AFTER A TWO-YEAR HIATUS, THE WHITE HOUSE PRESS DINNER RETURNS

  • 01/05/2022

US President Joe Biden has resumed the tradition of speaking at the annual White House Correspondents' Dinner after a six-year presidential hiatus. He is the first leader to appear at the event since 2016, where the president gets mocked by a friendly audience of journalists.


It was postponed for two years owing to the epidemic, and Donald Trump boycotted it when he was president. The event was hosted by Trevor Noah, a comedian and The Daily Show presenter.

Celebrities mingled with prominent journalists and high-ranking US politicians at the gala, which has been held since 1921. Among the celebrities in attendance were Kim Kardashian, Pete Davidson, Drew Barrymore, and Chris Tucker.
