Beatrice Elin Elisabeth Blennberger (born 9 January 1987[citation needed]), better known by her stage name Beatrice Eli, is a Swedish musician from Stockholm, Sweden.[1] She first gained attention with her 2012 single "The Conqueror", which was released on her debut EP It's Over. The EP contained 4 songs and was released in October 2012.[2] Beatrice Eli's debut album, Die Another Day, was released on 22 October 2014 through Razzia Records.[3]
Eli says she was raised by deeply religious Christian parents, and her style is different to theirs.[4] She told a journalist that "they understand that I didn't become the nice Church girl they wanted me to be."[4] As for her songwriting, she says, "I've always written about my feelings." She says Die Another Day "is about sex, drugs and girls."[4]
She is a lesbian and prefers that term over gay, as she told a journalist in 2015.[5] Beatrice used to be in a relationship with Swedish rapper Silvana Imam.[6] She features on the track "Shhh" on Imam's second album Naturkraft, released in 2016.[7] Beatrice's single "Careful" from the Careful EP was nominated for "Song of The Year" at the Gaffa Awards 2018.
