Maltese singer Glen Vella will be representing Malta during Eurovision 2011 (ESC) with his song ‘One Life’.
Maltese tenor Joseph Calleja will be appearing during Malta’s kartolina

Glen will be the 11th entry tonight.

Glen Vella – unofficial music video with clips from Doctor Who, in particular scenes from the episode The Eleventh Hour (coincidentally the no 11 was involved here):
