After a week of controversy, trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney has hit back at critics by breaking out in song on social media.
“It’s hard to see the light right now. This song felt fitting given the week I’ve had,” Mulvaney wrote on TikTok while singing the Stephen Sondheim tune “No One is Alone” from “Into the Woods.”
The performance was from an event she hosted at the Rainbow Room earlier this month. “Thank you all for making me feel supported, i am not alone 
#trans“
“Whether you’re a parent or you’re a child or you’re young or you’re old or you’re trans or you’re not, we are all just trying our best here aren’t we,” she said, according to the clip.
The lyrics of the song include the words: “Hard to see the light now. Just don’t let it go. Things will come out right now. We can make it so. Someone is on your side. No one is alone.”
I guess Nike couldn’t find a female athlete to sell sports bras…🤷🏼♀️ https://t.co/IvLxCZ6W3E

Last week, Mulvaney’s new ad campaigns with Bud Light and Nike ruffled the feathers of critics from country star Travis Tritt and Kid Rock — who tweeted a video of himself shooting cases of Bud Light — to female Olympians and even Caitlyn Jenner, who said of Mulvaney’s Nike sports bra endorsement: “It is a shame to see such an iconic American company go so woke! … This is an outrage.”
On Saturday, tennis legend Martina Navratilova tweeted about the controversy, and then got into a heated back and forth on the social media platform.
