Nirina Zubir

Nirina Raudatul Jannah Zubir or better known as Nirina Zubir (born 12 March 1980) is an Indonesian actress and television presenter of Minangkabau descent. Early life and career Nirina was Born in Antananarivo, Madagascar to expatriate Indonesian parents of ethnic Minangkabau origin hailing from Pariaman, West Sumatra, where her father, Zubir Amin was working as a senior diplomat with the Indonesian Embassy in that country. Her name was a special given one from the Malagasy language and was registered at birth as Nirina Raudhatul Jannah Zubir. Nirina graduated from the STIE Perbanas School of Economics. She eventually looked for other options as soon as graduation. She admitted to never imagine in becoming a radio DJ. Her first career at MTVonSky radio station (now MTV Sky) was a coincidence. According to Nirina, it was her friends who applied to MTVonSky under her name. Her friends' move turned into a major change in her life. Quite beyond her expectations, MTVonSky hired Nirina because of her distinctive noisy-yet-witty personality.
