Conchita Wurst: Bored Yet?

Daily Star.

Revealed! Some stuff that's already been revealed elsewhere!

A prominent Russian blogger, Rustem Adagamov, tweeted a picture of priests wearing full ceremonial robes with the message: “The ROC categorically opposes bearded men in dresses!”

The quip, which has been retweeted hundreds of times, was sparked by the Church’s comments against Conchita.


The Independent.

Revealed! Some Russian tweets about Conchita might be Russians taking the piss out of homophobic bigots.

'There's nothing more sinister as ministers in dresses!' etc etc.

PS Eurovision's 'Bearded lady' winner divides Russia BBC News. Swings, roundabouts...

  1. 'Was a man'
    Are they playing along with the joke that Conchita is a man in drag much in the same way they do with Dame Edna OR are they really so stupid that they can't differentiate between a drag artist and a transsexual?

    Gay man in a dress=transsexual. Yep, you can see the logic. Because every gay man who puts on some lipstick wants to be a woman (!) Must be.

    Educational standards have fallen you know. Everett was gay but nobody thought he was a chick because he put on a dress now and again.

    Maybe this is what you get when lesbians, gay men, and transsexuals are lumped together in the public's consciousness, confusion arises.
