MACHU PICCHU, PERU: Dylan Mulvaney has posted a job advertisement on her social media post as she is apparently looking for new opportunities after her Bud Light fallout. The Belgian beer giant received backlash and boycotts for their tie-up with the trans influencer following sponsored social media posts.

The posts shared in March showed not-for-sale cans of beer that carried Mulvaney's face on the cover. Following the controversial partnering with the influencer, the beer brand witnessed its steepest drop in sales, according to New York Post. On June 29, the 26-year-old took to Instagram to claim the brand abandoned her amid the controversy.

The TikTok personality who previously said she has been "scared to leave" her house after she receive "more bullying and transphobia than I could have ever imagined," left the US and is currently in Peru to "feel safe."

On Wednesday, July 19, Mulvaney took to Instagram to post a job advertisement seeking "speaking opportunities" on college campuses. "Booking speaking opportunities for the upcoming 23/24 school year and would love to come to visit," she wrote on her Instagram story and added "love ya!" to her two million followers. Mulvaney mentioned an email address for sending her "serious inquiries."

Mulvaney as a speaker

The website of the Creative Arts Agency (CAA) that represents Mulvaney has listed her as a speaker. The talent agency mentioned she will be available to talk on topics including LGBTQIA+, women's empowerment, social media as well as inclusion, equity, and diversity.

Following the Bud Light issue, the influencer has mostly been inactive on social media and as someone who has endorsed several brands like Nike, Ulta Beauty, Kate Spade, MAC Cosmetics, and Charlotte Tilbury has only pitched a hair product after the backlash.

For each of her promotional posts, she earns between $50,000 and $80,000. Before the Bud Light backlash, she was a frequent podcast guest and panelist speaker. The 26-year-old who transitioned from male to female in March 2022 talked about her journey to fame while she took part in the Forbes Power Women's Summit in September 2022.

For the discussion of anti-trans legislation, she was among the six progressive panelists to interact with President Joe Biden in October 2022. In May, Mulvaney appeared as a podcast guest on "Dear Chelsea," an iHeart Radio-produced podcast by Chelsea Handler, and in March, she appeared on 'The Drew Barrymore Show'.
