Trump hosts Kennedy Center honorees and teases hosting skills: 'I'm sure they'll give me great reviews'

US President Hosts Kennedy Center Honorees, Teases Hosting Skills

In a ceremony held at the Oval Office on Saturday evening, US President Donald Trump hosted this year's class of 2025 Kennedy Center honorees. The recipients included country music singer George Strait, actor-singer Michael Crawford, actor Sylvester "Sly" Stallone, and members of the rock band Kiss.

Trump described the event as a 'great honor' and praised the honorees as having inspired millions of Americans with their work. He also took this opportunity to showcase his own hosting skills, saying he was confident that the honoree would give him positive reviews, drawing a comparison to late-night TV host Jimmy Kimmel, whom Trump jokingly referred to as 'horrible'.
 
Trump's hosting skills? πŸ€” I'm not impressed. Hosting is about being humble and letting others shine, not about stealing the spotlight like he did tonight. The honorees were there for their work, not his ego trip πŸ’β€β™‚οΈ. And what's with all the jabs at Kimmel? Classy move, Mr. President πŸ™„. A good host puts everyone at ease, not makes them feel like they're on a talk show πŸ˜’.
 
I'm not sure about Trump's hosting skills πŸ€”... I mean, has he ever hosted anything other than his rallies? He's more comfortable with a crowd of supporters than, say, international dignitaries or celebrities. And what's with the comparison to Jimmy Kimmel? Trump's going to try to spin this as some kind of 'alternative' hosting style, but let's be real, it's just him being... well, him 😊. And why did he have to bring up Kimmel in the first place? Trying to deflect from his own lack of charisma? Newsflash: if you want to host a big event, practice, practice, practice! πŸ“Ί
 
πŸ™ƒ Still not sure why we need a president doing hosting gigs. Can't they just stick to the job? 😐 Trump's trying too hard to be funny and it just comes off awkward. Reminds me of when I try to make small talk at parties and end up sounding like a total weirdo... πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ Anyway, happy for George Strait and Michael Crawford, but let's keep the hosting duties to people who actually care about doing it, not just using it as a publicity stunt. 😊
 
I don't get why the President feels the need to show off his hosting skills at the Kennedy Center Honors ceremony. It's not like he's trying out for a job on Saturday Night Live 🀣. And what's with the Jimmy Kimmel comparison? He's always been a decent host, and I'm sure he'd give this guy a hard time if they ever met in real life πŸ˜‚. But seriously, can't we just appreciate the honorees' work without the President's ego getting involved? It's like he's trying to distract us from the fact that he's hosting an event at the Oval Office instead of actually doing his job πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ. Anyway, I'm sure it was a nice ceremony and all, but let's not forget why we're there in the first place - to celebrate some amazing artists and musicians! πŸ’₯
 
I don’t usually comment but I have to say, it seems kinda weird for the President to be hosting a award ceremony like this. I mean, it’s not exactly his area of expertise, right? πŸ€” It was cool that he gave shoutouts to all the honorees and praised their work, but still, it felt a bit awkward having him trying to host like a late-night TV show. And what with Jimmy Kimmel being so popular and all...I don’t know if Trump really needed to make that joke πŸ™„
 
I just got back from the most amazing road trip with my friend last month πŸš—πŸŒ„ we drove all the way out to Big Sur and saw some of the most incredible views I've ever seen in my life! The coastline was so rugged and wild, it felt like we were on another planet 🌊. And the best part was just chillin' with my friend, singing along to our favorite songs at the top of our lungs πŸ˜‚. It's funny, because when Trump is hosting events, I feel like he's trying too hard to be cool and funny, but sometimes that's just not his vibe πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ. Anyway, it was so great catching up with my friend and making some amazing memories!
 
I mean, can you believe it? The President of the US is trying to host a fancy ceremony and it's just so... awkward πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ. I get that he wants to show off his hosting skills, but do we really need to see him try to be funny like Jimmy Kimmel? πŸ˜‚ It's just not his thing, you know? And what's with the "horrible" comment about Jimmy Kimmel? Classy move, Donald πŸ‘Ž. Anyway, I'm glad George Strait and Michael Crawford are getting some recognition for their amazing work, but let's keep the President's hosting skills on the back burner, okay? πŸ™
 
So the President thinks hosting is all about being a TV star πŸ“Ί? I mean, it's cool that he's trying to flex his hosting muscles, but does it really matter who hosts an event at the Oval Office? It's not like we're paying good money just to watch him smile and wave. What's more important is what these honorees have done for our culture and society. I mean, George Strait has been making music that people love for decades, while Trump was still playing golf πŸŒοΈβ€β™‚οΈ. At least Strait's talent can't be bought or sold like a bunch of bad business deals πŸ’Έ. And what about the fact that some of these honorees are actually talented artists, not just politicians in disguise? It's all about who's trying to be relevant and get attention, if you ask me πŸ€”.
 
