Not only is the singing contest quite competitive, there
also seems to be a secondary competition going on to see which contestant can

include…
- Austria's Conchita Wurst and her iconic style (2014)
- Finland's Lordi and their monster music group (2006)
3. Iconic attire always wins...
Eurovision’s hilarious variety of outfits have made
history upstaging the music. Sequins, perms, feathers, ridiculous headgear, and
superhero costumes – we’ve seen it all. Some of the best styles include…
- Scooch’s PanAm-inspired attire (2014)
- Jedward performed 'Lipstick' wearing matching red
crystal-embellished jackets (2011)
- InCulto whipping off their trousers mid-show to reveal
these silver glittery hot pants (2010)

4. You must appreciate Conchita Wurst’s unique style...
In 2014 Conchita Wurst of Austria walked away the
Eurivision winner and a global celebrity on account of her unique style which
includes stunning makeup and a beard. While growing a beard can be trickier,
you can easily recreate her makeup style by watching YouTube Videos or in your
YouCam Makeup App!
