Controversial transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney described being worn down by the backlash stemming from the LGBT advocate's partnership with Bud Light.
"Haters really wore me down for a second," Mulvaney told Chelsea Handler on the Thursday episode of Handler's podcast Dear Chelsea."That's what I think a lot of these haters don't realize, is that the mental effects of misgendering in the media, it breaks my heart. Because you know there are people calling me a man, and I don't, right now, I feel like I'm not even processing any of it.
Dressed like Audrey Hepburn from Breakfast at Tiffany's, wearing a black dress, black gloves, an updo hairstyle, and a necklace, Mulvaney posted a promotional video carrying five Bud Light cans. Last month, during the week ranging from April 17 to April 22, Bud Light sales fell 26.1% from what they were a year ago.
