Conchita Wurst, Winner of Eurovision 2014

A lot has been said about Conchita Wurst's beard. How can she have a beard if she's a drag Queen? Is she not just trying to score cheap points? Is her beard a political statement?

I have just one thing to say: forget the beard. Forget the statement and just watch the performance.

I dare you to say this isn't a fantastic song (it sounds like a Bond theme!) and a great vocal performance. In Eurovision, neither of those are a given! So I'm glad a worthy winner won. And if you like the beard, that's just a plus.
