WASHINGTON, DC: Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance has been under scrutiny since he entered the 2024 race as Donald Trump's running mate.

Since drawing flak for his past comments on "childless cat ladies," the Ohio senator is the focus of a new rumor: Does he wear eyeliner?

His wife, Usha Vance, has finally addressed the speculations about her 40-year-old husband's beauty practices to pop out his cerulean eyes. Her clarification put an end to the rumors, though some suggested the Republican was born with it or it was a result of the shape of his eyelids.

Notably, the senators' eyelashes have attracted admirers, including Trump.

"Trump has repeatedly commented favorably on his 'beautiful' blue eyes and long eyelashes," reported The Bulwark. Before picking Vance as his running mate, the real estate mogul publicly praised the senator's appearance, claiming he looked like "a young Abraham Lincoln."



 

The VP's eyelashes took center stage amid his other remarks given to the media recently, which aimed to soften his image after a rocky start to the campaign.

In a podcast interview with  Nelk Boys last week, he discussed being too old for Vegas invites, the difficult vetting process he and his wife came across, and how he demanded his son to "shut the hell up for 30 seconds about Pikachu" when Trump called to offer him the running mate position.

During a fundraiser for Vice President and presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris' Saturday Night Live' cast member Cecily Strong took a dig at Vance's eyeliner.

"Normally one of the sharpest people on SNL, Strong this time collaborated with former SNL writers to pen a series of potshots, most aimed at Vance including one focusing on his rumored use of eyeliner. JD Vance looks like a composite of every guy that's called you a b***h on Bumble," she said, according to Times Now.
