Cleopatra Stratan - 3 Year Old Romanian Child Star
Cleopatra Stratan, the 3 year old who has hit the Romanian music charts big, seems to have become famous because her childlike singing and childlike charms are something different . . . she has not been made into a miniature adult, given the wardrobe of a sex symbol, or been thrust into the latest gore-ridden horror flick. In Eastern Europe, children are still children and generally must be protected as such; Cleopatra's father has refused monetary offers to market her. With her oversized suitcase, pink plastic sunglasses, and disheveled pigtails, Cleopatra is singing an innocuous song about a missing person named Ghita, who could be her big brother, uncle, or friend - no innuendos here. Even though it's obvious her voice has been engineered to a certain extent, she's still adorable.

Cleopatra is Moldovan, not Romanian. Some blur the line for convenience, but it is an independent country, and I feel it’s a bit disrespectful to fail to recognize it as such.
same thing
i agree with the previous comments
Perhaps the previous comments made by a patriots of a communist run Bassarabia, which they call the republic of Moldova. The fact is that bassarabian moldovans are the same people as romanian moldovans separated by Stalin, therefore it is irrelevant how to introduce this talented child. It should be decided either by Cleopatra herself or her parents. The fact that her talent was discovered and promoted in Romania speaks for itself.
and you, Ala, judging by the name, I assume, are Russian
and this is why you are so upset that she is labelled ‘Romanian’. How convenient for you to call ‘Moldova’ independent, especially when you’re a Russian yourself, isn’t it 
though you’d much rather have Moldova as a Russian province or …well, at least ’satellite’ 
I am afraid it ain’t gonna happen though 
The girl sings in Romanian, so this is what’s important here, she definitely doesn’t sing in Russian 
or in ‘Moldovan’ for there is not such a thing as ‘Moldovan’ language. So, I see no grave error in calling her ‘Romanian’. She’s ethnic Romanian from Moldova, ok? Does this sound better to you? Same like there are ethnic Hungarians in Romania and they like to be recognized as such, so Cleopatra is ethnic Romanian from Moldova. So, there, hope I have put to rest your ‘metaphysical restlessness’ re: this little girl’s origins.
The girl is too cute! I definitely wish her good things. I put up a fansite at CleopatraStratan.com with the Ghita video4 and English lyrics. If anyone knows the family have them get in touch with me because I’ love to get them the domain name to use for her official site.
