The six-year-old son of a US representative became a hit with news junkies after videos of him making hilarious faces during his father’s speech in the House of Representatives went viral.
On June 3, Representative John Rose of Tennessee took his young son Guy to the Capitol, where he stole the show by sticking out his tongue as his father spoke out against former President Donald Trump’s recent convictions on 34 counts of falsifying company details. related to a hush money payment during the 2016 presidential election.
This is what I get when I tell my son Guy to smile at the camera for his little brother 🤷♂️ https://t.co/L8sLBDJt35

In a video posted to X by C-SPAN, Rose speaks while unaware that young Guy is behind him, robbing the camera.
Guy starts his show by grinning at the camera before sticking out his tongue and rolling his eyes upward. At other points the restless child is busy making different shapes with his hands.
He also plays with a green squeeze toy and waves directly at the camera.
“This is what I get for telling my son Guy to smile for the camera for his little brother,” Rose wrote alongside C-SPAN’s video while sharing it with his own followers on X.
According to his official website, Rose shares Guy and a youngest son, Sam, with his wife Chelsea.
Guy’s new fans celebrated his star-making C-SPAN debut on X.
“He found the camera immediately, lol,” wrote one.
“Kiddo is cute,” said another.
Others compared the little boy’s adorable antics to former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani’s son, Andrew, who at age 7 made New Yorkers laugh when he upstaged his father’s inaugural address in January 1994 by waving to the crowd and blowing kisses.
The younger Giuliani, who also splashed his father’s legs with cold water after knocking over a water pitcher, inspired a hilarious “Saturday Night Live” skit starring Chris Farley as him and Kevin Nealon as his politician father.
