Having (apparently) swum with some tuna that
same morning, Enrique Iglesias and Nicole
Scherzinger returned to the Granaries stage in
Floriana on Wednesday night, performing in the
ninth edition of the annual – and free-of-charge –
concert-cum-tourist bait Isle of MTV.
This is the third time that Iglesias participated
in Isle of MTV – as the Spanish-born singer also
graced the 2007 and 2008 editions of the event,
while Scherzinger had previously performed at
the concert while she was still a member of the
Pussycat Dolls.
The duo were also joined by up-and-coming 'MTV
Push' artist, the electro-pop singer-songwriter
Kiesza, as well as East London hip-hop sensation
Dizzee Rascal (of 'Bonkers') fame, along with DJ
Hardwell.
An innovation to the event this year was the
inclusion of a local act, chosen online by popular
vote. Funk Initiative, headlined by former
Eurovision hopeful Gianluca Bezzina, got to be the
opening band at yesterday's concert.
