Ahead of Valentine’s Day, Melania Trump was a part of celebrations at the Children’s Inn at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), where she interacted with the kids battling rare and serious diseases. During the event, a young man repeatedly flirted with the First Lady, and the video of the moment is going viral.
This young man also said to Melania – “It’s kinda hard to think straight when you’re looking at perfection in the eyes.” https://t.co/0cFgwPLdCr pic.twitter.com/V5ran1FemS

As Melania was busy interacting with the kids, a young man told her, “It’s kinda hard to think straight when you’re looking at perfection in the eyes.” The First Lady was all smiles, and she said, “He is a charmer, isn’t he?”
Turns out, this wasn’t the only time the young gentleman praised Melania. He also referred to her as a “queen.” He told the FLOTUS, “I don’t play chess, but I know a queen when I see one,” which left Melania smiling. Calling him a “charmer,” Melania joked that girls need to “watch out.”

The official account for the Office of First Lady curated moments from Melania Trump’s Valentine’s Day celebrations and wrote on X, “Love reveals itself in many forms, especially in the hardest moments of care and compassion. The Children’s Inn provides important support to children who have been diagnosed with rare and serious diseases.”
Summing up her experience, Melania added, “Returning to NIH, The Children’s Inn, is a special reminder of the warmth that exists here year-round thanks to the profound resilience of these young people and the dedication of those working to provide comfort, hope, and support during clinical trials. I wish them all a very happy Valentine’s Day.”

First Lady duties aside, Melania has been busy with the promotion of her documentary. Last week, a reporter called out the First Lady for using a White House event to promote her movie. “Why do you feel it’s appropriate to use an official White House event to promote your movie?” the journalist asked.
Dismissing the allegations, Melania Trump said that “this is not a promotion” and she added, “We are here celebrating the release of the hostages of Aviva [Siegel] and Keith [Siegel]. They were in, uh, Washington, DC. Uh, they called me, they said they would like to come over to thank me and to, uh, to give, uh, hugs, and that’s why we are here. It’s nothing to do with promotion.”
Despite the underwhelming box office performance and the largely negative reviews from critics, US President Donald Trump has actively been cheering for wife, Melania Trump’s documentary. In a recent press briefing, Trump said, “It’s the number one documentary in 19 years, can you believe this? What do I get out of it? Nothing out of it. Now I have…so I had a top model, now I have a top movie star.”
Even before the film was released, Donald Trump had claimed that the tickets to the movie were selling out fast. However, netizens were quick to call out his claims about the Melania movie ticket sales by sharing screenshots of empty theatres.
