Sofia Christoforidou, an 18-year-old from Thessaloniki, captured the hearts of audiences and clinched the grand prize on The Voice of Greece.
The music competition final aired on Sunday night, January 19, and saw eight finalists compete for the top spot. The event featured all four coaches, each with two contestants in the running. In the grand finale, Fey Kross and Giannis Siachamis represented Elena Paparizou’s team, Evaxenia Anthoula and Sofia Christoforidou performed for Panos Mouzourakis’ team, Tilemachos Avrantas and Filippos Kokoromyti performed for Christos Mastoras’ team, and Panos Katsieris and Vangelis Zoulas represented Giorgos Mazonakis’ team.
In the end, Sofia Christoforidou and Vangelis Zoulas were the final two contestants. Ultimately, Sofia’s powerful performance and connection with the audience led her to victory. This marks Panos Mouzourakis’ team’s second consecutive win, and he humorously remarked, “I’ll be fired after the third one.”
