Farina

Farina Pao is a colombian hip-hop/reggaeton singer who got famous in 2005 when the hit-reality-show "El Factor X" (based on the british 'The X Factor') became the most popular show in her home country, Colombia. She won the third place and the love of her audience, and her catchy phrase 'Yo soy Farina' became popular.

'El Factor X' was won that year by Julio and the group Enygma got the second place. In 2006, 'El Factor X 2006', 'El Factor XS' (featuring talented children from 8 to 15 years old) and 'El Factor X: La Batalla de las Estrellas' ('The Battle of the Stars', featuring famous not-singers singing) were released, with great ratings.
