Happy birthday Lena!

It's German singer Lena Meyer-Landrut's birthday, but we love her so she gets first-name privileges on our blog.


We all fell in love with her last year because she was so darn cute, and this year, she's grown up to be hot:






Sadly, her entry at the 2011 Eurovision Song Contest didn't do nearly as well:



For what it's worth, I think it's a good, clever pop song, but in the Eurovision environment I suppose one expects a bit more bombast, and we found ourselves waiting for the song to take off. When it didn't, it felt a bit anticlimactic. Also, I think most of Europe fell in love with her happy, quirky stage personality, and when that was missing, it sort of contributed to the anticlimax.



But anyway, not only is she the most beautiful ESC winner from this millennium, she also won with the best song. Happy birthday Lena!
