Ooh la la! Biden's first state dinner brings out glamour and guests galorePolitico, Dec 1, 2022
Early arriving guests included late-night TV host — and Batiste’s former boss — Stephen Colbert and “Veep” actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who was asked by reporters as she was walked by whether she had ever attended a state dinner before. (She had!)
Others on the guest list included journalists Robin Roberts, Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough; and lawmakers such as House minority leader Kevin McCarthy and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. It also included celebrity power couple John Legend and Chrissy Teigen; Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour; actress Jennifer Garner and her daughter, Violet Affleck; Academy-Award winner Ariana DeBose; and director Bazmark Luhrmann.
Two of the president’s children, Hunter Biden and Ashley Biden, as well as his sister, Valerie Biden, were expected to attend.
