It was most likely imported or reproduced from a website associated with the subject of the page - possibly through a process involving far-from-perfect machine translation, often with awkward results.

Eleanor Spiteri was born on the 19th November 1986.
She carries a BSc. Nursing Degree. However, music has always been the centre of Eleanor's life. Being brought up in a musical environment, it is no wonder that she started showing interest in music at a very early stage. Her mother encouraged Eleanor, aged 12, to audition for the Malta Children's Choir of ActReact, directed by Ray Mangion. Eleanor's singing career actually started from there. During those 5 years with ActReact, she took part in various productions, which include The Magic of Musicals, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Abba-Esque, The Sound of Music and Beatles on my Mind.
After those 5 years with ActReact, she auditioned for the musical 1565-The Great Siege of Malta, produced by Masquerade Theatre Company, directed by Anthony Bezzina, where she played the leading role of Anna. Other productions with Masquerade include Xmas with Beyond the Barricade and Seussical the Musical. She studied voice technique at Gillian Zammit and Antoinette Miggiani.
She has participated in the television programme HOTSPOT on Net TV obtaining 2nd place out of 50 contestants.
In the year 2006, it has been Eleanor's first time participating in the Maltasong for Europe festival singing the song This Heart of Mine, composed by Maestro Paul Abela and written by Joe Julian Farrugia; sung with Roger Tirazona and Cliff Zammit as the group Trilogy. Together with Roger and Cliff, she placed in the 3rd place. The following year, Eleanor alongside Roger and the newcomer Daniel Debono, placed 2nd in the Maltasong for Europe.
She has been the main female singer of the TV programme Tista’ Tkun Int!
In July 2008, she had the great opportunity to sing the American National Anthem in front of a crowd of 40,000 people at the San Francisco Giants Stadium, also called the AT & T Park.
In 2009, Eleanor also participated for her first time as a solo artist in the Maltasong for Europe with the song Velvet Ocean, composed by Mro.Paul Abela and written by Joe Julian Farrugia, placing with the top five.
