Kate Ryan turned 28 yesterday. A very special present arrived from Sweden: a gold record for her latest single Ella elle l'a, which have sold over 10,000 copies. A party celebrating this fact has been held in Stockholm, the city where Kate Ryan's hit was recorded.

The single Ella elle l'a has been on top 10 of the Swedish charts for 10 weeks. Kate's Swedish producers Niklas Bergwall and Niclas Kings are very happy with this and see it as a proof of a big success and Kate's rising popularity.

The song has become extremely popular in Sweden. It is continuously played on TV, radio, stores and a couple of weeks ago, Ella elle l'a was already voted 'sommarplåga' of the year by the readers of Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet. The song is also topping the Dutch charts, so producers expect to go gold there as well.

In the upcoming weeks, Kate Ryan will perform in several Swedish clubs. On Thursday 31st July, an exclusive concert at Café Opera in Stockholm is scheduled. That evening, also the annual Schlagerpride takes place in the Swedish capital during the Europride.
