KE HUAY QUAN CLICKS ‘SELFIE OF THE SELFIES’ WITH PRESIDENT BIDEN
Ke Huay Quan and American President Joe Biden had a great encounter in the White House. President Biden posted a video with Quan where the latter can be seen introducing his wife, Echo, to Biden. Quan also shared his love for selfies and then proceeded to ask President Biden if he is ready for the ‘selfie of the selfies’. Little did he know that the Pesident of America is a fan of selfies himself!
Sharing the same, Quan wrote, “Guess who also loves a great selfie?!?! @Potus What an amazing trip this has been. We premiered #AmericanBornChinese at Radio City Music Hall and then took the show to D.C. for a White House screening. It was so special to premiere the show during Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. I can’t believe I got the opportunity to introduce the President. Thank you to President Biden and the White House for having us. American Born Chinese begins streaming on @DisneyPlus on May 24th (sic)”.
Another excerpt from their meeting was uploaded by President Biden himself. The video posted by the President of the United States was captioned, “Little did Ke know he was dealing with a selfie expert (sic)”.
