The 2014 Eurovision final was won by Conchita Wurst, representing Austria, singing “Rise Like a Phoenix”. The whole world then noticed her unusual image: a bearded woman who was a drag queen. What is it like almost ten years after winning the European singing competition?
Thomas Neuwirth, also known as Conchita Wurst, is a singer and activist for the LGBTQ+ community. 10 years ago, the world got to know him as Conchita, a drag queen on stage. Conchita Wurst impressed Eurovision viewers not only with her voice. She also caused controversy with her image. Long hair, a dark beard and expressive makeup are the features that dominated her appearance.

Thomas Neuwirth is not a transwoman – contrary to what his platform might suggest. The female form serves him only on the stage.

What does Conchita Wurst look like today?
More than 400 thousand – this is the number of people who currently follow Conchita Wurst on Instagram, where the singer shares her latest photos – also with visual transformations. What is it like almost ten years after winning Eurovision? Last year she decided to make a big change – she cut her trademark long hair.
However, according to Conchita Wurst’s social media posts, the famous hairstyle is still with her, except on stage, probably in the form of a wig. The same applies to the heavy makeup and “feminine” clothes she wears. However, it must be admitted that without her – like Thomas, it would be difficult to recognize her on the street.
