Valeriya Andreyevna Engalycheva (Russian: Валерия Андреевна Енгалычева; Romanian: Valeria Engalîceva;^[1] born 7 April 1999), known professionally as Lerika (Russian: Лерика), is a Moldovan-Russian singer and songwriter. She represented Moldova in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2011 with the song "No-No", and Russia in the 2012 contest with "Sensatsiya".
