No! I'm dead seriuos. In general I dislike almost all Swedish entries in last ten or 15 years. Only one i really love is This Is My Life (ironically the only one who failed to qualify for final), and all other are usually deja vu for me xkiss

I don't care for previous Swedish entries...

But.....but...but.... fuckin' walkin' legend Sanna Nielsen, how you have strength to say smth like that??? :eek: :eek: :eek:

I admire how brave you are.. xbow xbow xbow

I'm still in shock, sorry! :eek:

“[Dana International] is a transgender person and it’s such a huge decision and it’s just incredible what you have to go through to become a woman,” Conchita tells us. “But me as a drag artist, this is just dressing up and painting.”

Hopefully some people will now stop saying he's prentending to be something he's not.

Yesterday evening, Conchita Wurst was a guest in "Café Corsari", a talk-show on the Belgian public broadcaster EEN (the first VRT tv-channel).

Here's a link to the show:

The song is good, I have to admit but .... please Austria ... "die Wurst", really?
He or she (?) is horrible - no, not because of the beard - & again no, not because he's dressing like a woman! He (I'm gonna stick with he for now) is just an attention-seeker on a high level, jumping from one trash-TV-show to the next & now he gets his spotlight at ESC (which is no trash, of course). I don't get what Austria is doing ... there are so many really cool artists but they send a "Trash-Pseudo-Diva".... seems like they are thinking: "Well ... no one noticed us last year so lets send a men who dresses like a woman but has a beard to grab some attention."
I know I'm gonna get disliked for this opinion 'cause many in here adore him but I can live with that.... but people please don't get me completely wrong ...I have absolutely nothing against people with a different life-style (I fear I have to point that out) ... I just don't like this person. ( I would never boo on him, btw... Yes this was an innuendo ;) )
Sooo 6 points for the song ... 0 for Wurst... but good luck anyways.

The real reason why I like this entry is because it raises discussions about gender identity, and gives some an opportunity to educate on what's respectful and what's not. It's great some folks here and even on youtube really have words of wisdom to share.

It's not a problem to dislike an act, just for clarification though, Conchita Wurst is NOT a transsexual!

I hope Austria will touch the bottom with this HORRIBLE song and singer..

We get the point, you don't like Conchita. No need to endlessly mention it.

Sorry :D I have to admit that I'm not the experienced one when it comes to those things.
But anyway the central idea stays the same: I'm not judging anybody for his life-style :)

I don't understand your point, sorry, I discuss the song and from time to time I say that I don't spam, please.. ;)
