25 year old Carmen Fenk is the winner of MusicStar, a casting show held by German-Swiss broadcaster SF DRS. She was rewarded with a recording contract and the chance to compete in the Swiss national final on 6 March, together with her three followers-up.
In the MusicStar final, which was seen by 1.59 million viewers, Carmen beat 22 year old primary school teacher Mario Pacchioli and hair dresser Piero Esteriore. As SF DRS reported later, they recieved a bomb thread at the end of show by phone, fortunately nothing happened. Police is investigating now.
