Conchita Wurst

I was watching The Big Fat Quiz of the Year tonight and was reminded of Conchita Wurst, the drag queen who won this year's Eurovision Song Contest.

I always meant to blog about her at the time but it was a case of the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. I was having some problems, basically. I've never really been one for Eurovision but a couple of years ago I discovered the sheer joy of ripping the piss out of it with friends on social media.

I love that Conchita even entered, let alone one. She was not afraid to be herself, beard and all. More gender fluidity.
