It’s been a while since we’ve taken a look at what 12-year-old Leah Lombardo has been up to – but we’re glad we did as she has kept up her make-up artistry game and continued to deliver all the looks!

Posting to social media, Leah creates various bizarre looks and characters through her work inspired by fantasy, prosthetics and other makeup artists – including local star Henry Galea. 

Whether it’s TikTok videos showing us the process of her creations or photographic snapshots of her work, Leah has continued to work on her passion for the craft and is paving the way for a bright future ahead in the industry.

Well done Leah!

It’s Eurovision Day: The Busker to perform tonight in 2nd place

It's Eurovision Day: The Busker to perform tonight in 2nd place
May 9 2023 Share

It’s the big day today as The Busker is set to hit the Eurovision stage for the first semifinal of the 2023 edition of the contest in the Liverpool Arena, UK. 

The 67th edition of the competition begins tonight, and will see 15 songs performing tonight and only 10 making it to the Grand Final on Saturday.

Malta’s The Busker, performing their fun piece ‘Dance (Our Own Party)’, will be doing so in second place, known as the ‘Death Slot’. 

This is due to only four acts qualifying for the final since 2013 from this position, earning it the ominous title by fans of the competition.

However, Malta’s representatives do not seem to be deterred by this at all, posting to social media: ‘Semi Final Night, Number 2! The Death Slot, Let’s Have It.’

Malta will be going up right after Norway’s Alessandra with her song ‘Queen of Kings’, and right before Serbia’s Luke Black with ‘Samo Mi Se Spava’.

Previous winner and powerhouse Loreen, with her song Tattoo, will also be performing tonight as Sweden’s representative in 11th place.

Ahead of The Busker’s first official performance at tonight’s Eurovision Song Contest Semi-Final, local DJ Debrii has dropped a club ready mashup of the band’s track ‘Dance (Our Own Party)’ on TikTok.

Incorporating Dav Jr.’s vocals with a certified club banger, which also includes a touch of brass, this edit is just what you to get any Eurovision party started in 2023.

The Busker will be performing in the second slot of tonight’s Eurovision semi-final, a time which is typically referred to as ‘The Death Slot’ by Eurovision aficionados, for the fact that only four acts have qualified to the competition’s final since 2013.

Despite this, the Maltese people remain fully supportive of their Eurovision representatives for what looks to be a spectacular show for the island’s sweater-wearing stars.

From tonight’s show, 10 of the 15 entries will qualify for Saturday’s Grand Final, with Sweeden’s Loreen and Finland’s Käärijä amongst the frontrunners to win the whole thing.

Who are you rooting for this year?

AI creator suggests sea transportation as traffic solution

AI creator suggests sea transportation as traffic solution

Local AI creator @malta.ai might have just given us the solution to some of our persistent traffic problems: autonomous ferries.

Through AI generated images, the creator reimagined Maltese sea-line localities embracing ferries to get citizens to where they need to go. 

This is not so outlandish to think about, having established a route between Malta and Gozo using ferries. But malta.ai is going one step further.

‘Using the latest in AI technology, these ferries can navigate themselves through the waterways, reducing the need for human operators and providing 24/7 service. Plus, they’re eco-friendly and can significantly reduce traffic congestion’ they explained. 

This comes as Maltese roads reinvigorate the calls for better transportation due to massive traffic gridlocks in various localities, leading to some students even missing important examinations. 

Do you think this would be a viable option to our current transportation issues?
