A video of US Secretary of State Marco Rubio appearing to DJ at a wedding has gone viral, showing the senior Trump administration official energizing partygoers as he handled the music decks.
Video shared by White House deputy chief of staff
The footage was shared on X by White House deputy chief of staff Dan Scavino. It shows Rubio wearing headphones and leaning over DJ equipment while electronic dance music plays. Guests can be seen dancing on the floor as the music builds.
"MOMENTS AGO, BEHIND THE SCENES," Scavino wrote. "Our Great Secretary of State Marco Rubio DJs weddings too!"
"Let's goooooo!!!" he added.
Scavino said Rubio was "in action tonight at a family wedding." Rubio has been jokingly dubbed the "Secretary of Everything."
Rubio's DJ set details
In the clip, Rubio appears engaged with the music, at one point gesturing as if to adjust the tempo while the track "Shiver" by John Summit and HAYLA plays, according to the Daily Mail. He is also seen fist-pumping and the crowd reacts with the same energy.
Reactions to the viral moment
Rubio currently serves as secretary of state and has also been linked with other senior responsibilities in the Trump administration, including national security duties. The video went viral, with some people praising the light-hearted moment while others criticized it, pointing to ongoing global tensions and policy challenges faced by the administration. Critics questioned the timing of the appearance, while supporters said it was simply a private celebration. Some users also said it showed Rubio's versatility and ability to connect with people outside formal politics.
Rubio's rising political profile
The Florida Republican has recently seen his profile rise within the MAGA circles, with some polling indicating that he could become a potential future presidential contender.
Rubio's appearance behind the DJ booth comes amid other viral moments involving senior US political figures, including President Donald Trump, who recently joked about his own dance routines during a public event in Florida.
At the same time, the White House continues to focus on foreign policy, particularly in relation to ongoing tensions involving Iran and Latin America, areas where Rubio has played a visible role.
