Faradina Mohd. Nadzir (born 7 February, 1985), also known as Dina Nadzir or Dina, is a Malaysian singer, radio announcer, actress, television presenter, and businesswoman. She was the runner up for the first season of Malaysian Idol. After discovering her singing voice at the age of 16, she appeared on the series approximately three years later in 2004. She is the two-time winner of the “Annual World Championships of Performing Arts” competition in Los Angeles.

Early life

Dina was born on February 7, 1985, in Johor Bahru and the only daughter among all the brothers. Dina did not like dolls as a child. When her mother bought a Barbie doll for her, she threw it into the toilet. Dina was fond of children’s rifles and soldier figurines. This is because she was raised among boys and not because she is a tomboy.

Dina also did not like makeup and pretty clothes as she is more comfortable wearing T-shirts and jeans. She did not like shopping because it is hard to find clothes that fit her European-sized body.

When she was young, Dina’s ambition is to become Malaysia’s first female pilot. However, due to there being others who have done so, she decided to change it. A music fan, Dina plays piano and drum during her secondary school years at Sultan Ibrahim Girls' Secondary School, Johor Bahru.

Career

Dina auditioned for the Malaysian reality television show Akademi Fantasia during its first season but failed. After AF, Dina participated in the Bintang RTM programme.

Dina is currently living in Kuala Lumpur and is studying Diploma in Arts Management at Universiti Teknologi MARA. Between her studies and performing, Dina was willing to arrange a time to release her first album, Cinta Datang Lagi, in October 2005. Her winning runner-up for Malaysian Idol 2004 truly became a turning point in Dina’s life.

In 2012, she became a radio announcer at Era FM in its “Pilih Hit Era” segment. In 2015, she replaced Adifashala in the “SATE” segment with Shahrol Shiro and Tauke Jambu for a while.

Starting 4 January 2021, Dina joins Sinar for the “Sinar Solo” segment every Monday to Friday from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM.
