Jan 16 2023 Share

The first semi-final of Malta’s Got Talent has just unveiled the first three acts going forward into the finale of the competition – and the level is one to beat!

First up were Liston Bongailas, a rapper whose story brought tears to many people’s eyes, along with his dance crew Street Elements. The group, with Liston and Charlene’s adorable son stealing the show, will be competing for the top spot and cash prize during the finale.

But they’re not the only ones activating the audience’s goosebumps as Kyran Bonello, Sarah Zerafa’s incredible Golden Buzzer singer filled the room with his angelic voice. Bonello managed to recapture he sublime feeling he created during his audition.

And, last but definitely not least, was Ray Attard’s Golden Buzzer performance Olivia Lillith, who took us on a complete journey aboard the RMS Titanic. And the entertaining performance was conducted all in heels! 

The night saw other incredible stand-outs and bizarre talents fill the stage. The second semifinal will see another three moving to the final – and we can’t see who gets to fill in the remaining spots of Malta’s Got Talent second season pantheon!

Iconic structures such as the Sagrada Familia, the Colosseum and more were seemingly ‘completed’ with the drones, showcasing how technology can be used to visualise new structures and assess their impact to the skylines.

The artist duo has a history of working with illuminated drones, with their light installation ‘Breaking Waves’, which debuted in April, bringing concert hall Elbphilharmonie Hamburg to life with a dance of drones.

What do you make of the works?

Jan 15 2023 Share

A diss track by Shakira aimed at ex-partner Gerard Piqué for cheating has broken a Latin YouTube record.

The 45-year-old singer’s video for ‘Out of Your League’ has been watched more than 63 million times in a span of 24 hours, making it the most viewed Latin song in that time period.

Amongst other sharp attacks, the track addresses the Barcelona defender’s new alleged 23-year-old partner, with Shakira comparing the relationship to swapping a Ferrari for a Twingo and a Rolex for a Casio.

The track also references the Colombian singer’s issues with Spanish authorities, claiming that her ex left her with €14.5 million in income tax debt, all while her in-laws remained neighbours.

Meanwhile, the Spanish defender did not hold back, announcing a new partnership with Casio watches for his new football 7-a-side project titled the King’s League.

The two separated in 2022 after more than 10 years together; they remain focused on co-parenting their children, nine-year-old Milan and seven-year-old Sasha.
