Lestiani Andryani better known as Lesti or Lesti DA (Lesti Dangbut Academy) or Lesti Kejora (born in Bandung, West Java, Indonesia on August 5, 1999) is an Indonesian singer and actress of Sundanese origin. Although singing many genres, she is best recognized as a Dangdut singer, a genre of Indonesian folk music that is partly derived and fused from Hindustani, Arabic music and Malay and local folk music. Lesti has been instrumental in popularizing Dangdut throughout music fandom in Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei Darussalam.[1] She is signed to Trinity Optima Production. She has also acted in a number of film productions. After various appearances without any Islamic attire, she decided to wear a hijab in later part of her career. Her collaboration with other artists have earned her accolades and awards, particularly her teaming up with Fildan Rahayu, Rizky Billar and Danang in duets. Her collaboration with notable songwriters like Nur Bayan and Pak Ngah resulted in massive hits.[1]
