After much speculation, it was confirmed that Madonna would be performing at this year's Eurovision final in Tel Aviv.
The 60-year-old singer's appearance on the show was confirmed just days before tonight's grand final.
Organisers of the contest said earlier this week that the pop diva had not yet signed a contract and that she could not perform without one.
However she was spotted arriving in Israel on Tuesday and was rumoured to be rehearsing in a secret location.

What songs will Madonna be performing?
Madonna will be performing two songs in the interval during tonight's final.
She will be singing her 1989 hit Like A Prayer and her new single Future with US rapper Quavo.
The star hit Tel Aviv, Israel, with a crew including 25 dancers, 40 backing singers, a director, a choreographer and animators.
And her kit has piled extra pressure on stagehands, with one source saying: “They have enough work as it is with the 41 acts and now she’s adding 30 tonnes of props too.”
Why did Madonna not sign a contract and why is her performance controversial?
A source told the Mirror that Madonna didn't sign a contract due to safety concerns.
Israeli Fuldi Schwartz, 66, died on Monday after being crushed. He was unloading gear when a lighting rig fell over.
Madonna singing Like a Prayer, to mark her hit’s 30th anniversary, could prove controversial.
An insider said: “A song about religious devotion sung in this part of the world, at this time, could be quite incendiary.”
