Influencers, tech bros and MMA fighters: Trump's inauguration guests

WATCH: Tech CEOs, Celebrities and Presidents – See Who’s at Trump’s Inauguration Ceremony

As well as the former presidents, family members and US officials you’d expect to see at Donald Trump’s inauguration, there are also a number of faces who are familiar for less traditional reasons.

We’ve seen OpenAI CEO Sam Altman take selfies with influencer brothers Logan and Jake Paul, and controversial Irish mixed martial arts fighter Conor McGregor chatting up British politician Nigel Farage.

Also in attendance are tech billionaires like Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg and Amazon’s Jeff Bezos, media tycoon Rupert Murdoch and FIFA president Gianni Infantino.

We’ll continue to spot notable and unusual names among the crowd as the day progresses.

tech billionaire

Trump’s close and controversial friendship with Ax boss Elon Musk is well known, but Musk isn’t the only tech leader at Monday’s inauguration.

Mark Zuckerberg, who earlier this month announced plans to rid Meta of factcheckers and “dramatically reduce the amount of censorship” on its platforms, is also in attendance.

Rupert Murdoch, chairman emeritus of News Corporation, which owns Fox News, The Wall Street Journal, The Sun and The Times, is attending with his fifth wife, Elena Zhukova.

Mr Murdoch, 93, married a retired Russian biologist in a ceremony at his Californian vineyard last year.

Politician and former President

As is customary at presidential inaugurations, several former US presidents attend.

Much has been made in the media about why Michelle Obama, who attended the first Trump inauguration in 2017, was not accompanied by her husband Barack to Monday’s event.

There along with Obama, who was in power before Trump’s last term began, are former presidents including Bill Clinton and George W. Bush.
