This year we have a very special winner:
Conchita Wurst is a Singer from Austria. In normal life it's a man, but on stage he performs as the bearded lady. She wants to make a statement to the world: it doesn't matter if you are man, woman, gay or straight, just be who you are. Let's live in peace together...
I'm very happy she won with this statement. it's promising. Yay for Europe! You can listen to her song here. It gave me goose pimpels. Also fun to tell the Netherlands were second.

And what a spectacular name. Conchita Wurst.

I admire this wonderful freedom! but I will say that I much prefer your drawing, that the real Conchita! :)
ja fascinerend deze winnares, een heuse ster.
deed me ook denken en opnieuw kijken naar het baardenproject van ons zus, jaren terug: http://www.jet.dds.nl/baardenarchief/
women with beards
I liked Conchita's song too, there surely is something special in it. And striving for equality like this.. you need a lot of courage to do something like that. I found a nice Conchita drawing too, this time on a T-shirt: http://teespring.com/keepcalmgrowbeard :))
