Paula Mitrache (born June 14, 1977), known by the stage name Haiducii (Romanian pronunciation: [hajˈdut͡ʃij]), is a Romanian singer, model and actress.
Haiducii's debut record was "Dragostea Din Tei" (originally composed and released by O-Zone) released in January 2004, which made a strong dance impact, jumping immediately to the top of sales and airplay in Italy. The single remained in the Top Spot beyond 10 weeks, being already Gold in the first two weeks of release and, today, is a Platinum disc. Haiducii's version has been published in Germany, Austria, Benelux, Switzerland, Italy, France, Spain, Mexico, Czech Republic, and counts beyond 1 million copies sold in all Europe.
In December 2005, Haiducii released a new single: "More 'N' More (I Love You)". It charted well in Italy for some time, remaining in the Top 20 three months after its release. The music video premiered early in March 2006 and features Haiducii with five male dancers and special effects.
