5 of the Trump women’s most bizarre moments – from Melania’s awkward first lady exit and Ivanka’s high school flashing, to Tiffany’s attempted singing career

  • In an incident that could be straight out of Mean Girls, Ivanka reportedly blamed a fart on a classmate and dodged punishment for flashing a hot dog vendor
  • Ivanka also inexplicably tagged Meat Loaf in a photo with her dad Donald on Twitter, while Tiffany’s autotune-tastic attempt at a singing career was so weird it went viral

Being a wife or daughter of Donald Trump automatically puts you in the public eye. But when you get people’s attention for all the wrong reasons, perhaps that can’t be blamed on the outspoken former president.

Here are some of the weirdest things the Trump ladies have done in recent years.

1. Ivanka’s wild school days

According to Melania Trump’s former best friend and White House aide Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, Ivanka once tried to quash a Vanity Fair story from a high school friend who claimed Ivanka goaded her and a few other girls into “flashing our breasts out the window of our classroom”. The friend said that what has since been labelled the “flashing the hot dog man” incident saw Ivanka play ringleader, but she reportedly pleaded her innocence to the headmistress and got off scot-free while her friends were suspended.

While still working in the White House as a senior adviser to her father, she also reportedly worked hard to bury the 2020 story as it also included details of her blaming a fart on another student. Scandalous.

2. Ivanka tagging her dad as Meat Loaf on Twitter

No, not that type of meat loaf. This bizarre Ivanka moment didn’t involve a meaty meal, but rather the musician – real name Marvin Lee Aday. Ivanka baffled followers in January 2021 when she shared a snap on a private jet with her dad, only to tag him as the I Would Do Anything For Love singer. Although fans initially thought it was a mistake, they were even more confused when Ivanka didn’t remove or correct the tag (which still remains).

Meat Loaf became close to Donald and Ivanka – whom he once described as his closest confidante – after he appeared on The Apprentice back in 2011. However, he fell out with the former US president soon after when he was asked by a journalist if he thought Trump would make a good president. He responded by saying that if he (Meat Loaf) were president, he’d give his friend a role as a financial adviser instead. “He got so mad at me, furious!” he told The Express.

3. Tiffany launching a singing career

Tiffany has been an advocate for social justice ever since completing her law degree, and has held off on joining her family businesses to build her own career. But in early 2021, Tiffany wasn’t just trending online for choosing her father’s last day in office to announce her engagement

When clips from her attempt to launch a music career resurfaced, many thought the professional recording of her autotune-tastic track Like a Bird was the most bizarre thing the daughter of Donald Trump’s second wife Marla Maples had done to date. Tiffany even promoted the song during a 2011 appearance on the Oprah Winfrey Show and said she hoped to get serious about her career as a pop star one day.

4. Ivana’s touchy feely encounter with a model

Ivana has become known for her controversial comments, but it was her actions that surprised bystanders at a New York fashion show back in September. Donald’s first wife asked to feel the chest of former Russian spy-turned-model Aliia Roza – saying it’s “not sexual, it’s research”, according to the New York Post. While Roza laughed off the incident and called Ivana “funny,” it was still pretty odd.

5. Melania’s weird White House exit

Donald’s third wife gave the world plenty of memorable moments during her tenure as first lady, so it’s easy to forget her final bow. After exiting the White House for the last time and heading to Florida, Melania made no effort to hide her eagerness to go back to leading a private life.

After stepping off the plane in a show-stopping outfit, she awkwardly dodged joining the one-term president in front of the media and swiftly strutted away solo with no final goodbye.
