We’ve all heard the saying, “Don’t judge a book by its cover,” but sometimes even reality show judges need a reminder, and Panda Ross proved this on The X-Factor.
Hailing from New Mexico, Panda faced initial skepticism from the judges, especially Simon, who questioned the origin of her unique name. Despite having just recovered from pneumonia, Panda was determined to make a lasting impression.
When she began to sing, her voice captivated everyone in the room, overflowing with power and raw emotion. She didn’t just perform—she commanded the stage, earning admiration from even the most critical judges.
After her stunning performance, the judges couldn’t help but praise her. L.A. admitted, “I can’t deny how good that was… You moved this room,” while Simon, usually hard to impress, said, “Panda, you sound like a legend.”
