Mulvaney’s comment at the awards may have been a swipe at her critics after her disastrous Bud Light ad cost the company $40 billion, leading to corporate layoffs and stripping the company of the long-held title of America’s favorite beer.
Since the April fiasco, Anheuser-Busch has tried to maintain its reputation as an all-American company without moving away from the LGBTQ groups it has long supported.
The brand has not apologized for the campaign nor made any extra effort on it, with CEO Brendan Whitworth making a diplomatic effort in the few interviews he’s agreed to since the fallout began.
It also managed to annoy Mulvaney, who was celebrating “100 days of girlhood” when the scandal broke, by not lifting a hand when the wheels came off.
She filmed an Instagram video complaining about the brand.
Marketing director Alissa Heinerschneid was largely blamed for the ill-fated social media campaign, which saw Mulvaney receive a special, one-time can of beer with her face on it.
Heinerschneid was placed on leave after the scandal.
Mulvaney teamed up with Bud Light as part of their March Madness campaign in April and was gifted a can of light beer with her face on it – sparking outrage
Anheuser-Busch’s profits plummeted after the initial scandal. In total, the company suffered a loss of $40 billion
Many Americans viewed the partnership with Mulvaney as the last straw that pushed companies to integrate politics into consumerism.
After the Bud Light ad, Target was mobbed for its enthusiasm for Pride month, which saw stores push LGBTQ displays to the forefront and market items like “pleat-friendly swimsuits.”
Most recently, Mulvaney was invited to audition for the upcoming Broadway revival of Cabaret – in which Eddie Redmayne is expected to be cast in the male lead.
