“大胡子美女”肯奇塔·沃斯特夺得了欧洲歌唱大赛冠军，这位由男歌手变性的“大胡子美女”一举成为全球超级明星。
The amazing transformation from male singer to bearded diva has turned Eurovision winner Conchita Wurst into a global superstar.
奥地利歌手肯奇塔·沃斯特在周六晚上的比赛中演唱了一曲《Rise Like a Phoenix in Copenhagen》，全世界约1.7亿观众见证了她获得高达290的得分。
An audience of around 170million people across the world watched the Austrian triumph when she was awarded a staggering 290 points for her performance of Rise Like a Phoenix in Copenhagen on Saturday night.
沃斯特蓄着络腮胡须，身穿鱼尾礼服，走上烟雾缭绕的舞台，深情演唱了这首歌。
Spoting a full beard and gold embellished fishtail gown, she took to the stage in front of a smokey backdrop, before giving a powerful performance of the song.
演唱后沃斯特的粉丝量大涨，有专家预测她接下来将会吸金2500万英镑（约人民币），这会使她成为1974年阿巴乐队夺冠以来最大的欧歌赛赢家。
And with the performance earning her a legion of new fans, experts are predicting she could stand to earn as much as £25million, becoming the biggest Eurovision winner since Abba, who triumphed in the 1974 competition.
但在成为极具个性的“大胡子美女”之前，这位25岁的歌手原名叫做托马斯·莱维斯，他曾在Jetzt Anders乐队中试图扬名歌坛。
But before transforming into alter-ego Conchita Wurst, the 25-year-old whose real name is Thomas Neuwirth, tried to find fame in a boyband called Jetzt Anders.
从早期的照片可以看出，托马斯下巴干净、没有胡须，这与肯奇塔·沃斯特的吸睛杀手锏“大胡子美女”形成强烈反差。

托马斯在2011年变性成为现在的肯奇塔·沃斯特，留着长发、忽闪迷人的睫毛、以及现已闻名世界的大胡子。

Conchita was then selected to represent Austria in this year’s Eurovision contest with her eventual victory sending Twitter into a frenzy, generating 5,384,678 tweets.
