Updated: Malta's Eurovision team change outfits for second rehearsal

Wearing a yellow T-shirt under a black jacket along with a single yellow fingerless soft leather glove on his right hand, Kurt Calleja had his second Eurovision rehearsal this afternoon, at the Crystal Hall in Baku, Azerbaijan.

Eurovision.tv said that while the staging of Malta’s song was the same as for the first rehearsal last Tuesday, the outfits worn by Kurt and his backing group were different.

Asked about the significance of the single glove during a press conference held after the rehearsal, Kurt said it was just a fashion accessory that he particularly liked, even though he was not normally particularly fashion conscious.

The backing performers were today all wearing predominantly white tops with jeans while the DJ/dancer wore yellow jeans.

They include Kurt's younger brother Kevin, who was aksed if his elder brother had any embarrassing habits. He diplomatically declined to make any negative comments about Kurt.

Another group member is Amber, who finished third in this year's Malta's final. She was asked to perform part of her song Answer With Your Eyes.

When asked what was his favourite ever Eurovision song, Kurt said it was the 1994 winner Rock 'n' Roll kids. He also sang part of this song, along with some of his other favourite songs in general.

Kurt competes in the second semi-final next Thursday.
