Austria's JJ on winning Eurovision: 'My dreams came true'

Austria won the Eurovision Song Contest 2025 in Swiss host city Basel on Saturday, May 17, in the country's first victory since bearded drag queen Conchita Wurst won in 2014.

Operatic singer JJ won ahead of Israel in the world's biggest music competition, which was watched by a television audience of more than 160 million people across the world.

JJ said afterwards that his dreams had come true, adding: "I was literally screaming and crying, I am definitely going to be hoarse tomorrow but who cares."
