US President Donald Trump's legal team have held an extraordinary press conference to make their case for overturning the election results, claiming the election was stolen by "crooks" and infiltrated by "Communist money". Video / Fox News
Former New York mayor and now Donald Trump's lawyer Rudy Giuliani gave a press conference yesterday that was filled with conspiracy theories and lies about election fraud in the US.
Despite that, the most controversial and discussed thing about the event was probably the bizarre cosmetic malfunction Giuliani suffered duringhis speech, which saw a weird black liquid drip down the side of his face.

While the majority of people assume it was his black hair dye oozing out, others have cast some doubts over the strange liquid.
"He was literally dyeing up there today," comedian Jimmy Kimmel said of Giuliani's look.

Another expert suspects the culprit might be mascara, which Giuliani could have used to darken his sideburns.
"Sideburns are more grey than the rest of the head," Mirko Vergani, creative colour director at the Drawing Room in Manhattan, explained. "You can apply mascara to touch the grey side up a bit so it looks more natural."
The Daily Beast also spoke to a cosmetic professional, who pointed to a different possibility: that the dye could be coming from the fake tan on Giuliani's face, rather than his hair.
"He looks like to be wearing a decent amount of fake tan or bronzer or some kind of face makeup," Blackstones colourist and educator Patti O'Gara said.
"So if it's not a shitty hair dye situation, it could be fake tan dripping because it does streak like that when you sweat. It's hard to tell where it's originating from – his hair or his skin."
