x factor judges thought she was lip syncing
Aida Nikolaychuk Aida Yurijivna Nikolaychuk,[1] sometimes spelled Nikolaichuk, (Ukrainian: Аїда Юріївна Ніколайчук) is a Ukrainian pop singer and model. She was the winner of the third season of Ukraine's X-Factor TV talent competition in 2012. She drew special attention during the show's second season when judges interrupted her performance of Polina Gagarina's Lullaby (Колыбельная, Kalybelnaya),[2][3] suspecting her voice was actually a digital recording. They challenged her to sing the song a cappella. Although visibly surprised, Nikolaychuk sang the song equally well without accompaniment.