awww this is so awesome!!! 🀩 i'm loving how Trump is keeping it light and funny, even with all the jokes about Jimmy Kimmel πŸ˜‚. but you know what's even more amazing? the fact that these incredible artists are being honored for their talents! πŸ’« George Strait, Michael Crawford, Sylvester Stallone, and Kiss... what an epic lineup 🀘. i'm sure it was a blast to have them all in one place πŸŽ‰. and Trump's hosting skills... hmm, let's just say i'm keeping my eyes peeled on those reviews πŸ“ΊπŸ˜‚
 
lol what's up with these Kennedy Center honors? like, it's not even the Oscars or Grammys πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ. And can we talk about how awkward it is for a president to be hosting some awards ceremony in their own office? I mean, I guess Trump wanted to show off his "hospitality" skills... more like " autocratic" skills 😏. And btw, who needs Jimmy Kimmel when you've got the Prez trying to roast him on live TV 🎀. I'm sure it was all just a big joke... right? πŸ’β€β™‚οΈ
 
omg can you imagine trump trying to be a comedian lol like he's gonna kill on stage with those guys, good luck with that πŸ˜‚. i mean seriously though the kennedy center honorees are legends they deserve so much more than a rookie hosting gig from a guy who still thinks he's got game πŸ™„. and btw what's up with trump comparing himself to jimmy kimmel? poor dude just tried to steal a bit from someone 10x his age πŸ˜…. but hey at least it was a 'great honor' for the honorees, that's all that matters πŸ’•.
 
😊 so the president thinks he's some kinda entertainer now? hosting the kennedy center thingy is one thing but hosting the oscars? i dont think so 🎬...and what's with the comparison to jimmy kimmel? poor guy got roasted on live tv all the time...anyway, its cute that trump thinks hes funny but comedy is hard, maybe stick to being president? πŸ˜‚
 
omg can u imagine a presidential host having to keep the energy up for hours lol so the kennedy center honorees were like super talented and stuff but did trump's hosting skills really pass the test? πŸ€” i mean he had some awkward moments and seemed kinda out of his element, what if the performers didn't give him good vibes after all? 😳 anyway gotta say though, george strait's country music is literally the best πŸŽΈπŸ’ƒ michael crawford's acting skills are also super impressive πŸ€“ but yeah, trump's hosting stint was def a learning experience for him πŸ“šπŸ’‘
 
omg, can't believe trump hosted the kennedy center thingy 🀯 i mean, those are some big names he's got there... george strait and kiss? that's like a whole different world from his usual stuff πŸ˜‚ anyway, i'm not sure if he's really hosting skills though... i kinda liked jimmy kimmel better 🎀 and yeah, the guy did seem a bit nervous at times πŸ˜… but hey, it was all in good fun, right? still, gotta wonder what kind of prep went into that event... must've been some serious rewrites to make him sound so smooth πŸ’Ό
 
I'm so stoked to see all these talented artists being recognized for their amazing work! πŸŽ‰ It's really cool that President Trump is giving them the respect they deserve. And haha, I can just imagine him trying to host a fancy event, it's almost like he's trying out for his own version of Saturday Night Live πŸ˜‚. But seriously, it's great to see the Kennedy Center honors bringing people together and celebrating the arts. I'm sure George Strait, Michael Crawford, Sylvester Stallone, and the Kiss band members are all super grateful for this recognition πŸ™. And who knows, maybe President Trump will surprise us with his hosting skills after all! πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ Maybe we'll even get to see a funny Jimmy Kimmel impersonation on some late-night talk show πŸ˜„.
 
I'm literally dying over here πŸ˜‚πŸ€£. The guy's got no idea how to host an event without making it about himself. Like, what's next? He's gonna start saying he can do the intro and then just wing it πŸ™„. I mean, I've seen more smooth hosting skills on a reality TV show πŸ‘€. And what's with the Jimmy Kimmel comparison? That's just low πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ. The guy's trying to be funny but it just comes off as awkward. Can't believe he's actually trying to sell himself to these honorees...like they're not already legends in their own right πŸ’β€β™‚οΈ. This is just sad for the Kennedy Center, I feel for them πŸ€•.
 
πŸ˜‚ oh man, can you believe trump is trying to flex his hosting muscles now? 🀣 like, come on, he's hosted the oscar red carpet and it was a disaster πŸ˜‚. and what's with comparing himself to jimmy kimmel? that guy is actually funny and talented! meanwhile, these kennedy center honorees are legends in their own right 🎸 george strait is a country music icon, michael crawford has been slaying the stage for decades, sly stallone is a true Hollywood legend, and kiss is still rocking to this day 🀟 i'm all about supporting artists who have made significant contributions to their craft, not some politician trying to steal the spotlight 😊
 
so trump is hosting the kennedy center thingy? sounds pretty cool πŸŽ‰ but what's up with all this "great honor" vibes? can't he just acknowledge their talents and let them shine? instead of always trying to be the centre of attention himself. 😊 by the way, george strait is gonna get roasted for dissing jimmy kimmel on live tv. that's some crazy stuff 🀣
