Dylan Mulvaney, the influential trans personality, finds herself on a quest for fresh prospects following her fallout with Bud Light. The once highly-acclaimed Belgian beer brand faced a fierce backlash and widespread boycotts after partnering with Mulvaney for sponsored social media posts.
The partnership was met with controversy when not-for-sale beer cans featuring Mulvaney’s face led to a significant drop in Bud Light sales. Amid the turmoil, the 26-year-old influencer took to Instagram on June 29 to express her disappointment, claiming that the brand had abandoned her in the midst of the storm.
