Betty Maggira (Greek: Μπέττυ Μαγγίρα) and Mathildi Maggira (Greek: Ματθίλδη Μαγγίρα), also known as the Maggira Sisters (Greek: αδελφές Μαγγίρα), are two Greek television presenters[1] and comedians. They are known for hosting the Greek Eurovision Song Contest selections and also being the commentators at the Eurovision Song Contest for ERT, the Greek network broadcasting the event.[2] They began their careers as a show duo where they impersonate other musical artists and produce musical-type shows that often include cabaret themes. The two sisters have also worked with Greek singer, Sakis Rouvas, in a successful concert series at STARZ from 2008 to 2009 and both have been featured as solo acts in various television shows.
