About Nikolina Pisek
The 50-year-old TV host is age-defying as she continues to show off her perfect body on the gram.
She has not taken a day off pushing her career to higher grounds. She has been a prominent face on Croatian television screens for many years.
Perhaps her most significant career breakthrough occurred in late September 2008, almost simultaneously with her transition to a new network, Nora TV. During this time, she was unveiled as one of the four hosts of “Operacija Trijumf,” the local adaptation of Star Academy for the five Balkan countries that were formerly part of Yugoslavia.
Her co-hosts included Milan Kalinić, Ana Mihajlovski, and Maca Marinković. Her weekly appearances on this immensely popular reality singing contest, which spanned three months and aired on six networks, captured a substantial audience across the Balkans. This exposure catapulted her to heightened fame and opened up new career opportunities beyond Croatia.
Starting in September 2022, Nikolina assumed the role of co-host for the talk show “Donna” alongside Dejana Rosuljaš and Baya Bangue Namkosse on Una TV, a regional television channel with hubs in Belgrade and Banjaluka.
In 2023, Nikolina made her return to Croatian television, taking over as the host of the second season of the Croatian adaptation of “Masked Singer” on RTL Televizija, succeeding Antonija Blaće in this role.
She has been an eye candy for many years and has not allowed the pain of losing a marriage mate mask her glow.
