Ana Guerra (born 18 February 1994) is a Spanish singer.[1] She gained national recognition when she took part in series nine of the reality television talent competition Operación Triunfo, where she finished in fifth place.[2][3]

Career

Guerra auditioned for series 9 of Operación Triunfo and was selected to enter the show's "Academy" on 23 October 2017. On the 12th "gala" or live show on 22 January 2018, it was decided by the public that she would be one of the five finalists of the series.

In Operación Triunfo, Guerra also competed to represent Spain in the Eurovision Song Contest 2018 with the entries "El remedio", which she performed solo, and "Lo malo", which she performed in a duet with Aitana. The latter song, originally written in English language by Jess Morgan and Will Simms and adapted into Spanish language by Brisa Fenoy, finished in third place, but went on to become a number-one hit on the Spanish Singles Chart and received a double platinum certification.[4] The single reached number one on the Spanish PROMUSICAE during three weeks.[5][6][7][8][9] The former entry, "El remedio",[10] which was authored by Nabález, was released as a single in April 2018.[11]

On 6 July 2018, Guerra released a single with Juan Magán titled "Ni la hora".[12] The single debuted at number two on the Spanish Singles Chart, and its official music video got more than 4.5 million visits on YouTube in five days.[13][14]

Personal life and influences

Guerra cites Juan Luis Guerra, Michael Bublé and Luis Miguel as her influences.[15] Ana also plays the Western concert flute.[16][17]

Guerra was in a relationship with Javier Luis Delgado, better known as Jadel,[18] who won the talent show El Número Uno in 2012.[19] They broke up in June 2018.[20]
