Sarah Engels (born October 15, 1992 in Cologne, North Rhine-Westphalia)[1] is a German singer. She currently resides in Hürth, North Rhine-Westphalia with her family.[1] She is best known for participating in season 8 of Deutschland sucht den Superstar, where she was eliminated from the Top 10,[2][3] only to return two shows later and eventually become the runner-up.

Deutschland sucht den Superstar

Engels also participated in season 7 of Deutschland sucht den Superstar but was eliminated during the recall after her duet with Eugen Flittner.[1] In season 8, she was eliminated in the first Live Show.[4] Later on, she was asked to come back because RTL chief Tom Sänger (not the voters!) had eliminated Nina Richel from the show, allegedly for health reasons.[5]

Pietro Lombardi's brother posted a semi-nude picture of Engels after she had used Pietro's mobile phone to talk to girls.[6] After hearing about what Sarah had done, Lombardi's brother Marco, who wasn't too happy about her actions, decided to take "revenge" by sharing this semi-nude picture of Engels.[6] According to him, "Everyone knows how cheap Sarah Engels is. (She) is sneaky, a lying horse-faced ghit."[6]
