Morena was in good form tonight as she took to the stage of the Euroclub in Belgrade to perform at the party, which Malta organised jointly with Belarus and Bulgaria.

Accompanied by her four Swedish dancers, the 24-year-old Gozitan pumped energy into her performance, even though the event was not so well attended.

Unfortunately, the party coincided with the beginning of the second official dress rehearsal before Tuesday's first semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest and several media and fans were following that event.

However, the Maltese fans who arrived in Serbia today - some 50 in all, with about 30 from Gozo alone - more than made up for it, cheering and waving their national flag.

The contestant for Belarus, Ruslan Alehno, and Bulgaria's Deep Zone and Balthazar also performed on stage.

Tuesday is a day off for Morena and she plans to spend the day chilling out and doing some sightseeing in Belgrade before Wednesday's gruelling day of two official dress rehearsals.
