Lilit Hovhannisyan (Armenian: Լիլիթ Հովհաննիսյան, born 7 December 1987 in Yerevan, Armenia), is an Armenian pop singer.

Early life

Lilit Hovhannisyan was born on 7 December 1987 in Yerevan, Armenia. Since she was a child, she wanted to be a dress-designer and she did her best to achieve this goal. However, she later decided to follow a career in music, as she had shown talent musically but up to that point she had been too shy to reveal it. Lilit's first step in the musical career was through the Hay Superstar show, where she came fourth. Lilit’s life-turning encounter with music happened just because her father insisted on trying her abilities in the sphere of music. Lilit’s first step in this amazing world was marked by a great contest she took part for the first time in her whole life. This new road was full of ups and downs for Lilit, but she was strong enough to overcome all the obstacles on her way, and prove that she has her say in music. In 2002, Lilit left the music school after Jrbashian, the department of piano. Afterwards, in 2005, she graduated from the department of vocal of the State Song Theatre of Armenia’s college. Later on, in 2011, Lilit graduated from the Yerevan State Musical Conservatory (YSC) after Komitas, the department of jazz-vocal.

Lilit’s unique and charming voice spiced with her manner of singing, extraordinary hairstyle, optical glasses and her winning smile completes ideally her stunning image. This is exactly how charming Lilit is captured by her audience and earns their great love and attention once and forever.

She is the cousin of Twitch superstar GamerMomoe.[1]
