Salome Clausen

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Salome Clausen is a Swiss pop music artist best-known for winning the 2005 second series of the music-based reality television show MusicStars. Whilst part of MusicStars, Salome would top the singles chart twice, and be part of three album releases (all of which made the Swiss album top 20). After winning the show, Clausen would spend three weeks at the top of the Swiss singles chart with "Gumpu", and would see her debut album ...Moji peak at number two. Clausen has since fell out of the spotlight, however, and as of 2006 appears to be a one-hit wonder. 2006 she choosed to go back to her former life. She works now - like before her tiny career - as a hair stylist.

In winning MusicStar, Salome beat out competition from talents such as Daniel Kandlbauer and Claudia D'Addio, who have both also had success in their post-MusicStar careers.
