Monika Ivkic (born 6 June 1989), also known as Monice, is a Bosnian-born Austrian pop singer best known for achieving fourth place in the fifth season of the German casting show Deutschland sucht den Superstar (DSDS).

After getting disqualified because she did not meet the minimum age requirement, she was invited to resubmit her application for the following season, where she progressed through the auditions but failed to make it to the finals.

Her popularity soared when, in the following year, she qualified for the fifth season of Deutschland sucht den Superstar (DSDS), which is broadcast by RTL, and finished in fourth place.

Ivkic participated in the fifth season of Deutschland sucht den Superstar (DSDS), the German version of the US talent show American Idol.

At the show's finale, which pitted Fady Maalouf against eventual winner Thomas Godoj, Ivkic returned to perform live, both alone and with other contestants.

Following Deutschland sucht den Superstar, Ivkic did not sign a contract with a record label, citing a desire to express herself musically without being bound by the commercial constraints of her home market.

She began changing her image at the end of 2008, attempting a shift from ballad singer to pop star, and looking to draw attention by dyeing her hair black and losing some weight.
