Microsoft has been touting its Windows Phone Next App Star competition for a few weeks now and the company has finally selected a winner in the contest.

\

The winner? Wikipedia app for Windows Phone 8! “An app star is born. After three weeks and more than 600,000 votes, Rudy Huyn of Renne, France and his highly-rated Wikipedia app has won our Windows Phone Next App Star competition, edging out the photography app ProShot from Roseville, Calif-based Eddie Kezel,” Microsoft stated in an official blog post.

\

The Wikipedia app has nearly 8,000 reviews and a perfect five-star rating. This app has also earned a spot in a future primetime Windows Phone TV commercial, as part of the prize for winning the competition.
