Katerine (real name - Katerine Avgoustakis) is a solo singer and was the winner of the 2005 Star Academy show in Belgium, similar to American Idol in the United States.  She was born on September 16, 1983.

Katerine plays the piano and used to be in a choir. Also she was a member of her first band Indiana, with whom she participated with for Eurovision Song Contest a couple of years ago, with the song Imitation Love.

Avgoustakis's debut single New Day, released in July 2005 in Belgium, peaked at no 2 in the Belgian UltraTop 50 chart. "New Day" was written and produced by Regi Penxten & Filip Vandueren, the team behind Milk Inc. Three months later, she received the TMF Flanders award for Best New National Artist for the song.

Her self-named debut album Katerine was released on November 14, 2005 in Belgium. The single, Here Come All the Boys, was delayed to be released in October 2005. This is the first single she also released in the Netherlands, that peaked at no 89 in the Dutch Mega Singles Top 100.

Katerine won also the first Belgian pre-selection for Eurosong 2006 on January 8, 2006 with the song Watch Me Move. Because of this, she was sure to have a place in the pre-finale rounds, however the judges thought her voice wasn't powerful enough to win.
