Austria's ESC Hope JJ Surprise Guest at Conchita Wurst Concert in Basel
At the concert, Wurst also made a joke about the fact that she went unrecognized in Basel the day before. "I love Basel! Even if no one recognized me yesterday." Tom Neuwirth had shared a humorous video on Instagram on Sunday showing him in Basel - where he remained unrecognized. Towards the end of the concert, there was also the song that changed Conchita's life, as she recounted. The song "Rise Like A Phoenix", which has legendary status among ESC fans, was sung in a stripped-down, guitar version.
The surprise came at the very end: Austria's current ESC act JJ came on stage. Together, the two acts from Austria sang "Wasted Love" - a powerful and dramatic concert finale. Under the motto "Diversity Day", there were several concerts on Monday in the Eurovision Village. Conchita Wurst's concert was over quickly: the show lasted just 30 minutes.
