Swiss self-proclaimed “non-binary” rapper Nimmo has won the 68th Eurovision Song Contest with his song “The Code”.

Meanwhile, Britain’s Olly Alexander embarrassingly received zero votes from the public, even though the majority of the population voted in favor of Golan in an apparent protest against large-scale anti-Israel demonstrations.
In the end, Swiss rapper Nemo came out on top with a total of 591 votes from the public and the Eurovision jury, making him the first so-called “non-binary” person to request to be referred to by they/them pronouns. He became a performer. She won the contest and then her third contestant won the contest. The first edition of the contest in 1956 was won by Rhys Asia, and in 1988 by Celine Dion.
