Dolce Hera

Aleksandra Prelević Palladino (; born 16 December 1991), known professionally as Dolce Hera, is a Montenegrin musician and a former member of the rock band Shin-ei.

Early life Prelević Palladino was born in Podgorica on 16 December 1991.

After a decade-long break, Prelević Palladino returned to music in 2023 by releasing the single "Common Dreams", featuring Nina Žižić, for an upcoming album. It was accompanied by a music video directed by Đorđe Jovanović and Jovan Dudić and costumed by fashion designer Ana Krgović. By July, it had surpassed 100,000 views on YouTube.

On 27 October 2023, Prelević Palladino released a second single, "Sweet & Bizarre", featuring Vladana Vučinić. The song was written in February with its lyrics in Italian and it was accompanied by a music video which she directed. She performed at the Rubix Festival on 9 August 2024.

On 10 October 2024, Radio and Television of Montenegro announced that it had selected Prelević Palladino's "Repeat" as one of the songs to compete in Montesong 2024, the national final that it would organise to select its entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2025. A panel of reviewers for escYOUnited gave the song an average score of 5.0 out of 10. However, neither the public nor the jury awarded the song any points. Despite this, she claimed that her expectations had been exceeded. CDM.me considered her performances to be among the more creative in the contest. In November, she released a third single "Trivial Lovers", again accompanied by a music video she directed. She had been awarded a scholarship from the Miloš Karadaglić Foundation earlier that year.
