A Latvian (though ethnically Russian) singer competing for Latvia, her performance of I wanna wowed the crowd and the voters at the contest, not only with a boppy tune but with the lithe Ms. Naumova gradually stripping down from a gender-bending white suit and hat through several configurations into a long red dress. She also wrote the music and co-wrote the lyrics for the tune.
Naumova is apparently a popular performer in Latvia, singing a broad range of music ranging from pop, through musical theatre[?] jazz, has recorded several albums (her latest in French), and also possesses a law degree from the University of Latvia.
Naumova co-hosted the 2003 contest.
