VIENNA Dopo aver vinto lo European Song Contest 2014 Conchita Wurst si esibisce a Vienna davanti al segretario generale dell’Onu, Ban Ki-moon.
Già ad ottobre Conchita si era esibita a Bruxelles di fronte a membri e dipendenti del parlamento europeo e in quell’occasione aveva annunciato di voler dedicare la sua fama e la sua voce alla promozione della tolleranza e alla lotta alle discriminazioni. E così la barbuta drag-queen austriaca che all’anagrafe risponde al nome di Thomas Neuwirth, ha avuto l’occasione di cantare a Vienna davanti al segretario generale dell’Onu, Ban Ki-moon, proprio per “favorire il rispetto e la tolleranza reciproca”, ha reso noto il Palazzo di Vetro.
