Austria has won the Eurovision Song Contest 2025 in Swiss host city Basel, with the country's first victory since bearded drag queen Conchita Wurst won in 2014.
Operatic singer JJ won just ahead of Israel with his song Wasted Love in the world's biggest music competition, which was watched by more than 160 million people across the world.
The win was Austria's third in the competition, following Conchita's success in 2014 and Udo Juergens' victory in 1966.
JJ beat 25 other competitors during the grand final in the Swiss city of Basel.
Thirty-seven countries sent performers to this year's Eurovision.Â
Eleven were knocked out by public voting in semifinals, including Australia's Go-Jo (Marty Zambotto), with his tongue-in-cheek Milkshake Man.
