Malta’s Christabelle took to the Eurovision stage on Wednesday for the first rehearsal of her song Taboo.
Taboo was written by Christabelle and Johnny Sanchez, Muxu and Thomas G:Son.
Christabelle started her rehearsal performance in an open box-like structure, as screens projected an image of a black panther.

As the song progressed, red and blue lights got brighter and turned the performance from sombre to powerful.
