Filmography
Pauline Curuenavuli (born 15 October 1982), known professionally as Paulini, is a Fijian-born Australian singer, songwriter and actress. Born in Suva, Fiji, Paulini moved to Sydney, Australia with her family at the age of four. She rose to fame in 2003 as a contestant on the first season of Australian Idol and placed fourth in the competition. Paulini subsequently signed a recording contract with Sony BMG Australia and released her debut studio album One Determined Heart (2004), which debuted at number one on the ARIA Albums Chart and was certified platinum. The album included the platinum single Angel Eyes, which spent three consecutive weeks at number one on the ARIA Singles Chart. Paulini received two ARIA No. 1 Chart Awards for both the album and single. In 2006, Paulini released her second studio album Superwoman, which failed to match the commercial success of her debut album. Despite the underperformance of Superwoman, the album included the moderately successful single Rough Day and earned Paulini two nominations at the Australia/New Zealand Urban Music Awards. That same year, Paulini enjoyed commercial success again as a member of the Australian girl group Young Divas. The group released two top-ten albums, Young Divas (2006) and New Attitude (2007), and achieved three top-fifteen singles, including the hugely successful This Time I Know It's for Real. After Paulini parted ways with the Young Divas and ended her contract with Sony BMG in 2008, she focused more on songwriting.
