It takes a lot to get me mad but when I do get mad I… explode. Sorry, not sorry.

Aaaaand…here’s the Semite of the Day, in honor of Eurovision: Sharon Cohen, known professionally as Dana International.

Born in Tel Aviv, to a Jewish family with Yemeni and Romanian roots, came out as a trans woman at thirteen, and won the 1998 Eurovision.

To those who had opposed her representing Israel at the event, she said afterward:

“My victory proves God is on my side. I want to send my critics a message of forgiveness and say to them: try to accept me and the kind of life I lead. I am what I am and this does not mean I don’t believe in God, and I am part of the Jewish nation.”

Strong, brave, talented, gutsy, and absolutely beautiful.
