Who is Alexis Black? Trans Person Confronted by Singer Tish Hyman at Gold's Gym

Singer Tish Hyman recently came under scrutiny after a heated argument at a California Gold's Gym, where she expressed frustration about sharing the women’s locker room with transgender individuals. One of the people in the viral video has been identified as Alexis Black.

The clash, captured on video, led to Hyman’s removal from the Gold's Gym location at the Beverly Center. According to reports, the facility is now managed by EoS Fitness following their acquisition of several Gold's Gym venues in Southern California in late October.

Hyman, recognized for tracks like Subway Art and Home for Christmas, said her anger was fueled not by a single event but by repeated uncomfortable experiences. Speaking on TMZ Live, the 42-year-old described feeling uneasy and frightened over interactions with trans individuals at the gym.

“She noted that the trans people were rude and threatening towards her, reportedly calling her ‘b**ch’ on many occasions.”

Hyman added that she was frustrated by what she perceived as the gym’s failure to ensure her safety. On social media, she shared an emotional account of one such encounter.

“Today he saw me walk into the women’s room, followed me in and called me a bitch. I ran out into the locker room crying and screaming.”
