Conchita Wurst: Hahaha!

The Sun.

Well known and long-standing champion of gay rights, The Sun, sticks it to those evil Russian homophobes.

No other agenda here.

This Austrian Facebook page calling for Conchita to be pulled as their country's representative at Eurovision, got a whopping 36,000 likes.

Surely a campy protest outside the Austrian Embassy should be in order?

Still, it's only a larf, innit?

Cause fellas in dresses is well funny.

PS The 'Bearded Lady' tabloid tag is rather telling - as their coverage of Conchita usually treats her like she's something from a freakshow.

Just a thought...

  1. To put some perspective, the anti-Wurst FB group, made up mostly of Austrians, had far more members than Conchita's FB fan page for months, but instead media focused on Eastern European on-line petitions that hardly topped 10,000. Conchita Wurst's FB fanpage only reached 36,000 a week ago (it's now over 600,000).
