White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt’s Makeup Artist Faces Harassment and Plans Baby Shower
Brittany Danielle, the makeup artist who prepares White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt for briefings and appearances, says her role has expanded to include personal tasks such as planning Leavitt’s baby shower. Danielle, who began working with Leavitt during a Fox News assignment, arrives at the White House before sunrise to style Leavitt’s hair and makeup before a tight schedule of meetings and media events.
Danielle also reports receiving online death threats and harassment because of her association with the press secretary. She told IW Features, “I was getting death threats,” and has responded by making her social media private and ignoring hostile headlines while continuing her daily duties at the White House.
