MK is also one of the few Idol-participants world over who has once been voted out, to then come back and get to the final. She is the first woman in the Swedish Idol finals since 2008, when Alice Svensson managed to get to the finals in the Ericsson Globe in Stockholm.
Although MK came in second place, Sony Music signed a contract with her. Her debut album, Minnah Karlsson, was released on December 19 for digital downloads, and for in-store purchases on 20 December, only one week after the finals.
MK should also be included in the Idol Live Tour in which she and the other Swedish 9 idols are going on tour around Sweden. Adam Lambert has praised MK for her cover of his song Whataya Want From Me, and the song is included on her debut album.
