Vibeke Stene (pronounced vee-beh-keh) (born 17 August 1978.) is a Norwegian soprano singer. She is most often recognized as the former vocalist of the gothic metal band Tristania. Stene met the members of Tristania during her first years in high school. She joined the band shortly before they started recording their self-titled demo. At first she was meant to be only an additional singer, but later on she joined the band permanently. On 27 February 2007, Stene left Tristania for personal reasons. She stated that the reason was she wanted to pursue a long-held dream of hers, which was to teach singing.
In spring 2007, around the same time Stene left Tristania, the Finnish Symphonic Metal band Nightwish were going to announce the name of their new female vocalist. Due to Stene's recent departure from Tristania, it was widely discussed in the musical circles whether Vibeke would be inducted into Nightwish to replace Tarja Turunen. The rumor was quickly denied, however, when Stene said in an interview, "I am not the new singer in Nightwish."
In 2011, she was featured in the song, "Queen of Broken Hearts" by the electronic band, Plutho.
