Wichita makeup artist Gypsy Freeman was very excited to win the Kat Von D Instagram makeup contest.

The winner and her guest would be flown to California to attend the launch party of a new makeup line.

But after Kat Von D discovered she was a Trump supporter they disqualified her.

Kansas.com reported:

An Instagram post showing support for President Donald Trump apparently disqualified a local makeup artist from a national contest.

Gypsy Freeman, who splits time between Wichita and Florida, last month was declared the winner of an Instagram contest sponsored by Kat Von D Beauty, according to screenshots taken by Freeman.

The winner of the Saint + Sinner Contest – and a guest – was to be flown to Los Angeles to attend the launch party of a new makeup line from Kat Von D, perhaps best known for her role on “LA Ink.” The approximate value of the prize package, which included a $500 gift card to Sephora, was $2,100.

To enter, Freeman submitted an Instagram image of an angelic figure beside a girl in an all-black outfit and thick mascara.

When Freeman was announced as the winner, curious Instagrammers went to her page and found a pro-Trump post from Election Day last year.

That evening, she received a direct message from Kat Von D’s personal Instagram account, telling her the celebrity had “drawn a personal line in the sand between myself and anyone who supports that man,” according to screenshots of the conversation.

“My launch party [and my brand] celebrates many things that Trump is against,” the celebrity went on to say, according to the screenshots. “And I just need you to know that I personally have a hard time with inviting anyone who would support such an anti-feminist, anti-homosexual/LGBT, anti-immigrant, and anti-climate change fascist such as Trump.”

Depending on the fine print I think somebody's looking at a lawsuit.

Payment or absence of payment based on voting record? That might be past lawsuit into a federal crime.

“Depending on the fine print I think somebody’s looking at a lawsuit”

Sure sounds like it to me.

Sue those pigs. How dare they try to control who one votes for by snatching away a legitimate contest win? So childish, so small minded, so pathetic. And boycott those products!

Nothing but mean and petty. Typical Hillary Voter.

Trivia Question: Wasn’t Kat Von D the one who sort of broke up Sandra Bullock’s marriage to Jesse James?

She is a famous tattoo artist, and make up personality...say goodbye to that career. Only co dependent, food stamp, and lunatics will be buying what she is selling. Any conservative will drop her like a hot potato....goodbye Kat Von D!
