Eurovision

In 2007, Mirela participated in Misión Eurovisión 2007. Her best performance was with the song "La Reina de la Noche" (Queen of the Night). She was the public and judge favorite to win. However, she went on to face her 'deja vu' for the third time in a reality show, by finishing second place once again, losing to boyband D'Nash. Mirela later on won the chance to represent Spain in the OGAE Second Chance Contest with the track La Reina De La Noche and finished in third placed overall, only beaten by Sweden and the United Kingdom.

In 2008, she took part for the second time in the Eurovision Song Contest with her song entitled Stronger, but did not reach the national final.

Mirela took part in her third bid for the Eurovision song contest, taking part in Eurovision 2009: El Retorno. She made the national final on the 2009 pre-selection for Spain with the song Nada Es Comparable A Ti (No One Compares To You). She first performed her song on the semi final on February 28, 2009. She came in second in that semi final. She performed it for a second time in the final, and ended up finishing fourth place overall. It was the most successful ballad to enter that year. Despite finishing fourth in the Spanish national final, Mirela won her chance to represent Spain in the OGAE Second Chance Contest 2009 With 880 votes, beating Melody, Isi & Santa Fe, the next highest vote getters. This is the second time Mirela represented Spain in this contest, previously in 2007 with La Reina de la Noche.

La Voz

In September 2012, she entered the talent show "La Voz", Spanish adaptation of "The Voice", where she auditioned with "Sola Otra Vez".
