Dylan Mulvaney has hit back at U.S. President Donald Trump after he mocked the trans advocate, actress and singer in his White House Correspondents’ Dinner speech on Friday.

“My name is Dylan Mulvaney and the president said my name four times in his speech on Friday night,” she began a TikTok video response posted on Sunday evening.

At Friday’s rescheduled dinner, which had been postponed after a gunman opened fire at the original event in April, Trump mentioned Mulvaney after CNN’s Kaitlan Collins accepted an award for her covering the White House. Trump compared the two women and brought up the 2023 Bud Light controversy, where customers boycotted the beer brand after Mulvaney posted a social media ad featuring her face on a can.
