Nadia Oleksandrivna Meikher-Granovskaya (Ukrainian: Наді́я Олекса́ндрівна Ме́йхер-Грано́вська; Russian: Надежда Александровна Ме́йхер-Грано́вская, Nadezhda Aleksandrovna Meikher-Granovskaya; born 10 April 1982), also known as Nadia Meikher and Nadezhda Granovskaya, is a Ukrainian singer-songwriter, actress, poet, television personality and fashion designer.
Meikher came to regional media attention as a member of the girl group Nu Virgos (VIA Gra), whose member she was in three different occasions, including in its "golden era" period from 2003 and 2004. Following her departure from the group in 2006, Meikher began working as a television host on STB. In 2014, she participated in the Russian version of Your Face Sounds Familiar and launched her solo musical career releasing the single "Delo ne v tele".
Meikher was born Nadia Oleksandrovna Meikher in the village Zbruchivka, Volochysk Raion (then Ukrainian SSR, Soviet Union, now Ukraine), to father Oleksandr Pavlovich Meikher and mother Galina Anatoliivna Granovska. She is of Jewish and German descent through her father, and of Ukrainian descent through her mother. When Meikher was in school, her mother left for Italy to work there, while Meikher stayed with her father. Her family then moved to Khmelnytskyi, where she studied music and dance.
Meikher then moved to Kyiv to study English at the Borys Grinchenko Kyiv University, and also began performing in a local theatre. In 2000, while performing in a theatre in Khmelnytskyi, she was noticed by Valery Meladze, who introduced her to producers Konstantin Meladze and Dmitriy Kostyuk, who invited her to move to Kyiv and join the girl group Nu Virgos.
