The clip racked up over 1.2 million views in just 15 hours. The response was a mix of compliments from her fanbase and the inevitable backlash.
Kai isn't just a regular teenager but a talented and confident golfer who holds #1 ranking in high school girls' golf.
Her grandfather President Trump, an avid golfer himself, has often praised her impressive skills on the course.
Off the course, these videos show Kai's fun-loving side as she lets her hair down and enjoys being a typical teen with rhythm and flair.
While many celebrated her confidence and dubbed her the 'Queen of America,' others criticized the video's tone, with some calling it 'inappropriate' for someone so closely tied to political power.

One comment read, 'I think grandpa will have a talk with her. Decent, classy young ladies do not post things such as this.' But supporters were quick to shut down the criticism, defending her as a normal teenager simply enjoying a moment. 'She's a teenager, she's doing what kids do,' one user wrote. 'Let the kid be a kid,' echoed another.
"I mean MAGA would have flipped the fuck out if an Obama girl sang 'Promiscuous Girl,' while their dad was President," a comment read.
"Her grandfather I am sure isn't pleased. Btw, now you know why Barron isn't out there in the public eye," wrote another user. "Umm it's not smart to post while your grandpa is the President," another comment read. "he's a teenager, she's doing what kids do. There's nothing harmful in this?" another one wrote.
It has been a while since Kai has been winning heart. In the 2024 Republican National Convention, she charmed the audience with a heartfelt speech about her grandfather. Since then, she's built a strong social media presence, launched a YouTube channel, and documented everything from White House visits to golf games with elite athletes like Rory McIlroy.
Kai Trump is growing up under a spotlight, but she's handling the heat with poise and personality.

Who is Natalie Reynolds and was the OnlyFans star arrested? Truth behind viral video
A video has gone viral on social media, especially TikTok, in the United States, which shows influencer and OnlyFans content creator Natalie Reynolds apparently being arrested in Miami, Florida. The video has garnered millions of views, making many believe that Reynolds has been nabbed by the police. However, the video is most likely staged. Natalie Reynolds in the arrest video (L) and Natalie Reynolds. (Natalie Reynolds) In the video, Reynolds can be seen being handcuffed by a police officer against a police car before she is taken inside the car, allegedly to be transported to the station. Or at least that's the impression the video gives. The rumor that she was arrested for supposedly trying to film an OnlyFans video in public. However, on noticing carefully, one sees many inconsistencies with the video. First up, the police have only 'Police' retained on the uniform, without any mention of the department. There are also no arrest records in Miami showing that the influencer was taken in. Besides, Reynolds is known for pulling off elaborate pranks on social media. As a result, it is likely that the video is also one such prank. Here's the video: Who is Natalie Reynolds? Another rumor that has simultaneously gone viral on social media claims that Natalie Reynolds is the daughter of Hollywood star Ryan Reynolds. However, that rumor is as baseless as it gets, as Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively have four daughters, James, Inez, Betty, and Olan. Also read: Who is Tatiana Martinez? TikTok star's violent ICE arrest caught on video- Watch So, who is Natalie Reynolds? Well, Natalie Reynolds is a TikToker and OnlyFans creator who has a significant presence across platforms. On TikTok, she has close to one million followers, while on Instagram, she has over 322,000. She became viral with a video where she was seen crying in front of the TikTok headquarters in Los Angeles. The stunt was motivated by a ban that the Byte Dance-owned platform implemented on her, and she said she was there to plead her case with TikTok. Though she said the ban was the result of rivalry with other creators, people online thought that was not the case.

Tom Holland takes cooking lessons from brother Sam to impress fiancée Zendaya
\When fiancée Zendaya is on set, Tom Holland alternates in the kitchen. To keep him from crashing and burning while attempting to put dinner on the table, his brother, Sam Holland, who is also a chef, has been giving him recipes. People report that 25-year-old Sam recently published his new cookbook, Kitchen Kickstart. Sam told The Times that while Zendaya was filming in Boston, he made sure his famous sister had some simple meals prepared. He took special care with the vegetarian options, knowing Zendaya follows a plant-based diet, and sent the recipes to Tom, who was handling dinner duties during her shoot. Sam said Tom went through each recipe and enjoyed them thoroughly. The culinary expertise of the Holland brothers Sam joked that even his own family can manage his cooking. He noted that Tom, his twin Harry, 26, and their younger brother Paddy, 20, are likely all just beginner-level cooks. Tom, however, isn't willing to give up the kitchen himself. On the Dish podcast with Nick Grimshaw and Angela Hartnett last December, he shared that he enjoys cooking and has been exploring more vegetarian dishes, partly because his girlfriend follows a vegetarian diet. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Prestige White Meadows: Sky Villas in Whitefield Prestige White Meadows Learn More Undo While some meals did well, others didn't Tom explained that while Zendaya was working in Boston, he had been cooking most of the time.
