‘It was a fierce competition, with outstanding artists and esteemed judges setting the stage alight with their talent and passion’, wrote Kaya’s representatives on social media.
Kaya gave a wonderful rendition of Celine Dion’s ‘My Heart Will Go On’, but also performed Claudia Faniello’s Eurovision Song Contest 2012 song ‘Pure’ on the second day of the festival.
Kaye thanked her vocal coach and mentor Gillian Attard, Muxu and Bianca for the opportunity, with the historic win showcasing the exceptional artistry of the Maltese.
Well done Kaya!
