I generally find Dylan Mulvaney a bit boring, but things are getting a bit more interesting today.
After imploding the company, Dylan has now turned on Bud Light.
That didn’t take long!
How absolutely catty!
Hey, maybe she is turning into a woman….
I digress.
Earlier today Dylan posted this message to TikTok complaining about how awful this whole experience has been on her (him? her? I don’t know anymore).
Sounds terrible for you Dylan.
The worst part?
Quote: “Bud Light never reached out.”
Dylan, they’re probably just a little busy trying to salvage the company and didn’t have a ton of extra spare time to lob you a phone call.
Hilarious!
Anyway, watch in his/her own words, don’t take my word for it:
@dylanmulvaney Trans people like beer too. 🏳️⚧️🍻
CBS had more to report on the story:
Transgender TikTok star Dylan Mulvaney said Bud Light failed to support her or even reach out after she became the focus of conservative backlash stemming from a video she posted featuring a personalized can sent to her by the company.
ADVERTISEMENT“For a company to hire a trans person and then not publicly stand by them is worse, in my opinion, than not hiring a trans person at all,” Mulvaney said in a video on Thursday. “It gives customers permission to be as transphobic and hateful as they want.”
The 26-year-old, who has 10.6 million followers on TikTok, detailed her experience working with Bud Light, a company she said she loved. Mulvaney said she filmed one Instagram video on April 1 with a customized Bud Light can that had her face on it, which she said the company sent her.
“I’m bringing it up because what transpired from that video was more bullying and transphobia than I could have ever imagined,” Mulvaney said.
She said she took time to respond to the backlash because she was waiting for the anger to die down and for the brand to reach out to her — two things that haven’t happened, according to the social media star.
“I should have made this video months ago, but I didn’t and I was scared and I was scared of more backlash,” Mulvaney said. “I patiently waited for things to get better, but surprise, they haven’t really. And I was waiting for the brand to reach out to me, but they never did.”
Mulvaney, who grew her social media presence with her “Days of Girlhood” series, said the hate she’s received because of the collaboration has made her feel personally guilty for what happened and fearful for her safety.
“For months now, I’ve been scared to leave my house, I have been ridiculed in public, I’ve been followed,” the influencer said. “I have felt a loneliness that I wouldn’t wish on anyone.”
She also noted that the online attacks directed at her have reverberated throughout the trans community.
ADVERTISEMENT“The hate doesn’t end with me. It has serious and grave consequences for the rest of our community,” Mulvaney said. “To turn a blind eye and pretend everything is okay, it just isn’t an option right now.”
Mulvaney lamented that LGBTQ+ rights and support are still considered controversial.
“There should be nothing controversial or divisive about working with us,” she said. “Caring about the LGBTQ+ community requires a lot more than just a donation somewhere during Pride Month.”
These were my two favorite comments to the video:
Hilarious, right?
The whole staged video of her drinking beer and trying to convince us she just as manly as other dudes (wait, I’m not sure that came out right) made me think immediately of that Elizabeth Warren video awkwardly drinking beer in her kitchen trying to win voters.
Remember that beauty?
When she thanks her husband for “being here”.
Where else would he be Liz, he lives there!
I will take any excuse I can find to replay this beauty….
FLASHBACK: Elizabeth Warren Tells Husband “Thank you for being here”
I was reminded of this old clip from Elizabeth Warren today and it had me laughing so much as I remembered it that I had to share it with you
It’s one of my favorite videos and cracks me up each time it’s SO BAD!
We all thought Kevin Spacey posted the creepiest home video in his kitchen when he posted his cringe-worthy “Let Me Be Frank video…
Remember that?
Then Elizabeth Warren came along and said “Hold My Beer, I can top that!”
Or did she say “Let me get a beer”?
Anyway, the point is, Warren shot a cringe-worthy home video in her kitchen that many think has dethroned Spacey as the awkward video of the year.
Take a look:
I have so many questions……
Like, why does it seem so incredibly staged?
Who says “I’m gonna get me a beer” and who does it so awkwardly?
Why is she so awkward?
Why does she thank her husband for being here? Where Liz, in your house? Thank you for being here? What? Who has ever said that to their spouse?
Why is this so creepy in fake?
Is this what we have to look forward to in her 2020 campaign?
It appears I wasn’t the only one with questions, even CBS News posted this video poking fun at the horrible video and posing many of the same questions I had:
Of course Fox News also ripped the video calling her “Inauthentic in everything she does”.
Take a look:
Don Jr. picked up on the CBS video:
But perhaps the best line of all goes of course to our President, Donald J. Trump when he said this of Warren:
