A fact from Samo ljubezen appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 8 September 2006. The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that anti-gay protests following the selection of the song Samo Ljubezen by drag-group Sestre in the 2002 Eurovision Song Contest led to criticism of Slovenia in the European Parliament?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2006/September.

AFAIK, Sestre are drag queens and not transsexuals. It would be good to find a source clarifying that, though first I hear of them being anything more than drag queens with regard to "gender ambiguity". Cheers, Bravada, talk - 13:18, 7 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Moreover, AFAIK this is the first time ever ANYBODY performed in drag, plus it wasn't the entire ensemble, as the ladies were accompanied by three male dancers not impersonating females on stage. Please do pay more attention to finding sources when quoting such info. I hoped better sourcing and more research would be the effect of the "ban on ESC entries" in DYK - sadly, this is not the case... :( Bravada, talk - 11:08, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I can't think of the exact year, but either Norway or Sweden had a drag queen as a backing dancer in the mid/late 1980s. I daresay I'll find out exactly when later on when I hit the Norwegian or Swedish songs. BigHaz - Schreit mich an (Review me) 02:43, 29 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

1986 Norway - there was a drag guy backing Ketil Stokkan.Blnguyen | BLabberiNg 03:10, 29 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
