Lene (born Lene Grawford Nystrøm on 2 October 1973 in Tønsberg, Norway) is a Norwegian singer, who is best known as the lead vocalist for pop-dance group Aqua.[1]
During her teenage years Lene developed an interest in performing and began her adult life as a barmaid and model.
During the Aqua-days she had homes in both Norway and Denmark.
The relationship between Lene and Søren Rasted is rumored to be one of the many reasons Aqua disbanded in 2001. Originally Lene was dating Rene Dif. Then she dated Søren.
Lene married Søren on August 25, 2001. After the marriage Lene moved to live permanently in Denmark. On November 6, 2004, she gave birth to a daughter, India. The couple welcomed their second child, a boy named Billy, in 2006.
Aqua
In 1994 Lene was spotted by René Dif singing on a cruise ship. He approached her and she became the lead vocalist for the group which was initially called Joyspeed, later re-named Aqua. The group consisted of Lene, René Dif, Søren Rasted and Claus Norreen. In their prime, Aqua managed to make the singles chart top ten in a number of countries where European pop acts would not normally succeed. She would remain with the group until 2001 when they split up due to personal differences, including a relationship between Lene and Søren Rasted. In October 2007, the band told the Danish newspaper Ekstra Bladet that they're coming back.
