

While I agree with you regarding the majority of Niki's songs, you can see her from another perspective in the video of "Siis, kui saabub päev". Can't help, but there she looks really, really hot! :)
Preaching to the wrong audience there, I'm afraid ;-)
