U.S. President Donald Trump hosted the Kennedy Center Honors recipients at the White House, but during the ceremony, the attention was drawn more to the Peace Prize in the Oval Office than to the famous personalities present. This award, presented to Trump by FIFA President Gianni Infantino, was prominently placed at the head of the table. Trump's act of showing the award to his guests one by one and keeping it in the most visible spot led to comments that he "doesn't take his long-awaited award out of his sight."
U.S. President Donald Trump hosted the recipients of the Kennedy Center Honors at the White House. During the ceremony held in the Oval Office, Trump presented medals to famous actor Sylvester Stallone, members of the band KISS, singer Gloria Gaynor, British actor Michael Crawford, and country music artist George Strait, who is referred to as his representative in Hollywood.
AT THE HEAD OF THE TABLE
One detail that caught attention in a photo of Trump with the guests in the Oval Office was that he placed the Peace Prize awarded by FIFA President Gianni Infantino at the very head of the table. Next to the Peace Prize was the World Cup.
ALWAYS IN FRONT OF HIS EYES
Trump's decision to keep the award particularly in front of his eyes, frequently showing it to the guests, and ensuring it was prominently featured in the photo frame were among the details discussed on social media. The symbolic placement in the Oval Office led to comments that it was "one of the awards Trump values the most."
MENTIONED AT THE UN GENERAL ASSEMBLY
U.S. President Donald Trump claimed in his speech to the United Nations (UN) General Assembly on September 23 that he had ended seven wars, arguing that the time for the Nobel Peace Prize had long come.
