Local star and new Malta’s Got Talent host Gianni Zammit is officially celebrating his 50th birthday today. The charismatic Maltese icon took to social media to state that he has officially and proudly joined a new club today: ‘the 50’s club.’
Gianni was born on the 18th of August of 1972, and has been a familiar face on Maltese television for a good chunk of his adult career. He has also been part of events such as Rockestra, given his avid passion for music.
Known for being a massive fan of massive rock band KISS, he is often glimpsed wielding one of his many guitars. He will be taking his love for art and performance to the second season of Malta’s Got Talent as he replaces Gordon Bonello, who has been promoted to the seat of judge for this next edition.

The Malta Police Force issued out a advisory post on social media to warn against announcing that a household is completely unattended as all its occupants are abroad or on holiday.
The post asked whether people would leave a physical note on the door of a house, stating ‘House Unattended. All the family is off for a holiday.’ If not, the police asked whether it would then make sense to announce it via social media.
‘Do not make it easier for criminals’ they said. ‘While physically securing your home is extremely important, one can also take certain social measures for security.’
The post, whilst not intending to keep people from sharing lovely memories being made whilst abroad, could inspire travellers to be a bit more careful about how and when to share holiday photos. This could be as easy as not revealing how many of the household are actually abroad, or posting images after one has returned.
