    The Wichita Eagle (http://bit.ly/2gQwtKU ) reports screenshots taken by Gypsy Freeman of Wichita show she won the Instagram contest last month. The victor was to be flown to a Los Angeles makeup line launch party.

    Freeman won with her an image of an angelic figure beside a girl in an all-black outfit and thick mascara. Instagram users later discovered her pro-Trump post from Election Day in November.

    Freeman says tattoo artist and former reality show star Kat Von D later messaged her, saying she’d “drawn a personal line in the sand between myself and anyone who supports that man.”

    Kat Von D Beauty’s parent company isn’t commenting.
