Rising country music sensation Warren Zeiders had a moment to remember this week, visiting President Donald Trump in the Oval Office. The “Pretty Little Poison” singer joked with fans afterward that he “didn’t know what to do with his hands” during the official photo op, clearly humbled by the opportunity.
President Trump has publicly praised Zeiders in the past, calling him “FANTASTIC” in an April post on Truth Social and encouraging supporters to attend his concerts. The meeting marks a major moment for Zeiders, who has rocketed to country stardom over the past year.
Zeiders gained national attention with his breakout hit “Pretty Little Poison” in 2024, transitioning from playing to crowds of a few hundred to selling out arenas packed with over 50,000 fans. The former car salesman first built his audience by posting covers on social media, eventually releasing his debut album Relapse, Lies, & Betrayal last August. The album immediately produced a number-one hit, launching his career into high gear.
The Pennsylvania native has openly credited his success to divine intervention. In an April appearance on Fox & Friends Weekend, Zeiders stated, “It’s God’s favor,” adding, “He’s given me a platform to touch other people’s lives… It’s a blessing and it’s God’s grace.”
The meeting with President Trump further cements Zeiders’ standing as a voice for traditional values in country music, proudly acknowledging faith, hard work, and gratitude at the core of his journey. His growing fan base and increasing mainstream appeal mark him as a rising figure not only in music but also in the broader American cultural landscape.
