Jacqline Mossberg Mounkassa

Jacqline Lie Hope Clarine People Mossberg Mounkassa (born 2 July 1998), known mononymously as Jacqline , is a Swedish singer.

Career Mossberg Mounkassa was born into a musical family, her Congolese father Lajo being a music producer and songwriter. When she was 16 years old, she dropped out of high school to devote herself entirely to music. In the spring of 2021, she released her first single, "Do It Better". On the day of the launch, she had been poisoned, was hospitalized and risked permanent damage to her vocal cords. There, along with four other applicants, she was assigned to the Stockholm region, and later she was also selected to become that region's idol rocket, this after dueling against the same-age Ella Öberg (who would later return in the last episode due to a dropout from another idol rocket) from the same region. Through the second part of the Idol gig, the qualifying week and the qualifying final, Mossberg Mounkassa managed to become one of the participants in the top 13 by receiving one of the jury's six wild cards, this after she had only a few days earlier failed to advance to the qualifying final from her qualifying heat. On 3 December 2021, it was confirmed that Mossberg Mounkassa would face Birkir Blær in the idol final held at the Avicii Arena on 10 December. Once in the final, she finished in second place.

Melodifestivalen Mossberg Mounkassa participated in Melodifestivalen 2024, the selection for the Eurovision Song Contest 2024, with the song "Effortless". She ultimately placed ninth in the final, with 40 points from the juries, 21 points from the televote, totalling 61 points.

She is participating in Melodifestivalen 2026, the Swedish selection for the Eurovision Song Contest 2026, with the song "Woman".
