Donald Trump was in high spirits at the FIFA World Cup 2026 draw in Washington, where a lip reader caught him giving a playful command to his wife, Melania, during a dance. The 79-year-old was seen grooving to the music at the John F. Kennedy Center as the Village People performed their hit ‘YMCA’, sparking Trump’s excitement.
Reportedly, Trump expressed his regret to Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum for missing previous performances. While enjoying the music, he turned to FIFA President Gianni Infantino, expressing his joy at the performance.
Noticing Melania’s reserved demeanor, Trump encouraged her to join in the fun. Known for his YMCA dance moves, Trump’s affinity for the song was highlighted by Victor Willis, the Village People’s frontman.
After receiving the FIFA Peace Prize, Trump celebrated with a dance and singing session with Melania. The event also featured performances by Robbie Williams and Lauryn Hill.
Trump expressed gratitude for the peace award, attributing it to his administration’s efforts in ending conflicts worldwide. Infantino praised Trump for his dedication to promoting peace and unity globally.
During the ceremony, Trump humorously suggested the NFL consider rebranding due to the naming discrepancy between American football and soccer. His remarks added a light-hearted touch to the event, which also saw celebrities like Kevin Hart and Heidi Klum in attendance.
