Lena Meyer-Landrut: More Than Eurovision

German singer, Lena Meyer-Landrut, returned to the Eurovision Song Contest in 2011 to represent her home country with the song Taken By A Stranger.

Lena was the artist who sang the winning Eurovision song at the 2010 Contest, with Satellite becoming one of the most successful tracks the competition has produced. Her return caused much chatter among the Contest's fans, as she became one of the few winning singers to take part for a second time, hoping to emulate Johnny Logan's two wins for Ireland during the 1980s.

Here, we trace Lena's career since her 2010 win and take a look at her song featured in the 2011 Eurovision Song Contest.
