A rare mix of global celebrity, politics and sports lit up Washington as Cristiano Ronaldo, Elon Musk, FIFA President Gianni Infantino, Georgina Rodríguez and several other high-profile figures appeared together in a new selfie from the White House. The viral picture was taken during a special dinner hosted by U.S. President Donald Trump, who is currently serving as the 47th President of the United States.
The event brought together some of the most influential names from around the world. Ronaldo, who has become one of Saudi Arabia’s biggest sporting ambassadors through his stint with Al-Nassr, travelled to Washington for the high-profile gathering that also included Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. The evening instantly captured global attention, not only because of the star-studded guest list but also due to the geopolitical and sporting significance behind the meeting.
As per reports, Ronaldo was seated prominently in the East Room, where Trump personally acknowledged him and even mentioned how his son Barron is a big admirer of the Portuguese star. The presence of FIFA President Gianni Infantino added even more weight to the night, especially as Saudi Arabia prepares for its massive role in hosting global football events in the coming years. Georgina Rodríguez joined Ronaldo, drawing considerable media attention for her appearance at the diplomatic-celebrity crossover event.
