After watching last night's semi-final, I looked up last years's winner Conchita Wurst, who appeared as a pundit/anchor in it, in Wikipedia. Interested to learn a probable reason for Tom Neuwirth's choice of performing pseudonym and transvestite image: "Conchita" is a Spanish idiom for vagina [cf our "Fanny"]; "Wurst" (= 'sausage') is one of the German idioms for penis.
