Dylan Mulvaney ADMITS 'Days of Girlhood' is the 'most annoying song in the history of ever' and its 'dumb lyrics' may present young women as ditsy, neurotic shopaholics

Dylan Mulvaney has addressed concerns about her 'Days of Girlhood' song, admitting that its 'dumb lyrics' are 'annoying' and unflattering to teenagers and young women.

The trans influencer posted a video this week to answer critics who say the three-minute ditty disparages young women as unstable, sexually promiscuous shopaholics.

Mulvaney, 27, said she did not mean to ridicule women, and wanted to write a light-hearted song celebrating the man-to-girl transition she began documenting two years ago.

It's just the latest controversy around Mulvaney, whose tie-up with Bud Light last year sparked an angry backlash among conservatives that cost the brewer millions in lost sales.

'The fact that both conservatives and liberals would probably agree that this is potentially the most annoying song in the history of ever was no small task.' Mulvaney said in a TikTok post this week.

Mulvaney acknowledged that her three-minute pop song was packed with 'dumb lyrics.'

But, she said this made it 'fun,' and reminiscent of Cyndi Lauper's 1983 classic, Girls Just Want to Have Fun.

'I don't think that womanhood or girlhood is chalked up to be these like silly, frivolous things,' she said.

'I still think we should be allowed to enjoy those things. And I could have probably written a song about my pain or my trauma. But I didn't want to.'

Still, she acknowledged that it was for many listeners a 'really bad song.'

This was in part down to her 'bad music taste,' she added.

Despite the song's failings, she added, it still raises cash for the Trevor Project, an LGBTQ+ charity.

'Even when the transphobes stream the song, that money goes to queer kids,' she said. 'That's a win.'

Mulvaney last week released her song and video, in which she dances in a mini dress, a crop top, a green polka dot dress and a hot pink négligée.

The video has been watched 855 thousand times since it was released on YouTube.

In it, Mulvaney's lyrics send up women for 'overspending' and needing 'retail therapy' and having to 'pick up meds' and face a 'breakdown.'

She also says girls 'flirt for drinks' and discusses a 'walk of shame' after spending a night with a man, though she 'didn't even know his namе.'

Critics from left and right pounced on her lyrics, saying they made a mockery of young women.

In a DailyMail.com column, Amber Duke slammed the 'misogyny' coming from someone 'cosplaying a biological female.'

It's full of 'classic sexist tropes,' added Duke, that 'women are addicted to clothes' and 'can't control their emotions.'

The criticism comes nearly a year after Mulvaney's disastrous tie-up with Bud Light, which sparked a boycott and cost the company almost $400 million in US sales

Mulvaney, an out-of-work stage performer, achieved internet stardom in 2022 by launching her hit TikTok series, Days of Girlhood, in which she documents her transition from a young gay man to a 'girl.'

She's made millions of dollars by endorsing cosmetics, fashion and other products, appeared with President Joe Biden at the White House, and alongside Hollywood celebrities.

It came unstuck last April, when she posted a video to promote a Bud Light giveaway, saying the company had sent her a tallboy can with her face on it to celebrate her sex change.

This irked conservatives, who said a favorite beer had 'gone woke.'

They railed on social media and boycotted the drink, costing parent company Anheuser-Busch $400 million in sales — a 13.5 percent slump.

Musician Kid Rock, NFL player Trae Waynes and model Bri Teresi were among the high-profile faces who stoked the outrage, filming themselves shooting cans of the beer.

The fallout led to a devastating stretch for Bud Light, where it suffered repeat double-digit revenue drops on a near-weekly basis.

Mulvaney however went on to earn $2 million from promotional work last year, landing deals with Nike and Mac, and she appeared at the Golden Globes in January.

She was in December named on Forbes' 30 under 30 list.

But it remains unclear whether she can carve out a career for herself post-Bud Light.

In December, she addressed a half-empty auditorium at Penn State, where she unveiled plans for a one-woman show.

In a late-night post last month, Mulvaney ranted that she has plenty of work lined up and her '15 minutes' of fame is not over.

Wearing pajamas, rolling around in bed and repeating herself, Mulvaney insisted she had plenty of projects lined up and was 'slating things out two to three years from now.'
