Toronto-based transgender artists stripped off mid air after they felt offended by the "inappropriate" questions a flight attendant asked them.

Nine Arsenault and Lexi Sanfino, who decided to shock the air hostess by their naked act on the WestJet flight last Friday, said that the attendant asked them to teach how to do makeup, saying that 'You know, because you used to be guys, right?,' News.com.au reported.

So, Sanfino decided to get revenge by strutting down the aisle, topless.

The duo has been arrested and Arsenault was handcuffed after refusing to stop filming Sanfino's arrest.

Arsenault and Sanfino have claimed that the officers deleted photos from their camera while in a holding cell.

Sanfino was charged with causing a disturbance, while Arsenault was released without charge.
