Naples is renowned for its Christmas crib tradition and each year people look forward to seeing who the "new entries" will be - often figures from the world of politics, sport or entertainment. This year it is the turn of Damiano David, frontman of Italy's Eurovision-winning rock band Måneksin, to be honoured by the great Neapolitan tradition, reports Italian news agency ANSA.

Damiano's debut in a Naples crib scene comes courtesy of artisan Genny Di Virgilio who has reproduced a painted terracotta figurine of the 22-year-old glam rock star - dressed in a green sequin jumpsuit and heavy eye makeup - using the traditional techniques of the master craftsmen at S. Gregorio Armeno.
