Danica Radojičić (Serbian pronunciation: [dǎnitsa nîna rǎdoːjtʃitɕ]; Serbian: Даница Радојчић; born 5 August 1989), professionally known by her nickname Nina (Нина), is a Serbian singer. She represented Serbia in the Eurovision Song Contest 2011 with the song "Čaroban", composed by Kristina Kovač, and placed the fourteenth in the final.

Nina was born as Danica Radojčić on 5 August 1989 in Belgrade (Yugoslavia then, Serbia now). She has an older brother, Stefan. Nina began playing the piano aged six, and also attended dance classes. She finished both elementary and secondary musical school, but she entered pharmacy at the University of Belgrade. She has performed in various clubs with her band "Legal Sex Department". Nina cites "Duffy, Muse, and other pop and alternative artists" as her major influences.

On 19 January 2011, Radio Television of Serbia (RTS) announced that the three members of the Kovač family — Kornelije, Aleksandra and Kristina — would compose three songs that would compete to represent Serbia in the Eurovision Song Contest 2011. On 16 February, it was confirmed that Kristina Kovač had chosen Nina, then an unknown singer, to perform her song "Čaroban". Kovač discovered Nina thanks to YouTube. On 26 February, Nina was chosen for the Serbian entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 2011 in Düsseldorf, Germany, with more than 15,000 SMS votes.
