I don't think people realize how important and how it changed the whole country of Austria when Conchita won. Austria is a very very conservative country and Conchita was everywhere when she won. It really changed the minds of many people.
Troppo bella, troppo brava, esibizione mozzafiato, non so quante volte l’ho guardata nel giro di questi anni e mai mi stuferò… sei di un’ispirazione pazzesca!!! Rinascita!!! Dalle ceneri alle stelle!!! Facciamogliela vedere a tutti quelli che ci volevano vedere crollare e non rialzarci più!!! NO!!! Noi abbiamo la fiamma dentro, abbiamo l’Amore per noi stesse e per chi amiamo e ci ama… il resto??? Sotto i tacchi 👠!!!
I am from Austria and I would say you are partly right. Before 2014, I felt comfortable and safe as an openly gay man. The majority supported LGBTQ+ individuals, but it was primarily the ÖVP who always voted against equality. However, the progress regarding protection laws and same-sex marriage are really important and they came after Conchita‘s win. I remember many right-wing minded people got upset and they went very silent after conchita won the contest.
Conchita taught me without knowing it, how I was limiting myself, through my internalized homophobia etc. I would have never been exposed to your amazing voice, your incredible songs and you. Just a beautiful soul, wonderful humour. Where I felt uncomfortable about your beard and unusual appearance, I'm so grateful that your music inspired me to know about you. What I discovered is a person much younger than who inspired me to write this, hopefully you read this someday. I'm so happy to see young people like you, as you're actions will create such an amazing change. I'm also very sad that I was never privileged enough to have someone like you to understand I've been hiding, for decades. You chose life, while I was scared. You are incredible
She is a he. Conchita Wurst is Thomas Neuwirth in drag. Thomas is not transgender, nor is he transvestite, he's a drag queen Conchita Wurst is a character, not an identity. Perhaps character is the wrong word, way of life is probably better.
Thomas.m.b Well if you think that way I am sorry for you. Your life must be sad going around hating everyone for how they look like, dress and who they love. I hope you will be happy one day. 😙
I shouldn't even reply to this but here I am defending myself on the internet smh. Your brains can't comprehend how much I don't care about this. My life is pretty good and I am not as sad as you think I am. Just a random dude trolling in the UA-cam comment section. lol
I always forget most Eurovision stars don't speak English as a first language so their voices aren't as strong as native English speakers when they actually speak instead of sing.
@@padfoot9364 I think people in Austria speak not so bad English, I was there often (I am Italian) and I could always understand everybody... But Arnold Schwarzenegger is really difficult to understand😅😅
@@aitchjayem2294 well either is correct I suppose but it‘s normally she/her when someone’s in drag and he/him when they’re not :) and since they’re talking about Conchita here, ‘she’ is correct
The style is good, but you can see most hollywood person use the expensive wig made from real human hair. That makes them looks like not wearing a wig. The glow on the hair that makes it looks like a wig. Maybe Cher tried to point that out
I have nothing to do with the gay community or do i really care for the eurovision. To witness how somebody is becoming who they really are, creating their own game against the odds is just such a magical and inspiring thing. Thank you Conchita!
@@manka960 Im not talking about his body and whether he inhabits it as a boy or a girl. Im just talking about the mans lovely personality. You cant deny he is a very charming man
Everyone who was hating on her in these comments needs to find something better to do with ur life. Just because someone is successful and is good at what they do doesn't mean that your little grubby hands should dig them down. So don't dig urself into a hole and just respect the art and respect the talent
It's not hate over his/her success but more of the ridiculousness of 'girl' with beard actually a boy. There are more people hating more successful people for just what they do but they just ignore it.
@@bluemystic7501 we ALL know that.. but it's her life and not yours. You don't decide what she has to identify herself as. If identifies as a woman then that's HER right. So stop trying to tear her down for owning her true self.

@@assumapro1018 well either or, his name is Tim but drag name is Conchita. Its kinda like a disney character, a woman could be in a chip or dale outfit.
I love the beard. I find no confusion just noble admiration , respect Conchita my girl you are so beyond talented and I love my bb girl Kirsten is there!!!!
As Tom / Conchita mentioned in the interview, Conchita Wurst is an artificial persona, he actualy chose the stage name Conchita Wurst as meaning „lady with a sausage“! Eurovision was an important stage in his life where he used the opportunity to make a statement.
it is not any "with a sausage" at all ! you make a mistake, Conchita choose Wurst which means sausage from the german expression : "das ist mir wurst" which mean : "no matter what" or "all the same" and most people misunderstood her so she actually dropped the word "Wurst".
I can't help thinking that Molly (U.K. entry: "Children of the Universe") is rather annoyed by Graham Norton's fawning over Conchita. It might not be so, but I think it probably is so.
Всеми любимый и желанный Кончита Вурст постоянный гость теле, шоу и радио 📻 передач, всегда рад делиться своими мыслями, советами, мнениями, историей и обязательно своими песнями. Браво тебе Кончита.
Beautiful soul. Sad she had a hard time growing up, in such a beautiful place. But narrow minded people are everywhere. Kirsten Dunst is so great.Devil’s Arithmetic excellent movie.
I wonder what her favourite part of the show was... could it have been either the music (from Sam Smith, who was the musical guest for the episode, in which Conchita was a musical guest on a later episode in 2014 on Graham Norton,) or could it have been the red chairs (in which I believe the first person Graham flipped on that episode, Conchita couldve found that thing very funny!)
Man it’s so sad... the comments about conchita in English are soo nice, but the comments underneath an interview with her in German are sooo disgusting 😞 Austria still seems to be a little behind
I love this person I just heard her say or him you only get one life staff can humans get we are spirit not a body there isn't no death we go home he's got a gift of singing I have the gift of psychic clairvoyant mediumship
You know what's interesting? She can be fabulous as a dragqueen, but also very sexy as a man. And I'm veryyyyy straight. :)) And I'm a woman. I think Conchita/Thomas is just talented in many artistic fields and that helped.
My guess is that anyone from the outside looking at her would be taken aback and question the reasoning and method. After seeing how comfortable and glamorous Conchita is you really know all you need to know. She is who she is, and she is going to live her life in a way that tells her story and makes her happy.
I belive she wanted to say something like one of the questions„why the beard“? - The answer is „because i want to, I can, because i want to be unique, and it‘s part of my stage personality“
I don't think people realize how important and how it changed the whole country of Austria when Conchita won. Austria is a very very conservative country and Conchita was everywhere when she won. It really changed the minds of many people.
Yup. Now Austria has one of the best records on LGBTQ+ laws and civil rights.

One of the best eurovision winners in a long time. Brilliant role model. She stood up for LGBT rights across the world - and she did it fabulously.
She is my personal favourite winner of Eurovision ever because I see true beauty in her.
If we're gonna nitpick, it's actually a *song* contest and not a singing contest. Originally the best song was supposed to win.
