A controversy has gripped the internet after a new video emerged showing US President Joe Biden offering 'dating' advice to a young girl. The video shows a few people were taking a picture with President Biden, who held the shoulder of the young girl and told her not to date any serious men until she turns 30. President Biden was heard saying that he had shared the same advice with his daughters and granddaughters.



President Biden's unsolicited dating advice videos, shared by Kalen D'Almeida, set the internet on fire, inviting polarising views. President Biden's controversial remarks came during a meet and greet session at an Irvine Valley Community College event. The girl was taken aback by Biden’s advice and replied that she’d keep it in her mind before ending up laughing.


The video gained over 5.2 million views on Twitter and was retweeted more than 16,000 times. Several netizens commented that Biden made the girl 'uncomfortable', while many said that the video was blown out of proportion. Kalen, who shot the video himself, wrote in the thread that the girl felt uncomfortable and that the secret servicemen stopped him from shooting.
