Conchita Wurst took to the stage at London’s G-A-Y at Heaven last night (May 24) for her first UK performance since winning the Eurovision Song Contest earlier this month (May).

The Austrian drag queen, real name Tom Neuwirth, was introduced to the Heaven crowd by Graham Norton, whose chatshow she recently appeared on.

Wurst, clad in a black sequinned leotard, proceeded to perform for around 20 minutes, treating fans to a rendition of her winning Eurovision song Rise Like a Phoenix and her popular cover of Celine Dion’s My Heart Will Go On.

At the end of her performance, she was handed a bunch of flowers by G-A-Y owner Jeremy Joseph – who has recently welcomed popstars including Miley Cyrus, Kylie Minogue and Rita Ora to the famous Heaven stage.
