Tatiana Okupnik (born September 2nd, 1978) is a Polish pop singer, a former member of a Polish group Blue Cafe.

Back in her teens, Tatiana attended a ballet school. She also took part in cabaret shows, but her first significant appearance in the media came when she sang on a popular Polish music show, "Szansa na sukces" ("A Chance for Success").

In 1999, she became the lead singer and lyricist of Blue Cafe. In August 2001, the first single came out. The song title was "Espanol" and Tatiana sang in Spanish on it. The band kept going and receiving various awards in the Polish music business. In 2002, Blue Cafe got an MTV nomination for the Best Polish Act. Two years later, the band represented Poland at the Eurovision contest, placing 17th.

In 2005, Tatiana co-hosted the most popular Polish music festival held in Opole. In September, Blue Cafe appeared at the Miss Polonia show. The next day, September 3rd, the media announced that Tatiana left the band, reportedly leaving for the US where she planned to record her solo album.

Tatiana's debut solo album, On My Own came out on April 13th 2007, selling around 9,000 copies in the first two weeks. The first single off the album is titled "Don't Hold Back". The album presents an intriguing mix of pop, dance, modern R&B and hip-hop. It was produced by Lenny White, the former drummer in Miles Davis' band.

Following the album's release, Tatiana posed for the cover of a Polish pop-cultural magazine "Machina". According to press information, Tatiana did not pose nude for the photo, wearing a swimsuit instead, which was removed via computer.

Her second album, Spider Web, was released on May 16th, 2011 by SonyMusic. The first single (title song) was first presented on Chris Evans Breakfast Show on BBC2.

Tatiana was a jury member for the second edition of the Polish talent show X Factor (March 2012).
