Biography

Vanessa Krasniqi was born in 1994 in Iserlohn, North Rhine-Westphalia to a German mother and an Albanian father from Kosovo. She attended both elementary and high school in her hometown and continued to pursue her professional career.

In 2008 she decided to join Das Supertalent, a national talent show. In her first audition, she received a standing ovation from the judging panel and the audience. She reached the final and was ranked fourth overall.

In 2012 she challenged herself for a talent show again, this time for DSDS, the German franchise of Idols. She successfully passed the first stages of the show and earned a place in the live shows. She was eliminated in the Top 8 on 17 March.[1][2] Considered a frontrunner of her season, her early elimination shocked the judges and her fellow contestants.[3][4][5] RTL stated that she won't return despite angry fans protesting.[6]

gollark: Probably with multiple people for the authentic tribal hunter gathering experience
gollark: > Look m8 all I want to be is happyIf you think you will be better off without technology, you can go return to monke yourself and whatnot. Enjoy.
gollark: I think this is broadly missing the point. You're bringing up one apparently bad result of technological progress and ignoring all the really good but less obvious (because they faded into the background) things.
