\n\tMore than three years after sparking conservative backlash with her Bud Light social media partnership, Dylan Mulvaney<\/a> was as surprised as anyone to hear her name in Donald Trump<\/a>\u2018s mouth at the rescheduled White House Correspondents\u2019 Dinner.<\/p>\n

\n\tCounting \u201cfour times\u201d the POTUS mentioned her name in his speech on Friday, the Broadway actress, TikTok personality and transgender advocate reacted to being \u201cthe one that got away\u201d for MAGA men after Trump attempted to roast her in his hour-long \u201cdiss track\u201d at the WHCA\u2019s annual event.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cFirstly, I would like to congratulate CNN\u2019s Kaitlan Collins<\/a> on her award and tell her that I\u2019m incredibly honored to be compared to her in any way, and I hope that she keeps doing all the great work,\u201d prefaced Mulvaney in a TikTok video<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tAfter the WHCA awarded Collins the Excellence in Presidential News Coverage Under Deadline Pressure, Trump joked in his set<\/a> that he \u201cthought Kaitlan had really made it big with a major new sponsorship, but then I informed her that it wasn\u2019t her on the Bud Light can, it was Dylan Mulvaney,\u201d to which the audience had no reaction.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cAnd Dylan Mulaney cost Bud Light $35 billion dollar in market cap,\u201d Trump continued as the crowd stayed silent. \u201cThat was the worst commercial ever made, by the way, for those few people that want to hear that. Most people don\u2019t care, but I would. I wouldn\u2019t want to hire Dylan anytime soon. Think of it, they hired Dylan Mulaney and their market cap has gone down by $35 billion. Who wrote that commercial?\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tNoting the Bud Light video Trump mentioned was more than three years ago, Mulvaney said in her video, \u201cMind you, I\u2019ve been kind of flying under the radar, keeping up a pretty low profile, just doing my little musicals, singing, dancing, and yet I am still his topic of conversation all these years later. It seems to me that I might be like the one that got away for these men. I am permanently burned into their retinas. I am microchipped into their minds.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tMulvaney added, \u201cMaybe being publicly mocked and criticized by this administration is actually the greatest compliment of all, because it puts me in the company of some of the most brilliant, empathetic people in our world today. \u2026 They want to use their power to take away my freedom. But what they don\u2019t understand is that my freedom has zero contingency on what they can provide for me, because my freedom is fully dependent on the moment that I acknowledged my real authentic self and every day since, and sharing that with the world is the icing on the cake.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThey don\u2019t want me to be able to share that,\u201d she continued. \u201cBecause it would mean young people realizing that, if someone like me can be themselves and find success and freedom, then they can find success and freedom for themselves too.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tIn April 2023, Bud Light sent a can of their beer with Mulvaney\u2019s face on it to her, which she featured in a TikTok video, prompting intense conservative backlash<\/a> and a boycott of the brand.<\/p>\n

\n\tAfter spectacularly bombing with his WHCD<\/a> speech, Trump continued to take swipes at his enemies on Truth Social over the weekend with a flood of AI-generated images, including one post<\/a> featuring Collins\u2019 face on Mulvaney\u2019s body in the Bud Light video.<\/p>\n
