Conde Nast faces calls for boycott after Allure names Dylan Mulvaney to mag's 'A-List'
[NYPOST] Women’s magazine Allure’s move to name controversial trans influencer
...the transexual influencer who single-handedly trashed a major American beer brand owned by a Belgian company, tainted Maybelline, and then demanded that anybody who called him/her/it a man be arrested...
to its annual "A-list" prompted calls for a boycott of the publication’s parent company, Condé Nast.

Mulvaney — whose tie-ups with Bud Light and Nike have sparked an outcry in conservative regions of the country — posted a series of photos on her Instagram account over the weekend showing her posing for a photoshoot.

"Getting my groove back," Mulvaney wrote in the caption of her Instagram account over the weekend.

"Thank you Allure for this fab shoot/putting me on the A-list!!"

Allure highlighted Mulvaney — who has more than 10 million followers on social media — as one of the "people driving and shaping the future of beauty."
He is not beautiful, merely an artistic hand with cosmetics and a fondness for playing Dress Up like a Mad Men girl.
The magazine — owned by the company with famed titles including Vogue, Vanity Fair and the New Yorker — also interviewed Mulvaney for its latest issue.

One Twitter user expressed outrage over Mulvaney "being named an ’honoree’ for the magazine’s ’A List Awards’ for being an ’innovator’ for women."

"This HAS to STOP. Keep boycotting any products associated with this propaganda," wrote another Twitter user.

Conde Nast stopped printing Allure, which was launched in 1991, at the end of last year.
Alternate headline: Dying Mag Features Dress-Up Gag.
