Betty Boop is a Serbian power pop girl band from Zrenjanin.
The band was formed in 2005[1] in Belgrade, Serbia, consisting of Marija Mandic (vocals and guitar), Anja Prošić (drums), Nikolina "Nina" Doroškov (bass guitar) and Kristina Krspogačin (vocals and guitar), under the guidance of their song author and manager Ognjen Cvekić.
They have been contestants in many festivals, including Zrenjanin (2005), Izbor za dečju pesmu Evrovizije (2006), Sunčane Skale (2006 and 2008), Slavianski Bazaar and Beovizija (2007 and 2008).
