Turkstar is a reality television show based on the popular British show Pop Idol. The show is a contest to determine the best young singer in Turkey. It is hosted by Seray Sever, Gamze Özçelik & Haldun Dormen. While the show is the first and currently only Idol franchise to feature a duo, it had extremely bad ratings and was discontinued.
