Rubio goes viral on social media for DJing at a family wedding

Secretary of State Marco Rubio has gone viral — not for his diplomacy, but for showing up behind a DJ booth at a family wedding and getting the crowd excited in a clip shared online that’s quickly gaining attention.

The video, posted by White House Deputy Chief of Staff Dan Scavino on X, shows Rubio wearing headphones and standing behind a DJ setup, leaning over the controls as music plays and guests dance nearby.

At several points, he pumps his fist, nods his head to the beat and appears to point to the next song, drawing cheers from those gathered around the booth.

“Moments ago, behind the scenes—The weddings of our great Secretary of State @MarcoRubio DJ too! Here he is in action tonight at a family wedding…Let’s go!!!” Scavino wrote in the post.

The unexpected scene set social media ablaze, with users reacting to the unusual sight of a serving US secretary of state taking on DJ duties at what appears to be a family party.
