ABOUT OMER ADAM

Pop singer who caused a stir when he was disqualified on the Israeli Pop Idol shows Kokhav Nolad when it was revealed that he was too young to compete.

He was selected to participate in the 7th season of Kokhav Nolad, a singing competition show, lasting for 6 weeks before blogger Omri Hayon reported that at the time he was only 15, not 16 like the rules require. He confirmed the report and removed himself from the competition.

After leaving the show, he toured Israel, releasing singles from his debut album as he went. In 2021, he released his 7th album, titled The 8.

He was born in Mishmas HaShiva, Israel. He previously dated Sheerelle Toledano. He later began a relationship with Yael Shelbia. They separated in January 2025.

Kokhav Nolad is the same show that gave Israeli rocker Ninet Tayeb her start after she won her debut season.
