In a moment being shared across the globe, a transgender X Factor contestant has bravely stood up to a disrepectful judge. Fifi Janevski was forced to reveal her gender identity after a judged questioned her and called her a "tranny". During the judge's critique, the judge states, "I don’t know what to tell you, there is two of you, haha… Filip, Fifi, please, sing me another song. I’m a bit shocked. I’m not too conservative." Janevski responds with a the chorus from Christina Aguilera's "Beautiful": "I am beautiful no matter what they say. Words can't bring me down. So don't you bring me down today."
