He said he wasn't offended when Williams asked him what his "birth name" was. https://t.co/AbnOY6rxvF

Robbie Williams, popstar and former member of British boy band Take That, landed himself in hot water over the tone deaf question he asked a trans man as a judge on ITV's X Factor this past weekend

Hope he's actually ok with it and not just saying that cause the producers told him to be ok with it.

100% it’s offensive and was coached by producers

There’s no way i would ever tolerate a question like that. I don’t know any Transwomen that would be OK with it.

Why would you call Felix a transwoman, when he's FTM ?

Some people will sell their soul for their 15 mins

This show is scripted af, it was obvious they were just trying to make the transgender aspect a key in this person's background clip for the show, cause in no way do you segway what they asked him in the clip naturally, they were clearly trying to fish for it specifically to tell the audience. The producers of this show are fucking idiots. The show in general is a mess and this season's panel sucks, also, Robbies wife is a judge? Why?
