Dylan Mulvaney takes to Instagram to ask for work after Bud Light flap

Trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney is looking to cash in on her newfound notoriety in the wake of the Bud Light fiasco by “booking speaking opportunities” on college campuses.

Mulvaney — who recently escaped to Peru to “feel safe” from the backlash and boycotts hounding her and the fizzling beer brand — offered up her services in an Instagram post Wednesday.

“Booking speaking opportunities for the upcoming 23/24 school year and would love to come visit,” she told her 2 million followers.

She included an email address “for serious inquiries” and added “love ya!”

On Creative Arts Agency’s (CAA) website — the talent agency that represents Mulvaney — she’s listed as a speaker who’s available to talk on topics such as LGBTQIA+ advocacy, social media, women’s empowerment as well as diversity, equity and inclusion.

The 26-year-old has seen her influence wither since the disastrous tie-up with Bud Light, which has jeopardized the brand’s decades-long reign as the nation’s top-selling beer and drained parent company Anheuser-Busch of $27 billion in value.

The most recent figures released by Nielsen IQ data provided by Bump Williams Consulting showed that Bud Light sales dropped 23.6% in the one-week period ended July 8 compared to the same period in 2022.

But since the infamous post touting Bud Light on April 1, Mulvaney has only pitched a hair product while mostly avoiding social media.

At the beginning of this year, Mulvaney posted brand endorsements to her social media promoting the likes of Ulta Beauty, Nike, Kate Spade, Charlotte Tilbury and MAC Cosmetics.

The influencer even worked with KitchenAid and Instacart, as well as tampon company Tampax in another controversial move.

According to the Washington Examiner, each sponsored post Mulvaney shares earns her between $50,000 and $80,000.

Mulvaney, who transitioned from male to female in March 2022, had been a frequent panelist speaker and podcast guest before the Bud Light controversy.

Though speaking at universities may be a new venture for Mulvaney, she’s no stranger to the spotlight. In October, she was one of six progressive panelists to meet with President Biden to discuss anti-trans legislation.

In September 2022, Mulvaney participated in the Forbes Power Women’s Summit and talked about her rise to fame.

One month later, she was one of six progressive panelists to meet with President Biden to discuss anti-trans legislation.

She appeared on “The Drew Barrymore Show” in March and was a guest on Chelsea Handler’s iHeart Radio-produced podcast, “Dear Chelsea,” in May.
