Because it radiates a spectre of frequencies, this means that it radiates in a continuous range of frequencies, ones with more intensity (like x-ray and ultraviolet) and others with less intensity (like the visible light). While most of the radiation is not in the visible range, there still is a part of the radiation in the visible spectre. And while this part is not the most intense part, the radiation is so large that we can see a very bright visible light.
